Day 189 - Love Potion No. 9


Currently Burning: Love Potion No. 9

Now onto the daily review!



Love Potion No. 9 (5): This scent was originally released only as a massage candle or as a soap. However, in May 2012, Victoria added this to her regular line of fragrances. I immediately picked it up in an 8oz candle without having ever smelled it because I heard rave reviews since it first came out in February 2012. To me, it smells like Best Friends and Bella Swan combined and I love it. The Best Friends note is stronger, but it does have some of the florals/feminine musk that are in Bella. Great fragrance and I'm glad I went straight for the candle!

Day 188 - Sonny and Cher


Currently Burning: Sonny and Cher

Now onto the daily review!



Sonny and Cher (4): This fragrance was created for a couple on YouTube. I get a lot of peppermint, but there's also some sweetness in it as well. I also get the vanilla and green notes. It's a nice minty scent. The throw is pretty strong and I do enjoy it. Not sure if I would like a candle in it, but maybe.

Day 187 - Warm Apple Fritters


Currently Burning: Warm Apple Fritters

Now onto the daily review!


Warm Apple Fritters (3): This is a customer creation of Macintosh Apple and Cinnamon Donuts. On cold, the only thing I get is really strong mac apple with the slightest touch of cinnamon. Warm throw though it's a really good balance of the two. Doesn't really smell true to the name since it's more of a fresh apple than a baked apple, but it's still good none-the-less. The throw is strong too so that's a plus.

Day 186 - Weekly Scent Recap #16


Currently Burning: Tropical Blast


Now onto the daily review!



Tropical Blast (4): This is a combination of pineapple, mango, papaya, coconut, and watermelon. I can definitely get all of the notes. I smell melon the strongest followed by the pineapple/coconut. This is also the bottom layer in the Hawaiian Colada Sweet Treat which I am loving for summer!! Pretty decent throw. Not sure if I would buy this one on its own since I love the sweet treat so much though.

Currently Burning: Sugared Spruce

Now onto the daily review!



Sugared Spruce (5): This one really surprised me for how much I liked it! It smells pretty true to its name: spruce with a bit of sweetness. Perfect for Christmas, but I would definitely burn this year round. Love it!

Day 183 - Six Months Down :D


Currently Burning: Watermelon Cupcake



Well today is July 1st which means that I'm at the halfway point with my blog. I've been going strong for 6 months now! This has been so much fun and I've really gotten a new appreciation for wax along the way. Thanks to all my followers for sticking with me!


Now onto the daily review!



Watermelon Cupcake (5): This is a customer creation of Tiffany-D and Pink Cupcake. I don't really care for either scent on their own, but together they are amazing!!! Candle-worthy for sure! The throw is also pretty strong.
