Candybee Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 I used to visit the redwood forests in northern California every year when I was growing up. I sure do miss the scent of the redwoods. Nothing beats the scent of a redwood forest and the wood!! Now I am intrigued. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8-GRAN-ONES Posted August 23, 2015 Author Share Posted August 23, 2015 I am so glad you told me about Tennessee duping this scent barb..It is fantastic. .Do you think they would dupe. .Berts.. fall harvest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8-GRAN-ONES Posted August 23, 2015 Author Share Posted August 23, 2015 About how it smells..Think of a cedar chest..Then think of the redwoods outside. .with a touch of freshness of cedar. .then something else that just rounds it out to wonderful..I am not to good at describing. .but there you have it. .I would suggest getting a sample and trying it. . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeggyK Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Is this a scent that you think could be renamed to "Rainforest"? (or in the right direction to come up with a blend for a rainforest?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbara AL Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Candybee over a bottle of liquid Gold Dial soap and imagine it smelling 10 times stronger that is what Redwood Cedar smells,like to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barbara AL Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Redwood Cedar Fresh Air and a touch of eucalyptus is how I would describe it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackbenimble Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 So if I'm looking for a true cedar scent. Is this the going to smell like that or more of a foresty fresh scent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8-GRAN-ONES Posted September 11, 2015 Author Share Posted September 11, 2015 to my nose it is a true cedar smell...very nice...if you like the wooden cedar scent drawer refreshers, you will love this..get 1 oz. try it..that way you don't have much invested if you don't like it.

I think I'll get a some to try. Btw how does Peaks Cedarwood compare? I'm just worried if I get this and have success that Tenn Candle will somehow discontinue selling it.

8-GRAN-ONES Posted September 12, 2015 Author Share Posted September 12, 2015 (edited) i personally think, the more that try it...they will love it..if it is a good seller ( praying it will be) i sure they won't discontinue it.But we take that chance on any fragrance oil we buy. edited to say....i have not ever tried Peaks..
