JCFantasy23 Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 Just ordered some fragrance oils from JS because of their sale. If only I had taken advantage of the previous BOGO sale the week previously Havent had the chance to try some of these in soap, candles, or B&B so suggestions are welcome.Chai Tea - Already tried this before so it was just an upgrade to a larger size. If someone hasnt tried this, I suggest getting a sample ASAP, its delicious!Almond Marizpan - The combination sounded divine from the website. OOB not sure on this one just yet. Very very sweet and I dont detect much almond.Hot Buttered Rum - Another that sounded divine from description. OOB a warm pleasant scent thats like a butterscotch.Mulberry - Been trying out various ones from supplier to try and find one I liked as much as Mulberry. OOB it smells good but not as strong on the pink, gaga, sweet scent as Brambleberry. Hyacinth Chula Orchid - OOB smells DIVINE! GREAT floral combo, hard to place which florals but with my nose this is normal. Really like this one!Peanut Butter Cookie - Smells good OOB but hoping it will be more peanut buttery and slightly better in something.Becky sent me SIX samples:Fantasia de cioccolata - Thought there might be chocolate in here but dont really smell it much. Wasnt as impressed as others by this one OOB. Its kind of berryish and I'm burned out on those but there's something else there.Bear Claws - Never saw this on the website, its hard to place, berryish kind of, but there's moer there and it's warmish. Like it better than the fantasiaya hoo! Berrie lemonade - This smells like a GREAT lemonade, strong!!delightful berry creme - OOB its okay, not the best berry scent Ive smelledGreen tea - Smells very good and clean! Enjoy the chai tea more but both of them may not end up being a bad thing SUmmer Splash - Smells very good, not overly sweet or floral or berryish, but a sort of mixture between all three.

JCFantasy23 Posted May 20, 2006 Author Share Posted May 20, 2006 Thanks Purple! Just put some of the Nana's Apple Butter (had from before) in a candle tonight. Smelled up the entire house, roomates said too strong after awhile lol. Havent tried burning yet, still molding, think I messed up the color - oh well. Have some more on order besides the 1 oz now Can't wait to try the rest! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charity4candles Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 The Yahoo Berry Lemonade makes a wonderful candle!! Great throw!! Going to make it one of my summer fav's!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCFantasy23 Posted May 24, 2006 Author Share Posted May 24, 2006 Im a bit bummed about the Apple butter now. After the wax hardened and set it up I can mainly just smell cinnamon spice. Friend came over and sniffed and said she just smells cinnamon. It seems the longer it cures the less apple and butter, nearly indetectible now. About the same for burning. Everyone else says a great throw? Used IGI 1343, an ounce for a little over a pound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone else says a great throw? Used IGI 1343, an ounce for a little over a pound.I have to say that I completely disagree. We have several customers that absolutely love this scent, and we sell it by the casefull. I am sniffing a candle made about 3 months ago, and it smells just like applebutter, apple and spice. I think it may be your wax or something.....This is extremely strong for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCFantasy23 Posted May 24, 2006 Author Share Posted May 24, 2006 Well, I have no idea, although it could very well be the wax I use. Ive seen good reviews of it and desperately want the scent. When pouring it into the wax and the initial "binding", it scented the house strongly with an amazing fragrance. But then it hardened and just smells like cinnamon, and is keeping it up No other pillar/votive waxes on hand to test further. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
