deb426 Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 I am not fond of florals either but there comes a time...For my floral scents, I use Honeysuckle Jasmine and Sweet Pea and Vanilla, both from CS. Both are very strong. The Sweet Pea is especially popular with my customers. HTHDeb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Camay Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 carol k, I hope Millcreek is paying you lots for all the advertising you do for them! Just kidding. I have tried a bunch from them and been very happy with the quality. The chamomile and musk melon is on my list to try next. BTW, in NH we call them cantaloupe.

deb426 Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 In PA we call them cantaloupes but my family is from southern WV and I grew up hearing them called "mush melons" by my grandparents. Whatever they are, I am anxious for the home grown ones!Deb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carol k Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 lol, I wish they did too. I really do order lots from other suppliers & if i find great oils i really do recommend them. I guess what a cantaloupe is called depends on your roots & not what part of the country you are from, or live in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miniiB Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 I use sweet pea from the candlesource, IT SMELLS GREAT and had a nice throw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babyv Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 I second the Sweet Pea & Vanilla from Candle Science. I just poured it a few days ago and it's a really soft floral, not to overpowering. Laura Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeahRB Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 French Market from Lonestar is awesome and this is coming from someone who can't stand florals. They describe it as:Flowerstall with roses, magnolia, gardenia, tuberose, and arris blossom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 When you order from Peak again, try their hyacinth and honeysuckle. Orchid ... Haven't really found a straight one, but you know the Black Orchid from Southern Gardens is splendid as is Calypso Orchid from Scent Works. Gardenia -- Peak. You might even try their lilac.

Candybee Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 Lavender. I sell it year round. I like CS and Tradewinds the best. But I seem to recall that Southern Soapers has the best lavender. Haven't tried it so I wouldn't know. But its such a classic you should have it as one of your florals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mindy5140 Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 I just went through a major testing for florals and of course all my testers including myself aren't big floral fans. But we did add 3 of them.Lilac and Hydrangea Heaven from NG and Rose from Peaks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Circle Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Honeysuckle and Jasmine from Candlewic are very popular for us and are very strong so go easy on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
