AngelaVA Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 I had a customer request this Fo today. I don't go into BBW, so I don't know what it smells like exactly (I mean, I can guess the vanilla-cinnamon based on the name, lol). But does anyone here carry a dupe of this? Or has anyone smelled it? Is it just a straight CV or are there other notes to it I should know about if I mix my own? Thanks!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michi Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Oooh I'd be all over that-as a matter of fact, I would be right now, except that the cinnamon vanilla FO I bought is not body safe (didn't realize this until AFTER I got it DUHHHH). I hardly ever go into BBW either, seeing as I don't have one nearby, and I really only go in there when I want to get new ideas on scents and such. LOLI'm sure someone around here has smelled it and will help you out Angela. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelaVA Posted September 12, 2006 Author Share Posted September 12, 2006 Come on, I know someone's sniffed this . I am wondering if it's more sugary sweet or spicy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candle Man Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Lonestar Candle Supply has it but not body safe. http://www.lonestarcandlesupply.com/scentsc-d.htmlI don't know of any cinnamon that is body safe so I don't know how BBW sells anything with cinnamon in it.

AngelaVA Posted September 13, 2006 Author Share Posted September 13, 2006 I checked the BBW site and it's a White Barn candle that she likes. So, I'm changing the name of the thread. Thanks for the link to Lonestar. I haven't ordered from there in so long, so I'm off to put stuff in my cart now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sawyer's moon Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 This one I know as it's that scent that got me into making candles!!!!! BCN's old closeout was the closest I've ever found but since they don't carry it, and I'm hoarding it for my own personal use ....SNC's Cinnamon Vanilla is very very close (I'm not sure it's on RE's site though). You will not be able to replicate by just taking cinnamon and vanilla...it's much more complex than that. I do have a lb of that if you'd like to take a bit to try.

sawyer's moon Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Candleman - SNC's Atomic Fireball is skin safe - I've used it in cp soap with great success. Anything cinnamon (or spicy for that matter) should contain a warning for people with sensitive skin. I do this regardless if I'm using spicy fos or eos. BCN's closeout is skin safe and I've used this in cp soap as well. If you bribe me enough , Angela, you may be able to get a bit of my stash if it's only for your friend and you don't want to add it to your regular line.Jen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sawyer's moon Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Send me a pm with your addy and I'll get something out to you. I am absolutely not kidding when I say this is my absolute favorite and is unlike most suppliers Cinnamon Vanilla. I have a very embarassing story regarding how I got into chandling and eventually B&B and I do have to say...it all begins with one White Barn Cinnamon Vanilla candle. Thousands and thousands of dollars later...here I am .Jen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mainly make candles and only have a small line of B&B. Body Mist, Hand & Body Lotion & Shower Gel right now.Are SNC's FO good quality? I would place an order if their FO's have good throw in my own soy blend wax too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sawyer's moon Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 Candleman - definitely include a warning but don't shy away from spicy scents for your B&B. People will know if they have sensitive skin or not...I'm kind of middle of the road and can handle the spicy fos and eos just fine.SNC has excellent quality fos and thankfully they are now carried by Rustic Escentuals. The bummer is that they're not carrying SNC's Cinilla which is the closest thing I've found to BNC's Closeout Cinnamon Vanilla :embarasse. Thankfully I have a fairly large stash for myself (couple of lbs at least) so I won't run out for personal use anytime soon. Jen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rae Ann Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 NEW! Cinnamon Vanilla--Popular blend of heartwarming cinnamon sugar mixed with undertones of cherries and buttery caramel frosting over sweet cake wrapped in spiced clove and warm vanilla spice. I just saw this new one at Millcreek. Might be worth getting a sample... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandissoap Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 :wave: Hi Jen,Its me, your cinnamon vanilla pal!!!! I shared my prized and precious BCN oil and she shared her awesome cinnamon vanilla candles she made! What a great deal that was...yes, my supply is dwindling too. I must say, even though its not the same, the cinnamon frosting from WSP is very good. A if you want a titch more cinnamon then vanilla try cannellini ricci from SW. Both are very good, but nothing will compare to the classic, original and super duper yummy BCN one!!! Shame on them for getting rid of it!
