I use a para/soy blend and have very good luck with their oils. Their must haves for me are: Curve(dead on to me) Loving Spell(one of my best sellers) Raspberry Zinger(love it)

Which lemon are you using? I have never carried a non bakery lemon fo. I did use JBN's Lemon Grass a couple of years ago and mixed it with their JBN birthday cake and made Lemon Crumb cake. It was actually a really good seller for me. But then the birthday cake fo changed, guess they went with different supplier and when I reformulated it, I could not give it away. It was awful.

Thanks so much candle...I will look at them now.

I want to start using these for some of my melts and would like opinions on where the best place to get them in bundles of 100. Is paper mart gonna be my best place? They are $17 something for 100. Just wanted your expert advice before I ordered. Thanks so much!!!

LOL good question... But seriously, I get mine from Starville Soap and Candle supply. And I have a sniffie of it from NG and it is totally different. And I also know that Just by Natures is way different too. I tried the 2 samples I got and they were so different from the one I had been using from Starville that I just stay with Starville's. I was wanting to try and get away from them as I only use 2 of their oils, but theirs was the best for me.

Who has the best one? I got one sniffie a while back, not sure who from but I was not that crazy about it, seemed chemical smelling to me. Now I have some customers asking for it. I see that NG has one, and Peak too. Just wanted some opinions please.......

I have been asked to do a lemon lavender like y..me. Anyone have any suggetions for this one? Which lemon and where to get a good lavender from? I do not carry a lavender at all. And the only lemon I carry is lemon squares from ng. Thanks.

Ok I got my vanilla pods from C & S, and oob is awesome. No chemical smell to it like some others I have gotten. And I also got a sniffie of the vanilla cake one to test. And oob the vanilla cake smells oh so good. I will be testing both of these today and will let you know how they do. Thanks so much for all of your help......

Thank you all so much...looks like I have a few sniffies to order. I am also ak vanilla freak, and just want to find a great one. I will let you all know when they come in and I test them. I am doing a para soy blend, so we will see how they throw. Thanks again!

Hello all... I am new here, but not new to candle making. Been at it ten years and starting over with new business after being out of it for a year. I am having a hard time finding an awesome vanilla scent. I have heard some good things about Vanilla Bean Supreme from BCN. Have not ordered sniffie yet but plan to. Can you all offer some suggestions on some others I can get samples of? I appreciate it. I got the vanilla extract and vanilla velvet from BCN and BCS and just did not get the awesome vanilla that I was looking for. Thanks so much and I am looking forward to getting to know all of you and joining in on the board!
