Aztec vs Brambleberry

Saponificarian · May 27, 2018

Hi, my name is Sarah and I am an Fo Ho!

Soo, my mum gave me $150 for my birthday and I would like to buy fragrance oils with it. I am torned between Aztec and Brambleberry. Aztec for the price and quality is not bad. I have their Kumquat, Lovespell and Blackrasperry Vanilla. Not bad at all but I also love Brambleberry, for quality and very lovely fragrances.

For roughly the same amount of money from Aztec I am looking to get
* 2lbs Driftwood
*2lbs Black Sea
*2lbs Walk in the woods
*2lbs Cool Water and I get 4 1oz bottles of different samples of fragrances so 8lbs of fragrance for my buck.

From Brambleberry: I would be able to get
*1lb Blushing Orchid
*1lb Daisy Chain
*1lb Spiced Red Tea
*1lb Grapefruit lily
*1lb Jade.

I have been agonizing since April on which supplier to go for, my husband don’t get why??

But what does he know?

So please which would you pick? Aztec or Brambleberry? Any fragrance you think I should add or remove from my list? Now if only hubby would pay for one of the order... I would have both but if wishes were horses and all.

I got a big order from them and really like their FO's.
Prices are cheap, and they have REVIEWS on their site.

I notice Aztec has no soaping notes or reviews

I have no other thoughts as I only have old FO's from BB that I got 2nd hand.

p.s. Aztec has this 5 for $5 coupon http://www.candlemaking.com/5for5

Strangely enough, I haven’t had much luck with Naturesgarden. I don’t have so much FO from them but of the ones I have, I only like Country Garden.

I take it you’ve tested all those FOs in smaller amounts first?

A few of them but because I am shipping across the world, it is not cheap. It cost almost the same to ship 1oz and 16oz of fragrance so it’s all in or not at all.
