so-soy Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 I am burning Cupid from JS right now, and it is throwing very well, it is the best smelling pomegranate I have tried.

VerticallyEnhanced Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 Thanks, I will try the new cupcake.Do you know where I can get Sandalwood that works goos in soy?I don't use a straight Sandalwood but JBN makes a great vanilla sandalwood that throws well in soy. In fact about 90% of the oils I have tried from them throw amazingly well for me in soy. They have top notch customer service as well.
