2rottndogs Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 I know I've seen it explained, but for the life of me I can't find it. Candle Science has the leaves for ratings... what do they mean? I've looked on their site and can't find an explanation either.Thanks for the help.Kimberly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtybirdsoaps Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 How strong they are in soy wax, but in my experience they dont give the fos enough credit, ones that only had 2 leaves threw like crazy in my 100% soy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celicagtca Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 Glad you mentioned that as I was wondering about a couple of those. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything with a 2 or 3 would be awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtybirdsoaps Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 Glad im not the only one that thinks that. I know with a 3 they usually run me out of a room theyre so strong lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cozyaromas Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 Before I knew the rating I figure if they weren't a 3 don't even try them, I guess I was surely wrong!!:embarasse I'll try 2's as well, and maybe even a 1 just to see how strong it is...thanks for the info!!!

idacandlelady Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 I'm really glad this was brought up. I was looking at their FO's and only looking at the full leaves. I guess when I order I will go ahead and try the ones with less. Thanks all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heidijo Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 Some of the two-star rated fragrances are my favorites, such as cotton candy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donna4909 Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 I have some of the 2 leaf FO's, and they are awesome. The pineapple coconut is highly recommended! I love love love that FO! Also tried the sun shower, and it was extremely strong in my soap. Haven't tried it in wax yet, but the soap is smelling up my whole kitchen.

PurpleHippie Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 I also have to agree. Many times I have been disappointed by ratings given on other supplier sites. At least my experience with the FO's never matched their ratings. CS has the most accurate ratings that match my testing results. I use paraffin but I only use FO's that I feel are extremely strong for HT. I always find that if CS list a high rating for their FO's in soy then I will usually always be pleased with it in my paraffin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
