rctfavr3 Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 (edited) HELP! I'm looking for reviews and dupes of these discontinued NG oils. Anyone try them? I have a feeling they were underperformers, but am interested in hearing if any of you guys have tried them?Aloe Vera ClayPizzaChipotle SalsaGuatemalan AvocadoTea Leaf PapayaAny reviews of these past NG oils? The search function isn't finding any review pro or con. The chipotle salsa sounds intriguing as does the Avocado and Clay scent. Just wonder'n.

SuzyK Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 I got a sample of their pizza one time and it smelled so gross. The other ones don't sound bad though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carol k Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 I have the tea leaf papaya. I love it, but it's just not strong enough for me to sale to customers that expect my candles to be super strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rctfavr3 Posted September 4, 2012 Author Share Posted September 4, 2012 That's what I was afraid of. Most of NG's bargain oils were discontinued either because they smelled OFF or because they didn't smell at all! Bummer. Tea Leaf Papaya sounds pretty good.

candlesncats Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Chipolte Salsa sounded great to me, but turned out to be terrible. Strong, harsh, burnt chemial like smell oob. Even tried in wax-no better. I really wanted to love this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even tried in wax-no better. I really wanted to love this one. ack! Nasty. That sounds awful! I'm still interested in trying it though. I have that desease where if you tell me NOT to press "that" button...I'll press the button. Same goes for FOs, if someone says THAT fragrance is downright horrid...well, I have to try it! Just to see. But, yeah I have a feeling I'm not going to like this one. Too bad too...sounds like it be a great blender fragrance.

debratant Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 I think you will find a use for it in blending. I can barely use a blender, let alone try my hand at blending fo's I can't wait to give it a whiff again tomorrow morning, just to refresh my memory.

Scented Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Now see I had no problem with chipotle salsa in wax. I have the aloe clay one and was going to soap it. Just haven't soaped much this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rctfavr3 Posted September 7, 2012 Author Share Posted September 7, 2012 (edited) I hope to try it. I can't believe they're getting rid of the chipotle salsa. Currently you can purchase a half lb for $8. The Aloe Clay sounded good too, but haven't tried it either. With these oils currently in the bargain section of NG's site; I suspect they'll either be reformulated or discontinued (most likely the later)Hope to try some before they dissapear completely! Some of those bargain oils deserve a reformulation. Drag Strip was always promising but was so Weak that no one, not even the diehard NASCAR fans, liked it. Sad to see some of them go.
