  1. Ok I think I know the answer to this but I am going to ask anyway. I have my main scents that i sell down and I know that they perform as they should. What I want to know is if I'm buying FO from (let's say Candle Science that is known to test in soy and has truthful ratings on their site as far as I know) do I still need to go through a testing phase for a new FO that has proven to work in soy? *hiding*

    I'm small and just starting out and would like to offer some special one time scents but I don't think I have the cash flow to go through testing again and again.

    I know I'm about to get killed here and I think the answer is NO but I still wanted to ask. TIA! Don't hit me to hard please. *dead horse*

  2. I found this description at Fragrance Oil Finder from the supplier Pine Meadows.

    It says: Woodberry- "You'll love this refreshing, great outdoors scent reminiscent of a berry breeze in a lush hardwood forest."

    Does that describe what you have?

  3. UPDATE: after letting the my candle cure for 5 days here are the results of my 1st burn.

  4. Hey everyone! Let's play a game taking 4 FO or EO and tell a story. It can be any combination you want from spring to Christmas Scents. Think of more about a collection of scents that tell a story or invoke a memory of a certain special time during the year. I'll start

    Ocean Waters

    Summer Herb Garden

    Strawberry Rhubarb Pie

    Watermelon

    That's what memories I have when I think about summers as a kid.
