maryann Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 Scents for Soy (LUV every FO I've tried- strong)MillCreek (use and like most all of their FO's- but this is where I started from-now I'm spreading my wings and trying other companies' supplies)KY (just 2 or 3 FO's)and just ordered from for the first time Southern Scentations - the suggestion of a GREAT chandlier that I respect. They smell GREAT in bottle can't wait to try in soy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meshman Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 I buy all my scents exclusively from CandleChem Company through EBay. So far, every scent I've tried in a 1lb candle almost drives you from the room. I've tried them in essential oil burners and they're almost unbearable.

Just because you *can* use X amount of FO in X wax doesn't mean you *have* to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meshman Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 "So they make you flee and you can't stand them?"Oh yes. I don't make them for sale but the odd people I do give them to expect a scent that will kill the plants in the room and permeate a 12" thick concrete wall. Now that's a scented candle, and there's never any disappointment. I can't speak to the difference between the forementioned seller and Peaks but the price is right.I have photos being developed and will post them in the gallery soon.

OSuzyQ Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 I get my FO;s from Peaks. Lonestar and Candle Suppply Place. Both Lonestar and Candle Supply Place ore local for me. And JC's Candle Supply. I like Peaks the best, but when I need wax, I will go to Lonestar-they have a good selection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meshman Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 "Is the e-Bay store the same thing as candlechem.com on the web? I know that one but never ordered from them."Apparently, yes. The odd thing is, now that I've been to the web site, is their stuff is much cheaper on EBay. Website 4oz fragrance; 6.49. Same ragrance on EBay: 4.95. Wierd. I'd 100% recommend them for anything.
