I'm another peak fan. My fav from them so far is their lemongrass sage. I soaped it last month and hubby and I can't get enough. A great wake up scent!

My 2 biggest sellers are Apple Autumn and Redneck Christmas. I get the Apple Autumn from www.goplanetgreen.com, and the christmas scent from www.starvillecandlesupply.com. I personally have liked everything I've gotten from these 2 companies. I also like tea tree oil. I use it in my Dirty Dawg soap bar.

I love tea tree! I get asked for it all of the time. Someone told me they were told to bath with Tea tree soap because it helps with yeast infections...lol. Not sure if it is true...but I get alot of requests for it.

FLORAL FOs

I think Brambleberry makes great florals. I'm just not a floral girl.

I use Hyacinth Heather. Smells just like Hyacinth flowers. It sticks very well.

Gardenia FO is good. Sticks.

Baby Rose FO is really good and strong but a soft rose, not "heady". Sticks.

I can't think of others right now...

:roll:

I've heard this, and it may be true with an essenial oil, but definitely NOT with a FO. And I'm not sure that Tea Tree EO in soap would be helpful or not.

On another note, I'm glad for this thread. I have never used FO in all my 10 years as a soapmaker. BUT, I know that my in-laws would just love it, so I"m going to make them some for Christmas. I want to do a lot of research before buying, so that I get just the right one.

Yes, we were talking about the EO. Thanks for clarifying in case it wasn't clear to others.

Let us know what you choose for your FO's!
