I'll put these in product next week and see how they do. The labels are super plain, just the FO name and a bar code, which is a bit strange. Anyway, I got: Welcome Home - not a fan at all, but it is strong. I have a feeling it will change in wax. I hope. It's pungent. Bamboo Rain - appears to be a good bamboo OOB. Nothing overly exciting. Birthday Cake - it's definitely birthday cake. I can't complain. Juniper & Aloe - this one is very nice. I'm soaping it ASAP. I'm waiting on Pumpkin Caramel and Gardenberry. I needed some birthday cake for a custom candle blend so I also ordered it. I'm glad you like Juniper and Aloe because I ordered it too, as well as Pumpkin Caramel. Haven't received any yet, but at least they've been shipped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I to found myself wanting to order from this EAP innovation co. I noticed they do not have many oils & most are in clearance for $10 a pound .I will wait & see how these work out from the other 2 enablers lol...I have done enough damage with FB & WSP over the weekend .I also have a pending order from Oregan Trails ,this one I just have to try ,so many hard to find fragrances .It's so easy to find a excuse to order right . 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First I renamed it Ocean Mist or something like that, then I named it Mendocino Bay because that place is special to me. (In Northern California.) I like all ocean smells, and this is one of the best I think. I just went and sniffed it and seems like you can really smell the salty sea air. Although I have little experience smelling salty sea air. I live in central Indiana. I made Seaside from Nature's Garden today, and I like it too. Their description says it has fruit in it, but I don't smell any. I am not so good at describing fragrances, but I think Sea Witch smells a little more 'oceany' than Seaside. Gail ,If you love STRONG salty air scents , definitely try Flamings Sea Salt Blossom .This stuff will fill up the whole house & the neighbors can smell it across the street when I pour this one .Lol seriously super strong scent & very salty .Sorry to enable again ,just had to tell you about this one. This scent is great for customers that prefer Super duper STRONG aromas 😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have only bought 4 kinds of FO from them so far. I just have to buy at least one pound of fragrance oil when I buy jars, because just getting a shipment of jars is boring. So far I have bought Chai, Lemon Verbena, Redwood and Cedar and Vanilla Bean Noel. I like them all. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could give you a long list of FO's I have that I haven't put in wax yet. Plus I always need to make more of what the customers want. Plus, I have samples from other companies that I love and want to order one of these days. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ncraiders Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 I am not getting on any fragrance site atm. i don't need to buy more sample oils. I don't make anything off my hobby other than candles that i know what is in. It would be nice to make some money selling some candles but that is a long ways off i need to get my wax down first and that is gonna take a while.

I was looking for a certain bottle of fragrance oil today and guess what I found? I totally forgot that I had bought a pound of Bayside Marina from Aztec the last time I ordered from them. So I don't need any more Sea Witch yet, until I use the rest of what I have, plus the rest of Seaside from NG, plus a whole bottle of Bayside Marina. That one is another ocean favorite of mine but I had been out for awhile. Yay me! I didn't order. Instead I ordered 3 dresses online.

Trappeur Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Well I'm figuring up an order for Fragrance Buddy to get the free shipping..... So far I have: Cinnamon Broom....I have to have that for my regular stores Cinnamon Pumpkin Souffle Cinnamon Red hots Caramel Pumpkin Swirl PPW Christmas Cabin....oh my does the description sound so ever nice..."Fir needles, orange spice and other spices" Apple Cider Coconut Milk....I've been eyeing this type fragrance for such a long long time....I imagine it must be pretty light I'm thinking...wonder if anyone has ever tried it? Cranberry Apple Marmalade.... Geesh I've only gotten to the C's and it's 11:30 right now and I only have 1/2 hour b/4 the sale ends...Might have to change some of these things to 8ouncers as I'm only spending 100.00 that I don't have....darn, darn!...but free shipping when I hit 100.00!

