Thanks so much for your reply, very much appreciated!!

I looked high and low for the best fresh baked bread and WSP is a winner!!! An absolute favorite of my co-worker, a little pricey, but oh so true to its name - I use a para-blend. I tried CS a while back, it is nice, but smells like 'rye' bread to me:D you can't go wrong with WSP's...

Hi, I know 'pumpkin' can be a bad word around here sometimes:D , but I'd love to hear some opinions on which is liked more...I use a para-blend... Thanks so much for your help!

I've been trying to keep up with this thread since it started, so I might have missed a post regarding this...but I sure thought that ICS's Caramel Nut Clusters smelled like CS's Hansel & Gretel's House, anyone else agree with me on this?

Hi! I'd love to hear any opinions on TCS's cranberry chutney - I use a para-blend and thought I had seen good reviews for it on the site - but ever since their website changed - I liked it better before - I don't see any reviews posted...anyway, thanks so much in advance for your reviews...always very much appreciated...

Hi! I use a para-blend, and I have been so hit and miss with JS - IMO, when she has the buy 1 oz, the second free, one bottle would throw nicely, the second would not, I wish someone could explain to me why that happened...I have a few of her oils that are loved & throw great - Captivatingly Currant, Candied Blueberries, Chestnuts & Brown Sugar, Raspberry Vanilla Creme (this one I don't see is that awesome, but a few of my customers love it) - I would love to find replacements for these oils, cause I would never look back at JS - spent way too much money there, to be very disappointed once testing...

Hi Kimberly, I've been trying to get away from JS for a while, but I love Chestnuts and Brown Sugar - will you share where you found your awesome replacement?

Hi! I use NG's cucumber cantaloupe, but my friend is interested in a cucumber melon - so I'd appreciate any opinions on the best one out there for a para-blend... Thanks in advance for your help!!!

Pot? teehee - I used Hollyberry at Christmas and my one friend went nuts over it - reminded her of a gift shop at Christmas - maybe it will grow on you...oh my, guess I shouldn't have used that word....thanks for all your wonderful reviews...I can't wait to try the Fresh Bread, I currently use WSP, awesome scent, true to its name, but very expensive, I'm hoping that I like CS's as much...

I really think NG's Old Fashioned Banana Pudding and Peak's Banana Nut Bread are awesome banana scents:drool:

Thanks so much, Dirty Bird, sounds like I better put that on my to-try list...

This is tough, but fun.... My favs.... Lemon Biscotti (Bert's) Citrus Splash (BCS) and I don't like fruits that much:shocked2: Hansel & Gretel's House (CS) Perfect Pumpkin (WSP) Baked Bread (WSP) What I'm selling most right now... Apples & Berries (Cajun) Strawberry Rhubarb Pie (NG) Raspberry Vanilla Creme (JS) Spicey Apples & Peaches (TCS) Caribbean Holiday (TCS)

Hi! I'm just wondering where you get your Pearberry from - a friend of a friend is just mostly interested in all pear scents - I just poured Pearberry from CS's sale - waiting to test it later this week - thanks for your help!!!

Hi! I buy Cotton Balls & Blossoms from Nature's Garden - I'm waiting to see if my friend's friend tests it and says it is the same or similar as the Sea Island Cotton:smiley2:

Hi Cathy, The friend that made me start looking for it said that the BBW scent had been changed from Cotton Balls & Blossoms to Sea Island Cotton - so I already had a tart poured in the Cotton Balls & Blossoms from NG and sent it so she could test, I'm waiting to hear back if it is similar...but she also brought in her body splash so I could smell it, and although I thought it smelled alot like cotton balls & blossoms, there did seem to be a little other scent in it, the ocean? I just wasn't sure, no one else has responded to my post, so I'm not sure what to think about this fo being for sale anywhere else...I'll be sure to let you know what my friend thought about the cotton balls & blossoms tho...thanks so much for your reply!!!

Hi! I had a request for Sea Island Cotton and found it at GL, but I haven't had much luck with GL's fos in my para-blend - I've never heard of it before - GL's site says it is a White Barn Type - has anyone used this fo? or have any opinions on it? I have tested Peak's Clean Cotton & NG's Cotton Balls & Blossoms - both throw great in my wax - I'm wondering if the Sea Island Cotton is similar to those two fos? Thanks in advance for your replies!!!

Hi! Thanks for all your suggestions!!! I finally got up the nerve to pour Peak's Spiced Pear, that I've had since Christmas, and oh my, I can't wait to test it, the CT is awesome...and I think I'm actually going to like it...we'll see how the HT does.... I was wondering if anyone would suggest NG's Vanilla Pear, it has some good reviews posted on their site...but no one mentioned it, and I read another post that JS is coming out with a vanilla lime, supposed to be this week, and I've really been trying to find a good Vanilla Lime too - I had bought it from JBN, poured it, and couldn't bring myself to test it cause the CT was nasty, and then I read that they had discontinued it already, I think it was up for 2 seconds... Anyway, I am very hit and miss with JS fos, so I'll guess I'll definitely be trying Bert's pear fos, and maybe have to venture out for some others, I keep saying I'm trying to finish up finding my spring and summer fos for this year, but the FOHO I am just has to keep lookin' around... Thanks again for all your suggestions - I really appreciate it:highfive: !!!

Hi Sharon, Thanks for your suggestion, I love Bert's Lemon Biscotti and need to order it soon, so I will definitely put it on my to-try list:smiley2:

Hi! A friend of a friend wants ONLY pear scents, so I thought I'd ask some opinions for the best throwing pear for a para-blend... I've tried JS perfect pear, and unfortunately this is one that makes me gag...so, I'm sorry, but it is out....I'm interested in opinions for the best Pear Berry, Vanilla Pear...anything but JS Perfect Pear:( ... Thanks in advance for your replies and help:yay: ...

Hi Brenda, Thanks for your post - I can't wait to try it:highfive:

after I saw the 99 cent sale for CS, this fellow FoHoer had to go and order some samples....couldn't pass up a great sale, now could I? Here's what I got: Lavender Vanilla Hot Baked Apple Pie Honeydew Melon Violet Lime Coconut Lime Verbena White Tea & Berries (I hope this throws strong cause it sounds so awesome) Coconut Lime Pearberry SweetPea & Vanilla Strawberry and Fresh Bread I gotta go check when the next FoHo Anon meeting is...but I'm excited:yay:

Hi Carol - I've never purchased oils from connie's before - I'll definitely go take a peek - thanks so much for your help!!!

Hi! I had bought NG's Halo and it was quite good, but they have discontinued it - I have a friend that loves it so I am looking for another Halo - I found it at Just Scent - haven't ordered it yet, and was wondering whether anyone knew of any other suppliers that offer it? Thanks so much for your help!!!

Thanks everyone for your suggestions - I decided to try the vanilla lime and gingered pumpkin and see how they do in my wax - :smiley2: - and I know what you mean about the shipping - I think I'm saving most of my spring/summer budget for Peaks & NG - just love the Strawberry Rhubarb pie at NG!!! Thanks again!!!

Hi! Looks like I am headed to Just by Nature to sample the vanilla lime - I've never bought fos from them - I'd love some opinions/suggestions for fos to sample??? I use a pre-blended paraffin - Thanks so much for your help!!!!
