mzpickles Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 I've read a lot of older posts on this board about how Starville has the best Creme Brule FO in the universe, but I don't see a link to their site under the Supplier Abbreviations above. Are they flakey about filling orders or is it just an inadvertent omission? They have an Applewood FO that I'd like to try and I would like to see what all the fuss is about with their Creme Brule, but if they're one of the bad companies that doesn't respond to their customers and takes 3 months to fill an order then I wouldn't want to order from them. Any feedback would be appreciated! TIA! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soshiegirl Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 I do love their Creme Brulee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deisel Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 sorry-know this is no help to you, but i was thinking of ordering some scents from starville myself. reading the older posts i have become (slightly!!!) obsessed with sniffing havana & high maintenace. are starville's good dupes for these? they don't have scent descriptions for them so can't see how they match up with the originals. also, is it true that their Tuscan garden is really tyler's Diva? i'd really like to give them a try, so any help/advice is welcome!!tia-kris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debra Phelps Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 Ok, I use them and love them. I go in and see them and know their products pretty good. Yes, the creme brulee is awesome. My top seller for 5 years. High maintenance smells like Tyler candle. It is different. You either like it or not. I use it. Tuscan gardens I am not sure of. I never smelled Diva. I don't carry that one. I love their sandlewood vanilla, pumpkin bread, pumpkin spice, apple cinnamon butter, all of their reg. scents like pomegranite, strawberry, etc are excellent. I am not so happy with mac apple, but love their green apple. If you want to know about a scent, ask me. There are too many to name. They come in glass bottles. Full strenght scent. I use soy and they are strong enough for me. They get their stuff out fast. I am very impressed with Starrville. www.tylerstarrville.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWV Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 I love Starrville as well. I use their kumquat, raspberry guava and Christmas Splendor. They are strong, true and I've always had good customer service with them. HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RetroMetroChic Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 I ordered the creme brulee and it is strong. This creme brulee smells very simular to kY Creme BruleeNo chocolate of carmelized notes to itwhile I find both Candlescience and Peaks Creme Brulee to havea yummy carmelized note to them but the throw is better with Starville It depends on what type creme brulee you like, I like to mixthe starville with Peaks or CS to get the carmelized goodness I likewith the strong throw. I also ordered the Mexican Vanilla and it too was strong so I suspectmany of the oils are super strong wish they had a sampler!!Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glittergirl Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 Love their Kumquat. I rename it "fruit stand" it's a good seller in the summer for me. I have had no problems with them, I always have friendly and fast service. Oh, I use paraffin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
