  1. I like it, it didn't sell that well for me, but I don't know why because it is a nice scent.
  2. NG clementime is great, had it in soap. But the best strongest fruity scent ever is Scentworks satsuma guava!!
  3. Yes there was some controversy about this name, I can't remember what but it was not good!!
  4. Yes that sounds like a good starting point, I am using an LX16 in a 9 oz hex. I haven't tried the jelly jar yet and I don't do tins.
  5. CMS has an awesome orange danish too!!
  6. I agree MC is great, last a long time, works in soy fantastic!!
  7. I have been testing 6006 and CD were too big so I am trying LX's they seem to work better. Candlebuddy uses Zincs! HTH
  8. Love Spell still is a hit for me, and I personally do not like it. I do like Endless Love though. I get these at TN Pink Sugar still sells, and I use ICS version. Another great dupe is NG sun moon and stars, I used to have this pefume and this fo is right on. I used it in candles, lotion, and my friend made CP soap which was great! Also NG paris hilton can can type is very good!! Others: SW fata morgana AH/RE little black dress Ah/RE dreamcatcher (LW) CC sultry angel
  9. Millcreek's fresh cut grass is very good, strong too!
  10. Hot Orange Danish is awesome used in paraffin and soy both, used at less than 1 oz per LB. I have only used this one and it is really great!! Very nice bakery scent!!
  11. I use hex jars and jelly jars. I wanted to get the victorian jars but they cost so much more. I want to try and keep costs down. Fillmore has great prices and even if you have to get it shipped they will help you with the best deal on shipping. I have some tins to test, but I have yet to start testing them. Some jars are so expensive, it is a wonder you can make any $$, LOL!
  12. Thanks Travis for the info. I think that gas prices have a lot to do with it for sure. But like Candybee said C&S are high anyway!! It's all a conspiracy to snub the little businesses!!
  13. AH/RE longwycks gardenia AH/RE longwycks lilac LS flowering dogwood MC honeysuckle
  14. clean cotton, harbor mist, raspberry guava, vanilla romance. I have tried all of these and they are very strong.
  15. Heartfelts rocky mountain pine is the best. http://www.heartfeltcandlesupply.com/FO.html
  16. I do like the vanilla sandalwood from BCN that is BNL oil. Also what about sun warmed sandalwood from Candle Cocoon, I have not tried this but I am assuming it is good, anyone try this one??
  17. 6 % and I am finding a longer cure time is better, like 2 weeks!
  18. I usually pour 1-2 lb batches of wax at 6% FO, for containers. When making votives, i usually pour 2 lbs at 8%, and melts I do in 1 lb batches at 8%.
  19. IDK about AH/RE but Lonestar has the best candy cane ever!!
  20. Wicker stickers from CMS work the best for me!! http://www.thecandlemakersstore.com/category/wickstickers/
  21. I have only tried a few, but the few I tried were very good, and very strong.
  22. Strawberry Jam has been a great scent, works in soy too!! I like their cranberry, WYW buttery gingerbread, BNL toffee maple crunch, vanilla bean supreme, BNL sandalwood vanilla, lime leaf and lily. JMO
