cable_stacy Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 What is the scent you just hate to pour? Yet the customers keep requesting!Mine would have to be fudge brownie and lilac. Fudge brownie smells like tootsie rolls to me and I dont like them lol. The lilac burns my eyes when I pour it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dustpuuppy Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 LAVENDER! hands down, i hate the smell and it permeates through my house for a good 24 hours! Yep, poured some Peak's lavender at an ounce per pound. You could smell it three blocks away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Dallas_Texas_Dean Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Anything Fruiti-Tooti-ish....just HATE imitation fruit fragrances...and a lot of people like it.You could take parakeet urine and call it "Mango-Papaya-Kiwi"...and someone is going to buy it, guaranteed!

topofmurrayhill Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Pouring lavender is about as enjoyable as pouring mustard gas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shell1226 Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Hey Dust, definitely cut down on Peak's Lavender. 1 oz pp is definitely too much on that one...at .5 oz pp it is way strong.I hate pouring Jasmine, makes me gag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mindy5140 Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 My friends and family are my customers, they like lavender, everytime I pour it, I have to run and find my inhailer or stick my head in the freezer so I can breath.Mindy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScentsandMore Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 I would have to say it is a toss up between rose and lilac. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrealh1975 Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 I can't stand Gardenia or Lavender...YUCK!! I love Black Raspberry Vanilla & French Vanilla. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsmejeffd Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Haven't tried any florals yet. I prefer bakery and citrus/fruity fragrances. Effervescent Fizzy Pops from JS smokes like crazy when I add it to the wax (low flash point) but I keep getting orders for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuzieCandleMaker Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 OMG it would have to be Autumn Harvest - everytime i pour it I get a migraine - but it is one of my best sellers in the fall. I wonder why it is that if you absolutely hate a FO - why is it that it seems to stay in the air forever. When I walk in my house - I can only smell Autumn Harvest. Strange. My DH hates, and I mean hates, baby powder, but hey, its a good seller so I gotta pour it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowCow Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 my dh hates peaks hot chocolate b/c it lingers so long. he also hates when i pour sugar cookie or cinnamon buns b/c he actually gets this idea in his head that i am cooking. why, i'm not sure.i hate to pour roasted chestnuts...makes me gag. i also hate rose. it's always given me a headache in any form.

I just about puked! I decided I rather buy citronella candles than make them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sudsnwicks Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Yep, poured some Peak's lavender at an ounce per pound. You could smell it three blocks away.Whoa, that is a lot. Their recommended usage is only 0.25-0.5 oz per pound. I don't like pouring this scent either. I do 0.5 oz per pound and it's still feeling like my house is covered with toilet cleaner scent.

Trish Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 I can't stand anything with sandalwood or patchouli (I'll send those customers to Scented!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celicagtca Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 LAVENDER all the way and Pachouli. I had a linen once that was so popular that everytime I poured, I had a headache for 2 days. I had to take it off my list regardless of how much it sold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karenmimi Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 I hate Lavender, Country Clothesline, and Honeysuckle. They are so strong.....but everyone loves 'em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deputy6512 Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Lavender for sure. It is soooo strong. I really like spring rain, but it gives me a headache. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hank7fd Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 i would have to say lily is my worst frag to pour. another that is next on the "worst pour" list would be Eucalyptus. reminds me of having Vapo-Rub applied Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharon in PA Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 Witches Brew, from C&S, we call it our patchouli, I used to like it, now can't stand it, and I think it has something to do w/ the fact that it gave me such a hard time wicking!But, OMG do folks around here love it! I took it off my line to get a break from it for awhile, and promised to offer it again in Spring...well, of course, THEY remembered I said that!!!I usually pour scents that I like, I even pick florals to offer that I like, so I am not grossed out pouring and testing them...

AngelaVA Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 I abssolutely hate pouring anything with sandalwood or patchouli. I also seriously dislike most florals, especially the perfumy super-strong ones. Lavender is also on my yuck list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
