Moonstar Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 Has anyone tried the Black Vanilla from Pure Fragrance Oils before ? They have some interesting sounding oils. Trappeur I saw they have a VBN but noticed theirs doesn't have any caramel like many of them do. Worth giving it a shot. If you've used them (PFO) before - have you used them in candles or just soap etc ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mzpickles Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 I have a sample of this but I haven't put it in wax yet. Oob it's definitely a patchouli/vanilla mix, smells nice but no idea how it will perform in wax. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geesh, I have ordered so many oils from so many places this past month, I don't remember who from and what. I've just been so busy trying to keep up with my one account. But I'm going to be in better shape this week. I just went to their site and wow, they are the new distributors for Southern Garden, Moonworks and Snowdrift Farm. I know these companies had fabulous oils. Going to check them out now. So nope never ordered from them, (YET), LOL... Trappeur 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 PFO has some really great FOs. The problem for me is they are on the west coast and I'm on the east. But they definitely have the very best OMH and Lavender. I have not been able to find the same quality for those two oils. I just can't find any as good.

Im currently using CS, I like it ok but I'm still searching for a better one. Would you say its different from CS - how so ? Now you have me intrigued - darn you lol !

Candybee Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 CS lavender doesn't compare to PFO's. Its so much better. Since I stopped using it as my primary lavender my lavender soap sales have dropped a lot. I couldn't find a replacement so I started using lavender EO with CS lavender. Its good but no where as good as PFO's lavender. I have thought a lot about it lately and may just bite the bullet and go back to using their lavender. I hate the shipping costs but their lavender and OMH are really that good! Hard to describe the difference. The PFO lavender smells more like the essential oil with a less camphorous note. Its more floral, sweet, and herbal. Its really excellent quality. Best lavender I have found. Anywhere! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, theres no way you can say for sure, but I value your opinion The holiday are officially here, can you believe it ? Today was our last nice weather day, almost like Spring. Tonight the temps drop significantly and cold + rain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

number2of7 Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 I'm a little late to this party, but I've been carrying their Black Vanilla for years. It is one of the best earthy scents for b&b stuff, but I never could get it to throw in wax. I begged and pleaded with the FO, but he's as stubborn as I am. Pfft! lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pfft! lol Out of curiosity - which wax do you use ? Im wondering if many of their oils perform better in B+B rather than wax. I was thinking the Lavender Candy loves but she also uses it for her soap + she also just love the Oatmeal Milk + Honey . They also have a olive branch I think thats what its called, it says in the description that theres Lemon verbena in there. But, of course it was out of stock. I'll be testing in 464 soy wax.

number2of7 Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 I blend three different waxes to create my own parasoy blend. I don't think the wax would matter in a case like this. Black Vanilla is simply a mild FO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would of thought something with patchouli in it would of been stronger. Its probable better suited for B +B products. They do seem to have some great sounding oils though, Im just wondering if they won't perform well in wax though ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like a lot of their oils so I figured it would be good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
