giedre11 Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 Magnificent selection of FO's. I have used several of theirs in soap...mainly M&P. I used their Fuzzy Navel in a candle and that is the one candle that I've made that has absolutely no cold throw, whereas all my others do. Are their scents good in wax?

aimeec324 Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 I am doing a smell test right now between them and aztec to see the same thing. they are good oob but I can't get throw from my candles. I am a newbie so that might be it but I have throw from other scents from other suppliers. I will let u know what I find out. I am testing pomegranate, mc apple, cucumber melon, and lovespell.

AngelaVA Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 I find that their FOs are really hit and miss. Their Black Raspberry Vanilla and Lavender are great, but I've had some others that just don't throw at all. I honestly don't get anything from them anymore because I think there are better companies out there. Just my two cents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babyrn Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 I've use their fuzzy navel all the time. Awesome cold & hot throw in 100% soy and KY125. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candlebuddy Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 I haven't had any luck with this supplier. I've tried their Teaberry, Cantelope, & Honey Baked Pears . . . I couldn't get any throw in my Ky125. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EMercier Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 Well, I use their stuff, but I've been using other suppliers. I mainly use them because I can drive there. I've been testing soy and cannot smell anything really. I did use their soy and I used Vanilla Lavender from greenleaf and it smelled great. Now, I can use their paraffin (?) and get a good hot and cold scent throw. I just might stay with greenleaf with scents. I really liked the one I got. Then just get my wax from them. I think that will work for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CathyinME Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 I use alot of their fragrances cause they are close to me & causethey work good in gel. Like all companies some are stronger than others. What scents are you looking to try & I can let you know if I've tried them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giedre11 Posted March 27, 2006 Author Share Posted March 27, 2006 Thanks for all the replies! I guess it really is a sort of hit and miss thing with their scents. I have used several of theirs for M&P, and that works well. I've been soaping much longer than I've been making candles, so I have several of their scents for a few years now. I seem to have noticed that their bottles don't hold up as well as some of the other supplier's scents I use. Could also be that they package theirs in plastic? What about their Cola scent? Anyone use this in candles? I love their selection, just don't know about using it in wax. The one candle I did make with the fuzzy navel smelled so good for a month or so, but now...

jenniejr Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 I use their Cola FO and it is awesome! I have also used their Coconut FO & Strawberry FO. They were both really good. Some of the others I have tried were not so great though. :undecided Pretty much hit and miss like the others said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drfeu Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 I love their mango spice. I made some tealights with that, more than a year ago, and they still smell great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trae Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 I use a lot of their FO's in gel but I find them to be weak in paraffin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