I still won't need anything by then. Bayside Marina is nothing like Sea Witch. If you read the scent description, there are a lot more notes, like grapefruit and agave nectar. It's more like NG's Seaside. Sea Witch is just the ocean, salty sea air. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My granddaughter loves this one. If I had ordered, I was going to get Caramel Pumpkin Swirl. I will one of these days. Let me know what you think of Vanilla Bean Nectarine when you get it.....it sounds so good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trapp ,you sure grabbed some good ones . I took a chance on This Old House ,sounds so good .I also grabbed Pumpkin Cider along with my regulars I was getting low on. I thought I would try a couple of Fall scents early this year .I think you made some great scent choices Vanilla bean Nectarine is wonderful .Lol Vanillary I cannot stand .It's on my most horrible scent list,maybe I received a bad batch years ago idk.Let me know your opinion when you try this one .American cream sounds awesome. I look forward to your reviews.Pretty sure FB has a July 4th sale as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love Sea witch ! 😀 I'm glad you like Sea Witch. I have This Old House, but have never used it. There is something about it I don't much like OOB, like a smoky smell or something. But I should give it a chance and put it in wax. What else did you get? I did get 3 new close out (cheap!) FO's from EAP when I ordered wax. Finally got my order a couple of days ago, and I like them all OOB. Birthday Cake is nice and strong, Caramel Pumpkin is yummy, and Juniper & Aloe is nice too. I was afraid to order more, because sometimes you get what you pay for. I have 3 FO's in my cart at Rustic Escentuals I really want to order. No sale, no free shipping, but sometimes you just want what you want. It never ends. The struggle is real. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes love Sea witch ,so unique & strong OOB.I ordered some of my regulars Fairy Garden, Mulberry, Dreamsicle, Jelly Bean, Pink Chiffon, Beach, PPW .The new ones I got Tomato vine,Pumpkin Cider, This old House ,Banana nut bread ,Sea witch ,Mango peach Salsa,Bird of Paradise.The banana nut bread is Moonworks type ,so hope to get great throw with this one.I have yet to find a good Banana nut bread scent,hoping for the best in my wax on this one. I like all oob on the new ones I ordered.The tomato vine smells very nice oob .Gosh I looked at EAP & never paid for the ones in my cart lol, you have me tempted once again to try the ones you purchased.The Juniper aloe sounds really nice .I use Aztecs BD Cake & for some reason it is a huge seller ,kinda stinks to me lol. I have tried other BD cakes & none as strong as Aztecs,for me anyways ...Think I will give EAP a try ,knowing this will disappear soon idk if I should or not .I filled my cart a couple weeks ago I & did not check out .Lol I am so slow at making final decisions on on Fragrance oils .Maybe I should just grab a few pounds of the Juniper aloe & Pumpkin caramel right ,2 or 3 pounds of each should last a long while. Did you get the Cierra email on clearance scents ? Sorry to enable on this sale , great bargains on some of their clearance oils .I have only used a few from Cierra in the past ,very few , not wanting to add another supplier .I already jumped in on Oregan Trails .I was late getting this order to my final decisions .I am curious what you ordered from RE? I have managed to stay way from this company ,so far. .I know I will be totally sucked in , should I ever place my first order lol .This oil addiction has gotten out of hand lately ,so very hard to stay away from great sales . I do like FB This old House oob .It has a apple pie ,apple cider scent in the background of the old house smell .Kinda like sitting in Granny's old farmhouse with a slice of Apple pie & a splash of cider .It has just the right mount of bakery apple to tone down the musky background .I do think this one has some vanilla notes as well .I will look at the description. I did not mean to write you a book Gail ,lol I start writing & sometimes I do not realize just how long I carry on .Oh forgot to say ,I purchased a few of Peaks type during FB sale ,only samples to test first 😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GailC Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 @katmeltswax, don't apologize for your long response. I love to talk about fragrance oils to anyone who will listen. And hear what others have to sat about the FO's they like and don't like. I can help you resist EAP. Looks like they are out of Juniper and Aloe. Wasn't in the close outs any more and I did a search and came up with nothing. Too bad I didn't get the description. They are having another sale. Here are the details. You have to place a large order though Free Shipping for all orders over $150! (see below for exclusions) Enter promo code "summer18" to receive this special promotion. * Some exclusions apply * Not valid for "special order" items * Not valid for pre-existing orders * Valid for WEB orders only * Limit 1 use per customer * Offer expires at midnight on Monday June 4th, 2018 OR Enter promo code "june18" to receive 15% off your total purchase for orders greater than $100. * Valid for WEB orders only * Not valid for pre-existing orders * Limit 4 uses per customer * Offer expires on June 21st, 2018 I did get Cierra's email, but I didn't see any specials on FO's, so I didn't know what they were referring to. Just the half off soap molds. I will look again. But I don't NEED anything from there. I need more Spiced Pumpkin Latte from RE, and I'm almost out of Caramel Café. Those are both wonderful coffee fragrances. I got samples of Caribbean Day Spa and Tuscan Fields last fall, and loved both of them. They are in my cart, but I haven't ordered yet. I also love the sample of Danish Butter Cookie I have but I still have lots of Cookie FO's. RE doesn't have great sales like Aztec and FB and their FO's are more pricey. I am a cheapskate so mostly order their $17.95 Fragrances. Still more than I usually pay, but the scents I like are worth it. Like Baked Apple (Home Interiors type), and Da Lime in Da Coconut. I bought that one mostly because of the name. Celtic Moonspice is good too. I have bought others there I like but they didn't 'blow me away' so I probably won't reorder. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfroberts Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 Testing EAP FO's in wax, and here's what I got: Birthday Cake - strong HT in 4630. Typical of other Birthday Cake FOs. Welcome Home - more palatable in wax, thank goodness. Hated it OOB. It's fruity and bakery...like a pie, sans spicy. It's growing on me, will sell here for sure. Strong HT in 4630. Very dark oil, which sucks b/c I don't use dye and it looks kinda gross. Oh well. Gardenberry - I poured in gg palm. Strong HT. This is a strong herbal, I'm not getting berry. I smell violet, maybe a bit of sage. This won't appeal to my customers, but it will be a nice herbal for blending. Pumpkin Caramel - I'm gonna like this one. More straight pumpkin than a spicy pumpkin. Haven't burned, strong CT. Bamboo Rain - strong in 4630. Mostly like other bamboos. Better than some. For what it's worth, I bought these off Amazon, not the EAP website. The FO"s were $19.99 shipped with Prime, buy one get one free. So 2# shipped for $19.99. That promotion is over now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darn I missed the Prime deal ,what a bargain.I always forget to check Amazon for oils .I have heard of great deals found on this site .Thanks for the EAP review in the 4630 ,I happen to use this wax ,great tip so glad to hear your results 😀I would probably love the Gardenberry to blend with tomato vine or cool cucumber ,love the garden type aromas .Welcome home sounds like another one for me .I just received This old House from FB ,love this one oob,sounds similiar .Thank you for the review .
