maryta Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Any advice for a Pina Colada that is like Tennessee's? Cajun and Candlewic don't work for me. And I have to keep asking if anyone found a substitute for their True Lavender. I have tried so so many lavenders and none are the same...and so many are not good. TIA!

Moonstar Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 I sure wish someone would buy this business so the FO's can continue to be made/sold Maryta Ive never used those from Tennessee before ? Would you describe their lavender as powdery or with that camphorus scent ? who's have you tried that you didn't care for ? Sorry I couldnt be of more help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hated The Candle Source True Lavender...I like some from Candle Making SUpplies but they did not last long enough...so many others were fine but not as good as Tennessee. I guess because it is not powdery or too sharp! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfroberts Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 I read speculation in one of the FB groups that some of Maple Street's fragrances were the same as Tennessee's. I haven't tried anything from Maple St. yet except their clams and dye, so I don't know if that is true or not. I do know they have a Pina Colada and a Lavender. I was fortunate to find a pound of Tennessee's True Lavender at the back of my FO cabinet, so that'll keep me going a little while longer, but I'm definitely gonna give MS a try. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maryta Posted October 13, 2016 Author Share Posted October 13, 2016 I luckily still have over a pound of lavender, however, I would LOVE to hear what you think of MS...I have never gotten anything from them, either! Fingers crossed! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonstar Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Interesting on Maple Street FO. Ive never used a lavender that I can truly say I love. I do use the one from CS but am always on the search for something better. Awhile back ago I ordered a lavender FO from BitterCreek, did not care for it at all, had a powdery note to it.

Ray Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 I have heard the same about Maple Street's scents being similar to TCS. I have only tried a couple samples, which seemed very good. Actually MS business model seems very similar to what TCS had...not necessarily a bad thing. He sure does have quite a following on facebook thats for sure.
