Darbla Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 I'm trying to come up with the deepest, richest sort of damp earth scent I can manage. Moonworks 'Gaia' was nice but they're no longer in business, so I'm figuring out other options. SOS has Dirt but is it really a rich scent or is it just topsoil? Do any of you remember JS Pumpkin Patchouli? I need to go see if they still sell that, and if that would work as an Autumn dirt scent. What do you all think about patchouli as dirt, or about Pumpkin Patchouli if they still have it? I know I've got a sample or two of some kinds of autumn leaves lying around so I may get those in some wax to check out too for this.

earthfriendly Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 Hey Darbla, MMS (thesage.com) carries one called Earth but is $60 lb., Candle Cocoon's Fallen Leaf is really nice, I tried this one years ago and really liked it. I have not tried the Earth from MMS yet. Lol!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sponiebr Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 I was JUST talking dirt with someone the other day... Ah...

I see it has good reviews (assuming they don't screen their reviews and refuse any not so glowing....) and someone even mentioned a moldy note to it. This sounds great, thanks! I despise the SOS site (there's no excuse why they have to make it so complicated) and so I've never ordered from them. They used to not have all that great reviews anywayso I've avoided them. You may have saved me from them again. Edited July 16, 2017 by Darbla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may have saved me from them again. Well, FWIW SOS is fine, I've not had any problems with their FO's. They are slow though... It just takes an achingly long time for me to get my orders from them, but that could be because I always chose the absolute cheapest shipping option available. SoS makes some nice stuff, I can't get Florida Water FO anywhere else, (at least not that I've found yet) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TallTayl Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 I have dirt I think from wholesale supplies plus and Bramble Berry. They both smell like a bag of fresh potting soil to me. They are super Duper strong so I don't use much In blends. Just enough to give a hint of soil. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 Might see what you think of rare earth at candle cocoon. I know it choked me on a deep whiff out of the bottle. It's not potting soil. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
