SAVE ON SCENTS FRAGRANCE OIL CO-OP

[Imblebee]

Hi Everyone,

I have been browsing SOS for the past few weeks and I would like to put together an order. Does anyone else have an interest in making this a co-op? I would be looking to buy a pound or more of each fragrance and I would be willing to split the bottles up into 8oz...and if there is enough interest 4oz.

I live very close to SOS and I would be picking the order up from them to save on shipping. The only shipping charges you'd incur are those needed to send the FO's to you. I would ship usps ground.

I am interested in the following:

Angel (type): Thierry Mugler $19.95/lb
Meditation Haikku: Crisp green tea infused with osmanthus and deepened with myrrh. $19.95/lb
Oatmeal Milk & Honey (v.2004) : Oil $17.95/lb
Jose Lime Margarita [Type*] : Oil $25.95/lb
London Lemon Curd : Oil $15.95/lb

***Please let me know if you are interested in ordering different scents. I am open to ordering whatever as long as there is a pound of it (split up or not)***

Have you smelled the angel? Is it a dead on dupe? If so I would love some.

I also need some christmas by the fire from them. It a woods, cinnamon scent.

I have not smelled this Angel yet but I have heard good things about it. I have ordered from two other suppliers and neither of their versions were close. I have the original perfume to compare to so I wanted to order a lb. of it and split it up. I paid way more for the other suppliers versions, and they stunk, literally. Seriously, one smelled like Skin so Soft from avon.

eta: wow, lost my brain. Seriously, I wrote payed?! Eesh, send me back to Kindergarten. :wink:

Hijack: I was getting muy Angel from bitercreek but they dropped it due to price increase. Have you tried theirs?

 

[Imblebee]

Naw, hadn't gotten the chance. Is it dropped now? How much do you have in your stash? I am thinking about picking up some sniffles next week. I could let you know then?!

 

[Tabitha]

It's not on their website anymore. I have maybe 1/2oz left. Not enought to do anything w/. I do have it though incase one of my angel regulars has a special request for 2-3 items.

 

[Deda]

I justordered 16 oz of SOS Angel. I love the stuff from Sweet Cakes but it's so spendy, I really hope I love the SOS Soaped.

I'll let you know next week.

 

[Imblebee]

Ooo, Deda! I want to hear how it goes. When are you expecting your shipment?!

 

[KSL]

Man! I so wish it was cheaper to ship to Canada.
There are sooo many to choose from! How did you possibly narrow it down?! LOL

 

[Imblebee]

well aren't those flat rate boxes reasonable? I bet I could pack a couple in there. Most of the flashpoints I have seen on the site can be shipped via air.

It might be possible....


Ohhhh Deda! How did the Angel go?!?! :wink:

 

[Tabitha]

Did you get to sniff the angel? Either of you? Is it a good dupe?

 

[Deda]

I got the angel - OOB it smells good, a little light.

I will soap it this weekend and let you all know!

US flat rate boxes are what, $5? $7? I can't remember..

 

[Imblebee]

Bah, I wish.

Small is $4.95 US - $10.95 CAN
Med is $10.35 US - $25.95 CAN

anyone else remember when stamps were $.25?

Hey Deda! Have you gotten the chance to soap that lovely angel?

 

[KSL]

postage has risen quite alot over the years!
How big is the med flat rate box?

I know that ebay has a flat rate box for canadians, its not that big (shoebox size maybe?) and its like $18. I don't know how that is a deal...lol

 

[kittywings]

I'm curious how the soaping went, but I also wanted to let you know that I've ordered from them a few times and even walked around Brooklyn in heels (getting some WICKED blisters!) last year trying to find it since I was in town and HATE paying for shipping. I really love their Kate Spade dupe, their Jo Malone orange blossom is nice too, though not exactly the same. Gardenia is "eh" from what I remember, the same with honeysuckle... of course when I say "from what I remember" I mean that I'm too lazy to go upstairs and check... (sigh), maybe later.

I also agree that they are very nice!
