Welcome back! I hope you had a wonderful holiday, if you celebrate, and that you are all safe and happy! :)
My dear Josh bought me some CFTKR wax for Christmas!!! He made me open it last, he was so funny about it...I'm sure Carol was confused since he and I apparently placed orders like a day apart from one another, LOL.
He also bought me two candles from Bath & Body Works...
...and the 5 new 2013 Spring scents votives from Yankee Candle. It was a very waxy Christmas for me!
Anywho, onto the review!
Apple Pumpkin Puff Pastry is from a company called Rosegirls. One day, I just happened to be at the right place at the right time when their online store opened, and I got my hands on a mixed box of cake chunk melts. I believe it came with 20 chunks of wax for $25?? I don't quite remember, and their website is close right now. Out of the 20, there were only a few that did not "smell" like "me" (well, "us"). I have not tried this company before...
...and let me tell you: if everything smells as good as Apple Pumpkin Puff Pastry, then Rosegirls is amazing.
It took a while for this chunk to get going. It started off timid in scent, but then kept growing and growing...every 5 minutes, there was a new scent involved: first apple, then cinnamon, then pumpkin, then a hint of clove, a tiny hint of puff pastry, then vanilla, more cinnamon apples...it's simple fabulous. Once the initial timidity was over, it also got very, very strong, like, throughout the house strong. I am absolutely writing this scent combination down to repurchase, it's right up our alley!

Rosegirls' Apple Pumpkin Puff Pastry
Cold Rating: 7.5/10; you can definitely smell each of the main ingredients on cold sniff, and a very other players, as well.
Lit Rating: 9/10; fabulous combination of fruit, spice, and a hint of bakery, too!
Throw Rating: 8.5/10; upper level strength, but not the strongest thing I've ever melted.
Overall Rating: 8/10; a winner in my book! I have heard great things about this company, and I am looking forward to melting my other chunk melts as time progresses. Great, strong apple cinnamon type of fragrance. Thoroughly enjoyed this one!
That pumpkin one does sound yummy! I've not tried that vendor before.
ReplyDeleteYou got some nice waxy things for Christmas. I wish my hubby was more internet savvy so he could order wax (or Amazon things!) for me. *sigh* But no, his knowledge of computers and the internet is pretty much limited to pushing the 'on' button and playing Warcraft. lol

You should tell your hubby to learn how to use the computer for more than Warcraft so he can buy you wax goodies!! ;)
DeleteYour hubby is sooo sweet! Great wax gifts!
