stacien Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 One of my favorite scents is Strawberry. I have used both NG and Peaks and they smell like a cross between a daquiri and strawberry candy flavor. I am looking for a fresh strawberry smell. Pure Integrity candles has a great strawberry scent I wonder where she gets hers from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Dallas_Texas_Dean Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 Quite honestly i have NEVER smelled a Strawberry that even remotely smelled anything like Fresh Strawberries. They ALWAYS have that fake-sweetiesh-candy-ish smell. Same with banana. JMHO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soapmom25 Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 Have you tried Fresh Picked Strawberries from ICS? I also love strawberry and go back and forth between this one and Strawberry Jam from BCN. Love them both and they smell quite different.

Jordan Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 Strawberry Jam from JS is very nice, super thick oil, so be sure to mix it. This one was my testers favorite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MissyK Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 I have bought from Pure Integrity before and I think that they manufacture their own oils or she has someone make them for her if you know what I mean. They are really good and strong! I haven't come across a great strawberry yet! I tried Strawberry Jam from BCN and I didn't really like it. I haven't tried Fresh Picked Strawberries from ICS yet. It seems like it is hard to find a good genuine strawberry. Candlefind did a review on strawberry scented candles and I can't remember who she picked for the best strawberry. I think it was Garden of Eden Candles. I know LeeAnn's Soy candles was in the running and I know she buys oils from Candlesource. I only know this because her scent list is nearly just like Candlesource's scent list. Wish I could help you more. I haven't found a great one yet either. In the meantime, I'm just sticking with my Bird of Paradise from Daystar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 Got a free sample of strawberry jam from a BCN order recently and loved it! Put it on my list of FOs to get. Loved the smell-- didn't think that I would but was pleasantly surprised.But it does smell like the jam to me and not fresh strawberries. So I don't know if its what you are looking for exactly. But its yummy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubure Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 I've tried so many strawberries...some that really smell great are from Oregon Trail, Soycandle.com, also Florida Soap Supplies but none of them had a good scent throw in my CB135 (but that's nothing new:rolleyes2 - I mainly use JBN, KY and Soycandle). JBN has a Strawberry Shortcake that smell really great (and I can't detect any pie crust etc.) - and the best: it throws fantastic!But of course I will try the one from Serendipity as well:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stacien Posted October 8, 2006 Author Share Posted October 8, 2006 Let me know how the testing goes. Maybe I will order a sample from ICS to test out. I just want one as close to Yankee's as possible that is enough for me. The Pure integrity is pretty nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
