Moonstar Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 3 hours ago, Trappeur said: Definitely recommend CS Blue Spruce!!I won't order from anywhere else. A second runner up for the Spruce is Flaming....pretty dang good and great match. I know Belinda (the western fo ho queen, lol) I think she says she orders leather from Texas Candle Supply and loves it.....(I think it was that company). Now I love Lilac from Candle Cocoon.....Ever so nice, soft, with just enough punch as florals can be quite strong and nauseating....(well they do to me). Trappeur Ive used Peak's Spruce Christmas Tree and it smells nothing like the Blue Spruce from CS - To my nose anyhow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICS has a almond pastries and NG has one called Marzipan something or another - but Ive never personally used them - Sorry I can't be of more help. FB + CC both have a tea + cakes fragrance that has a almond pastry smell but Ive never smelled Peaks to compare - Sorry I can't be of more help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember where I saw a cinnamon balsam, Ill let you know . Yes, cinnamon balsam from Peaks is beautiful - one of my favorites! I wouldn't think that would be too hard to do a blend. How bout Fillmore's Christmas Tree (which is really balsam) mixed with a nice Cinnamon? I'll have to get going on that blend myself. I agree 100% with what you say Moonstar: BirthdayCake: RE's KY version Banana N.Bread: Yep from CS. I need to order a pound this week Lavender: Yep from CS (Actually I pretty much love most everyone's lavender) Lemon Pound Cake: Yep from CS Fresh Coffee: I'm still on the hunt for one Cinnamon Balsam: Iloved the one from Peaks . I wouldn't thank that would be too hard to make. Maybe Fillmores Christmas Tree (is Balsam) mixed with a nice cinnamon from someone I know this isn't a cinnamon balsam but let me tell you what is a beautiful combination. Old Glory sent me a pound of her own blend for a Christmas scent. She did 50% of Aztec's Christmas Tree and 50% of Aztecs Mulberry for her blend and oh my my my! Heavenly/beautiful! I have to get that combo going now. Matter of fact with what I have left out of the bottle'll make me a candle and some melts.

Ditto that! Nothing what so ever to me also. I know so many use peaks spruce but I never cared for it myself. In m opinion CS is a TRUE spruce.

Trappeur Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Flaming has a new scent call Black Canyon. I don't know anything about it though. For a peppermint I use Flamings "North Pole"....omg is that peppermint! Last Xmas I did candles in it and they flew out the door.

I get the one from Fragrance Buddy. Smells the same to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trappeur Sorry Trappeur, I came to the peak closing late, I had no idea what people were talking about so I asked what was happening, i have since read the board and it seems that Peak is closing which i think it such a knee jerk reaction it is crazy and akin to the mess The Scent Works pulled leaving people in the dark and up and closing.

I might still have a full 4oz of CAM from Peak if someone wants to purchase it. I'll look and repost. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is terrible! When are they closing or are they already closed? I added Red Clove, Pear Spice and Wild Rasberry. I have never smelled a clove like Red Clove or nearly as strong. To my nose, RE's Honey Bee is exactly the same as Wild Mountain Honey but their Amish Harvest is nowhere near as strong in wax as Peaks' is. ?

GoldieMN Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 @sandy511 The announcement was made on Peak's Facebook Page. Not taking any orders and, possibly, returning money for orders not fulfilled. More information in the "Peak is Closing" thread including the FB post. The owner is asking people to contact him if interested in purchasing the company.
