FaithfulScenter Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 (edited) I love a good Blackberry scent, I don't want anything cheesecake, but maybe a jam, or hotcake, compote, something! I've not came across anything that sounded amazing. Any suggestions?? Edited January 9, 2013 by FaithfulScenter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenn624 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 CS has Blackberry Marmalade, it smells very nice. If I remember right, it threw very well in parasoy too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justajesuschick Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 I am looking as well! This is a thread that I posted a bit ago. Perhaps you will see some there.http://www.craftserver.com/forums/showthread.php?107091-Blackberry-Jam-from-candlemaker-s-store-is-yummy.-Blackberry-that-you-recommend&highlight=blackberry+justajesuschickAs a consumer, I got one from Haley's Heavenly Scents that was so strong I could only have a small piece in the warmer and I like them strong! I have not found one as good. It was called Bodacious Blackberry so it made me wonder if it was the Blackberry Pie form JS's Bodacious line. I hate to order a pound and be wrong. I have not yet placed a Daystar order so have not tried that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaithfulScenter Posted January 9, 2013 Author Share Posted January 9, 2013 Hmmm, I have heard a lot about Daystar lately. Maybe it's time I give them a try. What's another supplier lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8-GRAN-ONES Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 I love OOB Daystars Blackberry Jam, but in my GB 415 it does not throw well..I have used AH Blackberry Crisp..it does good in my soy wax..to my nose, it is kind of tart smelling..I don't get a lot of crust smell..But I would get just a sample to try out first...Everyone smells different components in a fragrance..

EccoLights Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 The only blackberry we even carry is NG's Blackberry Sage and it's on the upper half on our sales list. Does very well in parasoy tarts and soy candles for us as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justajesuschick Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 My problem is that I want a sweet Blackberry. No orange nor herbal mix. JUST Blackberry. Seems hard to find. I have been searching for months! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EccoLights Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Again, we only carry that one blackberry so I have never really looked for one... but dang if you're not right! Lots of blends of blackberry but very few plain blackberry scents... Seems the simple scents are the hardest to find at times... Good luck!

FaithfulScenter Posted January 9, 2013 Author Share Posted January 9, 2013 JaJC, that's the same thing I'm looking for! But I am going to try Daystars, I've just got to find some other FO's to try from there to make it worth the shipping!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8-GRAN-ONES Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 if you get a sample pack from DS..to try out...I don't think their shipping is bad.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaithfulScenter Posted January 9, 2013 Author Share Posted January 9, 2013 That's what I was planning on doing, shipping is $7, plus the $25 for the sample pack, so that's $3.20 an ounce. But of course if I like them, I'll be purchasing more, and I'm sure it will equal out to less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest OldGlory Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Blackberry from AH/RE does great in 464, very strong.Northcountry Blueberry is very good in 464 too. Also from AH/RE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmhoneybear Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 (edited) Almost positive that you are talking about Front Porch's Bodacious Blackberry. She just stopped selling FOs, so looks like none of us can get any more. :-( I had a small amount and it was great alone and as a blender. I have tried both Haley's Heavenly Scents' Blackberry scents and Front Porch's Blackberry scents. Both smelled exactly the same to my nose.

Haley's got some of her oils from Miami Erie/Front Porch so that is likely it. Edited January 9, 2013 by justajesuschick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justajesuschick Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) Well, I am going to have to place some orders conduct a Blackberry thrown down! Thanks! Edited January 10, 2013 by justajesuschick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Oh Candlewic has a grapefruit and blackberry scent that's lovely in the bottle and better be in soap lol. Blackberry Jam butter cookies from Day-Star, still a very drinkable scent. I have a fragrance called white oak and will be mixing a blackberry with it. Maybe you might have a good woodsy scent to try that combo out with? The ol' blackberry sage was once really good. I wish I still had some pine needle. I'd probably try it mixed that way too.

Luci Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Definitely Blackberry Jam Butter Cookies from Daystar and Blackberry Marmalade from CS. Another that I haven't bought in a while but plan to is Blissful Blackberry from AH. I find blackberry very sensual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorelei Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Blackberry Jam Butter Cookies rocks in my 415. I love it! Blackberry Marmalade CS is amazing too. These are the two that I know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justajesuschick Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Since I was placing an order with NG, I tossed Blackberry Bling Bling (stupid name) and Blackberry Jam in 1 ouncers in. I will give you a report OOB and send sniffies if you like. I decided against just ordering a bunch of one ounce bottles of Blackberry from a bunch suppliers and am planning to attack Blackberry a bottle at a time as I reorder from places.

FaithfulScenter Posted January 12, 2013 Author Share Posted January 12, 2013 I agree, Blackberry Bling Bling sound ridiculous, if it's the winner, it's a definite name change! I'm planning to order from Daystar, but still not sure about the other scents to get. I need to get something masculine to make some more soap for DH.

Lorelei Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 I've tried a lot of the scents from Daystar so if you want if I've tried them I can tell you about them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justajesuschick Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Lorelei-I, personally, would LOVE that!I keep going to the site, start writing scents down and then I get overwhelmed. Perhaps because I am trying to build sampler sets and there are so many classifications from which to choose. I prefer traditional scents. Apple, Pumpkin, Cinnamon, Vanilla/Marshmallow/Cake and Fruit scents. I'd love to know any you, or customers of yours who are traditional like me, prefer in these categories. I know to add their Blackberry to my list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaithfulScenter Posted January 13, 2013 Author Share Posted January 13, 2013 That would be awesome Lorelei! I'm going to try to sit down and put together a list, but like JaJC, every time I do I just get overwhelmed and quit. And I had a list somewhere, but now I can't find it lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
