Candybee Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 Anybody going to order some of the new FOs from Backwoods? My budget is non-existant at the moment and I am dying to hear about the Lilac and Linen. It sounds exactly like what I would like to put in soap and candles. If you get it would you post your results using it here. Thanks. Quote
heirloomoriginals Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 I love their oils and now that I am not selling anymore, I will just have to try the 1 oz sample sizes for melts or candles. They have such unique fragrances! Quote
Camay Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 Lilac and Linen is the one that sounded the most interesting to me too. If I do end up placing an order, that one is the top of the list. Purple Lilac is the state flower here in NH, so it is BIG around here. If I don't order from BW, I might just try and mix that myself. Quote
koala-nut Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 I made an order on Saturday. I also want to try the Lilac and Linen. Can't wait to get them! Quote
heirloomoriginals Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 I do love their regular lilac, so this new one has to be good! Quote
Candybee Posted March 9, 2009 Author Posted March 9, 2009 I've tried the regular Lilac and agree its a good one. But the Lilac and Linen sounds so fresh and clean and something I bet I and my customers would like.I've got some Lavender and White Linen fabric softener sheets from Arm & Hammer that smell awesome! So I think a Lilac and Linen would be great together.Koala-nut: I can't wait for your order to come in too! You'll have to post how it smells OOB. Pretty please!! Quote
koala-nut Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 Got the shipping notice today. It will be here tomorrow! Quote

koala-nut Posted March 11, 2009 Posted March 11, 2009 Delivery has been rescheduled until the 12th. Quote
Candybee Posted March 11, 2009 Author Posted March 11, 2009 Ratz!! I was getting all excited about you getting your oils and sharing your thoughts on em. Well I guess another day won't hurt..... much. Quote
Camay Posted March 11, 2009 Posted March 11, 2009 I caved and bought two of the new ones: lilac and linen and earth goddess. I shouldn't have read this thread! Quote
funkymonkey66 Posted March 11, 2009 Posted March 11, 2009 I love her peach grove & citrus blossom and vanilla sugar. I would pick those up for sure. Quote
carol k Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 all i can say is omg. the gingerbread latte is to die for. The lilac & linen is awesome too. now this is just oob so it doesn't mean much. Quote
koala-nut Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 I agree. The Lilac and Linen went straight into some corn cob for sachets I am doing for a Mother's Day Swap. The mixing of the 2 is wonderful and I can smell both OOB. The Gingerbread Latte is perfect. Very strong. I can smell the Gingerbread and cinnamon with a latte on the side.The Maui Wowie is very sweet but fruity. Strong on the pineapple. A very cool summer scent.Earth Goddess to me is minty eucalyptus fresh. Sunshine Lollipop reminds me of a milder version of Pink Sugar. I am not crazy about PS but this is OK.Brambleberry Thumbprint is very distinctive. Strong berry scent grounded with the shortbread cookie. I am very happy with all the scents I received. Quote
Candybee Posted March 12, 2009 Author Posted March 12, 2009 They all sound so nice. I think I'm gonna have to try the Lilac and Linen and maybe the Maui Wowee and the Gingerbread Latte.Thanks for the report koalanut! Now all I need is a little bit of dough....:smiley2: Quote
candlelady Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 Well, I just ordered the Gingerbread Latte, Lilac & Linen, Sunshine Lollipop and Bayleaf & Pepper.....Can't wait to try them!Thanks for the info!Carrie Quote
debratant Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 The bayleaf & pepper is my FAVORITE! I ordered a pound of that this morning...as well as 4oz'ers of sunshine lollipop, gingerbread latte, maui wowie, earth goddess. Oh...and the Lemon Tart...I think that's the name. I just love her oils! Quote
