Shar Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Which supplier carries your favorite version of this scent. I've tested several in cp soap over the years and I like BCN bubbles n light version the best, but hate to rely on just one supplier for this fo. Any other great dupes? Thanks!

Shar Posted June 4, 2015 Author Share Posted June 4, 2015 Thanks! I hate just relying on one supplier for a scent..BCS going oob has me concerned that BCN may have problems down the road. I just got a sample from AFI that I will be testing out too. BCN's BNL version really shines in cp soap and is a great seller.. Many I've tried are on the sweet side, morph or fade.

Stick with BNL's version! I never found another one that was as good. BCN isn't going anywhere, they are a pretty major player in supplies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shar Posted June 4, 2015 Author Share Posted June 4, 2015 Thanks Chris! I just used up the last of my BCN cuc melon, so thought I'd ask before reordering..I have FB's Cuc Melon that's pretty decent, but still like BCN's better. I think I will use FB in a blend..Maybe with mint.Any other must have fo's from BCN that you recommend for cp with good staying power?These are some others I use:Clean Cotton BNLMac AppleCasablanca LIly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
se2653 Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 I've used Peak's Cucumber Canteloupe in lotion, and it works well, long lasting. I still have to try it in my melt and pour soap, but in lotion I really like it. Not sure how it compares to the BBW version. I prefer this one over Peak's Cucumber Melon too. Just passing along. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisR Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 I don't use BCN for many of my CP soaps anymore, but the Cucumber Canteloupe, Fuzzy Navel and Wick Your Wax Vanilla Grapefruit are all great in soap and pretty good sellers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 Cucumber Melon from Tradewinds was my absolute fav! I have yet to find one that compares. They one I had been using was from Tony's/SGS so I assume Pure Fragrance oils carries it now but haven't checked. Every now and then it comes back into popularity. Not so popular at the moment but it will make a comeback I'm sure. You can't beat a great classic! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faerywren Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 BBW is re-introducing 21 "classic" scents, including Cucumber Melon. This one will no doubt get popular again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shar Posted June 13, 2015 Author Share Posted June 13, 2015 I heard this news as well:) Cucumber Melon is popular for me in cp soap and lotion using Bitter creek BNL version. I did test AFI BbW in a sample and it's a pretty good dupe imo. I don't need 10 lbs. though. I know I did not like WSP'S version! Doesn't smell accurate and has a yucky chemical note in my soap.
