rctfavr3 Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 (edited) I had a customer today looking for, and I quote, "Knock you on your Grass" FO.They described it as smelling like a cut lawn. Is this an actual FO? I like the name! I've tried a few "fresh cut grass" fragrance oils, but non that were intensely grassy. I offered her a sample vial of FCG from Natures Garden and both of us agreed it was more "fresh", then freshly cut grass.Have any of you found an almost sickly intense grass FO. I'm pretty sure thats what she's looking for. I thought about Meadow from CS, but It's not really a single scent. I'd be interested in hearing from you all. Is something like this even available? FOfinder shows a few options...have you tried any? Edited January 27, 2012 by rctfavr3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuzyK Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Putting them in wax may change the scent. I tested the Fresh Cut Grass from NG and thought it was dead on and so did my tester. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 My fav fresh grass FO is Fillmore Containers. Also tried Peaks and its pretty good too but more sweet than I like while Fillmore's is more earthy like dirt and grass and smells like a fresh mowed lawn with dirt thrown in.

Candybee Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 No. Next time I'm at Fillmores I'll take a sniff. They carry several killer FOs that are great in soy and palm. Their fresh grass is very nice especially with spring season coming up soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so how does it throw in you experience? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Do you use soy in this FO? If so how does it throw in you experience?I use palm. If it helps Fillmore tests all their scents in C3 before they sell them. I have only had one FO that didn't throw well for me and that was the Amish Bread.But I have used many of their FOs in CB135 before I switched to palm.

Candybee Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 (edited) I do use CSN wicks.Any reviews on the English Ivy yet? I know-- I'm not being very patient. Always on the lookout for a fresh, clean, green, type scent. Edited February 9, 2012 by Candybee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rctfavr3 Posted February 13, 2012 Author Share Posted February 13, 2012 (edited) A review of Filmore's Fresh Grass and English IvyFresh Grass - green. A grassy scent, with a touch of dirt, and subtle warmth. Love it in the bottle. A great one note scent. Not quite "true" grass, but the best I've sampled yet. Good. ***English Ivy - Herbal, Green, earthy. A very good FO with strong waxy herbal nuances. I smell: thyme, clover, grass, cucumber, ivy, and maybe even oakmoss. Smells very fresh, without any floral characteristics. Very Green and Earthy. Dry down is a pleasant dirty-cucumber smell. No musks at all. Great. **** Edited February 13, 2012 by rctfavr3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
