Hi! I was wondering if anyone knew of any oils that smell like Macintosh Apple (SNC) from Rustic? I'm so bummed that Rustic got rid of it.. It my go to Apple fragrance.. I thought about messaging them but I'm sure it's just gone I haven't seen it up in months. Now fall is sneaking in fast and I've been testing others to see what comes close and so far no luck.. JustScent's Red Mac Apple & Flaming's Macintosh Apple don't match. Any helps would be appreciated.. I'm going to test some more maybe CandleScience next.. Thank you!!

Sugar Milk is back in stock just incase anyone needs to pick some up

@chevcher, get a full pound of Bread Pudding. You'll thank me later. 😉😁

 

Edited to add: or at least 8oz! I love how their in-between prices are so reasonable!

Thanks for the recommendation! I haven't tried Bread Pudding there yet. So this is exciting!

I'm waiting for her Sugar Milk to go back in stock too @chevcher It has been MIA for almost a week I think?! This is torture! Lol

I've always read that "Solvent resistant glitter" was the best because it can withstand up to 350 degrees or more, So it won't melt/bleed! However I have used fine Dollar Store glitter as well as other glitters & hex glitters with no issues. & To my knowledge, Mica has to be added into the wax just like when you add color in! Hope that helps!

Just Scent!

I know right!  Buying and testing more oils I think I enjoy more the most.  LOL  🤣

 

I do love the Blueberry Cheesecake from CS quite a bit but I think I will at least pick up an 8 oz bottle from ICS just to compare.  If I don’t like it as much, I can just swap it out with one of my Waxy friends.  
 

I think you have me sold on the cherry cookies!  I love the sound of it being creamy and the fact that you are able to smell the cookie in it too.  That’s great!  For her white cake you mentioned that it’s super amaretto smelling..... Can you still smell the cake scent or not so much?  
 

Definitely noted on the Count Chocula.  Doesn’t sound like one you would likely reorder huh?  
 

Frankenberry sounds great but Frute Brute sounds mainly cherry.  
 

Lemon Ice Box Cookies sounds great!  I almost ordered I ed Lemon Cookie from Aztec but I know ICS has such great bakery oils.  I’m glad I help off so I can try hers.  
 

Praline Pound Cake sounds more appealing to me then Caramelized Pralines.  I am just not a fan of the CS Caramelized Pralines.  There is something in it that kinda makes me go eww... lol 

 

In any event thank you so much for your help and explanations on the scents from ICS.  She truly has amazing oils.  Any others we didn’t chat about?  

 

The White Cake is perfect, I’ve only used it once but if I remember correctly it did have a good cake balance. I love it! Perfect for a fun Valentine’s Day blend

Count Chocula is really good, I only use it around Halloween in a blend. But if you want a pure chocolate without that cereal note, I’d go for Fudge Cake or Chocolate Layer Cake.

& Frute Brute is something you can use year round.. it’s such a good cherry scent! I love that she offers all of the cereal oils.. My favorite! Especially Fruity Pebbles. & I never thought I'd love the scent of Sugar Milk so much. Also side note if you want a Captain Crunch Berry scent, Indigo Fragrance has it! The only one I haven't found yet that I'd love is Cinnamon Toast Crunch.

You will love them all, Can’t go wrong with tons of bakery!

& Any time!! Oils are always a lot of fun to sample & sniff away! Nothing but love for the ICS oils I have tried!

Hi @gigglefits I love your screen name here on CS.  Cute!  Thank you for your suggestions as well.  I have about 10 from your list.  They are:

 

Bear Claws
Blackberry Jam Butter Cookies
Boo Berry
Strawberry White Cake
Strawberry, Raspberry & Guava
Sugar Cookie Dough
Sugar Milk
Sweet Bakery Dough
Wildberry Mousse
Zucchini Bread

 

I do have quite a few from your list in my cart though.  They are:

 

Blueberry Cheesecake- how does this one differ from Candle Science if you have tried theirs?

 

Cherry Cookies- Can you smell both the cookie and cherry?  Is this similar to fruity brute?

