Mirannda1 Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 The citrus scents I have tried have had a fuel smell ( hard to describe)I have tried lemon zest , tangerine twist and the lemon chiffon also had a little bit of a fuel smell too. They all came from different places so it has me wonderingIs there something I should look for or watch out for in these?thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firegirl Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 Definitely Citrus Blast by At Wix End. I also found Fruit Slices to be pretty citrusy.. HTH.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelaVA Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 What wax are you using?I get a fuel smell with certain scents too. I've been lucky with a few - no fuel with WYW Vanilla Grapefruit and JS Lemon Sugar and JS Citrus Linen:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthernGal Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 I've had great results with Citrus Splash from BCS. I use soy and have never had to wait on cure time to get a great cold & hot throw. Also, I've just recieved Pomelo Grapefruit from SoyCandle.com and it is dead on for grapefruit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelaVA Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 I've only tested BCS Citrus Splash in paraffin, but it is a great citrus scent and very strong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

classylady71118 Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 Citrus Bergamot from GL is REALLY AWESOME! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoriBeth Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 I really like citrus splash from bcs too. Some people are more sensitive to the different components in a fragrance. Like I cannot stand coconut from anywhere, I smell fuel in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eugenia Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 Satsuma from RE or Citrus Blast from AWE. Both are awesome in wax and B&B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 citrus splash from BCS and Lemon Pucker from BCN...the only straight lemon to not have a fuel smell, and my nose picks up on it fast!WYW vanilla Grapefruit is nice, but ut too sweet for me, reminds me of fruity pebbles or fruit loops,lol!

Ron Meyers Posted July 23, 2006 Share Posted July 23, 2006 Hi MiranndaPersonally like Indian Summer from Lonestar using soy. This is one of the few I take home with me. Like their Bergamot as well and often burn them in the same room.Ron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mindy5140 Posted July 23, 2006 Share Posted July 23, 2006 I use 100% soy and I absolutley love Citrus Splash from BCS and my best seller is Citrus Blast from Candles and Supplies. They both smell totally different.My friend also tried Citrus Blast in J50 and it smelled great.Mindy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
