Candybee Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 (edited) For those looking for a good Clove FO as a mixer or straight you can find it at Fillmore Containers. I am very impressed with it. It smells absolutely divine. Its pretty strong in GG palm at 5%.So while the clove shortage lasts you can find it there. For how long I don't know.

JanetsCandles Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Actually Orange and Clove go very well together. I sell a lot of the combination. Does anyone know if there's a problem getting it from Peak? Their website doesn't say that it's backordered or anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noodle Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Apple and clove go well together, and the combo is a great seller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dana Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Thanks for the tip. I was just looking for another clove. Bittercreeks is up to $20lb. Idk maybe Fillmore's is just as high....? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted September 5, 2011 Author Share Posted September 5, 2011 Fillmore's FOs are all $18 per lb and $17 when you buy 5 or 1 lb bottles or more.To Laura-- I posted this because there is a clove shortage right now and its hard to find clove. That also means many oils with clove in it are not available. Many oils like ciders, spice scents, christmas scents, autumn spice scents, pumpkin spice, have a clove component in them.

jackbenimble Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 RE/AH has a good clove. I've only used as a mixer. Not sure what there charging at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksranch Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 I have a customer asking for a "sweet clove, maybe clove with a bit of cinnamon and sugar". Any suggestions on what to mix with clove for this? Maybe CS Strudel & Spice?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dnj Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 CS Strudel and Spice smells just like a sweet cinnamon sugar scent(to my nose) so I'd have to say that would probably work nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted September 6, 2011 Author Share Posted September 6, 2011 Clove, nutmeg, and ginger are awesome together. Maybe try a gingerbread as a mixer. I also got FMC Nutmeg & Ginger and its awesome as a mixer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kandlekrazy Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 The Candle Source still has plain clove, I believe $15 for a pound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lady told me this morning that Clove is her favorite candle fragrance, but she can never find a Clove candle anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