 

Count Chocula- I’m not usually big on chocolate scents, but this one captured my attention for some reason.  I’m assuming you can smell the cereal in here too?  What is your favorite Chocolate scent from ICS?  

 

Flapjacks- @lovelyscents suggested this one to me also.  She said it’s the best pancake oil she has tried.

 

Frankenberry-  What do you get out of this one mostly?  

 

Fruity Brute-  Does this one smell close to Frabkenberry?  Seems like it might.  🤔

 

Lemon Icebox Cookies- Does this one smell just like regular lemon cookies?

 

Praline Pound Cake- Does this one smell anything like Caramelized Pralines from Candle Science?  Or is it more of a pound cake with a tad bit of a nutty smell?  
 

Goodness I really loaded up the questions lol hope you don’t mind.  Thanks again!  😇

Thank you very much! & I don’t mind at all, ask away! So many oils.. I can’t stop testing them all.. Always more to try Lol!

Blueberry Cheesecake - I haven’t tried the one from Candle Science, sorry! But I can say everyone loves it and picks up both the blueberry & cheesecake notes! One of my favorite blueberry oils!!

Cherry Cookies - I’d say it’s a strong cherry almost amaretto (her White Cake oil is super amaretto scented) but yeah the Cherry note in Cherry Cookies is toned down a bit because of the cookies note..makes it creamier I’d say! You can always add Frosted Sugar Cookie and tone it down. It’s so good!

Count Chocula - Is very unique because it does have that cereal note to it so it’s a subtle chocolate. I’d say it’s one of my favorite chocolate scents for sure. But I use chocolate layer cake mainly, or fudge cake, just depends on the blend I’m going for! They really do have different notes like you really can smell the rich chocolate cake vs the fudge! 

Frankenberry - A nice cereal note to it with strawberry. I love it!

Fruity Brute is more of a Cherry note!! With that classic cereal note. You could pull this one off in a fruity spring/summer blend because it can pass for non-bakery as well. Almost reminds me of those Luden’s cough drops.. I don’t mind that at all Lol!

Lemon Ice Box Cookies - Yep! It smells like a sweet lemon cookie! My go-to lemon oil for bakery blends. 

Praline Pound Cake - It’s different from Caramelized Pralines from CS! I just smelled the two..and that’s exactly it, the ICS one has more of a pound cake note with a nutty smell.

Any other scent questions feel free to ask! Happy oil shopping! Lol

That's awesome, the new site looks great! I use them for lots of my go to's! Amazing oils! Throws are always great & the scents are authentic..I've never had any weird artificial scents. Also I love that the pricing is still nice if you just want to grab 4oz or 8oz of something.

Cactus & Sea Salt
Cherry Cookies

I can't wait to smell the fo I ordered,  its glistening snow glad type, I absolutely  love that scent . I should get it in monday or tuesday.

I'll have to sample that! I've never smelled it before but I've been deciding on some new Christmas oils this weekend.

Yep!! Whenever I order from Indigo I get the same email from AromaStorm as well  They have awesome oils! The owner, Dawn, is so nice & helpful as well!

Triple YES to Gummy Bear Slushy from JS! That's one of my top favorites!! 

I also heard that Cherry Slushie from JS is great, but I haven't used it yet.. I used Cherry Slush from RE. It definitely throws and scents the whole neighborhood when I pour it Lol! 

Also, check out Sweet Tooth from RE for a good cherry scent, it's soo good! It's not a slush type, but still worth a shot!

Do you by chance know the difference between Apple Fritter & Apple Strudel?  I have an apple

pie fragrance, as well as an Apple Cinnamon and also a Baked Apple scent but thought the Strudel or the Fritter might be different?  @Belinda have you tried these?  😇

Sorry I haven't tried either of those! I have been eyeing those though.. So many apple scents I can't get enough Lol! But I can say that if you want a good apple strudel scent, check out Apple & Pumpkin Strudel from RE

Lemon Curd RE

Sea Island Grapefruit RE

Lime In Da Coconut RE

Fresh Squeezed Oranges RE

Also check out Satsuma RE for a nice citrusy orange!

