Bumblebeebabe Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 I am doing a paraffin and also a parasoy blend both melts and containers. I am looking for a good Fragrance oil supplier. I normally make soap and body care and am pretty new to wax only been at it for about 4 months. I have found that a lot of the places I got oils for my body care don't seem to work as well in wax so I need to find better suppliers for wax. Any suggestions?

Scented Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Pay attention to the star ratings there. I think you will find several scents that you will like at a great price and good customer service too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belinda Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 From your list I've triedLemon Meringue-one of the best lemons I've foundBirthday Cake-good but I like Ky's better or PeaksPink Sugar-goodCoffee Bean-strong!Cherry Vanilla Swirl-goodCaramel Latte-really good. She does have some good coffee scents and so does Just Scent. I know these aren't on your list but these are some more of hers that are good that i've tried.If you like orange scents her orange bliss, orange caramel cake and orange chiffon cake are really good, especially orange caramel cake.Her sugar cookie dough is one of my favorites!Winter Berry is goodBear ClawsBlackberry Jam Butter CookiesCaramel Nut ClusterCaramel Creme BrûléeFresh Squeezed oranges-strongFrosted Sugar CookieWildberry Mousse-really good. Just like everyone else's country berry hotcakesHTHI was thinking of trying these from ICS Cherry Vanilla Swirl Lemon Meringue Luscious Vanilla Cream Cheese Frosting Coffee Bean Vanilla Hazelnut Coffee Birthday Cake Cotton Candy Pink Sugar Type Chocolate Covered Cherries Caramel Latte Toasted Marshmallow Chocolate Covered Strawberries Dulce de Leche aka Sugar Milk Serendipity Has anyone tried any of these scents?

Bumblebeebabe Posted December 18, 2013 Author Share Posted December 18, 2013 Thanks. I entry to try new vendors. I normally use NG, just scent, and Ah/Re. Am I missing a better vendor? I want strong good scents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justajesuschick Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 I do not have any ICS scents in my lineup. I did like their Lavender Laundry.You should definitely try Peak's FO's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bumblebeebabe Posted December 18, 2013 Author Share Posted December 18, 2013 I think I will be. Has anyone used crafters choice FO's wholesale supplies plus has a lot of their stuff but it is more spendy because of the no shipping I think. Is the product worth the money when you think that shipping is not an issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorelei Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Somewhere I reviewed quite a few of ICS fragrances on this board. Maybe if you do a search for ICS you will find that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone used crafters choice FO's wholesale supplies plus has a lot of their stuff but it is more spendy because of the no shipping I think. Is the product worth the money when you think that shipping is not an issue?Crafters Choice oils that WSP sells are another excellent choice. Tons of good oils out there from so many good suppliers. WSP does play price games at times & that turns many off. I see they lowered a number of their prices in the past year, compared to what they had been. But, yes, the oils are very good. Still trial & error in your own applications, though. Have fun! Edited December 18, 2013 by marcuset Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karen M Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 ICS has alot of great oils, also they are quick to ship, and I think a very good supplier. my favs are blueberry cheesecake, classic cinnamon buns, pink sugar, ST baked apples, ST cranberry orange spice, I probably have more but this is what I can think of now.

Bumblebeebabe Posted December 18, 2013 Author Share Posted December 18, 2013 I am looking for an amazing pistachio, a great serendipity, a cotton candy that does not smell like smoke and ashtray(some really smell nasty to me), pink sugar, blue sugar, and anything sweet are yummy lol. I have tried all of these scents from a few suppliers but I just want to try more to be sure I am getting the best. I wish shipping on testers was not so high. then I could order a few from a few different vendors at a time lol. I am mostly focusing on Vday scents and st paddys day and easter scents and then the ones I mentioned already. But I want the best. lol.

marcuset Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Ah, we all do. It costs plenty of $, though to find 'em. Catch in it, has sure been said by more eloquent folks than myself - if you try what one loves...may not work for you. Has happened to myself numerous times. The bottom line is there aren't any shortcuts if you want the best quality for your products. Wish there were:smiley2: All the best to you. I'm sure you will find excellent oils.

Bumblebeebabe Posted December 19, 2013 Author Share Posted December 19, 2013 I am OK with trying new vendors and having to do the work.I just fear buying from a total crap vendor and wasting time and money when I could have just asked someone if the supplier was bad. Lol but I guess it is true just because one person likes it does not mean I will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DayStar is big into vanillas, but she also has some good fragrances out there too. She used to have a pistachio something in her lineup and may still have it.
