  1. Thanks Belinda! I was hoping they were the same oil:)
  2. A lot of fruity scents are popular for me such as: Black raspberry vanilla Coconut Lime Caribbean Coconut Georgia Peach Winter Candy Apple Blue Raspberry Jolly Rancher Watermelon jolly rancher Volcano Love Spell Blonde Moment
  3. I was impressed with the oob strength of the scent as well. I had plenty redwood cedar on hand or would have purchased. I like FB's dupe too and usually buy from them during sales and they have free shipping if you spend$100. I wish Flaming had sales other than new introductory fragrances.
  4. I've never tried tea and cakes from FB. Thanks for recommending mint choc chip- will keep in mind.
  5. I like Fragrance buddy's volcano dupe best, but running low and seems they are not offering a Labor Day sale like previous years:( I have some fruit slices from Tennessee Candles in the closet and just compared the two and quite similar to my nose.
  6. Belinda, would you consider Flaming's pumpkin apple butter to be interchangeable with NG's version? Thanks!
  7. I like Baja Cactus Blossom for all priducts, Beautiful day for b& b ( light scent throw for me in wax), I recently bought sweet strawberry as was recommended- I like it in wax, beachwood, tobacco caramel. I haven't purchased Flaming's Redwood and cedar before, but smelled of it when I was visiting their showroom before and in my opinion it smells similar to Tennessee Candles and so does Fragrance Buddy's version.
  8. I only got samples of those during the sale. Aspen Winter is another that I poured but haven't tested yet. I've been sick with a cold so my sniffer is not working great, I just smelled the melt, pine and citrus notes mainly, medium scent strength.
  9. I made wax melts this past week with elderflower & moss but haven't tested it yet. I'm just not crazy about the scent though. I did test sea grass and sand dunes and like it.
  10. Wow, that' s a bunch of great looking soaps! I am so behind, but got 8 batches made earlier this week. 4 batches of OMH and some other restocks. I have come down with a cold, so my soaping marathon will have to wait.
  11. It smells like sweet tarts candy to me. Berry tarts, fruity tarts, candy tarts, rainbow tarts.Idk, I'm not so good with names.
  12. Yes indeed, and report back here and let us know which you liked the best
  13. I remember trying Narcissist when NG first introduced the scent and didn't like it on it's own in soap, and it faded quite a bit. Wish I had a scratch n sniff to smell your blend, sound really nice! I've started to buy Pheromones many times, lol.. Off to NG site to take a peak
  14. Have you tried pumpkin apple butter? I love it for fall and it is strong! Another is Christmas Cabin:)
  15. I like this one too in all B & B products, but haven't tried in wax.
  16. I just mixed up a little alcohol and peach sunset mica and painted the top one of my melts and it works, and dries fast.
  17. That's Beautiful! it looks like cosmetic micas I use in soap and bath bombs. For bath bombs you can blend a little 91 rubbing alcohol and paint on the bath bombs. You might could try it on wax possibly, but I'm not sure.
  18. I think a good strong quality oil is the key. I like to blend other high melt point waxes with 4630.I have tried Flaming's problend 450 and 600 parasoy too, and liked those pretty good with the 4630. I like ky143 too! I still love to experiment with blends.. Last week I put 3 lbs ky143, 2 lbs 4630, and 1 lb. Pillar of bliss in the presto pot and one of the scents I used was snc birthday cake sample I had from AH/RA and was amazed that it lasted for 3 days non stop in my warmer! I got tired of smelling it and changed it out.. I Love Mango Sorbet from WSP too! It's expensive, but a must have for me so I always stock up on this one when they have a good sale.
  19. For those , I think I used 1/3 each of NG pillar of bliss, 4630, 4625 and they lasted a long time. Glad you liked it! What wax did you use? I bet it smelled so good blended with pineapple!
  20. How exciting! Have a great time, and let us know which one you like!
  21. Awesome soap! That mold sure makes a ton of soap! Great job!
  22. Nice Happy soap:) I just got in Dragon's Blood from Fragrance Buddy yesterday and I think it is my new favorite version.
  23. I too use polyolefin on a roll for my scalloped melts and for bar soap and bath bombs. I usually order mine on eBay.
  24. Thanks Trappeur, I use a parasoy blend, and I don't think anyone will mind the discoloration as long as it throws like a champ!
