Ohhh I absolutely love their SSA, Bamboo Sugarcane, Rustic Lodge and Satsuma! What does the Rooibos Red Tea smell like to you? That one has been on my radar for a few months now also. 😜❤

In the beginning I didn't do much blending. But eventually I just started playing around with mixing stuff and came up with some complex and unique scents from mixing. It's definitely a whole lot of trial and error but so rewarding when you find nice blends. I'm sure you would do great at blends Moonstar!!! How do you test your blends to see if they go together? 😇 In general I want blends that are creamy. Like for instance a lavender cream... I have one now, but that's why I wanted a more "cream" type scent to see if I can make it even better.

Thank you Moonstar! Yah I'm just trying to find a nice blender that is creamy that can be used in many blend to add an almost creamy note. Is here anything you use for that kind of effect? 🤔❤😇 Thanks so much again!

Hi Soshiegirl! Thank you for your help. It's much appreciated. I have got quite the list going with RE and think I need to chill out. I've currently got 24, 16 oz bottles and my total climbed rather quickly! 😬 I think I might just follow yours and Belinda's advice about FB Vanilla Ice Cream and skip the Tres Leches Cake and sweet n' creamy from RE. Without someone that has used them and really enjoyed their fragrance spending an extra $40 on them seems silly especially when I have so many other vanilla FO's. I've heard that some condensed milk type scents tend to smell sour. Which is why I wanted to first check with you gals to make sure. Eeekkkk.... I just put in for a shipping quote and I'm at $45 in shipping charges!!! Have you used karma sutra or salt water taffy from RE? Any suggestions for a great ginger ale scent? I heard FB fizzy pop is great but was gonna checkout RE's Sparkling ginger too. Anyone? Lmk 😇

I would have to agree as I do have purple sandalwood. I haven't mixed it with anything as of yet but it does smell lovely! TFS!

Hi Sarah and THANKS SO MUCH for your input on the Sweet Amber Musk! Im now even more excited to try it! 😇

Hello ladies! I hope you are all doing well and finishing up all of your Christmas shopping and all of your wax creations for the holiday season. 🎄🎁 As for me, I'm driving myself bonkers trying to figure out what some of the best scent blenders from RE are. (other than toasted marshmallow) I have heard that some condensed milk FO's can smell nasty and sour. But the ones that are good are REALLY GOOD! So would like to get at least one condensed milk scent. 👍🏼 The two listed below are both condensed milk type of scents and I of course don't want to get them if they are not strong blenders with a pleasant smell. Rustic Escentuals Sweet n' Creamy Rustic Escentuals Tres Leches Cake And then the other 2 are creamy scents that I think would make nice creamy blends out of things. Rustic Escentuals Whipped Cream Rustic Escentuals Vanilla Ice Cream I would greatly appreciate your help/input everyone. Thanks so much!!! 😇❤🙏🏼 EDIT: Oh, while I'm at it, I might as well ask about some of the others I was thinking about ordering from RE. Blue Lagoon Lovely Type Elserflower & Moss Sea Salt & Rice Flower Coconut Cream Pie Karma Sutra Amber Lumiere Sweet Amber Musk Awapuhi Seaberry Pink Berry & Tonka Bean If you have used any of these please do LMK what you thought of them. ❤😇

I read the description of the FO that you listed and my mind immediately went to RIBBON CANDY! Especially if you don't smell the pumpkin and you get mostly fruit and top notes of orange and spice is in the description. But here are a few names that came to mind: 1.) Ribbon Candy 2.)Grannies Candydish or Grandma's Candydish 3.) Spiced Gumdrops 4.) Goody Goody Gumdrops 5.) Vintage Christmas 6.) Holiday Sparkle 7.) All Wrapped Up HTH love all the names everyone came up with. 😇❤

Awww.... That's really awesome that you got a weekend trip with your grand daughter and her 2 year old. Yes they are alway sooo nice at NG. The first time I went I stayed over an.hour and 1/2. They had closed at 4:00 that day but I didn't get out of there until like 4:35 pm. Ahh, cocoa mango huh? What exactly do you get from that one? Isn't it strange how we always end up liking really odd named ones that we never suspected that we would like? 😜

@GailC Yes I've done that myself where I got there at 3:45 pm and wasn't able to smell all of what I wanted to. But thinking about it now, sometimes I will have a list created of ones I want to smell and I get tunnel vision and start sniffing ones next to the ones I'm supposed to be smelling. 😂😂😂 Then you can also easily become nose blind. But I do like living close to them. It can really become a bad thing if your a Fragrance Oil-a-holic like I am! And they are just they're so accessible. But it's also for this reason that I my FO supply is at least 50-60% NG. I do also have quite a bit of WSP and have started collecting BA. And I LOVE RE! How far away from NG do you live Gail? 😇

Wow no.... I don't see where there is 25% off with FB? Is it still going on or is there a code you have to enter?

