  1. Bert hs a really yummy carmel apple but not sure if she still has in stock. Throws great in parasoy. I just got a small bottle of Carmel Apple Crunch from wsp which I just tested in votives(ecosoya pb) and the throw is great. I also just got bottle of Carmel apple cider from candlewic...oob it smells wonderful but haven't tested it in wax yet. I'm on an apple kick these days looking for the best one for fall and have to say so far as far as throw goes Berts is the winner but wsps smells better to me but not as good a throw as berts but they both throw great. I'll be trying candlewics asap Haven't purchased any candy corn so can't help you there
  2. I've had great luck with Orange Dreamsickle(A grade) was the only one I could find that didn't produce the dreaded fuel smell in parasoy wax. I tried the B grade once and was not impressed(too weak imo) will stick with A grade with this particular fo
  3. Yes Trapp! Please post a pic when done....would love to know how this one turned out as the combo of the 2 sound so yummy and a frosted mason jar? wow...what a find
  4. Is it best to use paraffin wax with these? Would parasoy wax do ok? I have some parasoy scrap wax and really like the idea of these things.
  5. I am super bummed out! I just went on the website to order some of her awesome Creme Brulee only to see that shes decided to quit :( She is already OOS on some oils but thankfully the Creme Brulee was still there. so sad
  6. Thank you....I'm going to scratch the maple hazelnut off of my list of possible buy. French vanilla I'll keep on my list and Amish Harvest is a must get for me. I was dissapointed with Apple Pie. I made some votives. Used Candlewicks feather palm and they have cured for quite a few days and still don't have all too great of a throw. oob it smells really good...not very strong but very good so I had hoped it would throw well. So...nobody has tried any of the EOs?
  7. The 1 lb bottles do have labels I hope? I really was not too thrilled when I saw those sample bottles with no labels but since the price was so good I shouldn't complain oh Carol...the French Vanilla morning smells close to C&S Vanilla Pods? oooo I so have to try that one now.....I love Vanilla Pods please let me know what you think of the Maple Hazelnut Crunch Bars as far as C & H throw. it sounds like a yummy one
  8. Has anyone purchased any of the EOs? I had ordered a lb of the sugar cookie and decided to try an oz of the peppermint eo....not sure what I'll do with it since I mostly do candles but sometimes I like to play with MP soaps so maybe I can try it with that along with some pumice for a peppermint foot scrubby bar of soap. These prices are unbelievably low and the cheap cheap or even free shipping is just an added nice bonus. Looks like I'm going to place another order and try out the fluffy cupcake and amish harvest......I love bakery and spicy fall scents and keep reading everyones reviews and get more lbs while these prices and low shipping rates are available
  9. I do the little organza sachet bags and small 1 and 2oz sprays. Most popular for me is... Pink Sugar Beach Linen(CS) Smoke and Odor Eliminator(CS and almost out of it! akk!) Love Spell Usually anything clean smelling and some go for the fruity like black cherry or strawberry
  10. I don't use pure soy. I use 6006 and palm(not mixed together) I made a spray and also put some in a tealight warmer with some 6006 added. Sorry, never purchased any fos from moonworks so can't give you a comparison. I have used and really liked CS version(smells great but just not strong enough) KYs which I do also like and also NGs Mrs Claus sugar cookie which is also great but I'm on a search for something that has a great throw in wax and smells great and think imo that the version from this supplier is my favorite and will be good for both H and C throw. Well now you have me curious on the moonworks version lol
  11. I sure do know what you mean coconut......can't put my finger on the odd odor but I know I just didn't like it so from now on when I make Red Hot Cinnamon Candy scented candles I stick with the CS version
  12. I had that happen to me once about a year ago when I purchased a Red Hot Cinnamon fo from Berts......of all the scents to have a soapy smell to it....was very odd to me and I could not get past that soapy odor that it had. I never used the oil and have to say it's the only fo I baught from Bert that I couldn't stand. I'm not much help as to why that would happen....sorry...but needless to say I chucked it out
  13. My absolute favorite is the Sugar Cookie....yummm yummm I love this one Not impressed with Lemon Buttercream....doesn't really smell like either of them all that much and it's weak imo Apple Pie....poured the oz into 10oz feather palm wax(candlewic) and made some votives and 2 tarts....the votive is weak but the tart smells great in my burner....maybe I have to let the votives cure a bit. If I can get this apple pie to throw well I will like it better than KYs and I love KYs apple pie Cinnamon Pumpkin Bread...I poured into a tealight warmer with a little bit of CO and wow....strong! smells good to me...I smell the cinnamon the most but can also detect the bread and pumpkin. Home Sweet Home.....did the same...put it in a tealight burner with some CO and altough it really doesn't smell like Yankees HSH it smells strong, good and spicy That's all I got to I wants gallons of the sugar cookie for sure lol
  14. Thanks! I really really like the sugar cookie and if it works out in my warmer then I'm going to buy a lb of it. I too am always on the hunt for a good sugar cookie and may have a winner with this one. The scent lingered for quite a while when I sprayed the room spray which to me is a good sign. Nor sure I have enough to make a candle now but will try tomorrow to make a couple of tarts with it. Like I said earlier I have severe candle nose so I may have jumped the gun saying the oils were not too strong oob. I also have Birthday cake I'm looking forward to trying out. Customer service gets a big thumbs up from me. Very nice man a will seem to go out of his way to make everyone happy. ok....off to work I go.....thanks for reviews everyone!
