Gaye Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 I use J223 and soy and these are the best I have found from Alabaster. Have used them for years. Their liquid dyes are great too...especially the white and the teal and the red. Birthday Cake - Great - Best Seller Sage & Citrus - StrongBlueberry Pie - strong oil and my favorite. You may want to cut back on this one for blending purposes....but the soy should soak it up. Just stir,stir,stir. this is also a best seller Kudzu - Strong - kinda grape smellCranberry Spice - excellent - Best Seller and the best aroundLemon Drops - Strong...Pie Crust - wonderfulDickens Christmas - Best Seller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimberly Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 I dont use your wax...but the FO's I have tried from Alabastar were way inferior to what I am used to using. VERY WEAK! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenniejr Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 The only FO I use from Alabaster is "Love Spell". I had gotten some off the classifieds and to me it smelled just as good as Peak's version ........ just the shipping is much cheaper to me. I don't use the wax you are talking about, but I have noticed that the Peak's Love Spell has a stronger cold throw than Alabaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holly Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 I use three FO's from them so far:Mulled Cider -- Excellent (same as Gold Canyon's mulled cider). Strong in paraffin and soyCranberry Spice -- very good. I got a better throw with this one than with BCN's and some others. Great throw in soy. I have not tested it yet in paraffin.Spcied Apple Pecan -- love this scent. Medium strong throw -- not a blow you out of the house but nice. I have only used it in paraffin. I tested it once in soy but need to test it again. I have a lot more samples to test. ~Holly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trish Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 I've only tested a few and nothing really rocked my boat. The kudzu is strong, but I can't sell it. Smells just like "grape" to everyone and I guess they're not looking for a grape scented candle. LOLI use 4630 (no soy) and can recommend some great oils from other vendors! LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Common Scents Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 I use J300 and I have used a few of their FO's. The only two I sell are their dreamsicle & Fresh Linen but I am looking to get those from other places too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 Well here ya go. I have quite a few that I'd sell ya if you wanted to try them lol! I thought their peach, magnolia, raspberry smelled like a wine cooler. Their red hot cinnamon wasn't that bad nor is their Drakkar, but I've gone away from using them for a variety of reasons.

cindym Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 Not a fan of Alabaster at all. Go with Nature's Garden , Peaks , or Just Scents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
von691 Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 I use quite a few and these are best sellers for me. Birthday Cake, Tangerine Dreams, Red Hot Cinnamon I don't care for granmas kitchen it smells like burnt cinnamon, and Spiced Sugar plum is not what I would call spiced.

bravo5 Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 I don't use that wax, but I do use soy.I bought a couple at a candle conference, and they're pretty good. Their Amish Harvest turned out to be one of my best sellers for fall/Christmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
