Jami Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 I have bought quite a few FO's from with no problems until recently. I swore by their pink sugar after trying this scent from MANY suppliers.Last month when I ordered a new bottle of pink sugar it had changed. This wasn't the first time I noticed that an FO had changed from a previous order but this change made a HUGE difference in my products with a popular scent. Not only is it not as strong, even the color was different. I had posted on their message board asking if it was a reformulation because it wasn't as good. I also asked if anyone else had been a long time buyer of this FO to notice the change so I would know it isn't just candle nose. My post was deleted. I am done buying anything from there. If they can't answer a simple question like that vs. deleting the post, I don't care to buy from them. Since then, my clients have asked me why it was different so I realized it wasn't candle nose.The prices are great but just be forewarned that the FO's are not consistent from purchase to purchase. You get what ya pay for I am not bashing them because I don't feel that accomplishes anything. What works for me may not work for others and vice versa. I just move on to new suppliers if I don't care for their oils or don't have good results. I just wanted to share my recent experience.

erinmfritz Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 I use several of their oils, I'm dissapointed to hear about the pink sugar, I love that one! I recently had the same problem with the lilac. It came in a different color and didn't smell as true as the other one. Bummed me out. I think once I am done with that one, I'm going to try Berts! The other oils I get from there I love, especially the Pineapple upside down cake, YUM! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CDGM Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 I used to get several oils from there (Snowtops) but after the fiasco and totally horrid experience with my last order I have removed them from my list.SW's Pink Sugar is fabulous.... love it:yay: and for Lilac Peaks has the best true one I have found!

Noodle Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 I am not at all happy with this company either for many reasons. This is not meant to be a complaint sort of thread, so I will not go into my many issues. I did like a scent called Sea Blossom a lot.

leisa2003 Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 I kinda wondered about my last order also. I ordered a few snowtop scents, and I know they didn't seem to be the original snowtop scents I had ordered in the past. Anyone else think something simular? It was vanilla bliss, now this is not a ordinary vanilla as most of us know, and this bottle I got, didn't even compare to vanilla bliss.
