    Trappeur, now you have got me wanting Iced Cranberry! Too bad I had already ordered, but will keep in mind for fall. I too like FB Mulberry. I got mostly fruity scents this go round: mango peach salsa Blue raspberry candy Watermelon candy Bite me Strawberry patch Fruit loops Volcano Dragon's blood November rain They we're out of blonde moment in lb. size, so will get some next time.

    It has been a few years since I ordered , but they shipped promptly. I used to soap Be Delicious, Butt Naked, Bed Time Bath,and Fantasy dupe. I haven't really tried many scents from them.

    Has anyone tried The Candle Source's Fresh Strawberry? I really liked Tennessee Candles , and wondering if it is similar. I ordered NG's fresh strawberry and don't like it as well as Tennessee's. I wanted to try Flaming Candles sweet strawberry, but it isn't skin safe:(

    You could make it using Distilled water, Dipropylene glycol, Fragrance oil modifier to get rid of clouding, and preservative.

    I 've had hits and misses with this company just like all the others I have ordered from. I agree toasted marshmallow smells more like rice crispy treats, but customers like it in lotion, bath bombs and it's a good thrower in my parasoy wax. It turned my homemade liquid soap almost black, so will not be soaping this fo. I got Great results using kudzu, strawberry cheesecake, cucumber sea salt and fruit loops in parasoy wax. For cp soap, black raspberry vanilla, cucumber melon, kudzu are all great sellers and easy to soap. Cotton candy, Aruba coconut, and peach magnolia raspberry were too light in wax Patchouli- don't like Love Spell- I haven't used in products yet due to weird chemical note Bite me is a very strong oil and have only used in bath bombs and customers love it. Blue raspberry jolly rancher and watermelon jolly rancher: I have only used in bath bombs and they sell out. Strawberry and Eucalyptus Spearmint both smell great oob, but have not used in products yet Amber Sandalwood: I do like oob, but have not gotten around to testing in products.

    MSC Cucumber and Sea Salt is a wonderful clean scent. It sort of reminds me of Salty Sea Air. I've only tried in parasoy melts, and it has a great throw.

    I need a good strong lemonade fo with no other fruity notes. Which supplier has the best?

    This comforting fragrance oil by Natures Garden is the scent of crisp, cool cucumbers, refreshing green aloe and a touch of fresh citrus blended together to create a scent as light as a summer breeze. Top Notes: lemon, orange, fresh mint Mid Notes: aloe, cucumber, fresh air

    Ng has aloe vera cucumber. I haven't tested in wax. I have only used in lotion and cp soap and it is a strong scent. Very clean like your in a garden if cucumbers.

    Fragrance buddy's IFRA is different than what AFI states. FB's True lavender type flashpoint is 200, same as TCS's. I don't have the IFRA on the original version. I will add it to my next FB order to compare.
  11. Shar
    TCS's True Lavender has a flash point of 200, and I notice AFI's true lavender type has a flashpoint of 133. I wonder if it is the same as the original version?Maybe Fragrance Buddy had AFI dupe this oil. I notice they have True Lavender on their site. Has anyone tried it to compare? I need a replacement for TCS's Love Spell too.

    Oh no, I just renewed mine through WSP's Handmade insurance last night.

    I put one of the tobacco carmels in the melter around lunch and it has been throwing good now for 10 hours. It was probably just my ol' sniffer not working.
  14. Shar
    Maybe I need to melt another of the tobacco caramel. Sometimes I get "candle nose" I normally use 10 % load when making melts unless it's a strong fo.

    I'm happy to hear MS's OMH is good and strong Kat! I haven't tried it yet and ordered during the sale. I like a lot of their oils so I figured it would be good.
  16. Shar
    Oh yes indeed, you need this lovely fresh scent for bath bombs and cp soap Scented!
  17. Shar
    I haven't used many scents from Flaming, but a must have for me is their Baja Cactus Blossom. I need to place another order just for this oil. I haven't tested it in wax, only bath bombs and other B& B products. I also use Tobacco Caramel and it is nice, but I agree with No2 of7, that it is so similar to Blue Sugar. I'm getting light/med throw in my parasoy melts.

    I really like Maple Street Candle's Gingerbread!

    I like Fragrance buddy's dupe of Moonworks Gypsy Rose .

    Kshaler, I agree with Jcandleattic.. I don't know if this could be your problem too, but I've had a problem with humidity so right after I make them I preheat oven 170, turn off and put the bath bombs in and keep them there overnight. You also might consider using half your oils in a hard butter such as cocoa butter, and maybe add some kaolin clay and/or cream of tartar to help harden.

    I put your sniffy in the mail today..
  22. Shar
    Yw, I made some wax melts using Blue Skies recently and it works great in parasoy. Like I said though, it has been so many years since I smelled Sand and Sable. I have a little bit of blue skies fo left if you would like me to send a cotton ball sniffy so you can compare.
  23. Shar
    It has been a long time since I've smelled the actual Cologne, but Blue Skies from Rustic Escentuals sure smells similar imo.
  24. Shar
    Butterscotch Brulee from Tennessee Candle is really good! That's the only butterscotch type fragrance that I've tried..it is strong and great longevity in my melts so I haven't tried any others.

    Another vote for Cs hazelnut coffee. I usually blend it with fresh brewed coffee 50/50 in my cp soap. I visited Flaming Candle today and Caramel Macchiato smelled delicious and strong oob.
