kate772 Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Are Bitter Creek's WYW fragrances really strong enough that you only need to use 1/2 the normal amount? I really like some of them but they are a bit pricey if I'll still need to use my normal 10%.Thanks.Kate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcbrook Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 From my experience 1/2 the usual amount works just fine! I usually use 3% in palm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joym Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 I've only tested a couple, but, yes, I only needed 3% in paraffin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sndfrddy Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Yes. It is true. Like all suppliers, not all their scents throw great in my wax, but the ones that do I only use half the amount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktaggard Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Which ones are worth trying, if you don't mind sharing. TIA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sndfrddy Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 For me Bamboo, Perfect Pumpkin, Fig Pudding are really strong. HTH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktaggard Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Just ordered samples. Darn you all !!!!!! I'm excited to try them, though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kate772 Posted September 26, 2013 Author Share Posted September 26, 2013 I did try the Bamboo and it is doing great at about 5% in C-1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moneypenny Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 They are wonderful and do work very well in soy at 1/2 oz per pound! My favorites are Buttery Gingerbread, Sage and Citrus, Buttercream Crunch, and Honeydew Melon! They are to die for in 100% soy and well worth the money!!

ktaggard Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 Still waiting on my samples. Guess I need to get on the phone!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
se2653 Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 I just tested the Perfect Pumpkin, forgot it was the WYW, and mixed at 7.5%, and it was very strong, and lasted a long time.... will try at at a lower % to check strength and longevity.. but really loved this scent!
