Karen M Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 So I am looking for a sunflower fragrance oil, for a candle project. I have never bought this FO, does anyone have any reviews on any that are great? TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karen M Posted June 23, 2019 Author Share Posted June 23, 2019 So since no one has any sunflower reviews, I am thinking about these 2, can't decide, also have not ordered from either company before. What do you think? Northwoods: sunflower $24 LB says Yankee type, never smelled Yankee charming fragrance of radiant sunshine and wistful floral accords that captures the scent of a sunflower on a warm summer afternoon. The fresh scent of sunflower combined with a touch of plumeria, phlox, and nectar. Flaming Candle: sunflower $19.99 Lb Top - orange blossom, melon, mandarin, peach, bergamot, Brazilian rosewood, lemon Middle - cyclamen, osmathus, orris root, jasmine, rose Bottom - sandalwood, amber, musk, oakmoss, cedar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfroberts Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 I have a sample of Flamings Sunflower. OOB it smells nice. I think it is supposed to be a dupe of Sunfowers fragrance by Elizabeth Arden. I remember wearing that perfume a million years ago and this is very much like it. It's more of a perfumey floral, not a green floral, with a little sweetness. Reviews call it an "earthy & floral" but I'm not getting any earthy notes OOB. It's more B&B to me, but I have a feeling it would throw well in wax. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karen M Posted June 24, 2019 Author Share Posted June 24, 2019 @bfroberts thx for the info, I would think the perfume type would not work for this project, so I will try the NW fo. @Barbara AL I would think Yankees sunflower is a good scent, thanks.

Belinda Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 I just got a sample of sunflower from AAA and it smells very nice and I don't usually like florals. I don't know what those others smell like though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daisymay66 Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 I have a bunch of really cute sunflower molds I bought a long time ago but never used. Please share if you like it. Thinking I’ll pull them out now! TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karen M Posted July 7, 2019 Author Share Posted July 7, 2019 @Daisymay66 I ended up using Sunflower and Seamist from CC. It is a very strong fragrance, I used the recommended 3.9 % in 6006 wax, and wow, it is strong. I am burning it now, and for a small jar it has great HT. I used 4 oz facet jars, because I have a zillion of them LOL. I am not a floral person but I liked this. Description from CC website: Sunflower and Sea Mist™ - A bright and lively scent. A wake-up call to your nose like the slap of ocean waves against bare legs. A truly unique floral! And the best part is that this scent is SUPER strong! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This sounds like a scent I’ll have to give a try. Do you have any others ya really like? I ordered years ago from CC but don’t think I ever tried them. If I had all the dang money I wasted by not trying all the 1oz samples 🤦♀️ I know I could probably find at least 1000 different ones I have in my shop.