  15. I poured about a 1/2 oz of the apple cinnamon in my large tart/candlewarmer along with a tablespoon or two of palm wax and have to say it smells great in here. My entire downstairs area smells really good and its drifting upstairs now. I also made a room and linen spray using KYs spray base and the sugar cookie fo and that too smells yummy. The spray is nice and clear. Since I didn't have time to make candle testers I had to try something due to being impatient and wanting to try these out lol
  16. ok gang.....got my package about 45 mins ago. For starters, I'm not very impressed with these bottles and how they are marked. No labels, just the scent name handwritten on the bottle with black magic marker They were all stuffed in a ziplock bag, in the box with packing peanuts on each end....no leakage on any of them. oob impressions are ok....none seem very strong but the scent of each one is mearly ok....kinda weak imo but that's just an oob impression and God knows I've got severe candlenose from all the candles I've been pouring the past few days getting ready for a show next Thursday. Now the scent I do really like is the Pink Sugar...and of course that's the one for B&B only I believe lol I'm going to try and make a few candles with some of these but not sure when since I'm working all weekend I'm hoping to test Monday. Please anyone else that gets theirs today I would like to hear other opinions I can say this much.....I don't think I will be ordering any large bottles anytime soon from this company unless I'm impressed with the throw of my testers.
  17. I just got an email from Luis Rodriguez(owner maybe?) saying thank you for the order and that the Mac Apple sample I ordered with the set was not in the package and that it was shipped seperately yesterday so I'm guessing I should have that one by Monday. Seems like he is doing his best to make everyone happy and work out whatever kinks there may be in a new business. I'm very anxiously awaiting this order.........anyone get theirs yet?
  18. lmao Stella! Beautiful candles! I really like the teal one the best
  19. Looks like my package will be here sometime today Will give an OOB review as soon as I can. I'm so hoping that these are good oils since the prices are really good.......crossing fingers....and toes lol
  20. According to usps tracking info I should have mine by tomorrow. The status is processed and left Atlanta GA sorting facility.
  21. Just got mine also but when I clicked on the usps site all I get is the Electronic Info recieved status which could mean that all they created was a label........yup..we shall see I'm going to keep a very close eye on this one and if nothing gets sent in a few days I am canceling this order and also make sure there's no fishy charges on my card. Debra....you are very brave. If I were you I would wait and see what happens with us to see if we got our order. bugtussle is so right about if it's too good to be true.......but I'm hoping for the best
  22. hmmmmm I only spent 15.00 but I'm not going to be a happy camper if I get ripped off.....I just recently got taken by a member here on the classies...I don't think I could stand another scammer. My mouth will get super big too! lol
  23. I clicked on the link that said for candles and each one I chose said works well in soy and other waxes except for the Pink Sugar. I'm so glad you pointed that out Carol because I would have tried the Pink Sugar out in wax if the bottle isn't marked for candle use. Many of my customers are fans of Pink Sugar so I'm always on the lookout for a good one.
  24. I just placed an order for 10 of the 1oz samplers. 9.90 for the ten plus 5.35 shipping......not bad!!! Heres a lst of what I ordered... The Sugar Cookie Apple Cinnamon Apple Pie Birthday Cake Blueberry Blastoff Cinnamon Pumpkin Bread Mac Apple Pink Sugar Home Sweet Home Lemon Buttercream Icing The prices of all the oils are great and I'm really hoping the quality of the oils work out well in candles
