The website just describes them as more simple in their character, less notes, etc. Do you feel like they don't smell as nice or are of a lower quality? I always order from the "standard" scents, I'm scared to go any cheaper!
 
I've ordered several of the economy scents from them, and have been pretty pleased with them. I don't really notice any decrease in overall scent strength from the higher priced to the lower priced. (I'm not at home, or I'd look & tell you which economy scents I've ordered and been happy with)
 
I've used them too. I don't notice any quality issues. They've always smelled nice for me and held up well. The only one ( and I'm not even sure it's an economy scent) that disappointed slightly was Margarita Lime and that's SOLELY because it's a fader in CP. It smells AWESOME though, and dead on. I just have to use it in other applications is all. I love WSP. I use WSP, Brambleberry and MMS almost exclusively for differen't reasons, but WSP's shipping is insanely fast. I always get it in two days.
 
I am a WSP junkie. I always order from the alpahabetical list so I have never really noticed there was an economy line. Double checking this is what I have purchased from the econo-line.:

Garden Mint- Strong- This a WONDERFUL scent & is makes my best selling scrub. I have carried it for as long as I can remember, 4-5-6 year.

Lilac in Bloom-Strong- I added this to my line last summer & LOVE it! Very fresh & clean, smells like soap should!

Sandalwood Incense-Strong-Great in men's products!

Marachino-Strong-Very fun cherry scent.

Cucumber Mint- Did not like this one, did not suit my nose.

Limeade-Strong but does not last on the skin. This is a new scent for me. I made spring 2009 products w/ this scent, I am using a body mist in this scent & it has faded in 3-4 minutes.

Vanilla Pear- I used this scent for a season or 2 but didn't keep it around, seems like it maay have had an odd odor after it set in a product for a while or something like that, maybe a mutation.

Peony-Did not like this one, too floral for my taste.

So, 4 out of 8 I LOVE! Pretty good odds.
 
Oooh, I forgot about the Peony! I got that one too, and didn't care for it either. Too old lady perfumey to me. Soaped well enough.

I tell ya what though - I just got Pineapple Cilantro from BB and it's awesome. I haven't soaped it, but when it came today I opened the bottle and haven't stopped sniffing it every time I walk by it. Can't wait to put it in my products.

I also got White Tea and Ginger and Marrakesh.....they all smell wonderful. I need about a thousand bucks to throw around...lol. There's SO many I want to try.
 
It is realy hard not letting fragrance exploration eat up all your profits :lol: !
