grama Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Does anyone know of a eucalyptus fo that smells true to the eucalyptus like is used in arrangements? I have a eucalyptus that smells good and a couple of customers love but I have one looking for what I call a true eucalyptus. TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeavenScentU Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 I just use essential oil eucalyptus for a true scent. You can buy it at any health food store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Have you tried Peak's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grama Posted April 18, 2007 Author Share Posted April 18, 2007 I haven't - the only 2 I have tried has been cierra's eucalyptus leaf - which several of customers really like and the the eucalyptus from wsp and it was not good. Peaks - does it have the mediciney smell or any added other scent? Would love just the straight eucalyptus like the dried stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewOrleansLady Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 I have been on this same search myself and even ones that are named Eucalyptus leaf still have the mediciny oil smell. Cierra's was the closest I could find. I found when I wrote to ask suppliers for descriptions if they didn't have one listed I would word it as dried eucalyptus scent not the eucalyptus oil scent.

grama Posted April 18, 2007 Author Share Posted April 18, 2007 I just order snowtop's from ICS, along with cranberry chutney and pink sugar - are those good? . Will post how the eucalyptus is when I get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 No added smells to it. OOB it's mediciny but I think it's a pretty good Euc., not to forget very strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandissoap Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 I have an oz from Peaks and to me it smells like the real deal. I like it better then the eo to be honest. :smiley2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kuepie Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 I have some from Peaks, and Nature's Garden. To me they both smell mediciny. Much to my surprise a lot of people like this scent, but I too was after the dried eucalyptus smell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grama Posted April 20, 2007 Author Share Posted April 20, 2007 Well - I said I was in search of the real eucalyptus and so I ordered some from ICS - I' m still waiting not good. THe pink sugar, cranberry chutney, and creme brulee smell real good oob, hope they will in wax. If I can escape this "funk" I am in today I will try to pour some tomorrow.

debscent Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 Candles & Supplies has a very earthy eucalyptus--not medicinal. I use it in my reed diffusers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grama Posted April 21, 2007 Author Share Posted April 21, 2007 My gosh - have you checked out the new scents at candles and supplies. Over 300. I know they have got some bad pr in past but the times I have ordered from them I have not had a problem and the fo's have been good. Going to try the eucalyptus and probably more - my addition kicked in:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's what I'm hoping for I'll order 5# at a time cause it will sell that good down here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grama Posted May 3, 2007 Author Share Posted May 3, 2007 Sorry NewOrleansLady - missed your post - I got it and it wasn't what I was looking for. It's not bad but not what I wanted. Probably pretty good for a stuffy nose:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewOrleansLady Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 Darn it...I wonder why that scent is so hard to copy????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grama Posted May 3, 2007 Author Share Posted May 3, 2007 I was on a hunt for JCB and decided to try gelluminations and they had eucalyptus so I ordered an 8oz bottle to try. Will post when it comes in. Probably another wild goose hunt:wink2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewOrleansLady Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 Thanks...I'm also gonna write to suppliers and ask why this is so hard to do. Maybe if they know there's a definate market (great you and me will keep them in business...lol) they will look into it. I await your review.

grama Posted May 8, 2007 Author Share Posted May 8, 2007 OK - got my eucalyptus from gelluminations - totally different smell that I ever smelled. OOB was not sure so put some on my wrist - that is how I test a fo I am not sure of;) and you know - it smells very good. Don't know how to compare it to the real thing but I LIKE IT:yay: Got to try it in wax now. I think it may even be good in b&b products. Will have to check web site and see if skin saft. Not stinging my arm yet. I will stop searching for eucalyptus now.The Japanese Cherry Blossom is great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
