so-soy Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 Hello all, unfortunately my favorite and best selling pine scent has been discontinued from Elements. Anyone know of a dupe or good replacement for Rocky Mountain Christmas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TallTayl Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 I wonder if they would consider the special order 25 lb size like their mother ship, WSP does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
so-soy Posted April 11, 2023 Author Share Posted April 11, 2023 (edited) Yes they will special order the 25 lb drum for $701. With shipping that will get quite expensive. Edited April 11, 2023 by so-soy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallTayl Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 That is a high per lb price for a keg! They’re charging the old per lb price bottled. another person I know of is interested in this FO. Perhaps a co-op would solve some of the cost issues? Though, bottles and second freight will be an additional $2 per lb, approximately.

so-soy Posted April 13, 2023 Author Share Posted April 13, 2023 Yes I thought so too. Wish we could find out who the manufacturer is. But maybe a co-op could be the answer…I’m shocked they aren’t offering a price break for the bulk orders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They cancelled that one (my favorite) and Patchouli Honey, Ginger Lime, and others I have always used. They told me their sister company (and I don't remember the name, sorry) might carry something similar. I did look, but holy cow, a one ounce sample was 8.00!! Buying the larger sizes was equally as ridiculous in price. What a shame. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buying the larger sizes was equally as ridiculous in price. What a shame. This upsets me so much. If there is enough interest we can have it duped ourselves. The common risks of if being not quite exact will always be there. I’ve had 8 or so of my must haves made and all were super. The lab also has a 25 lb min, but prices per lb are usually a little better than the one offered by elements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallTayl Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 Adding, I’m happy to co-op this exact one if we can combine 25 lbs of interest. As-is from elements the price starts at $28 plus: freight bottle payment fees shipping to you. for $28 per lb, their old retail, we should try to negotiate them bottling it. heck, if they did the co-op part with our 25 lb of interest it would benefit everyone. If as few as 5 of us preorder 5 lbs each it should make it simple for them to treat as a normal order with no risk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be great if they would order it in if we had 25 lbs sold. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked at the notes and it's missing a few things so I dont even think it's the same oil 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallTayl Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 I think I just found a good Rocky Mountain Christmas twin! It’s direct from our own lab, so if it works well, we won’t be held hostage by a retailer for it any more. I put it in wax just a few minutes ago and will report back in a few days when i light it. Out of bottle they smell identical to me. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm down to my last pound from Elements and I wanted to see if anyone has tried it yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The original was good in my coco wax blends. The Pinion Wood I have a sample of is similar OOB, but not quite the same. I think I prefer the Pinion wood scent overall as a holiday type. There's something in Rocky I can't quite put my finger on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonshine Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 Okay - this Rocky Mountain thing has me super upset This is one of the scents I simply adore and never want to be without - most others I could take or leave pinion wood isn’t quite the same - you need to find me a Smokey pine 😂😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the meantime, I promised you all the Rocky I have left, so that gives us a little time to find our own Rocky. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doglvr Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 I've tried a dozen different scent samples at least. One is sooooo close, but a little too much pine. Sweater Weather from Lone Star. My sample tart was melting when my daughter came over and she asked if Rocky Mountain Christmas was going. I'm not getting a great throw (not too bad) in my wax, but it could just be my wax as that happens with many that people on here say are great for them. If someone tries this and can figure out what's missing or you perfect it, let us know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
