Thanks for your suggestions! I actually do have Chestnuts and Brown Sugar and love it! I also like ICS's version of it too. I think it might be a little sweeter than the one from JS. I just bought two 16 oz bottles of Sugar Cookie Royale too. I love that FO but for some reason it reminds me of JS buttercream sugar cookie or NG's sugar cookie or sugar cookie brûlée. They all smell great! I just need to get a tart of all three side by side and see if they might be fragrance twins or if they smell different enough to keep buying all three! They are all really good though. Haven't tried the others you recommended but they sound really good! Sorry you don't like Fall/bakery scents. I love them! It's been hard for me to do things out of anything but those kind of scents! LOL! Some people say they make them hungry and I don't need that for sure! ) THanks again! Belinda

Thanks! I'll definitely have to try that one!

I noticed that JS is having another sale and thought I would start buying some new Fall and Christmas scents. Any recommendations? Recommendations for Fall/Winter scents from any other supplier will be appreciated too! Thanks! Belinda

It's funny you should mention Daystar! I met Stacy for the first time today. Her son goes to the school where I work. She's been bringing my order to school but leaving it with our secretary so I had never met her till today! I was thinking I needed to order some oils from her before school was out but too late now. She's only about ten miles from me so it won't be hard to get them. now I'll have to give her Cake Bake a try! Love her Blackberry Butter Jam Cookies! Belinda

That is so sweet of you! That would be great! I will gladly pay for it or pay shipping. I'll send you a pm with my address.

I've only used TCS butt naked but am reading good things about NG's. Has anyone smelled both of these and which do you prefer? TCS's smells really good so I don't know why I'm even searching for another one! I'm about out and just thought I might try a different one since I need to order soon. Thanks! Belinda

Thanks for everyone's input! I actually do have some vanilla hazelnut, don't think it's from CS so I might have to order some of theirs. I bought a bottle of toasted hazelnut from JS and it's really good! I may have to try the one from SOS and RE too! What's one more bottle of Fo, right? LOL! Belinda

I love toasted marshmallow but to me the one from RE doesn't smell a whole lot like a toasted marshmallow! I love the smell though. I bought TM from Wellington (first place i ordered from) and it smells so good but it's very weak. Where do you get campfire? That sounds interesting. That would probably make it smell more toasted! Belinda

I've ordered several from the candlemakers store but haven't poured very many. I really don't like the fact they have no descriptions of the scents listed. I bought one called weathered crow and love it (smells like one of those "primitive" scents) but it seems light to me even though I bought gradeA. Could be the wax though. I haven't poured it since I started using 4625 with container wax. In fact I think I poured it in TCS wax and wasn't impressed with it.

Well let me ask you this then since summer will be here and gone sooner than we think, what are your favorite fall/bakery scents? I just got some funnel cake in from Re and it smells so good OOB! I love Houston Candle Supply's banana nut bread. You can really smell the bread in there and not just banana. That's just a couple of my favorites though. Hazelnut is another one and cinnamon buns type scents. Belinda

Thank you both! I'm a fall/bakery person too. Even in the summer I always had banana nut bread or some kind of cake scent going but I've had requests for some summer scents. Today I poured Coconut Butter and Pineapple Souflee from Aztec and they smell really good! just not something I would've picked if I were buying for myself. Belinda

I've been buying a lot of tropical scents the last few weeks and just wondered what your favorite or best selling summer scents are since this is my first summer to do this! Thanks! Belinda

I've poured wranglers and it smells just like you're in a western store with all the new jeans around you! Not particularly my kind of scent but here in Texas stuff like that and leather and leather blends go over good. I've also poured White chocolate macadamia nut cookies and it smells really good too! I like bakery scents the best but like tropical and berry too. Let us know your results! I'm especially anxious to hear how you like cake batter, tangled in barbed wire, good looking cowboy and arabian nights!

Thanks! I'll have to give that one a try. I poured JS toasted hazelnut and it smells really good. I'll have to take it to work to see how good it throws. Kind of hard to smell here at the house sometimes when there are so many scents wafting out of my craft room! The hazelnut I bought from the candle source doesn't have much scent at all. I was pretty disappointed in that one and thought it would be good since most of what I've bought from them has been. Belinda

Which samples did you get from Daystar? Will you share your results when you test them please!

I have a sample of that Fo! I may have to pour it today! Belinda

Just let me know! Also, if there are some samples of JS that you want to try, let me know. I have quite a few here that I'm probably never going to use and I hate to see them just sit around when someone might want to see what they smell like! Belinda

I agree, to me it has a sweet creamed corn scent. NG's has a little more vanilla in it to my nose. But to be fair to RE, I went and looked at the sample bottle I have of theirs and I haven't put it in wax yet so my observation isn't really a fair one. I smelled both again and to me OOB NG's is a better smelling scent, very similar but a little stronger and with more vanilla. It could all change once I get both in wax though! ) Belinda

Same here Karen! I've been wanting to find a white cake or birthday cake that smells like some of the birthday cake candles in the stores that smell so good but it seems like the ones I've tried have a plastic smell to them. RE's smells good (and I haven't put it in wax yet) but I'm not picking up much cake OOB. Belinda

It's scrolling across the top in very small print and highlighted in pink after the "We are closed memorial day etc scrolls by.. It's buy 5 4 ounce bottles and get $1.50 off each or get $1.50 off each 1lb bottle with a $50 minimum order. You can use both codes. HTH Belinda

I've bought from Rustic Escentuals and NG and to me NG's is a little stronger. I don't think ICS carries it anymore, or she didn't the last time I checked. Belinda

Don't mean to enable either one of you, but she's having a sale right now! ) I like sweet scents too and some that I have from JS that I love are buttercream sugar cookie, vanilla buttercream crunch, cream brulee cupcake. That's all I can think of off the top of my head! I can send a sample if either of you would like to try any of these! Belinda

LOL! And I'm jealous of those that can go into Candelwic or other places that have store fronts! I guess I'm hard to please but it really detrimental to my checking account to have so many FO's so close to me! LOL!

Is CS Candle Science? I think I may have some with vanilla. I'll have to check. Thanks! Belinda

Thanks! Their's is one that I haven't tried. I'll have to wait till I need wax to order from them though. Thanks again! Belinda
