Holly Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 I have poured and tested a few. I just cannot decide. Maybe my nose is not crazy about Lilac as a candle. I just got done test burning Peak's and still not sure. I have also tested Snowtop's Lilac Blossom and thought that was going to be a go and now I feel like there may be too much of a green note in it. I do have MC Lilac Breeze that I use in the spa line but to me that is not a straight Lilac. I need a straight Lilac. I love the Lilac Breeze though. I tested TCS Lilac and thought that one smelled a lot like Peak's Hyacinth. I tested another one too but have not decided for sure on any of them. I read some really good things about MMS Lilac on the board and was wondering if anyone here has compared Peak's with MMS's. Thanks for any input. I have a fundraiser coming up and would like to offer Lilac. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luci Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 I haven't tried the one from MMS. I found no reason to look any further after using the one from Backwoods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holly Posted February 9, 2009 Author Share Posted February 9, 2009 Thanks! Yes, I saw some good reviews on that one too. Darn....I should have ordered a sample the last time I ordered there, which was just the other day. Maybe I should give that one a try too. Do you use it in soy?

Luci Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Nope, no soy. It's also lovely in cp and m&p. Has a great throw in 4625 paraffin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kigers24 Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 The best I have found is Hungarian Lilac at AH/RE throws great in TN 70/30.I have a coworker who wanted a Lilac that smelled like the lilac bush her mother had.....she smelled this one and said "stop looking this is it".Was at a large 3 day trade show 2 weeks ago and sold out of this one in candles, lotion and soap (MP). Have not tested it in CP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coconut Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Peak's Lilac is my best seller. Everyone says it smells just like real lilac and I agree, having grown up with Lilac bushes in bloom every Spring. You can't go wrong with this one.
