countrycandles Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 I haven't tried theirs. I use Drakkar from Lonestar and it is excellent . Be sure and post if you try the one from NG.:tiptoe: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idacandlelady Posted May 29, 2007 Author Share Posted May 29, 2007 I ordered it but I was just wondering if anyone had any experience with it. I tried Sola's and though it smells really good it's very hard to work with in cp soap. I will post my findings when I get it in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mindy5140 Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 I have used it before, I think it smells exactly like it. My bf wears it so I was sniffing the sample then sniffing his bottle to compare. But beware it was very strong in my soy and blend. I had to cut it down to .5oz for both waxes.Mindy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idacandlelady Posted May 29, 2007 Author Share Posted May 29, 2007 Thanks for the replies. I have never had anything bad from NG yet so I guess I will see. I was really wondering about how it behaves in Soap(cp). But it's nice to know about the soy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candle Man Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 You know their site has reviews? Look at the reviews, scroll down to see them. I always look at the reviews before I even order a sample. http://www.naturesgardencandles.com/candlemaking-soap-supplies/item/df-8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you did want to make candles with that scent it would be strong.Mindy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appreciate the feedback. I did read the reviews on the site but nobody had anything to say about it in soap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candle Man Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 Ooops ! Didn't know you wanted info of it in soap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 Well Ida, I can't answer about it in soap, except that I've not had luck with it in three batches, but will be making a third with one from AWE that's supposed to work, that is CP. A longtime soaper we know though said that there just isn't a Drakkar that survives CP (not starting an argument, because I'm still going to take Carrie's word and use what I have from AWE) ... however maybe try it with a different method.

Jeana Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 I just got Midsummer's night from Peaks. It is supposed to be a Drakkar dupe too. I was planning on soaping it. Does this one work? Does it discolor, or seize up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
