evesorto Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 I got nine oils and for now can only rate oob. I think that I might make tarts with them this weekend to see how they incorporate with wax. If they do mix, then I will try candles. I bought nine perfume dupe oils in the bulk section and total cost was about $66 shipped.Six of the oils were very close/exact to the original:Cool Water (L)Oscar de La Renta (L)KnowingMarc Jacobs LolaChanel ChanceChanel CocoTwo of the oils were not dupes, but still pretty:BeautifulEternity (L)One of the oils I don't know what to say ):Tresor (had an orange asprin smell to it)hth,Eve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koala-nut Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 I love this place! I don't get the oils though. I just buy the ready made super cologne stuff in perfume bottles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darbla Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 These are not candle and soap FOs, though, are they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evesorto Posted April 16, 2010 Author Share Posted April 16, 2010 Sad to say, none of the oils mixed well with wax. I tried about 8% fragrance load.Eve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lauramw71 Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 I think these are already cut oils right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evesorto Posted May 1, 2010 Author Share Posted May 1, 2010 They are supposed to be Bulk oils and I thought that meant that they were for my own mixing purposes, ie - oil for roll-on, shower gel, etc. Eve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faerywren Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 These are prepared fragranced body oils. They aren't meant to be used in candle or soap preparations. They are for re packaging as roll on perfumes or body oils. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lauramw71 Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 I think the common scents is on the same lines. I bought some "FO" from them.. will not mix in ANYTHING! not cyclo, not fco, not jojoba. Bummed me out cuz they are the only place that I can find Euphoria Spring Temptation. So I just put in a roller the way it came.. works fine, but I wanted to make stuff with that scent. it's fabulous! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evesorto Posted May 5, 2010 Author Share Posted May 5, 2010 That's what I'm going to do - package up some roll-ons so it doesn't have to be a loss. The scents were nice, but, like you, I wanted to make up some gels, lotions, wax, etc.Eve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
