Candybee Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 Hopefully it will be back in stock. I find it hard to believe they would discontinue patchouli. Its so poplular. Could be wrong thou. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TallTayl Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 I would be interested in 3lbs of the patchouli from lebermuth. Count me in!!It seems out of stock right now, but i a, keeping an eye on it. If it does not come back, i am going to have it duped by my trusted lab. It takes about 6 months to do that though..... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallTayl Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Thought i'd share a recent patchou success. I have a few kilos of aged dark patchouli from liberty naturals purchased a few years ago. It is not uber thick yet, but it has aged well. made an 8 oz deep tin of C3 scented at 6% wicked just one size up and am very happy! Burned well, HT was acceptable.Ct was acceptable. I think i'll just stick with my EO until some FO comes available at a reasonable price that performs at least as well. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nursenancy Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I think you can still get it from Lebermuth if you order 25 pounds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just use the aged EO from Liberty anytime I need a hint of Patchouli. Patchouli FO just doesn't do it for me. I'm glad someone else here has had success burning Patchouli EO in candles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coffeebean Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 I think I will give FB a test in my wax. I still have some Moonworks, but I want to find another replacement before I run out. I found that FB smelled the closest to my Moonworks, just hope it throws as well... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehatch1 Posted February 21, 2016 Author Share Posted February 21, 2016 Coffeebean - I'm interested to hear what you think about the FB patch! Still liking my BA patch, but there's just something compelling me to try more options. I may have a problem. Just ordered some from Candle Cocoon (along with vanilla voodoo - excited to try that!). Sooo, so far with patchouli I have tried: 1) Nature's Garden - Too perfume-y. Very fake. 2) Fillmore - Scent was more true. Cold throw decent, hot throw not so great (so far - I'll keep working with it). 3) Bulk Apothecary - STRONG! Overwhelming oob, but after curing is tolerable & much more earthy. (My husband says it smells like dirt, but in a good way - which is high praise coming from him! lol). Great cold & hot throw. 4) Aztec - Haven't put it in wax yet, but oob it smells VERY sweet. Very much like vanilla or honey. Not sure what I think about that. Meh. 5) Candle Cocoon - review forthcoming... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AL83 Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 Save On Scents has an 'Indonesian Patchouli' FO that smells just like Patchouli to me and also burns like a charm. I always use it whenever I'm not using Patchouli EO in candles. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I found it years ago, I never looked back and tried any others after such a long time search. Totally rich and awesome and with CC oils you use much less oil. Trappeur I know this was posted a while ago, but wanted to say that I bought both Vanilla Voodoo and Patchouli Dreams (and Sun-warmed Sandalwood, too) from Candle Cocoon and yes! The vanilla is a very sweet, like frosting IMO, but it's lovely and my husband loves it. I also added a touch of it to the sandalwood and omg... that mix is awesome. I am in love with that fragrance! Patchouli smells great as well, perhaps a little weak (I used less than 6% as instructed on the bottle). Haven't burned it yet so we'll see, then maybe up the percentage for the next batch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hot throw is excellent; it's a four ounce jelly jar candle and the scent fills my entire upstairs! Very impressed. It also has that perfectly earthy smell I wanted. Nothing like the original smell, out of the bottle. Also, after burning, the wax doesn't crystallize like I'm used to with soy; it becomes perfectly creamy again. I am so happy! The only negative is that the dark oil originally discolored the wax yellow, and then the top turned a pinkish brown color after curing (the rest of the candle, that could be seen through the jar, stayed yellow). Kind of weird. Bottom line: still waiting on my shipment from Fillmore so that I can compare patchoulis, but this one has actually turned out to be quite good! I know this post is quiet old, but I am new to candle making and after all these years have re-discovered patchouli. I have been looking for posts on where I might get a decent Pat. FO for my candles. did you ever try the Filmore Pat. and how did it go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nursenancy Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 I took advantage of the FO sale at WSP and ordered a pound of their patch. It's exactly like the EO and exactly like MW's was. I have not poured it yet though. I will tomorrow. I'm pleased. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rctfavr3 Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Gemlite has a good Patch! SaveonScents is also good but only if you order in Ultra Strength. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehatch1 Posted January 16, 2017 Author Share Posted January 16, 2017 Jul - The Fillmore patch came out pretty weak for me... not sure what happened, but as good as it smelled from the bottle, it wasn't so great in my candles. nursenancy - How did your WSP patch candles come out???