@Belinda yes it's so fun sometimes but like you just mentioned.... It can definitely be money draining! I get to smell them all without guessing what one may or may not smell like, but because of that I buy so much more. 😬 It's got to the point to where I'm almost paranoid to order from other companies without first getting a referral that they are good from friends. I guess it's made me kinda cheap. 😜

I am seriously so bummed! And probably one of the biggest airheads.... 🙄 I MISSED AZTEC'S BLACK FRIDAY SALE! I thought it was until tonight at midnight so I just was gonna come here and see if anyone had made suggestions and then go place my order. But much to my surprise, I go to the website and see the Black Friday link that they had on their site gone. 😪 Does Aztec have other sales? I seen a YouTube video where the lady said they were having a 33% off sale? When does that usually happen? Ugh! Just my luck...

Anyone else have some good suggestions for Aztec FO's? I'm placing an order today before the sale ends hopefully... I just need some guidance especially with BBW Yankee and Lush dupes from Aztec. Thanks in advance, ladies and gents 😇 Has anyone tried the following: Driftwood Island Forever Red Sparkling Pear Riesling Vanilla Pumpkin Marshmallow Hawaiian Hibiscus Citron Cedarwood Vermont Honey Apple Cantaloupe & Lily Sex Bomb Flying Fox Blueberry Cobbler bayside Marina Black Coconut Yankee Type Cactus & Sea Salt Cottage Breeze Yankee Type Pink Sands Hello Beautiful Thanks so much everyone!

I'm about 14 miles from NG, 22 miles from WSP, 30 miles away from Bulk Apothecary , 140 miles from Just Scent and roughly 160 miles from TCS. Although I've never been to the JS or TCS, I have ordered from Just Scent. Becky is such an awesome person! Anyways, I love being this close to them but it can be a bad thing too! 😬💕

Thanks Trapp! Yes to my nose CS Mac Apple is a straight up Apple Orchard kind of scent. Where as Apple Harvest has a tid bit of cinnamon to it which is why I suggested Cinnamon Apple Sauce. Along with the fact that it brings back so many good memories for me. I used to love a small side of Cinnamon Apple Sauce with dinner when I was little. ❤ Oh the good ole' days!

Yes. I also like NY APPLE HARVEST and then I also like APPLE ORCHARD or APPLE CRISP! I don't quite think CS Apple harvest can pass for an Apple Butter but I do think it can pass for CINNAMON APPLE SAUCE. Good Luck Sandy! 😇

Hmmm..... Thank you for the heads up on that. For $11 I may just grab some of that one too. But I will be getting Blueberry Cobbler, Volcano, BRV and possibly more monkey farts. But now that I see your list I may also try the Vermont Honey Apple and Cateloupe send Sweet Lily. Thank you for sharing! Much appreciated. Do you know of any other Black Friday sales?

If they are still available I would absolutely love sniffies! I've heard great things about your FO's. 😇 💕💕💕😇

Ahhh... Good to hear your feedback on Aztec 's Love Spell. It's so weird how each individual likes different things and yet some of the same things. What kind of wax do you use? I also have and LOVE the NG Eucalyptus & Spearmint! Such a nice balanced FO. If you do try the E&S from Aztec you will have to update me. 👍🏼 I have NG Butt Naked and I do really enjoy it. I get a nice blend of all of the fruits. This one certainly isn't heavy on cherry. I just went to check the destash oils I got from my friend and funny enough.... There's actually 2 Aztec FO's in the box! LOL. One is Bahama Fizz and the other Monkey Farts. OOB I really like the Monkey Farts! And actually the Bahama Fizz is nice too. Hmm... Good to know! So you really enjoy the Blueberry Cobbler? Have you tried any other BB Cobbler FO's and liked them more? As as far as Aztec Oils are concerned what are your top 10 FO's from them? Anyone else have favs from Aztec? Looks like they will be selling their top 10 for $11 a bottle!?!?!!!!! Wowzers! Great price! What are everyone's suggestions from there? 😇

My absolute favorite Love Spell is from NG. Although they call theirs NG Loving Spell. We also did a blind test with a few different Love Spell FO's and NG Loving Spell took it OOB with all but one. 👍🏼 HTH

Would you like to name it to a Christmas Apple or an all year Apple name? 😜

I personally like Pink Sugar from Just Scent! Now the only other one I have smelled OOB is NG and OOB I just prefer to stick with JS. HTH. 😇

Hi TT, I'm still pretty new here. I heard your Pink Sugar is amazing. How does one go about getting into a co-op and what exactly does it entail? Thanks so much!

Hi Gail. I personally haven't used ANY of Aztecs FO's. However, I asked a good friend of mine who has been making B&B products and wax melts for about 5 years.... She told me that the following are great in both B&B and wax products. Blueberry Cobbler Monkey Farts Butt Naked BRV She also stated Birthday Cake isn't a realistic cake but it's good for what it is. More of a frosting vanilla type. And then the Eucalyptus & Spearmint is okay it's just more heavy on Mint than Eucalyptus. She was adamant about not getting their Love Spell (she knows my taste in FO) saying that it's definitely not a good one. Anyways, I hope this helps you out a bit at least. 😇
