Nette's Thoughts: March 2018

YouTube;

I have started putting wax in all my warmers! I generally change out all the upstairs one every other day and the downstairs one daily. It’s still a little hard for me to keep track of what’s melting BUT this is a challenge for me so I’m all over it.

There are several warmers in the house, all of different types.

Candles;

I generally only burn candles in my living room and office, but I seem to go through them!

Kushner Kreations;

Scent; Woodland Berry

Scent Description; Crisp pine needles, rich fir balsam, sweet berries, warm spices and patchouli are surrounded by vanilla musk

Thoughts; This was a very nice musky/berry scent. The candle burned perfectly and it was super strong

Scent; Grape Slushie Gummy Bears

Scent Description; Indulge yourself with this effervescent aroma of Kyoho grapes intermingled with fresh peaches, pineapple, raspberries, and strawberries on a dry down of vanilla and Just open up a bag and take a deep breath! Will take you back to your childhood.

Thoughts; This wasn't as strong as I would have liked, it was good though

Wicked Wax of the East;

Scent; Pink Sugar

Scent Description; A fruity blend of cotton candy, lemon drops, caramel and raspberry jam on a dry down of musks

Thoughts; This was super strong. Granted it was poured in October, but it threw like crazy and was so good!

Creative Enchantment

Scent; Sweet Vanilla Honey

Scent Description; Sugar sweet vanilla with a touch of rich wildflower Honey. (this scent contains Sweet vanilla sugar)

Thoughts; This is one of my favorite scents! This candle seemed to burn hotter than her candles normally do so I had placed it in the kitchen. It's amazing, I love this

Rite Aid Home

Scent; Vanilla Scone

Scent Description; None that I could find

Thoughts; This was a decent vanilla. It was more vanilla than a bakery vanilla and although strong the scent didn't carry

Gracie Jo's Candles

Scent; Bakery Shope

Scent Description; Our special blend of sugar cookies and vanilla buttercream

Thoughts; This was a cute little 4 ounce candle, I burned it in my office and it smelled amazing. It was very cookie scented, but so very good.

Melting;

Wax House Melts;

Scent; Boo!

Inspired by Orange is the New Black Sample

Scent Description; Rainbow Sherbet Sweet Sugar Velvet Cake

Thoughts; This was a really good scent blend. It wasn't very strong but the cake and sugar blended toether with the sherbet to make it a fruity cake scent

Scent; Big Red

Inspired by Orange is the New Black Sample

Scent Description; Cherry Bomb Red Lipstick VBN

Thoughts; This scent is right up my alley. I love this blend. This tart however was not very strong. I am not sure why as others I've had have preformed great. I tried this is several warmers and truly didn't get anything.

Scent; One Balloon Not Enough???

Inspired by Pennywise

Scent Description; White Tea Dreamsickle & Marshmallow Bomb

Thoughts; This wasn't real strong. The Dreamsickle seemed dominant but the other scents blended in really nice

Scent; Daya

Thoughts; This was pretty good, it wasn't very strong and didn't seem to last long, but it had a slight fruity smell to it

Scent; Alex

Inspired by OITBN

Thoughts; This did smell like a sweet tea. It was pretty good and preformed very well althought this scent didn't seem to be long lasting

Scent; Cherry Blue Raspberry Slush Whipped Cream

Scent Description; Cherry Slushie, Blue Raspberry Slushie and Whipped Cream

Thoughts; This was a loaf that I had purchased some time ago (dated 5/2/17) and it took me forever to get through it, it was so good and amazing. This was a strong long lasting scent

MK's Scented Treats

Scent; Blue Raspberry Slushie

Scent Description; Ripened Raspberries, sugary cotton candy and the effervenscence of crushed ice

Thoughts; This seemed to preform the best in a T-Light Warmer, the throw on it was amazing. In my Glade warmers the throw was there but lighter and my scentsy warmers were too warm and the scent fizzled out pretty quick. The wax is good you just have to watch what warmer you use.

Scent; Poseidon

Scent Description; A sexy, fresh, aquatic aroma with bergamot, neroli and tangerine. Flowing into mid notes of rosemary, jasmine, and persimmon; all sitting on a woodsy base note of essential oil of patchouli.

Thoughts; This wasn't too strong, but it was very nice. It wasn't too much of a floral scent, more woodsy which I liked

Rose Girls

Scent; Summer Snow Cone Margaritas

Scent Description; Blend of Blue Raspberry Slushie, Margarita, Lemonade, Paradise and Mango Sorbet

Thoughts; This is a scent I didn't think I would like, but it wasn't what I thought it would be. It was a sweet scent with a touch of sugar. The Lemonade was really the tartness that brought everything together.

Fire It Up Candles;

Scent; T Berry

Scent Description; Blue Raspberry Slushie mixed with Grape

Thoughts; I had this scent shot in one of my melting boxes, I assumed it was Triple Berry but after asking in the group I learned that Judi's husband Terry came up with this scent. It's seriously amazing and super strong. I will be needed much more of this in the future

Scent; Strabwerry Vanilla Blueberry

Scent Description; Just as it sounds

Thoughts; The Straweberry and Blueberry blended very nice together. There wasn't much of a vanilla scent with it. It was super strong and long lasting.

Scent; Warm Vanilla Sugar

Scent Description; a warm vanilla aroma with a musky back note.

Thoughts; This wasn't as strong as most of the scents are from Fire it Up. It was a very nice vanilla!

Scent; Strawberry Preserves

Scent Description; The wonderful aroma of sweet ripened strawberries with notes of raw sugar cane.

Thoughts; This was a really good strabwerry, it didn't smell fake or “green” like some do. It was strong but not over pouring. This was great!

Thoughts; This was strong and soooo good!!!

Scent Description; A rich combination of olibanum, myrrh, patchouli, herbaceous woodsy pine, sheer musk, vanilla, and floral lilac notes.

Thoughts; This was from the advent box, it was a scent shot and I just couldn't seem to get it out of the container, my husband changed out all my warmers for me one day when I was gone and he happen to put this in. It was very nice, it wasn't too strong and it had a very pleasant scent. I have never had that with this scent

Scent; Candy Corn

Scent Description; A warm vanilla candy with top notes of butter with a slight down of almond.

Scent; Strawberry Shortcake

Scent Description; The aroma of buttery vanilla cake with notes of freshly sliced strawberries, with base notes of rich vanilla cream

Thoughts; I always worry about strawberry scents because they tend to sometimes be a “green” type and I don't like the smell of the leaves, I want juicy strawberries and this one did exactly what I like, it was super rich and creamy

Little Pony Wax Creations

Scent; Cherry Marshmallow Bomb

Scent Description; A blend of cherries and marshmallow bomb

Thoughts; This had a chemical smell to me on cold so I was worried that I would smell that when it was warm, I didn't and this smell although not strong was a great scent

Scent Description; Delicately sweet white Mulberry on a soft background of cedar and fir!
