simplicity

I know Daystar does amazing LUSH types with Alkmare (for Silky Underwear) and Honey Bee Sweet (for HIWTK). But who does this amazing LUSH Trichomania type FO (as this *one* favorite etailer carries)?

hmm... so is it 'save' to conclude that Day-Star's Matin Calin is 'IT'???

thanks everyone for the feedback! now, does anyone know how SW Lait Sucre & Day-Star Matin Calin compares? are they actually similar or identical at all? thanks...

hi!! have you smelled any of these FOs? wondering how do they compare to the original & who has the BEST??? Scent Works Lait Sucre (type) "With a buttery note of milk and the sweetness of sugar candy and vanilla pod... This is a comfort scent like a mug of warm sweet milk before bedtime. What more could a 'sweet scent' lover want?" Day-Star Matin Calin (type) "This is a richly warm, sweet, delicious scent also known as 'sugar milk'. This fragrance captures the essence of sweet toffee, milk, sugar, hints of vanilla pods, and ends with sandalwood." Soap Silly Matin Calin (type) "Aka Lait Sucre. Rich, warm and delicious. The creamy, buttery note of milk and the sweetness of sugar and vanilla pod. Definitely a must-have comfort scent." thanks in advance!

hi hi i'm an international newbie from indonesia, addicted to comforting, cozy, cuddly scents in perfumes, tarts, candles & home fragrances... but honestly i'm too clueless about fragrance oils & stuffs... at the moment i'm looking at FOs to make my own HFOs & perfumes. since i'm gonna use these FOs for personal use only, i prefer to order for HIGHEST quality FOs (even at HIGHEST price), rather than AVERAGE quality FOs (even with with LOWEST price)... as it's an international order, i CANNOT afford ordering from several FO suppliers or testing samplers first, thus i prefer to purchase in BIGGER quantity at once from 1 FO Supplier, coz the shipping + forwarding + handling + import tax painfully costing me sky-high already! i noticed DAYSTAR, INDIANA CANDLE SUPPLIES, JUST SCENT, SCENT WORKS, NATURE'S GARDEN are among others raved here (and they all have extensive AMAZING scent list!!!), but i thought it won't hurt to post a new thread to ask for your BEST suggestions for FO SUPPLIER & SCENTS RECOMMENDATIONS based on my scents preferences below: LUV sweet, cozy, comforting, cuddly, snuggly scents, vanilla, marzipan, sugared almonds, foody/bakery DISLIKE tart/fruity, citrus, floral, musky, powdery, incensey/patchouli/woody scents/blends looking for BEST FO SUPPLIER & SCENTS RECOMMENDATIONS in the following scents categories below: *L'Artisan Jour de Fete *Serge Lutens Rahat Loukoum *Lea St.Barth (but too musky for me) *LUSH Snowcake *LUSH Honey I Washed The Kids *LUSH Schnuggle *LUSH Sonic Death Monkey *LUSH American Cream/Shimmy2 *LUSH Sympathy for The Skin *CleanseYourSoul.com: Pink Almond Cream (CYS Exclusive)- Pink Sugar blended with almond and marshmallow cream Pistachio Marshmallow Cream (CYS Exclusive) - Yum!

Hi, I'm a International newbie here, just wanted to say Hi... I'm so glad I found this board, everyone of you seem to be real experts in the business! I luv home fragrances; candles, tarts, reed diffusers & home fragrance oils, and usually ordered them all the way from US etailers (candles, tarts) or Europe retailers (candles, reed diffusers, HFOs; Diptyque, L'Occitane, Culti, TBS, Crabtree & Evelyn, etc.)--and at the end, finally they cost me DOUBLE from their original price. Well, unfortunately I have no other choice coz I really can't find ANY decent home fragrances here, I like them super strong, longlasting, with amazing, excellent throw. I'm just trying to find more economical option to enjoying home fragrances -- to use for myself -- I do not sell them. Thus, really wondered if I purchase those fragrance oils from Just Scents, Daystar, ICS, etc., can I make/use them as HFOs with an oil burner? Or should I dillute them with oil/water/something? Well, at least they're lighter in weight, thus cheaper to mail out. Or maybe there's better recs? Thank you in advance... I just luv nicely scented home! Like to hear about your experiences with home fragrances (tarts, candles, HFOs, reed diffusers,...) too!
