mulberrysoap Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 Hello, placing an order tomorrow with JS and here is my list. Can you let me know if any of these are not great throwers? I have searched and read lots of information but sometimes companies change their formula etc. I am using IGI 4794 tarts. BEAR CLAWS BB BLONDE MOMENT BB ORANGE SHERBET BB Vanilla Buttercreme Crunch Carrot Cake Fragrance Oil Caramel Cinnamon Latte Fragrance Oil BUTTERCREAM CRUNCH BB Cactus and Sea Salt Fragrance Oil Apple Butter - Nanas Old Fashioned Lemon Sugar Fragrance Oil Type Red Mac Apple - NEW Fragrance Oil Clean Cotton Fragrance Oil Flip Flops Fragrance Oil Chestnuts and Brown Sugar Fragrance Oil Vanilla Bean NOEL New Fragrance Oil Type Coconut Milk and Lavender Fragrance Oil I am also placing an order with Peaks for FOs, I spent a fortune on liquid colours and waxes and forgot to add some fos!! Peaks didnt give me a fo sample like they have in the past which was disappointing.:embarasse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justajesuschick Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 I liked a lot of what I tried at JS. In fact, I plan to order again soon. I will reorder some of what I got and then plan to add Blackberry Pie and VBN.I did not order but a few of those you have listed.I really like Nana's Apple Butter, Apple Butterscotch Cake, Banana Caramel Cupcake and Cinnamon Roll with Vanilla Cream Frosting. The Caramel Cinnamon Latte smelled like burnt popcorn to me. I have just ordered from my 19th supplier. I have a giant spreadsheet of FO's. I am happy to share my comments on any others, including those from Peak if you ever want another opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolphin146 Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 The Carrot cake is a really good one throws great in my wax. Most of what you picked are good ones The only one I diden't like was the oconut milk and lavender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mulberrysoap Posted February 17, 2013 Author Share Posted February 17, 2013 Thanks Jesuschick and Dolphin, I am going to take the plunge and go for it. Glad you like the carrot cake Dolphin :-)Jesuschick, I do not know anyone with such a detailed list of suppliers, I can see myself having to compile such a list lol :-) I will bear in mind about the caramel cin, burnt popcorn is not cool lolThanks so much for the feedback!!

justajesuschick Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 The spreadsheet is the only way I know how to compile. Otherwise, I could see myself ordering the same FO's over and over without remembering.FO preference is subjective. There are a number of suppliers many here with business order from and I may choose never to order from them again and the reverse can be said as well.Hope you find some that you LOVE!

dnj Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 The only one out of that list that I baught was Bear Claws less than a year ago but mine smells sweet. To my nose I smell more chocolate than anything else.I never put it in wax yet though. The only scent that's chocolate that sells well for me is KYs Hot Chocolate so it sits in my cabinet with my other fos that are waiting to be tested out in wax.Well now I'm curious and gona have to give it a test in wax.....soon There are a few on your list mulberry that I would like to try and would love to know your results Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
number2of7 Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 BEAR CLAWS BB -- doesn't smell like Bear Claws ((too much chocolate)) -- get the one from ICS...drool!! BLONDE MOMENT BB -- smells like sweet tart candy ... very good throw! Vanilla Buttercreme Crunch -- it's been one of my best sellers for years! Caramel Cinnamon Latte Fragrance Oil -- strong and delicious!! Cactus and Sea Salt Fragrance Oil -- my new personal favorite - so clean and fresh! Lemon Sugar Fragrance Oil Type -- this one is okay ... better suited for b&b Red Mac Apple - NEW Fragrance Oil -- LOVE this oil!! One of the best apple scents I've ever used. Flip Flops Fragrance Oil -- wasn't strong enough for my liking Chestnuts and Brown Sugar Fragrance Oil -- another year 'round favorite! Vanilla Bean NOEL New Fragrance Oil Type -- the absolute BEST vbn you'll ever find!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

number2of7 Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 The only Red Mac Apple I have ever used in wax is CS Mac Apple........would you say JS is better or stronger than CS version(if you ever used CS version?)I've never used the one from CS so I can't compare ... sorry :\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dnj Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 No biggie.......the CS version is so strong it fills a large room quick. I have 2 customers that won't buy anything but CS Mac Apple(candles and room spray)On my next JS order I'll get myself a sample to try Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoldieMN Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 I may try Just Scents as the Peak's sample I got were not to my liking except one. Now I'm afraid to try anymore. Just starting to make soy jar candles to sell. What would you suggest I sample from Peak's?I have been very pleased with most FO's from Aroma Haven that I sampled. Sometimes a little hard to distinguish what is different in a few of them even though they are definitely different. Amish Quilt is a favorite of mine. You?Goldie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeahRB Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 (edited) Oh don't shy away from Peaks. They have some real gems. I love french vanilla, french vanilla and amber, birds of paradise, blueberry muffin, warm apple pie, cinnamon buns, fruit slices, amish harvest, and red currant.Eta:.forgot to add lemon pound cake and honeysuckle.

Moneypenny Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 I have to agree that the Bear Claws does not smell like Bear Claws to me because of the chocolate! I get mine from ICS (Indiana Candle Supplies) and it is awesome in pure soy and soy blend alike! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