& Check out Volcano RE because it's kind of a combo of orange, lemon & lime!

I used Spiced Cranberry from ICS for a fun cranberry orange blend! Soo good & it was a huge hit!

I would love a list 😊

I thank you for clarifying ICS I think I have ordered from that supplier once so a list would be wonderful

I love spot of scents from JS so I will definitely be looking into the recommended coffee scents thanks so much!!!!

 

Sugar Milk, (I was skeptical at first of milk in a scent, but wow it's amazing! Just don't get let it sit too long and try to use it up fast or I noticed it gets kind of sour) Her Zucchini Bread is spot on! Zucchini Pumpkin Bread, Fruity Pebbles! All of the spooky cereals- Frankenberry, Boo Berry, Count Chocula. Frosted Sugar Cookie, Blackberry Jam Butter Cookies, Lemon Ice Box Cookies, Chocolate Fudge Cake, Chocolate Layer Cake, Pink Frosted Cake, Cream Cheese Frosting, Pumpkin Pecan Waffles (perfect right now for fall!) Strawberry Raspberry Guava, Blackberry, Fresh Squeezed Pineapples, Cinnamon Buns, Peach Cobbler, Perfect Peach, Bear Claws.. I honestly can't think of anything I've tried from her that I haven't liked.. So I hope my never ending list helps! Lol! 

I haven't use a Hazelnut Coffee scent yet.. but I can recommend some of my go-to's! Coffee House & Spiced Pumpkin Latte from RE are two of my favorites! Great blenders too! & I agree with Belinda that Caramel Cinnamon Latte from JS is also amazing!! I would do blends with that and need the smallest amount and it woulda still shine in a blend! I swear a 1oz bottle lasted me so long Lol! 

ICS is Indiana Candle Supply.. She has tons of great oils too! I can make you a list if you'd like, I just don't want to go off topic from your requested coffee blend ideas! Lol!

http://candlesupplys.us/oils-thecoffeeshop.aspx

You'll find her coffee blends there as well as some Hazelnut options!

I know that FlamingCandle makes a dupe of Yankee's Salted Caramel & it's SOO good! I'm not sure if it smells close to BBWs though sorry!

& For a plain caramel I highly recommend Rustic's Kickin' Caramel. It's amazing!! 

That's so awesome, Sorry I missed your reply. I'm going to have to do a JustScent order this week! Thank you!!

My soft pretzel wax melts are done 😁... Scented them in the Pretzel fragrance oil and I have to say so far OMG the Pretzel fragrance on cold is AMAZING can't wait to burn them to see how it is on hot throw but so far I highly recommend the pretzel fragrance oil!!!

Omg! That's the cutest pretzel melt ever.. I love that! Thank you so much for letting me know! I will have to order a sample this week.. I can't resist fun new oils Lol!

Look what I received today my order from Just Scent I'm so excited working on the Pretzel melts as we speak I will let u know how they turn out once they cure out of the bottle I really like it so far so good!!!!

So exciting!!😍 New oils are always so fun! I can't wait to hear what you think of pretzel. The cannoli scent smells so good, & I haven't tried Becky's Ultimate Vanilla yet. 

Creamy Cinnamon Vanilla from Rustic is really good! 

Maybe try Amish Quilt as well? It's a spicy cinnamon.

Coconut Creme from Flaming Candle! It's a creamy coconut but very spot on! Also check out Cabana Coconut from Rustic

Hope these help! Sampling oils is always lots of fun at least

I will definitely let you know how the pretzel fragrance is!!! I'm hoping her peanut butter cookie is the last one I have to buy I've bought from other suppliers with no luck on hot throw so fingers crossed!!! 

 

Thank you! 

I haven't tried that yet but I've had nothing but great throws on her stuff so fingers crossed for you!  I'll have to give that scent a test sometime! I used the peanut butter from Indigo Fragrance and I love it!
