Camay Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 Their Red Tea is awesome! One of my all-time favs. I have not used KY's version so I can't compare the two. Also RE's vanilla bean is a great straight vanilla, no cakey or buttery notes to me. I haven't tried the others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grama Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 I have used Celtic Moon Spice and Essence of Bethlehem/Jesus. Essence of Jesus has been popular with customers who have bought the scent. It is a good men's scent, though I have never thought of Jesus as smelling like that! Celtic Moon Spice very good. These are the only ones on your list I have used though have other fo's from them and have not been disappointed with any of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dabbledoya Posted December 31, 2007 Author Share Posted December 31, 2007 ~~grama~~Which other ones have you tried (and liked)? Not ordering until tomorrow, so the list will most likely change a bit:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grama Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 Lavender apples & Oak is popular, vanilla crunch, moon shadow, berry bundt cake, jasmine, alegria, angel heart, chasmere lace, moonlight path (lw), banana walnut cake comes to mind. Amish quilt and celtic moon spice very similar. hthlemon meringue pie also good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scent Cellar Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 You must try Badedas & Celtic Moonspice. For B&B I can recommend Blackberry Sage & Cucumber Mint as they both are great especially in CP soap, body butters & lotions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scented Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 Ditto ginger on the Strawberry Musk. It's goooooooooooooooooood. Gotta wick up on it, but it's one sexy scent. Pink hydrangea. You might try it. I can't wait to, but need to get through inventory first.Others mentioned forget me not as one not to pass up in another thread.

Luci Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 I use a lot of their oils, but only 2 of the ones on your list. The Celtic Moonspice is wonderul, and Dreamcatcher is absolutely divine! If you're a Daystar fan of Blackberry Jam Buttercookies, the Blissful Blackberry is almost identical (at least to me). As smellywax noted above, the Amazing Grace is NOT the philosophy dupe.

Scented Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 For next holiday season you might look at Tapestry. I forgot to mention that one. I think it's a beautiful fragrance. The SnC Very Sexy for Him is great too. I'm sitting on others, including the English Ivy mentioned, but I haven't done anything with it to really comment, except to say it has a fresh, green scent OOB.

dabbledoya Posted December 31, 2007 Author Share Posted December 31, 2007 Well, through deletions and additions, I've got 13 brand spanking new scents to order tomorrow lol. Thanks everyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arlene Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 I love the Forget Me Not. Just poured one yestereday to get away from all the Bakery and Christmas scents I've been smelling. It's a strong thrower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evesorto Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 I have tried about 20 of their oils and everyone of them was a strong thrower in igi 4627 at 10%, 6 oz jar with ECO 8. The ones I considered MUST HAVES:Interlude (Angel T. Mugler type)Hot Apple Pie (CM)- more of a potpourri Apple Cinn, than a food one to me.Strawberry Rhubarb PieAlmost ParadiseVanilla SandalwoodTwigs & BerriesWatermelonhthEve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
never4gotten Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 I have tried several of RE's FO's, mostly in the Chermark catagory as I was a custmer of that company prior to RE buying them out.Monkey Farts is good, more of a banana note than the one from NG I tried which seemed more citrus to me.Dreamcatcher is wonderful and a good seller.Celtic moonspice has very good throw both hot and cold in my wax.Fresh Sliced Cucumber honestly smells just like the name. You can even smell the peal. I have one customer that likes to call it "clean kitchen" cuz she says if she burns one of those in the kitchen it smells like it's clean and she doesn't actually have to clean it, lol.It's hard to go wrong with the chermark line in terms of having a good hot and cold throw IMO, the original owner was very picky about what she carried.
