Replacing Fragrances

[Deda]

I like the CLV from NG.

I splashed little on my bathrobe (no I wasn't soaping in a robe, I was transferring to glass bottles) and the smell is addictive. It soaps nice, too. No A or D.

Thank you Genny, I haven't order from NG before but I'll give the twilight in the woods a try.

Natures Garden has Twilight Woods, Love Spell, CLV.

NG's CLV doesn't smell as good as WSP
I really like Love Spell, but, never soap it from WSP.
Twilight Woods is yummy! I've never smelled BBW, so I can't compare though.

my only scent that i buy from there and will continue to, i love it but i will just buy it in larger amounts is the new one April Showers. It is one that no matter who smells it, they think it is really good. i was also buying all my packaging from them and now i don't know where i should go. my favorite part of shopping with them was the $15 minimum order.

I have got 2 replacements that rock!

Juniper Breeze & Drakkar

Bittercreek has dead on Drakkar & Juniper Breeze fos. The JB smelles exactly like the one at WSP. I have not tried the Drakkar at WSP but Bittercreeks is a dead on for the real deal!

WSP charges $39.35 & $31.25.
BCN charges $18.95 & $12.95.

Does anyone know of a good Garden Mint.
Wellington has one, but it's not the same. WSP's is a blend of spearmint, lettuce & rain.

Also, does anyone have a good supplier for lotion bar tubes?
I know Elements has some good ones, but just checking to see where else I may be missing.

Thanks

I like it from NG a lot better than WSP. So they lose that battle anyway!

I'm going to order some from BB. I've never placed an order with BrambleBerry before, I was *trying* to stay on the East Coast.

Any one want to offer a few recommendations?

Got to agree with Amy on BB's OMH. Oh, my. That one's good. Also have tried the Wake Up Rosemary and agree about the mint, but I like it anyway. I think my favorite from BB is Tropical Vacation, but that's because it comes through in CP for me smelling an awful lot like SweeTarts, which are my favorite. Hmm....let's see. I also like their Applejack Peel, but it doesn't seem much different than the others I've tried. Baby Rose is a nice light rose scent if you like that kind of thing. Oh, and Buttercream and Snickerdoodle. Mmm. Love that one, too.

Thank you Genny, I haven't order from NG before but I'll give the twilight in the woods a try.

Twilight in the Woods from NG is not a Twilight Woods dupe. I made that mistake already. I've been using Twilight Woods from Peak and really like it. I just got a bottle of Twilight Woods from Sweetcakes and will be sampling it tonight. OOB to me it isn't as good as Peak, nice but not the same but both of them smell better than the original. I didn't even know WSP had a twilight dupe, I avoid purchasing from them because they don't offer 1oz or samples and I don't want to pay 6 bucks to try out an FO.

I used to order a lot from WSP but now Iam ordering from Peak, Brambleberry, and Lonestar (local for me).

I like NG's service their oilss are hit and miss for me (but so is Lonestar). Thank goodness for sample sizes

Peak's Twilight Woods is just awesome
(only oils I did not like from Peak are Mary Jane and Spiced Pear)

Coconut Lime Verbena - both Peak and Lonestar's are great
BB's OMH - very strong (did not like it at first now I am digging it)
BB's Wake Up Rosemary - Very nice!!!
Blackberry Amber - Lonestar

HTH

"Twilight in the Woods from NG is not a Twilight Woods dupe."

Thanks for letting me know. Someone that orders from them said it was similar. I guess not

NG's scent description.
Top Notes: Mandarin Balm, Tangelo, Eucalyptus
Middle Notes: Jungle Moss, Patchouli Leaf, Sandal Tree
Base Notes: Red Wood Forest, Amber Glow, Musk
I didn't notice until I got it that the description doesn't say that it is a type even though they put it in the designer FO section.

Peak's scent description.
The scent of ripe forest berries and soft sensual musk, with middle notes of sweet mimosa flowers and apricots, along with subtle hints of oak and juniper.
Yum Yum

Thanks for the help with the CLV.

Does anyone know where to get a soapsicle mold like they sell at WSP? It's been on my wishlist for a while, just haven't gotten around to getting one. I want to make some soapsicles for my students at the end of the year.

 

[AmyW]

I'll try some of the other twilight woods dupes but that may be the one thing I keep getting at WSP. I love it that much Everything else, meh.

 

[jenn624]

I 3rd (or 4th?) the Twilight Woods from Peaks, it is wonderful. Candle Science has a coconut lime that is body safe, its awesome.

Edited to add:

Oakmoss & Sandalwood? I haven't been able to find it anywhere else....
Honey Shea? Scent Works has it, but I don't need 5lb

kelleyaynn,

Those soapsicle molds are not specifically made for soap. You can find them at places like bed, bath & beyond or other 'home/kitchen' shops. They are truly for making popsicles.

Yeah, I've looked, but WSP has the only one that looks like the popsicles I remember eating as a kid. Sigh.

Check Go Planet Earth, Camden Grey, Flexible Molds, Mold Market.

Also, like someone else said, you can usually use just ones found at the dollar store. They won't come out as easy, since WSP's are silicone, but they'll still come out :wink:
