Did Bittercreek Candle get bought out by anybody?
-
Sugar Cookie Royale from Fragrance Buddy (so good). As for Blueberry, I use Blueberry Burst from AH/RE....so good. Sorry, I can't help you on the honey fragrance.

@LilFirecracker just go ahead and order TT's Dragon's Blood. You won't be sorry and you'll never need to look again. The BEST ever.

Interesting challenge!
What sticks out most for me is that "it's for her fantasy role-playing character." Can you get any more information about that character and build the scent around that? Color and name both play a huge role in how my brain interprets a scent, so I'll bet you could use almost any scent that plays into the theme as long as you name it appropriately. For example, if she's role-playing an elf, you could use something forest-y or green (ivy, etc) even though they don't typically scream "blue", as long as you give it an appropriate name, like "Ancient Forest Whispers," dyed a light blue, blue-grey or blue-green (I'm terrible with names, but you get the idea. ) For something more along the lines of cyberpunk then maybe something like cologne or ozone/air, dyed medium blue. Something with a patchouli or an earthy vetiver base for a mage or sorcerer, in a deep deep blue.
Let us know what you end up with!I was going to say the same thing. If you know what her character is all about, it will definitely help you hone in on the type of fragrance direction you should go in as well as develop the name to support it. We're anxiously awaiting to hear the outcome!

They are most definitely on the more expensive side. I have to be out of everything I get from them to make shipping somewhat affordable.

I agree with Belinda on the All Hallow's Eve, it's really good.
-
I really like the Candy Corn from Millcreek. It smells like the candy tastes, if you know what I mean.

I did receive that email; I sent her an email inquiring about the pretty for OOS oils but never heard anything back. Her oils are pretty awesome.

Hey Belinda! I have and I like it. Chocolate type scents are truly funny; hard to get right.
Trying to move chocolate type scents for me is like pushing a boulder up hill with a broken leg; however, I keep trying!!

Just Scent has a S'mores scent as well.

You might want to try and email Becky. She might still have the description for you.

Interesting idea. Does anyone have experience using Julie to dupe fragrances? I'd hate to be stuck with 7 lbs. of FO that is not useful.
I've purchased quite a few of her duplicated oils and they are spot on. Her website (https://soapingsupply.com/fragrance-duplicationhttps://soapingsupply.com/fragrance-duplication) mentions that they molecular clone the scents. I'm about to send her several oils to duplicate because they are no longer available.
-
I'm hanging on to my last bit of Mistletoe as well. If you have enough oil left, you might consider sending it off to Julie from soapingsupply.com. She dupes scents.
-
I would consider checking out Scentsational Soaping Supply. Her dupes are spot on and she happens to have a Karma dupe. You could also email her and ask if this is a molecular clone of the original fragrance; she's very good at getting back to you. Worth a shot. Good luck!

@candlesncatsYou will love their sugar cookie, I promise!
-
I think Pure Fragrance Oil's sugar cookie and Fragrance Buddy's Sugar Cookie Signature Scent are amazing. You cannot go wrong with either one of them.

Thanks! I wondered what Tennessee's description was. That's weird. Suppliers usually have more accurate scent descriptions. Love the way you describe it! "Baking in a wood cabin". Exactly. And that's why I didn't use it for years. Just don't care for the smoke smell.
But I did just buy Candlescience's Christmas Hearth. I had a smaller bottle years ago, and it is my sister's very favorite fragrance. I do like its scent better than This Old House.
I must be honest, I'm not a fan of the scent but my clients love it so I make it for them. As for Christmas Hearth, I may have to give that a go!
-
Hi Gail! Unfortunately, that's the same description used by Tennessee Candle Supply. I agree with you that there is more to the scent than just those notes. I smell a woodsy type note in the background so perhaps the cedar is what is. It's like the apple, gingerbread, and cinnamon are baking in a wood cabin.

Have you tried asking her to do a special buy of it for you? She's always willing to help out when she can. My favorite was Mulled Cider from TriState but they're out of business. Have you tried BCN's Hot Apple Cider?
-
I love Bulkapothecary's Tobacco Vanilla fragrance. I can send you a sniffie if you'd like. It's wonderful!
Bittercreek?
