Fern-Marie Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 Hi All,Had a FO from JBN called "Country Club"...they cancelled the FO on me and it's taken off in my line. I have searched the board 'til I am cross-eyed.I remember I ordered this because someone said how great it was.I thought it was a 'dupe' of something...my brain is tired and getting older than me. I cannot remember - hard as I try who steered me toward the FO.The write-up of it was something to do with 'imagine you're on the Titanic, and the men are in their area having brandy and cigars, this scent is reminiscent of that'. I don't think NG's is the same as JBN's was.Can anyone help me with this, please, please!Is there a dupe? Can I replace via another supplier? Anything...throw me a bone here!Thanks for the help.Fern-Marie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scented Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 I thought of Maduro too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caramel Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 How recent is this in your line? If it is new, I say try mixing your own blend. I would buy this oil, but I would also get some teak, tobacco and maybe a wine scent and try your hand at mixing (sniff your original and see if it is close or if something is missing; perhaps ask the vendor what notes were in the FO). It might not be the same, but MAY have the same "feel" to it. That way, you can say something like "improved" or something like that when marketing the change.This way, you don't have to worry about something discontinued all at once, you know; does that make sense? I hope this was helpful and I wish you luck in finding something that works for you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walnutmtn Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 I checked for Archipelago Botanicals Havana and they state the notes are Bergamont, Cuban Tobacco Leaf & Ylang Ylang. Gl Candle Supply carry the dupe but I also found something that sounds similar and you could talk to the vendor and check - http://southernsoapers.com/cart/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=206 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fern-Marie Posted January 27, 2009 Author Share Posted January 27, 2009 Thank you all so much.I do believe that the Archipelago Havana is the name of the dupe that I am looking for.Psyche!!! Can't wait to get it! Phew! I thought I was out of luck - this is the one FO that DH always comments on liking. I can burn this 24/7 without worrying about it overstaying its welcome, ya know what I mean?Thanks again, you guys are great!Fern-Marie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
