I, too, am a major fan of BNL/BCN Cucumber Melon. the old Alabaster carried Cucumber Melon also and to my nose it was exactly the same of BNL/BCN. I have not tried Community Candle's CM since their taking over Alabaster, but she did say her oils are the same. Anyway -- since Community has so many great ones, I just wanted to mention that the CM might be worth a sample.
BTW - are there any strong "true" non-candy watermelons out there?

BCS has Ambrosia (I've never used it....)
-
Just saw these follow up replies ...
Awesome, thanks - good to know that it WILL work if I play around with my combos.
It smells so fantastic!
-
I was very disappointed! Horribly weak. I might have just picked the two weak ones of the whole lot.
Mandarin Peach and Nutmeg Ginger. Great OOB, but totally nothing in a lit candle.

BCN has Cupid on sale this month.
-
Not sure what goes on with Facebook, but when I get the sale e-mails, I always wish I could delete that pompous photo icon of his. :rolleyes2

I'm pretty sure NG carries a chamomile, but I don't know if it would be like the one you're used to .....

if you reconsider placing an order, try their Mango Papaya. Fresh and strong!

Wish I could help you, r - but I never ordered from them....

Well, the other day I did a Q Tip test of several FOs suggested by rctfavr3 (including MW's Sugar Cookie Royale) and it smelled awesome in the jar. Made a candle from it and the cold throw is nada. Will burn it over the weekend to see if anything good comes from it.
But I do have to order from Candle Source soon, so I will check into that ButterScotch Candies.
If nothing ends up working, I will just make my toffee be a coffee based scent.
Thanks everyone!

Hey thanks rctfavr3. I think I have samples of all those FOs you mention so I'll see if I hit on something.
Thanks!

Hello. Is there a good toffee or Werther's candy out there?

Not yet... but I do hope that makes the other notes come alive! I'm really trying to find that baked/buttery/sweet crispy note. now I am hungry

Try Community Candle Supply. I think it's renamed "Shakespeare's Dream" or something. I've gotten it in the past and it's very nice.
-
I have this, too. First impression is that it's just a vanilla smell? I am not picking up a 'cookie' from this one. Kinda sad. :undecided
-
Definitely pick up a sample of Country Christmas. It's so good!
-
I would suggest Home Sweet Home, Creme Brulee or Butter Crunch (smell the same to me), Kudzu, Country Clothesline (smells like NG's Fresh Linen).
-
Maybe next time you should think twice before asking for "everyone's opinions" to then just turn around and act pompous to those who give opinions you don't like.
I still stand by what I told you. It depends and I prefer the suppliers who offer a choice. You don't like to hear that? Oh well

I like Scarlet Moon - smells like a dark berry to my nose
watermelon or cucumber melon?

I have not tried CS's watermelon, but I have to make a purchase soon, so I will definitely add a sample in. Thank you for the info!
