Fragrances from the Jar Store?

[SpaceGirl]

Help, please! I posted in the business section a couple of weeks ago about supplying candles for a local company to go in hotels, spas, etc.... Well I went on Thursday to pick up some jars and a fragrance to test. Got a few poured and they're coming with me on my trip to test.

Anyways -- I just found out today that they are getting their fragrances from the Jar Store (or at least that's one of their FO suppliers). Now the guy I'm working with did say to give feedback on the FO because he's not 100% sure that the fragrances are performing well in wax.

Has anyone here used Jar Store FO's and what has your experience been with them? I will give him feedback based on how the sample he gave me performs, but I'm thinking if the FO's aren't great quality to begin with then I'm not going to be able to consistently create a good product for them.

I hadn't gotten an assortment of FO samples from them last year and thought they seemed a bit on the light side. They are just a drive for me so I was hoping I would have better luck. I am able to get my jars and wax from them and save on shipping.

I use their Ginger Fig and Bamboo Teak. Both are super strong and work great in my wax. You can cut back to 1 oz. per pound. I use Golden Brands 464.

Thanks for the replies! It helps to know that other people have had positive experiences with their FO's -- I just don't hear about many using them so I was a little unsure.
