LeahRB Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I have not come across anything that smells even close. Did anyone keep some? Fragrance Buddy seems to dupe quite a few for people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kandlekrazy Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Never found one even close! I think we need a poll with all Bert's fo's and what replacement has been found as this question continues to get asked for one or more of her scents.I sort of gave up on the Dark Chocolate Mint, nobody's come anywhere near it. The rest I wanted to keep I replaced with something similar, some I renamed to protect the innocent! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8-GRAN-ONES Posted May 4, 2015 Author Share Posted May 4, 2015 Another one I love is. .Fall Harvest..And have tried several. .that sound close. .but they are not close at all. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Redwood and Cedar sounds like a terrific scent combo. I lived in Calif and many times went to see the redwoods in Northern Cali. There are no other trees that smell like a redwood. My absolute favorite wood scent. If you ever find or hear of a FO with redwood I would be very interested in it too!

LeahRB Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 I tried the Redwood fo from Aroma Haven, and although I usually have good look with their fos, this fragrance was way too light in wax. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 I knew I had seen something with redwood notes in it. Soapalooza carries Big Sur with cedar, redwood, eucalyptus, and oakmoss. Sounds heavenly. Will have to pick up a sample of this. She gives soy ratings on her oils too and it says its excellent in soy. Here is the link: http://soapalooza.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=5&products_id=74 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharig Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 has anyone even heard from Bert? I haven't heard from her since about 6 mos after she closed up shop...I hope she is doing well! and would love to pick her brain as to where she was able to get her fo's from...just to lead us in the right direction...there is so many people that loved her scents and we all hang on to them... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
number2of7 Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 I'm about to make your day. The dupe is at Fragrance Buddy. It's called Forest Nymph. You're welcome Moonworks got the dupe of Bert's Redwood & Cedar back in the day. She called it Forest Nymph. When she went out of business, Fragrance Buddy duped her dupe. So, yes, there are mild differences to it, but overall, it's the same oil. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pam W Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 I've still got a few ounces of Bert's Redwood & Cedar stashed away. It was so strong I only used it in itty-bitty amounts as a mixer. (I'll give up my stash when its pryed from my cold, dead hands) hehehehe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8-GRAN-ONES Posted May 14, 2015 Author Share Posted May 14, 2015 (edited) I have not tried FB to see how it compares to berts..but have read it is strong with eucalyptus..I still have some of berts. .i might buy an oz. To see how they are. .Has anyone tried it to compair? Edited May 14, 2015 by 8-GRAN-ONES Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shar Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 I srill have some of MW Forest Nymph, and imo it is not an accurate dupe of Berts Redwood & Cedar. I agree that Forest Nymph is a little heavy on the Eucalyptus in comparison. I sure do miss Bert's oils! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8-GRAN-ONES Posted May 15, 2015 Author Share Posted May 15, 2015 I wonder if someone like pure oils would duplicate it?I love my candles made with it. .it has an incredible HT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shar Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Checked my curing soaps and they have great scent retention. I also scented some koh liquid soap with redwood and cedar and it didn't thicken or cause it to gel like some fo's will. Smells great!
