Alajane Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 was Ocean. I don't really like that type of scent, but I know some customers do, so I got a sample. I used 1 oz FO per pound of wax and after a 2-day cure a baby food jar ran me out of my 12x30-foot living room. I actually had to blow it out because it was too strong--think that's the first time that's happened to me. And the fragrance was food, even though it's not "my type."DH and I also loved Tall Grass and Pink Sugar. The Black Raspberry Vanilla wasn't strong enough in my wax blend, but it sure smelled yummy while pouring--so it's worth getting a sample to see if it works in your wax.HTH,Jane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trish Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 You might want to check the archives at the old CT and search through the veggie section with the oils that you're looking for. I may be wrong, but it seems there was a sticky thread directly regarding Peak's oils and soy wax.Found this, hope it helps... edit to add link:http://www.candletech.com/cgi-local/yabb/YaBB.cgi?board=veggiewax;action=display;num=1098222823 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alajane Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 ...that's why I don't like that type--I'm a foody scent lover!! But it smells very fresh and clean. I've never smelled a rain or ocean type scent that I liked, but this one was pretty good.HTH,Jane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tess Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Well Im waiting, what throws well for you'll in Soy?Well if you would have read the link provided. .... You know, I find this remark a bit rude especially on account that you are getting well provided information. Would you like someone to pour for you as well.Edited to add in case you are incapable of clicking on a link....You ask for it you recieved it. I will be just updating in this post only when I test out a new FO. Your result may differ from mine and that okay guys we all get differant results and each of us have our own recipe. Here is mine I use KY pure soy /BW Asian Sandalwood Yes Mulberry Yes Watermelon Yes Fruit Slices Yes JamaicaMeCrazy Yes Midsummer Nights yes Lavendar yes Fresh Linen Yes Country Garden so-so Black Canyon so-so Fireside Yes Hyacinth Yes Vanilla Mint Yes Sage/lemongrass Yes Freesia Yes SweetPeas Yes Pinapple Yes Peppermint Kiss Yes Orange Yes but got a slight fuel smell if it was power burned. Emerald Pear so-so for me at least Mountian Lake so-so but got better after long cure time « Last Edit: Dec 21st, 2004, 6:21pm by Barefoot65 » Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bev Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 I tested a sample of Peak's Mediterranian Fig in my EZSoy. It has a good strong cold and hot throw. My sister tested the candle I made. She and her sons LOVED it. My girlfriend tested the tarts I made and said they were so strong she was going to have to cut them in half. Both my sister and my friend have asked me to add this fragrance to my regular line, so when I'm ready to place another order, this one is definitely going to be included!
