Bitter Creek's WYW

[kate772]

Are Bitter Creek's WYW fragrances really strong enough that you only need to use 1/2 the normal amount? I really like some of them but they are a bit pricey if I'll still need to use my normal 10%.

Thanks.

From my experience 1/2 the usual amount works just fine! I usually use 3% in palm.

I've only tested a couple, but, yes, I only needed 3% in paraffin.

Yes. It is true. Like all suppliers, not all their scents throw great in my wax, but the ones that do I only use half the amount.

Which ones are worth trying, if you don't mind sharing. TIA.

For me Bamboo, Perfect Pumpkin, Fig Pudding are really strong. HTH.

Just ordered samples. Darn you all !!!!!! I'm excited to try them, though!

I did try the Bamboo and it is doing great at about 5% in C-1.

They are wonderful and do work very well in soy at 1/2 oz per pound! My favorites are Buttery Gingerbread, Sage and Citrus, Buttercream Crunch, and Honeydew Melon! They are to die for in 100% soy and well worth the money!!

Still waiting on my samples. Guess I need to get on the phone!!!!

I just tested the Perfect Pumpkin, forgot it was the WYW, and mixed at 7.5%, and it was very strong, and lasted a long time.... will try at at a lower % to check strength and longevity.. but really loved this scent!
