I'm almost out of these damn empties. Good golly, they are strewn about the house.

5/10; this smelled great cold, but fizzled fast once being warmer. This was about a year old, so maybe that's why, but it smelled better cold.

6/10; good, but not a repurchase for me. The fruit loops and coconut went well together, and the cookie bread is a fan favorite from K's, but too bready for me.

Overall Rating:
4/10; not very strong, and also not very good. Something in this was not right, and it didn't smell overly like buttermint candies. Maybe I just waited too long to melt it? Either way, not a repurchase.

Overall Rating:
3/10; the cold sniff scent alone was enough to put this at a 3, math be damned. EW. It smelled like a nice vanilla mint scent on cold sniff, perhaps with wintergreen, but when warming, YUCK. It smelled musty and gross. Not a repurch!

6/10; interesting scent, very sweet from the brown sugar note. Decent, but not my favorite. Smelled like butter, too. This was a sample and I'm not sure if I'd buy it on my own.
