  1. Great ideas! I would have never thought of leather! I have many bakery scents, will have to see if i have shortbread. I also have many different lemon scents as well. What do you think of mixing lavender with peppermint or buttermint? Im trying to use up some of the hundreds of bottles of fragrance oils I have that I am just not a huge fan of, hoping a combination of some will be more appealing. Thank you guys for your help:)
  2. Hello everyone! I have a 16 oz bottle of true lavender fragrance oil. Very realistic herbal scent. Looking for some blending ideas, not really a big fan of the scent on its own. I would like to make a sugary sweet lavender blend, but I would like to hear some of your ideas also. I did make some melts with the lavender and warm vanilla sugar that turned out really well. Thank you for any suggestions:)
  3. Thanks candybee, I'll check it out:)
  4. Received my order today, the rose jam is spot on. I ordered all the lush dupes they had, very pleased with my order. Vanillary is soft but smells amazing, avobath..very lemony. I ordered 37 oils and the only one I did not care for was Goddess. Just too strong and perfumey. Might smell better in wax though. Going to try to make some bath products with the Lush dupes. The nearest Lush store is 4 hours from me and their prices are outrageous. Excited to try my hand at making my own. Can anyone recommend a good shower gel base?
  5. I went ahead and ordered a bottle. The rose jam from lush smells like roses with a touch of lemon to me. Hope this is close:)
  6. Been wanting to order this fo as I'm a big fan of the Lush shower gel in this fragrance. Is it an exact dupe? Btw, I like "never promised".
  7. Since I'm going to order some samples from Bittercreek, does anyone else have some suggestions for some strong oils. I'm open to anything, but lean towards bakery. Thank you
  8. I should have clarified that I used this oil for tarts not candles. I did use a high percentage of oil hoping it would give a throw even though there is no scent out of bottle. Its been two months, still nothing. Thank you for the bittercreek suggestion I will give them a try:)
  9. Thank you for the suggestion, i will try that. Never heard of valerian...will have to look that one up.
  10. No luck at the candlemakers store:( thanks for the help though.
  11. I put it in wax today. I used one full ounce to 8oz wax. Still, no scent. I will burn it in a couple of days but I'm not holding my breath. I have purchased hundreds of fragrance oils from all of the major distributors and I've honestly never had an oil that literally smelled like nothing. I've just been searching for this particular scent for so long that I just purchased it on impulse. Does anyone have suggestions on how I could make my own?
  12. Looking for an authentic smelling pretzel scent. I ordered and paid (with shipping) over 40.00 for a 16oz bottle of soft pretzel from save on scents. To say I am dissapointed is an understatement. There is hardly any scent at all, i was almost convinced they just sent me a bottle of water, but there is a very light floral note that i detect....nothing close to pretzel. This was the ultra concentrate too! Anyway, live and learn i guess. I wont be making the mistake of not ordering a sample size of a fragrance i havent tried. Does anyone know where I might find this oil? Thank you in advance:)
