Hi I am just curious if anyone has purchased FO's from this co. If you did what did you think of the quality? I have never heard of them.

TIA

Great prices, hit & miss on the quality. I haven't bought tons from them but it's been running about 50/50 on good vs bad. Most recently, got Columbian coffee fo because the description said it smelled like actual coffee (duh! That's what I was looking for). BUT it smelled exactly like a hershey bar, in the bottle & in any product I used it in. Now I luvs me some chocolate, but I was terribly disappointed in not getting what they described.

Another thing to keep in mind with wellington is that they have a low-order fee. I think it's around $10 they charged me for not ordering $100 worth. I didn't like that.

Check out the scent forum for more reviews to give you a better idea of what works. Hope that helps ya!
 
i've ordered from them before. i don't use fo's ,but you get 5 samples when you spend 100 dollars. and they smelled pretty good. i'm giving to my friend who makes candles.

i usually order dead sea salt, bottles and some eo's. everything has been good. some nice patch, some great black pepper. and good pine.

they are local for me so it is very conveniant.
 
Very few oils are any good in my opinion. They work in lotions, but in CP I have found them to be so poor that I never used the oils again. Their orange oil has a fuel note to it and their violet smells like tea. I do not make candles so I cannot give you any input in that regard.
 
Thank you all . I wondered about the low prices .It is so true you get what you pay for .I am glad I asked.

Definitely get your money's worth.. :(
It's lame, poor quality.. I ordered a lot and only liked 1 or 2 - and those smelled "cheap" but I kept them anyway.
I sold the rest to someone who didn't mind.

I bought approximately 20 FO from them and so far am pretty pleased. I use them in CP soap. Some accelerate trace and sometimes seize (not necessarily a bad thing--end up with whipped soap) but am finding that the scents I have used stay pretty true with the exception of Sugar Cookie which turns out more like Gingerbread (again not necessarily a bad thing)!
