HeavenScentU Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 I tried Happy dupe from Nature's Garden and it is very very light smelling. Once you open the bottle and can barely smell a citrusy scent and when I poured candles I used it in soy and paraffin, nothing. But the weird thing is that after 3+ months you can slightly smell it in the paraffin, but not in soy. I have 1 10 oz. candle left and after 6 months it hasn't improved. I am still searching for a stronger Happy scent, because I have customers that want this scent. Speaking of scents why do companies sell scents that barely smell. What is the point? Not sure if anyone can answer this, but come on.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nayarx8 Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 Millcreek can usually be used for either candles or B&B; just check under FO description to be sure. I personally really like Brighter Scents 'Happy' dupe the best. Great throw in pure soy and its B&B safe! They are actually having a sale on their FO's right now; 4 oz for 5.50!
