RetroMetroChic Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 I personally don't understand tea scents not my cup of tea, no pun intended. So I dont' know where to start. I usually avoid anything with tea in the name. But many of my customers are requesting tea blends. Looking for strong throw in para-soy as well as some for B&BWhat are some great Tea Blends, aka fruity teas, floral teaor even plain teas etcI have read Iced Kenon Black Tea was good to blend with has anyone tried that with success, say could you make Raspberry Tea with it??

ProudMarineMom Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 I think the White Tea and Berries from Candle Science smells wonderful. I chose it as the free sampler to try and now wish I would have bought a larger size!Didn't try it in my soy blend, just straight soy, 464, and it threw great for me. CS only gives it two leaves for soy, but I was impressed. And, it's safe for B&B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheWickedWick Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 I love the White Tea & Ginger from NG...made fab soap & lotion. I also like the plain White Tea from there also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 I use the Red Tea from Elements/Flickers as a mixer. Best basic tea fragrance I have found with no other notes. I love mixing it with rose or other florals and fruits to make the tea scent I want. I've also mixed it with sugar cookie or french vanilla for a great english tea and cookie/bisquits scent.

xxxtennillexxx Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 NG has many tea scents & I have heard many good reviews. Here are a few they offer... Boston Tea Party, Cranberry Apple Tea, Chai Tea, Mango Sage Tea, Mint Mango tea, White Tea & Ginger... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmhoneybear Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Don't forget the Cranberry Ginger Spice Tea from Elements. So good! It is one of my favorite scents of all time. Oh, and I love Green Tea from Peak and Green Tea from Bert's Heaven Scent. They don't smell anything like each other to me, but are both great.

Barbara AL Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 I mix Orange Spice with the Black Keecum Tea and Make an Orange Spice Tea you could mix Spearmint E.O. for a Mint Tea, Mango for a Mango Tea it can go on and on for so many varities of scents.Barbara AL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBE Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Black Tea would be a good blend with just about anything you can imagine. RaspberryBlackberryBergamot Any kind of CitrusJasmineVanillaHoneyPeachThe most recent tea blend I've tried... a mixture of:Black Tea, Vanilla, Berries, Green Grass, & Honeysuckle Jasmine.

jaxxcandles Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 Can anyone recommend the best FO that would smell the most like "iced tea" and where to get it. Would the black tea mentioned above be the best place to start? Thanks for any info.Jackiehttp://jaxxcandles.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mzpickles Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 I haven't tried it (yet!) but Lonestar has an "Iced Tea" FO that sounds yummy, not sure about the black teas mentioned earlier in this thread tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
