daniedb Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 I just hate anything heavy, anything patchouli, anything "sensual". BARF. Ergo, I need you guys to help me choose. I know that "Amber Romance" from B&BW is a really popular scent, and I just can't stand it...so can you guys give me your best sellers in this category and which are your personal faves?Thanks very much!

Scented Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 Patchouli You can go with a sandalwood, ambers (there are things like amber musk and Peaks has the amber vanilla)Amber Romance is another good one ... (ya gotta make stuff you don't like if you're selling lol! Heck I had to make coffee scents -- gag)What else is earthish? Let's see there's nag champa (though it's more a heavy floral); you can mix patchouli with a lot of things like orange, jasmine, rose and vanilla or even lavender.Oak Moss is woodsyish.Cedar is another woodsyish. Still thinking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tlc26 Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 any of the Fireplace scents I think of earthy or woody ( I have tried from so many suppliers and mostly they are all different) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daniedb Posted September 4, 2005 Author Share Posted September 4, 2005 (ya gotta make stuff you don't like if you're selling lol! Heck I had to make coffee scents -- gag)Unfortunately, you're right, LOL! I hate those scents, but I have to offer all varieties. Since I have no nose for these scents, I'm glad I have y'all to quiz. I can't believe you don't like the coffee scents! I don't LOVE them, but I don't hate 'em either...but then there's thems that likes their patchouli, right?Thanks so much for the great suggestions so far.

Oceangazer1 Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 I don't like Earthy scents either :undecided But, I can stand Autumn Leaves and Sandalwood Vanilla from BNL's. Also, Twigs & Berries from Heartfelts or NG are both awesome. That's all I have in Earthy scents. hth's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scented Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 but then there's thems that likes their patchouli, right?Them there are Seriously I got some awesome soap from Trejen to try out and it's a patchouli and orange mix and it's divine!! Not really all that earthy, but I love patch too If you were looking for some designer type dupes and so forth:Love Spell RaptureAmber Romance (gee am I pushing this stuff lol!)are all doing well for us, but I'm not in your neck of the wood either.Another good earthy mix (you'll have to mix your own though) is patchouli and sandalwood together (equal parts).Oh I'll second the Autumn Leaves from BnL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mappam Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 Sultry Angel from Candle Cocoon is Awesome. I just test burned this FO in 100% Soy at 6% and it filled the room with a softly 'scentual' fragrance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharon in PA Posted September 13, 2005 Share Posted September 13, 2005 I LOVE Tuscan Night from Peak!! I can get anybody into it too, once they smell it! I'd call it earthy, great scent, and throws great!Oh...what do you all re-name Nag Champa? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mysticglow Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 Earthy scents are not my fav either but I tried a sample of Patchouli last week and I really liked it. Who has the best Patchouli? The one I tried was from BCNbut I have nothing to compare it to as this is the first time I have tried it. Mixed it with Lavender and CP soaped it. Yummy!!!!! I did like Tuscan nights from Peak OOB but haven't poured it yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
