!I have bought Qhemet randomly through the years. I liked the Cocoa Tree Detangling Ghee and the Moringa Tree one. But never repurchased because I struggled to get Cocoa Tree out of the bottle and ain't nobody got time for that, and I hated the smell of the Moringa Tree. I am very sensitive to smells.
I didn't like the Amla & Olive Cream or the Honey & Olive something or the other. Too heavy and greasy for me. I used the Burdock Root one once and was not impressed, but loved it on my body.
Nothing has wowed me enough for me to go through the trouble of repurchasing. If I still lived in the DC area and could get it on the ground, I might have been tempted to.

I remember reading on a blog someone wrote PBN Murumuru Moisture Milk worked as well Cocoa Tree for her.

She put the Cocoa tree back in a jar making it easy to use and it detangles my hair oh so nicely.
The moringa tree's scent has been changed. It actually smells like the jamaican mango and lime castor oil too me. That may just be me. I also find it very softening.
It will be nice to find alternatives though. It seems like many of you have
.*Light bulb moment* Thank you for this! Now I can get rid of these 3 jars that are collecting dust.

I have looked around in my stash and I have reviewed my notes and it turns out I already have two dupes for at least two of Qhemet's items...
Bask Palm Tapioca is a good dupe (for me) for the Amla and Olive Heavy Cream. It is a heavy sealer that is water based and it is also an excellent styler that offers tons of shine.
The Oyin Hair Dew - has already replaced the Burdock Root Butter Cream for me in terms of performance. It is lighter yet more effective than the cream.
So at this point I will be referring back to my list of suggestions to find replacements for the Cocoa Tree Detangling Ghee ( that will be hard) and the Aethiopika Hydrate and Twist Butter.

BRBC was the first product that got my hair to that soft like butter I used to hear about. It is a favorite; it used to be a staple. My hair loves protein, so I moved on to a more balanced daily moisturizer.
I really love, and still use the gel.
I was not a big fan if the strong cocoa scent of the detangling ghee, although it performed well. But silk dreams wheat germ butter gets my hair just as soft, is easier to apply, smells better and has hydrolyzed wheat protein. It's a winner in my book.
The moringa ghee did nothing for me as a leave or or DC. Besides, not a fan of the smell. Got rid of it quick. Again SD Shea what, RCA and Darcy's deep conditioning mask are my boo thang when it comes to moisturizing DCs.
AOHC, all I can say it s heavy. I only had to have it cause I am a pj. It has slow vera, and my hair hates that. So I barely used it before getting rid of it. Did not get any issues with it, but to be on the safe dude I stopped using it.
Olive oil and honey balm ( not sure I got the name right). Couldn't find a legitimate place for this in my regimen. Got rid of it, never missed it.
Amla nourishing pomade. Loved this one. It gavey twists s nice hold with great shine. Unfortunately the heavy wax just broke my hair off. I had to say goodby from my last jar. It did the same thing to my daughter s hair. We had little broken piece all over. I replaced that with SD mocha bling butter. It's a butter mix with the feel of a pomade.
Twisting butter: scent is a big too strong for me. It is a decent product, but I prefer my oyin whipped Shea butter in the almond scent.
The only thing i still use is the brbc, especially on times I feel like I may overdo it on the protein. Always brings the moisture right back in.
Since you are protein sensitives my replacements/alternatives wouldn't work for you. My main issue with the line is that, it does not contain enough protein for me. Good luck with your new list DoDo

No, your exact recommendations may not work (yet - I am using heat now so I may need to incorporate more protein), however the line you suggested is one that I have been curious about. I may just look into Silk Dreams, I was already planning to look back into Darcy's Botanicals.
