ChandlerWicks Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 I like Butterscotch Pudding! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belinda Posted July 29, 2014 Author Share Posted July 29, 2014 I have that one and you're right, it's good! Haven't poured it in awhile though! I think I'll have to get that one out this week! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 (edited) Well I have the mahogany spice, but haven't done anything with it. I use a few of their oils. I believe others would say their shortbread and snicker doodle ones should not be overlooked. In bath bombs, we've used the pink sangria and peach bellini. Both are delicious. Their Paris Amore seemed pretty realistic to me compared to BBW. While I do really like their bay laurel, it's not a mover in our neck of the woods. I do like their grapefruit jasmine and few others. Oh and Voodoo Love is nice in paraffin. With you bringing up this topic, I think it's time to pull that canella bark out and make it along with mahogany spice. How I wish I could get in on this sale ... maybe I'll lose my mind and do so anyway lol ... I want to try some of their other FOs. The ginger and frankincense, the mandarin sandalwood, nutmeg and cedar, november rain as does the smoked apple wood have me curious ... dang, dang, dang.

Belinda Posted July 29, 2014 Author Share Posted July 29, 2014 Scented, I hope I haven't caused you too much stress! I know how we FO hoarders are about sales LOL! I hope you get to take advantage of it. You may as well go ahead. You know you'll be miserable till you do I'm so sorry to be such an enabler!

Candybee Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Don't have anything to add. I don't buy FOs from Candlewic but I should. They are close to me and I sometimes pick my wax up at their showroom/factory. Any FOs you know make great CP soap feel free to add that info.

Scented Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 (edited) The Paris Amore, jasmine & grapefruit and grapefruit and blackberry are the ones I've soaped without a problem. I have a few others I really ought to try out ... I just can't seem to get to them dang it. I was born six arms too short I think.

se2653 Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Sugared Vanilla Shortbread, Spiced Cider, Pumpkin Ginger Streusal, Butterscotch Pudding, Red apple peel- I liked those in my melts, not sure about soap yet... (wish I could order more, but I have vowed to get through my samples and current stash first, which doesn't usually happen!) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 What does the Paris Amore smell like? I am intrigued. The sugared vanilla shortbread and pumpkin ginger streusal sound really good! Always looking for an interesting take of vanilla and I love ginger blends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megandgarr Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Their Sugared Vanilla Shortbread, Pumpkin Ginger Streusel and Pumpkin Harvest Chai are all awesome. PGS is great on its own and as a mixer. Their Black Raspberry Vanilla & Blueberry Pie are both great (and smell just like CS version) and Maple Buttered Syrup smells delicious. I also like Salted Caramel and Storm Watch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Paris Amore description from B&BW: Top Notes: Sparkling Mandarin, Petite Strawberry, Cassis, Sparkling Pink Champagne, Apple Blossoms, Dewy FreesiaMid Notes: Luscious Peach, Jasmine Petals, French Tulips, Water Lily, FrangipaniDry Notes: French Vanilla, Coconut Milk, Amber Wood, Sandalwood, Creamy Musk Now what you smell out of this is a perfumed fruity floral blend. It's rather warm and inviting, but the musk and amber are the primary dry notes that come through Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorelei Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I've never ordered from them, hoping to avoid another supplier more than anything but you know I'll give in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonshine Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Pomegranate Henri Bendel is very nice- I only make candles and melts and it throws great I also mix it with their lemon at 76/25 for a wonderful fresh clean scentI have other samples but have not tested them yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lorelei Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 I haven't finished looking but Poinsettia Pine and Red Apple Peel look good I have them written down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belinda Posted August 2, 2014 Author Share Posted August 2, 2014 Oooooh, Poinsettia Pine sounds intriguing. I may have to make another order before the sale goes off! They were out of pumpkin chai when I ordered and that was the main one I wanted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faerywren Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Their mahogany spice is a component in one of my blends. I just love it! I also love their Peaches and Sweet Berries. It's one of the best I've smelled. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Poinsetta Pine does sound good. I was looking for a nice poinsetta for the holidays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
number2of7 Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 I'm a sucker for buying oils by the pound that I've never tried before -- we won't talk about my wasted money....instead, we'll talk about the ones that made it worth my risk I did get Smoked Applewood and Poinsettia Pine. Both are wonderful oils in parasoy!! As for November Rain, I purchased a sample of that one once upon a time -- it's just meh. I've never smelled the original so I'm not sure how close it is. I personally love Nutmeg & Cedar -- it's just one that I couldn't move with our customers. I also got some samples of their Glade dupes -- I haven't put them into wax yet, but OOB I really liked Angel Whispers and Cashmere....something....woods, maybe? Anyway, hope this helps!

nursenancy Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Autumn Leaves is awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belinda Posted August 7, 2014 Author Share Posted August 7, 2014 Nursenancy, I tried placing another order yesterday and Autumn Leaves was in my cart but apparently you can only use the sale coupon one time! I may have to get a friend to place an order for me and I'll just give her the money for it. I really wish they accepted pay pal! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
