tootie04 Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 I bought a whole box of testers of someone here....I am finally getting around to testing them.Black Raspberry Vanilla....Ex throw. To me it smells like KY's blackberry sage, I dont smell the vanilla. I like it though!! This one was tested in 70% EL mill/ 30% IGI6006 I am still burning it and I really like it. I am going to test it again in IGI6006 and see how it does.I just poured the Elegant Orchid....smells wonderful in the wax!! this one is in IGI 6006 in a 4oz tin.Just poured the fig & melon....yum!! I love this one too. This one is in IGI 6006 in a 4oz tin too.Berts FO's seem to me, to be much better in the wax than OOB.tootie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holly Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 Thanks Tootie for the reviews. I have some samples from them for the first time. I have not had a chance yet to get them in wax but look forward to when I do. I sure love their prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bells4shells Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 Thanks for the reviews! I've been wanting to test out some of her oils and haven't got a chance to yet. I'm esp excited to hear how great Lemon Biscotti Pie is. I absolutely LOVE lemon scents and am looking for a strong one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8-GRAN-ONES Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 If you make CP soap..that Redwood and Cedar makes a very nice mens soap..it turns a carmel color...but at least not that choc. brown..and I have to admit I like it for me too...

I have had it out to pour. I have just 1 oz. of it, and I may need to use less than usual....don't want to get the fuel smell. Thanks!

tootie04 Posted May 23, 2008 Author Share Posted May 23, 2008 I saw the wick up warning too. I will keep that in mind.The 4oz tin with the RRD 47 and elegant orchid (berts) 1st 3 hr burn was just OK. It would be OK for a small bathroom or Bedroom. It is a very soft scent. Maybe better in soap??I just lit the other one fig & melon. I will report on it later.tootie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tootie04 Posted May 23, 2008 Author Share Posted May 23, 2008 The fig and melon was stronger. It had a much better throw IMO.I lit the orchid one again and put it in the bathroom/BR area and closed the door (we have a fifth-wheel) and the throw is much better in the smaller space.tootie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candlelady Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 I'll be pouring tomorrow:Orange BlossomBaby FreshCabernetVanilla LatteBlackberryOOB, they are all wonderful! Question: What am I smelling in the Orange Blossom? Smells kinda detergenty? I'm not familiar with that FO, but thought, what the heck $8.99 for 24 oz.....I have the Lemon Biscotti Pie and I just love it! Creme Brulee is wonderful!Thanks,Carrie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rae Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 I have bought a lot of Bert's FOs and love them all. So far they all have a great HT and CT. I have used them in 6006 and paraffin. Love her scents.Rae Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharon in PA Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 In case someone didn't see the other post about the Marshmallow Madness, it is doing GREAT in my 50/50...4 oz tin drifting out of my LR and into my kitchen...just get it into the wax, it has an odd smell OOB, but that dissappears completely in wax when burning, sweet creamy and good!
