LuminousBoutique Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 I am in LOVE. I really.. cant say enough.But, at 34.00 for 16oz.... YOUCH. Thats almost double what I generally spend on FO, and I am really trying to be more aware of what I am spending on supplies lately.Soooo... anyone found a version of this from another supplier that they like? Its : a blend of Lime, Musk, Lemongrass, Vanilla (1%) ... its a "Trapp candle Co" dupe I guess. Its really unisex and nice.. nobody who has smelled it has had anything but amazing things to say about it.. so I want to keep it around but if I can find a nice version from elsewhere I'd be all over that. the only other places I found it was from Fragrance Oil Heaven and I've never ordered from there before, and the desc. was different. And "The scented nest" where it was described the same but again, almost $30 for 16oz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mzpickles Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Ohhhh! I *just* got a sample of a Bamboo Sugar Cane fo from AH today! It smells lovely oob and it's certainly less expensive ($19.95/lb) than the ones you've mentioned. Description reads:"Clean, herbaceous bamboo blended with the sweetness of pure sugar cane. Notes of rosewood, grapefruit, sweet plum, leafy citrus, Asian grasses and aromatic litsea round out this fragrance oil which creates unique scent. This oil works well in CP soaps making it a premium choice for an entire line of bath & body products as well as candles, air fresheners and incense."Also I'm going to try blending BCN's Bamboo (WYW) with their Sugar Cane (regular line) to see what I get!

grama Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 I started out using BSC from WSP. I had so many that wanted that scent in smelly jellies until I had to find another cheaper version, I like the one from AH. I think they are very close, in fact just about the same. Customers couldn't tell the difference! hth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jokerjen Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 I also get the one from AH/RE and I LOVE IT!!!!! It makes for a nice reed diffuser too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aviator girl Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Well now I am excited because I have an order coming from AH tomorrow and I have a sample of this. Trying to find something in this category so I am encouraged! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyme1911 Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 I purchased WSP's version, and now I only get the AH/RE's. It is awesome, anywhere we can save. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWickedWick Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 AH/RE here for me too...love this stuff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Don't get the one from FOH at Elements! The scent washes out in M&P soap and believe me thats hard to do. I am having a hard time selling a batch of soap I made with the FOH version of Bamboo Sugarcane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck_35550 Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 I like the ah/re too but sure was disappointed in mabel's mint sugar cookie, a mango and the lime in da coconut. The sugar cookie is very beautiful if you are patient with it but customers expect that initial ht to be stonger. I poured at 6.5% so maybe 7 or 8% is a different story. Peaks has always been good and certainly not as expensive as others but still pretty pricey for some of their fos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
annie123 Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 I poured this yesterday in soy so far the CT is weak...but WSP has great quality FO's they are not cheap but some of them are worth the high price and then again AH has some good quality FO's too...

LuminousBoutique Posted May 30, 2010 Author Share Posted May 30, 2010 Yeah I've been very happy with it, but WSP's new shipping and the fact that its almost double what I pay for oils from peaks and CS stings a bit, hehe. I def. will try AH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
