annie123 Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 I am thinking of getting the following fo from candles and supplies:Cinnamon Apple BerryCinnamon VanillaFall AfternoonPomegranate Martini7 UpI haven't use them in a long time but I remember that their oils where weak. Are these any good in KY Tart blend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Crab Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 I wish I could help you out but I've never used any of those fragrances from C&S. some of their FOs are weak and I go to other suppliers for what I want. Having said that though, to me, they have the best Cinnamon Stix & Vanilla Bean I have come across. Christmas Rose, Drakkar, & White Diamonds is also very good.

debscent Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 I personally think you can do better than C&S. The scents you are looking at are not complex. I have always found C&S oils to be diluted and weak. Sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry.Do you know of a better:Vanilla Bean - better than plain vanillaCinnamon Stix - not just cinnamon or red hotI would like to try others but I hate wasting money and these two are in my top 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
annie123 Posted September 29, 2012 Author Share Posted September 29, 2012 Have you tried Candle Science Cinnamon Sticks? Yes, I remember C&S fragrance oils being weak that's why I stopped buying from them many years ago. So I guess I'll just keep my money.

MrsPacNW Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Vanilla~ Vanilla Voodoo at Candle Cocoon..I don't use a cinnamon anymore..But I do use Cinnamon Vanilla from Elements. It's a very popular scent this time of year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debscent Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 I don't carry a vanilla bean, but I do like Cinnamon Stix from Candle Science. I have vanilla bean noel from Aztec that I haven't poured, but that has more of a carmel note to it. Good luck in your search! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carol k Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 The only 2 that i've tried & were worth keeping are vanilla pods & hazelnut creme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darbla Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 By chance has their quality improved since the above comments about them being weak? I was wondering about these: Witches BrewApple Brandy FigAutumn AfternoonSensual Vanilla Musk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 (edited) I love C&S Witches Brew. I have used it in palm wax candles and CP soap and it is awesome. It does discolor in CP but I don't mind. Haven't tried it in soy wax so can't tell you how it performs. I too have more misses than hits with C&S. But the hits tend to be exceptional when they are. Some of my all time favs from CS are: Bayberry Apple SpiceWitches BrewVanilla PodsChristmas SplendorOrange (I use as a mixer with cranberry for fall. Its really good in palm and M&P) I've heard great reviews of their Harvest Spice. Its one of their best sellers but every time I have tried to get a sample they were out of stock. Its infuriating!

Jcandleattic Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 I tend to have pretty good luck with their fragrances, however most my scents from them are summer/spring/fruit type scents, not fall/winter/Christmas. Ones I love are Blue LagoonRaspberry LemonadeFresh Squeezed OrangesChocolate (I mix this with their FSO and it smells like one of those chocolate oranges people get at Christmas, so that can be a Christmas scent I guess! LOL) There are others, but I would have to consult my notes. These are just ones I know of off the top of my head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Yes-- the citrus types I have tried orange, lime, and fresh squeezed orange I was not disappointed. I forgot their Drakkar is also a good one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
