Dragon's Blood

[soapmaker]

cmzaha I'm in the dark about how you buy/sell F.O.s Is your DB better than others? and how do you order?

I meant how do I order from you? I have a U.S. address I would send it to. I would like a lb. if this happens.

please put me in 8 oz as well.
Thank you

Looks like you are promised about 12 to 15 pounds so far. How close do you need to get to be able to afford the order?

Let us know when you’ve got a quote. I’d like an 8oz but we just bought tickets to Europe so timing/prices will probably dictate what I’m able to purchase

Right now I just need to wait and see if my friend is going to order fragrance on his end. I just cannot for the full 75lbs. This is not a cheap fo even at these amounts. He is going to keep me updated. I said I would take up to 40 lbs

Okay DB is going to be ordered, (25lbs) but it has gone up $2.50 per lb :-( so my price will have to reflect it. Sorry I am assuming it will be 2-4 weeks but will know more when my friend gets back to me. This may be our lost shot at this particular DB since the manufacturer keeps upping up their minimum requirements. Apparently they do not want to deal with the smallish supplier.

When I get an approximate date I will be holding a pre-buy to help offset the cost. Will start a new thread when I know more on time

Thanks for keeping us updated!

This is a bit premature but I should be ordering 25 lbs of Dragon's Blood in the next week or so, but not sure how long production will take. I am just putting out feelers to find out if anyone be interested in some. I really did not need the full 25#'s but was the least I could get made. This is the DB I have used for a couple of years and love. It is very complex, soaps well but does turn dark brown, although not the almost black some will turn. It is not a cheap DB, but runs around $25 per lb, I have not received my final quote. This is my best seller and really helps build a men's clientele. Some that smell it smell cola, some smell chocolate and some smell vanilla, I smell them all... I soap it at 1 oz -1.1 oz per lb and it is quite strong. Some would probably go less than my percentages.

We tried to get it made in another fragrance house but it just did not have the depth of this one and accelerated pretty bad. I was sorry it just did not work and smell as well because it was quite a bit less expensive. Many times with FO you get what you pay for. NG's DB was a disaster for me and the closest to mine is from Pure Fragrance but that one goes an extremely dark chocolate.

Forgot to mention the cost will be what I pay for it

I'm interested! Dragon's blood is so great and the one you're having mixed sounds very complex!

About how much per Pound, minimum amount, fee for bottle and shipping ? I think 5# would fit in a Flat rate box ?

I got some before - it is FAB. Discolors to a chocolate milk color (vs very dark brown or black like some) very rich and complex. Sticks well.

She will start a new post when she has all the information available.

In the first post, she says $25/lb. She mentions that the price has increased, but I'd say $25-$30/lb is a reasonable guesstimate (for now). As for 5 lbs fitting in a flat-rate box - it would depend on the size of the bottle.

I want 1lb too. I have a shipper in the US.

As I mentioned I will start a new thread when I get a definitive answer for price. It is looking like it will be in the $27 lb range. I do not charge packaging but do charge shipping. This is an expensive fo to have made and just keeps getting higher

I'm interested in a pound....
