celicagtca Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 Has anybody dealt with Scents for Soy and or Northstar Soy fragrance oils? If so...what is your preference between the two and I also noticed that Northstar carries ULTRA F/O's. Has anybody tried these? Thanks for the info!

maryann Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 I use a few of Scents for Soy. Awesome scents (the ones I've tried). I'm actually placing an order w/ her right now. GREAT customer service (which benefits the seller in the end) - she shows she's out of 3 scents, one not even listed anymore so I emailed her late last night and when I woke up she had already answered me w/ a solution.All her scents I've tried are strong in soywax (GREAT customer reviews w/ the testers I've used).

celicagtca Posted August 2, 2005 Author Share Posted August 2, 2005 Thanks Maryann,Never dealt with these companies and wanted an experienced soy users feedback. Thanks Again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marilyn Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 I have ordered from Northstar. They also have excellent service and very good fragrances which I believe are all tested in soy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soygirl Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 I order fragrances from Northstar a lot. Everything I have ordered (about 20 different FOs) works really well in soy. They have great customer service, and fast shipping to Wisconsin. Also, their 16 oz. fragrances come with nice spout tops that pour well. I don't get the ultra FOs, so I can't comment on them. I haven't tried Scents for Soy yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeana Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 I've used Northstar quite a bit. I like most of their fragrances. One of my favorites is Fresh cut tulips. It is in their ultrafragrance line. It really isn't "ultra" but it is such a pretty smell. I think their fragrances are even soy based. They are the only ones I have known to make this claim.

Meridith Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 I've used Scents for Soy and liked some of the FOs I got from there. The ones that did good in soy for me were:Cinnamon BunsCoconut Peaches and Milk (does better with a longer cure)Afterglow (I think this one stinks but it does throw)Vanilla RomanceJasmine Vanilla I couldn't get these to throwClean Cotton (I haven't found any clean laundry type scent that will throw in my soy)Northern StarSweet Pea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marilyn Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 I think Candlesoylutions have FO's also that are soy based. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is some really powerful smelling stuff. It's one of those that you can smell through the bottle before you open it. I don't use nearly as much with this one as I do with other scents. Plus it's one of those that many people like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bravo5 Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 Northstar has great customer service and fast shipping. My absolute favorite FO is from them - Green Forest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My youngest dd really likes fresh laundry scents but we can't find one so she doesn't have her own scent yet. My other two kids already have chosen their scents and I carry them in candles and B&B. I'll have to give another look at Northstar. Thanks!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LynnS Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 The one fresh laundry scent I like is Country Clothesline.Tried Cotton Blossom and almost no scent.Still want to try Fresh Linen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candlebuddy Posted August 10, 2005 Share Posted August 10, 2005 Check out www.scentreview.szenasi.ca. You'll find a lot of information regarding many suppliers and fo's. I think the companies you mentioned are listed.Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think SFS Clean Cotton has a great throw, and so does Northern Star. I haven't tried Sweet Pea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSAS Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 I use most of Scents for Soy FO's and they all do awesome in soy for me.Even the Clean Cotton, Northern Star and Sweet Pea. Actually the Clean Cotton and Northern Star are 2 of my top ten sellers.I just added 3 of her scents to my lineLantana FlowerWhite Tea & CactusPlum & VanillaAll 3 of these are awesome, my new favorite is Plum & Vanilla!!!She sent me a sample of Salty Sea Air and I didn't think that I would like it, but OOB it is awesome. I need to get it into wax still.I would say you cannot go wrong with her oils throwing in soy for you. She's done her homework.HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You still need to test for yourself because your experience can be so different. I love SFS oils and do carry a few of them. I just wish she would get her Coconut, Peaches and Milk back in.
