Candlebuddy Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 I'm going to order a fo sample pack from www.cajuncandles.com. I thought I would ask for any suggestions about must haves. I'm mainly interested in fall/holiday scents but all suggestions are appreciated. [edited to remove advertisement] From my searches, this is my list so far ... Apples & Berries, Apple Strudel, Vanilla Bake, Pecan Caramel Swirl. I use a soy blend. Any suggestions/comments/opinions would be great. TIA.

elfcat Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 I'm bumping this one because I'm curious too. I haven't heard a whole lot of feedback on Cajuns FO's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBE Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 All of their oils are quite good. I can tell you what I have used in B&B. Strawberry PatchLime and Lemongrass (pretty awesome)Seashore (one of my bestsellers in lotions and body sprays, but the smell makes me sick to my stomach)Coco MangoVanilla BakeCotton Fresh (or is it Fresh Cotton? )Coconut Macaroon (smells soooo good OOB, but haven't gotten it in anything yet)I'm slowly trying to edge away from Cajuns... even though they are like 30 minutes away from me. They prefer online orders rather than pick up orders, if you pick up, you have to have a minimum of 75.00, you can't pick it up the same day you order, you can only go on certain days, etc., too many stupid rules. So I figured I'd throw my money elsewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PixieWick Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 WOW ! that is a lot of stupid rulesone would figure its easier on everyone to pick up an order Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunkie68 Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 I haven't used a lot from Cajun, but have had good results with the ones I have used. I think my favorite is Strawberries & Champagne. Their Vanilla Bourbon is nice, too, and the Southern Jasmine. And it's not a FO, but I love love love their Cajun Clean. I use it to clean up my molds, and it works great on other greasy messes around the house, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candlebuddy Posted August 7, 2008 Author Share Posted August 7, 2008 Thanks everyone who responded so far. I'm not a total stranger when it comes to Cajun Candles; I started making candles with a votive kit from there. From my experience, the quality of their products are awesome and so is their customer service. The scents that I've used so far have all been strong throwers in soy blend. These in particular come to mind ...Lavender (beautiful scent - customers love it)Blueberry (true and sweet)Pear Glace - (gorgeous; more than just a pear)Right now I want to order fall/winter samples and take advantage of their sale ... so I thought I'd ask for any opinions from those who use their fo's. So ... keep 'em coming! :smiley2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 I haven't tried Cajun. I already have way too many suppliers! LOL But I do have a friend that uses them and she says she has been very pleased with their oils. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marty Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 I use Cajun's Baby Powder, Sugar Cookie and Mulberry Madness. These are excellent oils. I do a lot of Scented Bears and these oils throw like crazy. They are also good in candles.Marty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snapdragon2 Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 You must try their Apples & Berries and Cocomango......both are super strong. I'm not an apple fan either, but I love Apples & Berries. Honeydew Melon is another strong one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
