Candybee Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 AH is the one I use. So far its the only one I have found that works in my CP and stays strong and true. Don't use it in candles so can't speak for that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incendia Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Flaming Candle is the only lemon verbena I have ever tried - and it is really nice. Like really nice. In addition to using it stand alone, I've mixed it with a 'floral' to make a just lovely 'lemon blossom' scent. Lemon is one of my all-time favorite fragrances. They grow lemons in my area. I'm so pleased there are scents that can reproduce the real thing so well. Locally lemon Eucalyptus and lemon Verbena also grows. It's amazing they are so similar, yet totally unrelated. Sorry to bump such an old thread, but I'm hanging out in 'search' on a rainy day, looking for other lemon scents to try. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trappeur I did order a sample but never got around to trying it out. Didn't you say that you've tried the one from RE too ? I think you mentioned that they smelled the same ?

Are you kidding me, I love when old threads are bumped. Otherwise I forget about them and don't remember to look again . Have you tried others or just Flamings ?

soshiegirl Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Have you tried the Lemon Verbena from Candle Science? That's a good one too. I also love Lemongrass Verbena and Verbena L'Occitance type from WSP. So wonderful. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grama Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 I agree with Trappeur on Lemon Verbena from Flaming. I tried SC but it just wasn't strong in my paraffin. Don't think I have tried any other. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been wanting to try the WSP LOccitance type as well as the lemon and verbena type - both have many good reviews. Out of curiosity have you tried the OMH from WSP . It has over 500 reviews. I really like their oils. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the OMH, I've not tried it but with a 5 star rating and 554 reviews it must be good. Not to throw another fragrance out there for you but their orange sugar and shea is really pretty too.

OMG I was just looking at the orange sugar + shea lol ! DO you use these in wax or B+B . If wax, which do you use ? Such an addicting hobby isn't it ? lol !

Thank you again, very thoughtful of you to chime in I use only in wax (parasoy) but I think it would be spectacular in B&B products. It would lend itself beautifully in scrubs, lotions, bath bombs, perfumes, etc. To be honest, I think it might lose a little something in wax that it wouldn't in B&B, if that makes sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coffeebean Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 I only tried Lemon Verbena from RE and CS and the CS was the stonger throw in C3 wax for me. I'm really wanting to try the Lemon Curd on my next order though. Love lemon scents! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have to get the one from RE, Ive also heard many good reviews on WSP Verbena L'occtaine type and also Lemon + Verbena Type . I like a lot of WSP oils so I think I'll get some he- he BTW Lemon seed and Parsley (WSP) - I know it sounds weird but its pretty darn good - to me anyhow.
