cybersix Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 Hi all, can anyone tell me something about this FO? I need to add some citrus based and some "plain" fragrances because here people it's not used to complex fragrances (I hope I can convert them all).Since I buy all my oils from Peak I though I could try this FO, but I know that this type of FO gives often problem.Any review?Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sudsnwicks Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 I have not tried their orange but I do use their sage & lemongrass which is a citrus scent. The latter is good.For "plain" fragrances how about their wild raspberry or vanilla passion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ah-soy Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 Pomegranite and Citrus from MillCreek is awesome and is heavy on the citrus side...smells like yummy pink grapefruit. Sorry I can't review Peaks orage as I haven't used it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jennhalcyon Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 I smell a good bit of vanilla or cream in peak's orange. I think fruit slices is more citrus-y...at least to my nose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coconut Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 I have tested Peak's Orange in IGI 4630 (Harmony Blend). OOB smells like orange, but in the wax it smells like an orange dreamsicle, not an orange. I did not like it and my tester did not either. Sage Lemongrass, on the other hand, smells awesome and everyone that smelled it loves it. It has a very strong throw in this wax also. I have not yet tested their other citrus FO's.

cybersix Posted February 12, 2007 Author Share Posted February 12, 2007 Thanks all,I have Sage and Lemongrass and love it. I have also High Voltage from Old Mill, it's very citrus-y and I can smell the oranges and lemons. A great throw!But I was wondering about this plain orange.Sorry but what is an orange dreamsicle?

coconut Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 Sorry not to reply sooner, been wrestling with wicks. An orange dreamsicle is an ice-cream bar with orange sherbet on the outside and vanilla ice cream in the middle. Also called a creamsicle in some stores. Very common in the US but you are in Europe? Peak's Orange has more of a sweet smell, and a vanilla smell. Not unpleasant, but not like a real orange. I grow oranges, so I know what a really fresh orange smells like. If you search Candletech, other chandlers have listed FO they say is very orangey but I have not had a chance to try them.

candleslh Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 I love Peak's fo's, but their orange is not my favorite. It doesn't smell like a fresh squeezed oranges. I do use it and add vanilla to get dreamsicle and it works for that. I won't be ordering this one anymore though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
