  1. I know right never thought I had it in me but that phrase you wrote really seriously hit me
  2. Okay - this Rocky Mountain thing has me super upset This is one of the scents I simply adore and never want to be without - most others I could take or leave pinion wood isn’t quite the same - you need to find me a Smokey pine 😂😂
  3. Love that idea scented Past…..without a past there is no present or future
  4. the forum has, for the most part, become an archive paying homage to ghosts of chandlers past. We are actually foreword thinking, ambitious people who aim to make the best products we can …This is speaking to me and hit me in an unexpected way if your not loving using your already known brand this could be an Avenue to pursue ghosts of chandlers past …. Now that phrase alone isn’t a good forum name but the idea and emotion behind it is strong
  5. I personally feel your business name Scenter Square fits this perfectly or least some of it should be in there It fits your brand and your vision for the future of the forum
  6. Out of this set I absolutely love love love the mandarin and myrrh - strawberry vine - sun ripened blackberry - strawberry rhubarb jam - fresh cut stems - blue hyacinth - garden herbs - artichoke & Kale and tangerine ginger I suppose I could make an entire line out of just those 😂 I am intrigued by the purple carrot and sage, clementine coriander and rainbow moss I dislike Santa amber and I’m not sure what to think of down to earth….definitely smells dirty - lol, I have never really tried a scent like that but can see a purpose as a mixer for sure sugar beets I’m at a loss - I have no clue what to think of this but can definitely see a use for it to make some amazing scent memory smells this garden herbs is the exact blender mint I’ve been searching for forever - think fresh water mint not the in your face mint or the nasty fake mints
  7. Certainly a lot of natures garden users according to the poll Can I ask the candle makers what it is about them that draws you in? Also what fragrance load are you having to use and do get a decent throw and clean burn?
  8. Pretty sure I do - I will check to make sure ….I know I have the reformulated one but I’m thinking I got me some original still
  9. Oh my goodness Jcake- that was a very long time ago 😂 I still have some of that oil believe it or not and I will stand by my opinion that is one of the best you can get from online retailer’s….you can smell the vanilla and cream in it with a hint of the Carmel - it’s a sweet vanilla and in soy candles I don’t remember a chemical note at all I have not used this in my coconut blend I use now, I have Made melts a year or so ago with some funky blend of waxes trying to use up the old crap and with that there is a definite chemical smell BUT I seriously think it’s the wax itself and not the fragrance we are talking vanilla bean Noel from wsp correct? 😂 Moonworks is out of business although PFO Carry’s most of them It’s one of the good ones for sure - wsp that is
  10. You got the good stuff- so greasy and sticky and annoying ….savor that stuff and if you don’t want it let me know I will take it 😂😂 I hated it so much until I actually started using it, coco 83 in slab and cube form is good as well but this sticky stuff for some reason just works and throws like a champ!
  11. Wsp Fraser fir is incredible it throws great in apricot and coconut waxes and very rest to work with very authentic fir scent without chemical notes
  12. Are you talking about the real greasy ones from calcandle? The ones you had to sit with the limited 2 cases in your cart until they said go and hope you got them? if so ….those are the best ever 😂 aside from the original original beads form from well over 6 years ago or more
  13. I am in the testing phase now of this wax….don’t love it but don’t hate it either it’s fairly easy to work with and doesn’t need other waxes added but of course I am just to see 🤷‍♀️ If you use clamshells your definitely going to want to do a second pour as they set up ugly and warped but I haven’t had this issue in silicone molds …yet I love how easy it is to work with being a 1 wax blend I love how hard they are and easy to pop out of any mold I love the throw it gives after a weeks cure I don’t love the texture of it…it’s a little gritty I don’t love that you have to wait about a week to smell anything cold throw wise I don’t love the smell of the wax out the bag or melting….it has a plastic like scent to it BUT that does disappear after cure It’s a little more effort blending waxes but I’m kinda liking the looks of the ones I do better than C55 so far have not added color to it yet….I’m going to in a few minutes actually just to see but I have a feeling it’s going to look a little frosty given the texture but the description says it takes color well with a smooth and creamy texture 🤷‍♀️ We will see
  14. Love the sea witch ….that’s a great oil I wonder if PFO realizes people are willing to pay more of need to be to keep their oils accessible- such a weird world we are in now
  15. Ha…yes I have a ton of csn11 wicks if anyone wants to purchase they work fabulous in palm in taller narrow vessels
  16. Yes fragrance buddy has MW dupes….before PFO announced they were buying MW I sent Samples to FB for duping …..they are very very close but the originals are better from PFO
  17. I always used 1 tablespoon per pound of wax with soy - it helped so much with smooth tops and throw imo… I haven’t touched it in years since switching wax but today I’m making some big bowls up for patio big candles and I’m breading it out again to use up some of this old wax sitting here
  18. This is so funny to look back at I don’t use CS much anymore at all and I don’t JS at all- and well peak is gone 🤷‍♀️ things change drastically over 9 years time 😂
  19. I’m not a seller on Etsy but I buy a lot from that site - various things I may not be the norm but for me I don’t even look at shipping …..shipping is life and shipping is expensive and if I want something bad enough it is what is I only look at quality, presentation and how well the seller responds to me if I have questions I have heard the buzz about sales being so competitive on there and shipping being a biggy for people so you might have to play around with it some and see what draws more interest
  20. I think it was millcreek but arctic air is very nice and it was one of those suppliers that had a good cherry lemonade ….I think 🤔
  21. Htp work very with clarus wax which is comparable to 6006….so they say, I myself have never used 6006 did you find the thread with wick testing in a pan? Saves a lot of time to narrow down your series that work
  22. Your welcome I will be shocked if you don’t end up with at least 10 out of all those that are keepers what wax do you use? All the ones I mentioned did excellent in 415 soy and I’ve tried some of them in coconut with success
  23. I used Moonworks a lot….the sugar cookie is amazing and that speaks volumes for someone that hates foody scents 😂 sea witch is one of my all time favorites witches brew is excellent- I love love this one- it’s a must have lavender sage is hands down the best herbal scent I ever used pops pipe is wonderful and makes an excellent mixer I didn’t care for earthen oak but didn’t really give it a fair chance - I bet it would make an amazing blend also Guinevere’s attraction was potent but not in my lane patchouli passion was nice and there was another fragrance that is exactly like this one I can’t remember offhand which one but I made note of it in here somewhere many years ago- another excellent one is pinion pine - it’s like cs mistletoe - I am still on the fence ordering 10 lbs because they are not offering it right now and gypsy rose if they have that one or ever bring it back ….amazing
