Most are bitter smelling to me & this wasn't)These are the only ones I have tried, but I am sure others will recommend more! I do want to try their Maple, maybe I will take advantage of that sale!

nmhoneybear Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 You must get the Pink Pepperberry! It is such a fabulous unique scent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heirloomoriginals Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 Honey Gingerbread, Yummy Punkin', Pumpkin Cornbread, Patchouli, Macintosh Apple, Baked Apple, Black Irish (haven't tried this one yet, but I did smell it), Cinnamon Bun, Jakfruit Jam, Blackberry Patch, etc.There aren't many of their oils I don't like! I live about 20 minutes from Connie and she is great! You can't go wrong with any of their oils.Steph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Candlebuddy Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 Ok you guys ... are these reviews oob, or have you tested in in wax? If so, could you say if you're using soy, paraffin, or a blend. Oh yeah, I forgot to add ...Hazelnut Coffee, 8%, 50/50 soy blend, CD wick, cured for 4 days ... awesome cold & hot throw.

Lifelace Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 Hi there! I just got my very first order from Backwoods and gotta say the ones I got were all hits! Very strong and wonderful. I had several fall scents and would recomend them all:Indian Summer & Amber Moon are somewhat similar to my nose. You have to like patchouli, I personally am a big fan when it's blended right and not too strong! It's not listed in both descriptions but I can smell it. Indian Summer is more woody & fruity, Amber moon more powdery, both are fabulous and different than the typical <<fruit & spice blends>> we find this time of year.My fav of the bunch was Cider & Sticks, followed by Baked Apple and then Pumpkin Cornbread. I HAVE to try the Honey Gingerbread, sounds yummy!Melany Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candlebuddy Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 Melany ... Are you describing out of the bottle scents ... or have you tested them? If so, what type of wax are you using? What percentage did you use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmhoneybear Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 Do you know if this smells like the Pink Peppercorn from Just Scent? That one is awesome, wondering if they are the same?I've not smelled JS's Pink Peppercorn, so I can't compare. All I can say is that the Pink Pepperberry threw like crazy in the J223 wax with zinc core wicks and I loved it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lifelace Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 Melany ... Are you describing out of the bottle scents ... or have you tested them? If so, what type of wax are you using? What percentage did you use? Oops, sorry, should have specified! These are OOB impressions, I just got them today so have not tested them yet!

Darbla Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 I know this is slightly off-topic, but I am so close to trying to bake some real pumpkin cornbread! I've seen it so much in posts here that it started sounding very tasty to me. Any of you actually tried to make it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
