Sharon in PA Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 I can't seem to be satisfied with any of the vanillas I've tried...I am melting a tart right now (Flicker's Vanilla Supreme) and I THOUGHT I really liked this one, but in a melt, it smells so artificial! (I think it smells better burning, and I have a regular customer who loves it in a jar) but, DARN! I am not liking it at ALL in a melt!!! It's so hard for me to go by OOB, cause to my nose, a LOT of the vanillas smell soooo fake that way... Is it possible that I should lighten up a bit on the load?? Would that help?What do you all LOVE??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharon in KY Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 My friend thinks they all smell like play dough. I like a lot of vanilla and don't smell what she is smelling so I can't help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scentsme Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 After never being 100% satisfied with any vanillas out there, I finally found Just Scents: Becky's Ultimate Vanlla & after that, I stopped looking. This is the one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the one.Do you smell something nutty in her Ultimate Vanilla?? It is not straight vanilla. It is very strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharon in PA Posted November 19, 2007 Author Share Posted November 19, 2007 I have a sample of one of her newest vanillas in my workshop, and OOB, it smelled VERY nice, I am gonna test it, I think in a jar, and I will post my resluts....have to check on the name, too...:rolleyes2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubure Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 A very nice and true vanilla is Black Vanilla from The Scent Works.I love CandleCocoon's Vanilla Voodoo whch is also very true and yummy, but more buttery - Black Vanilla is pure, straight, perfect.IMO Just Scent's Ultimate Vanilla isn't very natural.

Darbla Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 I just ordered Black Vanilla from Tennessee Candle Supplies. Any of you tried that one?Darbla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candlelady Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 I have used for 7 years Cajun Candles Vanilla Bake (traditional vanilla and very true) and the last 2 years Just by Nature's mexican vanilla (just like the real stuff!). Both are fabulous! IMO These both sell very well for me all year!~Thanks,Carrie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sisterkaren Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 I've really had trouble finding a vanilla that works for us. I absolutely love our latest find-not exactly pure van-, but very yummy vanilla like scent- TN's birthday cake. Throws like crazy for us.

TxGirl Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 I have had a hard time finding a vanilla I like also. So far I like Vanilla Crunch (CandleSource) although it's slightly nutty, and I like Vanilla Velvet (BCN) too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickie1st Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 I like CandleCocoon's Vanilla Voodoo and Vanilla Crunch (CandleSource) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kandlekrazy Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 Candle Science has a new vanilla...of course I haven't tried it yet, but their fo's seem to be pretty right on with the description. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asheebeans Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 I like Tahitian Vanilla by Scent Shack. (as far as straight vanillas go) The creamiest, dreamiest vanilla IMO is NG's Vanilla Silk. Love it, love it, love it!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jane42 Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 We originally started with Cajun's Vanilla Bake, then tried JS Ultimate Vanilla and Vanilla Bean...then went back to Vanilla Bake. Love it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
