@katmeltswax, you are killing me!  I need another fragrance oil like I need another hole in the head.  Argh, on my way over to check it out.

I think I am going to blend it with Lavender.  I have some Lavender & Apricot lotion from BBW and I tried the Q-tip blend of the Apricot with one of the Lavenders I have and the result smelled very similar to my lotion, which is a very nice scent.

 

 

@GailC  That combination sounds lovely.

@soshiegirl I've wanted to try Jade and Blue agave.  Can you describe them please?  are they similar to each other?  Which one do you like best, how is the throw?  Thanks 

I really suck at this so bear with me.  Jade is more of clean "green" smelling scent and Blue agave is more of a softer green scent with floral undertones.  They do smell similar but Blue Agave outsells Jade for me.  I like them both (big help, right?).  Jade is an in your face thrower while Blue Agave is a milder, sneak up on you thrower.

@soshiegirl  I have a few on your list.  My granddaughter and I especially love Coco Mango.  I didn't list all the wonderful spring/summer FO's I have from NG.  One of my best sellers is Eucalyptus & Spearmint. Another that sold really well at  the store of my wholesale account is Tropical Blast. Some others I like are:

I have some I like OOB but haven't put in wax yet:

 

Apricot

Aloe & White Lilac

I don't care for floral scents but Honeysuckle, Lily of the Valley and Lilac have sold pretty well for me.

 

Can you tell I like Nature's Garden?   

 

I forgot about Apricot.  Get on that!  You will not be sorry.

Does the JS aspen winter have a strong scent throw?

It does.

I love Just Scent's Aspen Winter.  It's the only one I use.  I must confess I have not used NG's version so alas I cannot compare the two.  I also love Just Scent's Glistening Snow.  So good.

Trappeur,

I've got to know what the one recommendation was that you didn't like!!  You're killing me girlfriend.  . I'm glad you had a good experience with Becky; she's wonderful.  I've had many conversations with her about scents I like and those I don't and her recommendations based on that have been spot on.  We've all had our run ins with nasty members with nothing nice to say and I remember thinking, water off a duck's back. The oils that I order from Becky are some of my best sellers or that I personally love (and horde for myself).  If you ever want sniffies of the ones I mentioned, PM me.  You know I got you covered.

I agree with everyone. Since your using the KY tart wax might as well save on shipping . Now they have 2 Birthday cakes, I use the KY version but Ive never tried the

other one to compare. When Keystone starts selling Peak oils which should be very soon, I'll start getting it from there. I really like the Peak Bday Cake . Do you add 

anything to the KY parasoy or use as is ? 

Baby, use that KY parasoy wax as is.  It's perfect and easy to use.  I'm going to send you some of my favorite bday cake to play with along with some gingerbread scents.  Just PM me your addy.

I love Birthday cake!!!  The one I love from AH is Birthday cake (formerly from Soap N Candles).  To me it's the best one out there.  Now that everyone is talking about the KY one, I may have to check that one out!

I really like Almond Extract from Cierra Candles.

It shouldn't be this hard, should it?

@Moonstar I don't use EL Wax just plain ole paraffin/soy mix from several places.  I checked Candlesoylutions and if it has the (EL) in the name it's the original formulation from Enchanted Lites.  As for other scents, some that I love have been discontinued , however they do have a wonderful cinnabuns and egyptian musk.  Wish I could be of more help.

My favorite pumpkin pie is from Enchanted Lites (candlesoylutions).  It smells like the real deal, it's crazy.  Another pumpkin pie that I like, although not as strong and more sweet than Enchanted Lites is ICS Pumpkin Pie Filling.

Trappeur,

I love blending it with caramel, butterscotch, graham cracker and chocolate, toffee, fruits, coffee scents, etc.  I find that it adds more sugary sweetness to the scent.  All of the vanillas that I tend to use are not "sweet" vanillas, they are either mixed with something or a pure single note vanilla like vanilla bean that is not necessarily sweet like marshmallow (or at least the one I use).  Hope that helps.

I'm holding onto to dear life the last bit of Tennessee's Chocolate Nut brownie.  Although, not exact, I found WSP Fudge brownie to be quite nice.  It's the closest thing I've found and I've tried some real stinky ones.

Hey Sochi, have you tested that Marshmallow the Original

in wax? How well does it throw hot? 

As much as I love this oil, I have to say, it's not a powerhouse thrower.  I don't know of any pure marshmallow scents that will run you out the room and if there is, please let me know!  .  It's good and sweet.  It makes a great blender but also makes a nice single note candle/tart.

Yes, I know exactly what you mean coming hot from the dryer!  Good way to explain it.

 

But I don't see a cotton bouquet....Did you mean cotton tree?

 

Trappeur

I checked the bottle and it's called Cotton Blossom.

I can't get over how many FO's you've tried, lucky you lol ! Im going back n forth about the GB from MMS only because its so pricey. Im wondering how

different it is from the Buttery GB from BW. I looked on ICS , I believe theres only 1 but I don't recall it saying anything about Snowdrops, is it labeled that

way ? I don't always get an email back from her so not sure how id know that  Is real really a difference between them all of these ? 

Moonstar, I feel you about the Gingerbread from MMS; it is super pricey.  I only purchased the smallest amount because of the cost.  As for ICS gingerbread, perhaps they dropped off the Snowtop name since they purchased them a long time ago.  I forgot to add, Maple Street has an amazing gingerbread.  To me, this might be the perfect gingerbread scent.  Having said that, it's more on the sweet side than spicy side.  Just so you know, ICS Gingerbread is spicy like NG.  JS is not as spicy as NG and ICS.  If you let me know if you're looking for more sweet or spicy, I can send you some samples to play with.  

I agree with Candyb, plum crazy is divine!
