perfect, sounds like what i might be looking for, thanks for your help mike

Is it sweet (like lemonade) at all? or more a pure lemon (i hope)?

I was wondering if anyone has seen a meyer lemon FO anywhere? Meyer lemons have a "salty", more "heavy" smell than regular lemons.

Well it seems they are a bit more stable than i thought with the right care. So would it be a good practice to keep them in amber bottles if i doubt I'll have the scent more than a year?

I seem to be accumulating more and more bottles of scents and that led me to wonder... What is the average shelf life of FOs (not EOs which i can only assume would be shorter)?

Kinda....Id like to build a palette of base scents (vanilla, orange, lavender, cedar, florals...) that are true to their name. (example: a cinnamon that is true; not the sweet idealized version of one) hopefully from one or two suppliers to make my own unique scents. My concern is if I piece them from dozens of places there might quality, mixing or strength issues.

While I have a good idea of the answer after looking for awhile I was wondering if anyone knows or has used a supplier who specializes in basic scents (FO or EO if they work). Nothing wrong with the finished "reciped" scents, but I looking pure true scents to mix my "recipes". I hope that came out right, hard to sum up a question on smell in type
