SimplyLit Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 I use Candle Science for many of my FOs, however I just don't like their Pumpkin Pie or Pumpkin Souffle scents...both smell burnt to me and not very Pumpkin like, which was a HUGE bummer since Pumpkin is one of my favorite Fall scents. I was thinking of trying one from The Flaming Candle, but figured I'd reach out on here first to see if anyone had any suggestions or recommendations. Thanks!

GailC Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Pumpkin Souffle from CS has been one of my most popular fragrances since I started making candles in 2009. Not to mention the strongest. I used to love it myself, but last fall it started getting on my nerves. If that makes sense. I know it isn't Pumpkin Pie, but I ordered Pumpkin Chai from Candlewic, and love it OOB. Will have to wait till this fall to see if customers do. Today I got a bottle of Pumpkin Cupcake from Fragrance Buddy. I basically bought it because it was $8.00 a pound. But boy, it smells good OOB. None of that answered your question I know. I just stick with Pumpkin Souffle and sometimes blend it with Pumpkin Spice and a little Cinnamon since customers love it so much.

kandlekrazy Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Pumpkin souffle is very strong in C3, can't imagine it not throwing in any wax. I personally don't like pumpkin or heavy vanilla so this one gags me but I sell a ton of it in the fall. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bought a few 4 ouncers also, but haven't bought anything from them since. If my fragrance oil cabinet wasn't totally full, I would consider the Pumpkin Cream Brulee, and still might this fall. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like perfumy type FO's. But that is the only kind I made for my granddaughter for awhile. She has branched out now though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
