EnvyCandles Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Looking for a dreamsicle FO. Have tried BCN and it does not seem like a strong scent- although it smells amazing. Wondering if anyone has compared Candle Science Dreamsicle?Also, Candlemakersstore has both a Dreamsicle and an Orange Dreamsicle... anyone familiar with the difference? Generally we like to order from candle science, peak, BCN, candlemakersstore and aztec...Have really been looking for a reason to try some NG FOs...Thanks!

Sister Kya Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 I've tried a few but I like the one from AH/RE best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candlelady Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 If you want a true Dreamsicle scent, it's the one from The Candle Source. I have tried dozens of FO's but this one is hands down, the best and true dreamsicle. Smells just like the ice cream. Really.

pleasureridgecandles Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 BCN is the only one I've tried. I have not tried CS b/c I use soy and it states it is not recommended for soy. Don't know what type of wax you use but thought I'd mention that in case you used soy. Didn't want you to waste money trying it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not let it cure for that long, but I did not think the BC was that strong... what do you think of it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWV Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 I've tried many and got a fuel smell with many of them. Someone on here, ChrisR, I think, suggested Genwax's and I LOVE it!! No fuel, true scent and good throw (but unfortunately, not b&b safe). I also liked summer dreamsicle from Lone Star (don't know if they still carry it, though)--it wasn't a true orange/vanilla, but it was a very nice scent, and no fuel. The closest Trapp version was from Willow Woods, but again, I got the dreaded fuel smell with that one. I'm sure if it's b&b safe, it would be wonderful in soaps, lotions, body sprays, etc. HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
