CyanideNoodles Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Best gingerbread fragrance? Looking for the best one you guys have used for candles hands down from natures garden, just scent or flaming candle. Its one scent I am missing. Doesn't have to just be "gingerbread" it can be gingerbread cookie or whatever just need a good gingerbread scent. Please tell me your favorite ones and review them if you can! Only want strong smelling scents. I really want something that smells strong too, I want people to be able to walk in and smell the entire room with wonderful scent. If you have had your best be from a site I not listed please list anyways. Please give me your reviews!!! I use joy wax candles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 The very, very best straight gingerbread I have found is Honey Gingerbread from Backwoods. I love BW's FOs and have had really good success with them for candles and soap. For the best cookie type Gingerbread Cookies from Peak. Good luck getting anything from Peaks. Recently I bought a sample of Gingerbread from FB and was pleasantly surprised. It smells pretty good OOB but have not put in wax yet. The absolute worst gingerbread I've tried is the one from CS. Ick! Really off and plasticky smelling to my nose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonstar Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 The Sage has a very good Gingerbread + Spice. WSP has a Gingerbread Cookie as well. I also the The Honeyed Gingerbread Candy mentioned - Very good as well https://www.thesage.com/catalog/products/Gingerbread-and-Spice-Fragrance.html http://www.wholesalesuppliesplus.com/products/gingerbread-cookie-fragrance-oil.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mcgee Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Agree with Moonstar and Candybee. You really cannot go wrong with either of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CyanideNoodles Posted August 26, 2017 Author Share Posted August 26, 2017 Is this the site you guys are referring to? Its pretty boot leg looking site wise so I tend to typically steer away from sites like this, (not to seem rude!)I didn't even know they existed until you guys mentioned it haha. Any scents worth getting from them in general besides them apparently having the best gingerbread FO. http://www.backwoodsfragrancesupply.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=336 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like their honey gingerbread as well. I also love NG's gingerbread, JS's buttery gingerbread and Aztec's spicy gingerbread. WSp also has a good gingerbread cookies. They all smell good to me!

I don't need exactly ONLY gingerbread I just want something that is ginger bread related because I feel like I need to have something gingerbread for christmas lol. Can you review each of those? Especially just scents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonstar Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Sorta hard to review all of them. They all smell good, like gingerbread. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you review each of those? Especially just scents. JS buttery gingerbread smells great to my nose. ICS has it too and they smell very similar to my nose. I just don't know how to describe it though except maybe the other gingerbreads like NG's are a bit sharper if that makes sense. I'll dig them out later today and sniff them. I also like Hansel and Gretal's house. I smell gingerbread in that oil too. I also have honey gingerbread from JS and BW so I'll sniff those too.

To me, the one from NG is probably the strongest. I like all of them though but that would be the one that I would say is the strongest. I'd have to go pour them again to know for sure though.

chuck_35550 Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Backwoods has been around for quite awhile. The Pumpkin Cornbread was a huge hit, as well as the Honey Gingerbread. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The owner is very experienced in both candlemaking and soapmaking and is also a member of this forum in good standing and has been for a number of years. If you look over the website you will see that there are full descriptions and reviews of each scent that are extremely helpful. I have used many of the FOs and have had great success with them in both soap and candlemaking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beaches Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 I like Candle Science's Gingerbread. To me it's spot on. My daughter hates it, and says it smells like dirty socks. I don't get that at all, and love it. This one will sound weird, but I sometimes mix it with Re's Lemon Curd. My mom used to make gingerbread and serve it with a lemon sauce. That combo smells just like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
