Jcandleattic Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 (edited) Here's a short list - there are many many more out there!

ktaggard Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 I use so many FOs suppliers, it's not funny. Right now, I am loving Fillmore Container's FOs. I've only tested a few, but they have all been great. My favorite fo suppliers are MMS (Majestic Mountain Sage), Backwoods, and Peaks. I also like a few from The Candle Source and Candle Science. Oh, and I'm really starting to like Pure Fragrance Oil, too. The list could go on. Not sure I'm much help here. Flair- just a word of warning - you might want to stop yourself before you go looking at other suppliers. Addiction will follow!!! And you will find yourself trying every supplier you hear about, just to make sure you are not missing out on something. it's terrible, but fun. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonshine Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 I agree- branch out carefully! LolI had so many 1 ouncers from everywhere that I knew I would not use and some went really and eating thru the containers that I had to ditch about 10 pounds worth of samples There are so many suppliers out there and everyone hates to try just one and so the carts become full and it's a vicious cycle....If I could do it all over again I would have stuck with just a handfulI use probably around 14 or more suppliers! Here are a few of my favsElementsCandlescienceMillcreekFillmore containerPeakJust scentOregon trailsDaystarIndiana candle supplyFragrance buddyPure fragrance oilsWholesale supplies plusNatures gardenSweetcakesThat's 14!

Belinda Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 I'm with everyone else! I wish I could do it over and save myself a ton of money! My favorites are:Natures GardensCandle SciencePeaksJust Scent-If you get a good oil from her, it's really good, but a lot of hers are weak in my opinion, so if you place an order here you need to ask advice on good oils first.CandlewicWholesale supplies plus-has become one of my new favorites!DaystarFragrance BuddyCandle SourceThe Candle Makers StoreAztec 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justajesuschick Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 How are you all forgetting Rustic Escentuals??? (Okay, maybe you posted them and I am just overlooking!)Add that one to the list!

puma52 Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Definitely add Cajun Candles to the list too! Love Candle Science, Peak, Indiana Candle Supply, Wholesale Supplies Plus, Rustic Escentuals, Candlewic, Nature's Garden, Sweetcakes , Candle Cocoon. So MANY awesome suppliers....WE are SO fortunate!! where to start huh Flair? Let me tell ya....you WILL find favorites at every single supplier you buy from! Pumpkin Pie and Pumpkin Souffle are wonderful from Candle Science. Spiced Orange, Cinnamon, Fudge Brownie and Memories of Christmas and others are awesome from Cajun. Pumpkin Spice Chutney, Cedar Garland, Creamy Chai Latte, Daffodil, Christmas Tree , Nutmeg and Ginger , Cocoa Therapy I have loved from Fillmore and have another order coming in this week w/Cinnamon Cider, more Cedar Garland, more Christmas Tree, more Creamy Chai Latte, Citrus and Spruce and Lavender , Sage and Rosemary. Also for Fall and Autumn scents from Bitter Creek South...try their Pumpkin Cheesecake and their Harvest...always best sellers for me this time of year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktaggard Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 This thread is making me laugh. I have ordered from every supplier listed in here, except Mill Creek and Elements. Oh no, am I missing something really special with those two? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonshine Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 You absolutely are! LolExcellent fragrances...I had never ordered from Fillmore before and now I am hooked! We are all enablers here....if I could stop reading about FO's I would stop trying new places...and what really stinks is a few of those suppliers I only use 1 or 2 fragrances but then I would have to buy more and test more to condense! It never ends 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was trying to use up old FO's that seem to still be good before I order anymore, however, that didn't work out, I ordered anyway 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jcandleattic Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 I've been proud of myself lately. My main motivator & driver for trying new suppliers or ordering more scents is because there is a scent I've never smelled, or it's new and exciting, so even though I do still order new FO's, it's nowhere near the volume I used too. I've started becoming a true mad scientist and have started mixing my scents to create something truly unique and new.I love it!Scent blending is soooo much fun, and when you get it right - man is that a great feeling. (and smell!)Sometimes when you *think* you got it wrong, the end result in product can surprise you. (That's happened a few times too) And then there are the times you take a whiff of your creation and think "oh dear, what in the world was I thinking" and the combo quickly gets the axe. LOL 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
