LilFirecracker Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 I am so excited!! For once since my first FO order tanked, I feel confident that I will find at least 4 or 5 useable oils out of this order. Hopefully more! I'm being very picky with how long my melts last, and for good reason. Here's what I have coming: • Vanilla Noel • Sugar Cookie • Satin Sheets • Sea Witch • Sandalwood • Pop's Pipe • Nag Champa • Lavender Sage • Earthen Oak • Dragon's Blood • Classic Lavender • Black Vetiver Cafe • Black Raspberry Vanilla • Vanilla Cream • Sensual Vanilla • Frosted Pink Cupcake • Chocolate Chip Brownie • Tom Ford Oud Wood • Guinevere's Attraction I really wanted Patchouli Passion and Witches Brew, but both have been OOS for about 2-3 weeks now.... If anyone can give me their opinions on any of these oils, I'd appreciate it!! 😃 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barbaranj Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Vanilla Cream did very well in my 4 oz candle. Great cold and hot throw . I have yet to use it in melts, i LOVED Witches Brew! It was powerful in my wax melts and I highly recommend you buy it when it is in stock. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have it on my wish list - along with lots of others. But I'll be checking back regularly for it and Patchouli Passion! Celtic Myst was another interesting one I put to the side for my next order. I had to trim my order back a little this round. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've given me even more hope that I'll end up with maybe a few keepers! I can't wait! It shipped out today and shows I should get it Monday. Since this package is coming from CA, I don't have to worry about it actually taking a detour to CA like my last package did... 🙄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asr Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 I only tried in CP soap but their Peony & Blush Suede is beautiful too. It is a nice, soft floral. I tried Tom Ford Oud Wood too and it was nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the ones I mentioned did excellent in 415 soy and I’ve tried some of them in coconut with success Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the ones I mentioned did excellent in 415 soy and I’ve tried some of them in coconut with success Well, I didn't wanna push my luck...but yeah I'm hoping for at least 10, if not more. Once I had a taste of some really good quality oil, my standards rose dramatically. I use a blend of 4786 and 4633. I'm also testing with feather palm so I can offer an alternative to paraffin for those who don't care for it. I'm way too impatient for soy, and I just love the look of palm and it's so easy to work with. A part of me wants to go with just palm, but I'd miss the creaminess of my paraffin. Can't decide so I'll more than likely do both and see how the palm sells. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LilFirecracker Posted January 21, 2022 Author Share Posted January 21, 2022 EEEeeeekkk!!!! My samples from PFO came in today instead of Monday!!!! I'm so in love with most of them!!! 😍😍😍 If they last as long as they smell good, then I finally have something to look forward to - making some headway! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cynna Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Patchouli Passion - It's a nice enough scent, more of a perfume type, but it's a little milder than most of the patchouli types I've tried. Not so in-your-face, kind of level with Vanilla Patchouli. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I even checked last night since I'll be placing a full size order in the next week. And of course they're out of my Lavender Sage - one of my must-haves!

Gsmakinsoap Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 I believe I read somewhere that FB's Patchouli Passion smells like PFO's. Maybe someone can weigh in on this? They also have a few other dupes of Moonworks that might match those PFO has. Sea Witch and Lavender Sage, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might have to go that route because I called PFO and they're having trouble with pricing from the manufacturer of the MW scents, so there's no telling when they'll get any in stock.

Yes fragrance buddy has MW dupes….before PFO announced they were buying MW I sent Samples to FB for duping …..they are very very close but the originals are better from PFO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She told me that they're having problems working out a price with the manufacturer. She said the prices are too high now. Hell for the scents I want, I'd be willing to pay $10 more per pound for them. I just ordered 2lbs of Sea Witch before they run out - and a few others. But I miss my Lavender Sage! I hope FB oils will last as long for me as PFO's do! Thanks so much for the suggestion! Edited March 30, 2022 by LilFirecracker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the sea witch ….that’s a great oil I wonder if PFO realizes people are willing to pay more of need to be to keep their oils accessible- such a weird world we are in now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it comes down to it, especially with everything else going up, they know that those who are serious buyers would be willing to pay more to a certain extent. But the good news is they finally reached a negotiation, and we should start seeing them back in stock sometime next month!!! 🎉 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barbaranj Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 Just FYI...Witches Brew is back in stock at PFO. Love this scent! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LilFirecracker Posted September 1, 2022 Author Share Posted September 1, 2022 Yesss!!!! Camilla called Tuesday and left me a message telling me they finally got the few in I've been waiting on. I just got off the phone with her because when I saw your comment it reminded me that I needed to ask her something. She also told me they're getting ready to put up a few fall fragrances too. They might be up by the weekend or the beginning of the week. I've been on the edge of my seat the past few months waiting to see if they were going to be able to settle the pricing conflict with their manufacturer. I haven't even tested Witches Brew yet, but there's 3 others from the Moonworks Collection that ended up being love at first test! I didn't want to be without. All this testing for the past year and a half has made me VERY picky about what I'm going to carry in my line. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
