SoapInTheCity Posted May 3, 2006 Posted May 3, 2006 I want to order some FO's from The Candle Source off Ebay. What are the 5 BEST SCENTS, I wouldn't be disapointed with when making CP soap? Quote
BrandNewToCandles Posted May 3, 2006 Posted May 3, 2006 I like the black raspberry and vanilla, vanilla and fresh berries, and the buttered rum, which smells like nail polish remover oob but REALLY smells great once it's poured. I also love the melonberry and pearberry oob, haven't used them yet. Quote
Candlebuddy Posted May 3, 2006 Posted May 3, 2006 You should order from their website (www.thecandlesource.com) instead of ebay - prices are cheaper. I don't make soap, but for candles I use . . . Fresh Cut Roses, Sunwashed Linen, Downy, Clothesline, J&J Bedtime Bath, Grandma's Kitchen, Spiced Apples & Peaches, Starfruit & Mango - these are very strong in my 50/50 blend. Other scents that are wonderful, but still in the testing stage are . . . Buttermint Candies, Fresh Strawberries, Strawberry Banana, Lilac, Sweet Pea, Warm Vanilla Sugar. (Not as strong as I would like them to be, but very true and realistic scents.) I may need to add a higher percent to my candles.HTH. Quote
