ldunleav Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Hello, I am looking for suggestions on the best eucalyptus fragrance for a spa collection. I have tried one from Candle Cocoon, nice, but not what I m looking for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonstar Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 I just received Eucalyptus Lavender from American Soy. OOB Its not what I was expecting but Im waiting till I put it in wax to decide. I also ordered Orange from them OMG I love that one. No sharp notes you sometimes find in citrus. This smells sweet bit not sickly sweet, sweet like a fresh orange. Anyways, Im planning on mixing a bit of the Orange with the EL and add a few drops of Lavender EO + Euc EO for a spa scent. What is it about the CC one you don't like ?

TallTayl Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Thymes eucalyptus at sweet cakes is pretty darned nice. Eucalyptus leaf by peak was a decent one 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 For a spa scent I use a blend of eucalyptus and peppermint. Lots of suppliers carry this blend but use different names for it. The combo is perfect for a spa line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was the Eucalyptus /lavender like?I love infusing EOs with Fragrances because most EOs just dont work to well in wax on their own. One that I absolutely love is Himalayan Bamboo (CS) with Lemongrass EO....very spa like. I need to try some of the FOs from American Soy I have heard good things about them. I use their wax and love it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use their wax and love it! Its not bad. Lavender is not very pronounced OOB IMO so I think Ill infuse it with some lavender EO that I have around here somewhere. I think its going to improve when its in wax. I'll let you know in a few days how it is in wax. I ordered the American Soy pillar wax to make wax melts + only tested the Bourbon Pumpkin Cake. CT wasn't impressive with that FO but when I tested the wax melt it smells nice. I don't that one to be a strong FO though. The Lemon Cheesecake is TDF. Do you use the Millennium wax or the other container wax they carry ? How do you like it, Im thinking of ordering a 10lb sample bag. Will CD wicks works with that wax ?

I tried their container wax on its own and it was ok but the tops were not as nice the Millennium. They have an additive you can add to it so maybe that would help. I also have talked to people that really like and or prefer their container wax blended with 464. I am currently using the CD wicks but in testing phase....... I want to try Premier to see how they work . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grama Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 I was on a Eucalyptus hunt and tried many but after I got the Eucalyptus (Thymes Ltd type) I stopped looking. Best I found. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best I found. I agree. People who are asking for eucalyptus don't often want it blended with mint. I offer several eucalyptus and mint blends the people on the plain eucalyptus leaf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh man, Aztec has a lot of fragrances I like that are good in soy wax. Caramel Pecan Pie Applejack & Peel...this one is strong! Sweet Potato & Brown Sugar! Yum! Leaves....I am in love with this one and so are several others who have smelled it Vermont Honey Apple Victorian Christmas Peaches & Pumpkin Patch To name a few....I have another list of good spring/summer/clean FO's. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
