I can't believe I am out of my 33 lbs of lye! And to think I had even more before I bought that case... lol
Anyways, i need to order and saw they have more EO's now. Has anyone tried them? Reviews on some seem to be good but I like to buy high quality and use just a little rather than weak and use a lot. kwim?
Any thoughts would be great. I only need Cassia and maybe one or two new ones. Noticed they don't even have wild lavender or roman chamomile which I'm out of again.. so makes me wonder about the others.
TIA!
 
I have tried a few in the last year. They are good. But now they have a lot more and way higher prices.

I keep trying different suppliers for EO's, and, for me, being that aroma is like taste and different for everyone, I keep going back to BrambleBerry.

I have not tried a lot of their new ones from other countries yet, but then, they don't fit my budget, so I cannot play to see if they fit aroma palet. The usuals are decent and at a decent price when they mark down a bit towards the end of the month.
 
I've only purchased a few of their oils so far. Since I buy my lye there I sometimes try a new EO or two and add it to my order. So far they have all been good quality so I feel confident trying others. But I do have a price limit on how much I will spend on them. If an EO is too high and would significantly raise the price of my soap then I won't use it.
 
I'm with Candybee. I buy lye there, and usually add something they have on sale, or a new EO I want to try. So far the EOs I've ordered are all high quality - love their Dalmation sage, for example. Their EO sales used to be up to 50 percent off, but I haven't seen any sale that good lately. When they were deeply discounted I bought a few of the 33 ounce specials - Ylang ylang, Bitter orange, and Argan oil. Really fast shipping, and you can often combine sales, like oils on sale plus a shipping discount.
 
I've found ED's EOs to be very hit or miss and there is no way to know until you have the bottle in front of you... I've stopped buying my EO's from them because of it.
 
I have tried 3 different fragrances from them, Vanilla, Jasmine and Coffee Bean. The Jasmine and Vanilla were purchased at the same time, the coffee bean was almost a year later, so far they are 0 for 3 in my book. I have not been happy with any of them. I have a couple people that I trust to sample questionable fragrances and they have not been happy with them either. BB may be slow but I have not had a FO or EO from them yet that was a fail.
 
I have seen many complaints about the quality of their EOs on various soaping forums. I think there are better choices.
