rctfavr3 Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Holy crap -- it is just SO amazingly good!!! and I don't tolerate spicy scents well. just awesome, that's allI got an email from her today. Seems like she's answering messages and churning out some quality FOs. Good to know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeggyK Posted September 14, 2012 Author Share Posted September 14, 2012 Yep. It must have just been lack of a smooth organization with the work day and playing catch up with the mess left from Alabaster. Hopefully the email checking will become part of her work day. (I think she now gets how important communication is). The two times I have ordered from her they've gone out the same day, so that's a big plus too. The Muled Cider is a good crisp cider smell, strong. I also got Kudzu and Peach Mag Rasp.I am satisfied that these are the Alabaster oils. very good stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume it's not overly spicy and more true!? Had planned on ordering it. What's your thoughts on the Kudzu? I purchased a Kudzu FO from FragranceBuddy that smelled more like grape soda to me.

PeggyK Posted September 14, 2012 Author Share Posted September 14, 2012 The MC to me is like a sweet apple juice with crisp spices.The only Kudzu I'd ever smelled was Alabaster's. It smells like grape to me but I don't detect a soda note ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It smells like grape to me but I don't detect a soda note ...Yeah, the notes I got from FB's Kudzu were a really fake candy-like grape smell with a twinge of effervescent metallic notes. So hopefully this one will be a little better. I might try blending the Community Candle Supply's Kudzu with a little basil FO/EO to give it more herbal earthiness and to the cut the obvious grape smell a bit. She emailed to say that she'll be adding Alabaster's Fresh Cut Grass FO! I read a few reviewers on here that said it smelled awful. But TO ME it was one of the truer grass fragrances from any supplier. Stinky, sure but realistic. Look forward to getting that one.Thanks for the info on the MC. THAT sounds perfect!

PeggyK Posted September 14, 2012 Author Share Posted September 14, 2012 I never smelled FCC but I will contact to ask if there are plans to bring back Tangerine Dreams. That was another favorite. Sweet/tangy fresh orange Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChandlerWicks Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 (edited) Hopefully if we all order she won't go out of business. Joannec tried some of her FOs & loved them.Too funny we must have typing at the same time! Edited February 10, 2013 by ChandlerWicks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joannec Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Haha i know ! Yes I do, I love the ones that I tried, only a couple that I wasn't keen on . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justajesuschick Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 I tried some of her FO's and I LOVE them. So much so that even just as a hobbyist I went back to order big bottles.megandgarr here (Dessa) recommended her Mulled Cider since I was buying everyone's MC and was going insane to find one I liked. It is apparently a straight up dupe for Gold Canyon's MC. I never tried that but I am in LOVE with Community's MC.Also LOVE her Cranberry Spice. Sweet and delicious.Friends and family keep asking for more melts in these 2 scents. I need to try some others. I had a great experience. Good communication, fast ship, great FO's-all the things I like! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joannec Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 (edited) Yes I really like spiced pear, egg nog, home sweet home, key lime pie, coconut lime verbena, baby powder, blueberry cheesecake, Caribbean coconut, cherry almond biscotti, coconut cream pie, there is more that I have but will have to get my notes out Would love to try that mulled cider but flash point is over 200 and can't get it shipped to uk, off to look at cranberry spice Forgot to say I think her customer service is great, replies back to you (unlike some companies), there was a slight hiccup with being over charged with shipping but it was corrected straight away.

Nikon Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 I will +1 to CCS. I just made a batch of CPHP with her Gardenia Tuberose and my entire downstairs is filled with the aroma. It is my favorite Gardenia so far. I might have to expand into candles after this, or make a batch of soap every night :> Plus Paula is awesome too.
