se2653 Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 i want to order some fo's from cc, just noticed that they are not far from me. any suggestions? thanks for your help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcuset Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 Since I know the search engine isn't working lately - Vanilla Voodoo, Cranberry Compote, Cranberry Cardamom Clove, Ginger Peach (not a Pier 1 dupe - but wonderful in it's own right)...a few off the top of my head. Most of the oils are 2:1 concentration - meaning you only need half as much as you would with most oils. Lyschel is superb with assistance too if you have questions.

marcuset Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 Thought of a couple others for you - If you like Mistletoe from Candle Science - Candle Cocoon's Winter Woodlands Whisper is almost identical, but more concentrated. Bunchberry & Moss is very earthy if you like that sort of thing. Seashells is very much like a men's cologne. Nice as well. Eucalyptus is great for clearing your sinuses! Just used that one this week with some mint. Hope that helps some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
se2653 Posted January 7, 2012 Author Share Posted January 7, 2012 thanks for the recs! i did try to search and had trouble getting it to work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeanie353 Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 Fallen Leaf, Mulberry & Moonbeans, Sultry Angel, Orange Tea & Crumpets, Ooey Gooey Caramel Goodness, White Peony Tea, Brewed Jasmine, Creme Brule Cafe, Cucumber Chaos, Melon, Fig & Apricot....there are a few more I've tested with success but don't come to mind right now. I would suggest using only what is recommended which is under 1 ounce except for one FO Lyschel carries. It varies from 1/2 oz to 7/8. Going higher distorts the FO and can make the wick do funky things from my experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candleblooms Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 My favorites are Chocolate Suede, Raspberry Cordial (very strong), Sage & chamomile, Seaside, and Sultry Angel. I've used these in both pillars and jars (palm & soy). I like Lychel's scents because they are strong and very unique. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
se2653 Posted January 8, 2012 Author Share Posted January 8, 2012 Thank you so much for the recs- and for reminding me to use the lower amt. I'm used to using 7-9% fo per weight, so I'll remember cut that back on these. Looking forwarding to ordering some samples soon- will let you know how that turn out!

wildwings Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Great customer service, and I would agree that her oils are really unique and strong.We only make wickless and her vanilla is the only one I have found that does not get a "funky" smell in our clam shells.

Kaybee23 Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 (edited) I would also like to suggest Serendipity, it is one of my favorites. Solice is nice in wax as well, so is Ooey Gooey Caramel as is Amore Dulce. Also agree Lyschel is a wonderful person to deal with.

se2653 Posted January 12, 2012 Author Share Posted January 12, 2012 thank you, thank you fellow enablers!! just ordered some from CS (I justified it since I needed to get wax, right?- the wax can't come all alone in the box) and of course will need to order some from CC since I have to use up some EL wax I have and may need to get more to experiment with. Please don't get me started on Daystar too! (love, love, love her buttercream frosting). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladysj Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I love the Lavender Lullabye & the customer service is great. I'm going to get together a sample order from some of these recommended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lsbennis Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 I thought CC was also suppose to have some new oils Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeanie353 Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 I got that announcement in an email too. Was at the site about a week ago and didn't see anything there but I could have missed it. Guess I'll go check it out now just in case. I'll come back to post if I see any new FOs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
