  1. I agree - that does sound like had you not called, you'd still be waiting for an unknown amount of time. There was another thread about BCN customer service issues...the BCN owner wanted to be alerted to the problems ... I think contact info was posted in the thread. If I can locate it, I will email/pmail it to you

  2. It's more everything! Love it! It is much stronger chili pepper than I've ever smelled in Sweet Orange Chili Pepper. I'd say the chili dominates over the orange.

    Wow, Beth! I don't seem to get the chili more than the orange when I sniff it (and if I recall NG's correctly, I think I did get that "zap" of powdery chili spice heat from theirs)...

    But yes, I really like this CS, Iron. It's juicy, sort of with the sweet spray of peel coming off the orange (but not a sour rind smell at all). Fresh, good. Get you some!! :-)

  3. I love cs. There are many I have not tried and quite a few I have. I would like to start a review of their scents in three words or less...here goes mine!

    Green tea lemongrass-weak, blah, lemony

    Rainwater - lily, fresh, spring

    Cool citrus basil - soapy, floral, lemony

    Apple harvest - fall, spice, true

    Brandied pears - sweet, weird, oaky

    Chardonnay - fake, grapey, ugh

    Beach linen - cotton, fresh, clean

    Pecan pie - weird, weak, nutty

    Vanilla hazelnut - nutella meets vanilla!

    Violet lime - sweet, strong floral

    Rosemary - resinous, woodsy, heavy

    Scotch pine - fresh, resinous

    Lavender - nice, powdery, mixer

    Lime cooler - blah, fake sweet

    Lemon verbena - lemony pledge, herbal

    Coffee - chocolate, rich

    Chocolate - fake fudge

    Pumpkin pie - true, rich, spicy

    Cranberry marmalade - berries, orange, nice

    Pomegranate cider - weird, fruit

    Sea mist - cheap, rose

    Hawaiian breeze - tropical, heavy, ugh

    Cinnamon stick - spicy, clove, rich

    Grapefruit mangosteen - fresh, bright sweet

    Yellow rose - true, delicate, herbal

    Caribbean teakwood - rich, woodsy, smooth

    Baby powder - true, sweet fresh

    Tuscan melon apricot - summer, sweet, honey

    Black raspberry vanilla - fake sweet horrible

    Very vanilla - sweet strong

    Frankincense myrrh - aftershave heavy musky

    White tea - jasmine, citronella, herbal

    Basil herb - fresh, parsley, spring

    This is all I can think off for now. I am curious to see thoughts on other cs fragrances I haven't tried.

    Here's the ones I got, might not be able to give 3 words though:

    Blackberry Marmalade - prune juice

    Mango Tangerine - rotten, rich/heavy

    Strudel/Spice - cinnamon sugar cake

    Cranberry Marmalade - potpourri spice

    Smoke/Odor - spicy gum

    cotton tree - soapy

    orange chili pepper - peeling an orange

    tuscon melon/apricot - rotten fruit

    day at the spa - lemon and cotton sheets

    fig tree - men;s after shave splash

    rainwater - very light - china rain/feminine

    lemon verbena - furniture polish

    lemon chiffon - cinnamon and lemon pledge

    peach nectar - thick, rich, rotten

  4. I don't have a name for you but had to comment.

    when I saw the title in this post I thought you wanted to rename "laughing my A** off" (LMAO) made me LMAO when I read the rest if the post. :)

    LOL! LMAO too. haha

    Thanks for the popsicle name suggestions. That type of thing is what it makes me think of.

    I really like Farmer's Market too! Will read that thread now. Thanks, everyone!

  5. Can anyone help me think of a rename for Lick Me All Over?

    I brought a one-ouncer to work and had a few people it and tell me what they thought and they all said "Flowers". I thanked them for their feedback but it just doesn't work for me. :tiptoe:

    It's fruity and sweet to my nose, but I just can't think of anything.... thanks!

  6. Thanks.

    I have seen Sweet Cakes mentioned on this board in the past, but have never tried them. Hm. So if I got a sample of their fig, are there other FOs I should try out? I'm a sucker for trying new ones... :whip:

  7. Oh, you are SO kind for offering to do that, but I don't want to trouble you!

    I haven't tried MW's Sweet Fig, but I actually have to place an order for a few pound bottles from her soon anyway - so I will certainly get a sample in my order.

    Thanks so much for the suggestion and the offer to help me! :smiley2:

  8. I have been asked to make a plain Fig candle/tart for my dear friend's sister.

    I see that many suppliers offer fig, but is there a real "oh yeah - that's FIG!" fig FO out there? (The BCN I have isn't true to my nose...)

    Thanks
