Candlebuddy Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 I just ordered on Monday, and got my order from Backwoods today. Both fast and awesome customer service. I'll be putting them into wax within the next few days ... I'm so excited to test because oob they smell fantastic. I ordered Lilac, Hazelnut Coffee, and I also got a 1oz of Cider & Sticks.Did I say I was excited? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KristineG Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 I got mine too!Tropicali TangoPatchouliBlue SugarI love them all...they smell great! I REALLY like the Blue Sugar. I've heard people commenting that it's a licorice smell...Not this one...it's to die for! Sweet yet masculine at the same time...very sexy scent IMO. Received a free sample too! I think it was Twigs and Berries...not sure, it's out in the shop. I love all that I've bought from them so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angel91805 Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 WAHHHHHHHHHHH...I want mine too!!! I know it shipped Monday....man, it sucks being in the middle of the Southwest! GRRRR.Reviews, people! We need reviews! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heirloomoriginals Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 Their Lilac is the best (in soap and wax). The Cider and Sticks is awesome, perhaps the best cider I have smelled. You won't be disappointed. I live just about 20 minutes from Connie and she is so nice to visit with. I guess I am lucky to have a supplier so close!Steph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LovelyLathers Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 I got mine today. I ordered Sunday night. Yes the customer service is awesome. The backwoods blue is great and so is the amazing grace. I got a sample of the granny's punkin and I love it, nice oob with a little spice to it. I can't wait to soap them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 Well I have a package at the PO. Wonder if it's Backwoods or books lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Dallas_Texas_Dean Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 Mine are ordered. Blue, Grace and Pink PepperEvery single fragrance I have tried from Backwoods has been good.......and by that I mean a good quality...good throw. Could be because they actually make candles and are selective about what they add to the aresonal?I appreciate that they are picky about the fragrances they choose to carry.

Freezin Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 Got mine too, really love the Pink Pepperberry, breeze in the Keys (smells like B & BW coconut lime verbena) and the New England Mist. I like more, but can't remember them off the top of my head. I really, really want to try the new cider one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CareBear Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 at what level are you all soaping these babies? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KristineG Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 I'm only doing candles. Pink Pepperberry is awsome. Breeze in the Keys too. They have a fantastic throw. You should try Tropical Fusion. I bought those during the last sale. They're awsome. I'm going to pour my new ones today. Won't be able to burn till tomorrow. I'll let you know how they are. I have a feeling they're going to be great too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heirloomoriginals Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 Carebear, I usually use these at .7 or .8 oz ppo, that is usually strong enough in soap. For bath and body, I usually go with the 1 oz pp. The lilac is great in wax, as well as the Macintosh Apple. I can't wait to start testing the newest ones in wax to add this fall.Steph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gloworm Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 When we test here at home -soap or candles -we use 1 oz pp. Personal preference I guess. I like em strong.Glo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 Holy cow what a treasure trove of scents! Can't wait to use them. Glo's service is speedy, speedy too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracey Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 I have a friend that sent me some samples of her Backwoods fragrances. I tested the Cuc Mint in my soy and I am in love with it and can't wait to get it into my gardener's soap.....I am placing an order tomorrow for quite a few of the fragrances-now I really can't wait!Tracey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

debscent Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 I love Backwoods' oils--I'm definitely adding this supplier, and only being one state away, saves on time & shipping. I love the pumpkin cornbread OOB so much I'm saving it to (for some dumb reason). LOL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angel91805 Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 Why is it we don't have a little crying sobbing icon???? I need one!WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHSTILL no FO. <sniff> I'm holding out ONE last hope for today...the mailmen in our neighboorhood still walk up to each house (park the mailtruck at the end of the street). If there's packages, they drive those around last....so I'm hopeful. I'm going to have a huge temper tantrum if my box doesn't get here by tomorrow!

Scented Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 I feel for you guys, honest I do. Mine smell so good and I won't horde my Pumpkin cornbread like some here LOL! I have plans for the whole pound and to buy more to have a lot of stock in it lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kymber Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 Well I guess mine didn't come today either. I am a little concerned as it never usually takes this long at all. Now I am panicing that maybe the wrong address is on it or something..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
