Lightning Round Reviews #18!

Hi friends! How is your weekend going?
We've started decorating for Christmas!
BEFORE you say it's too early, Thanksgiving would have been this Thursday, so really, it's not that early since Thanksgiving is late this year.
PSH, excuses excuses.

Here are some lightning round reviews for y'all! Enjoy! :)

Heavenleigh Apothecary's Serendipity, Cotton Candy & Vanilla Bean Noel
Cold Rating: 6/10
Lit Rating: 7/10
Throw Rating: 6.5/10
Overall Rating: 6.5/10; this was a great blend! I asked the owner of this company to mix these scents, and it was nice, but it was a bit skunky as some clamshells can get. This vendor has some known issues as far as TAT and customer service, so I don't think I'd repurchase.

Jack Be Nimble Candle Creations Lime Basil
Cold Rating: 4/10
Lit Rating: 4/10
Throw Rating: 6/10
Overall Rating: 4/10; this was just not the scent for me. Something about the citrusness of the lime and the freshness of the basil was just weird and 'dirt'-y smelling. I dumped this after an hour. Not a repurchase.

Rosegirls Key Lime Birthday Cake
Cold Rating: 8/10
Lit Rating: 8.5/10
Throw Rating: 8.5/10
Overall Rating: 8.5/10; this scent is completely out of my wheelhouse and yet it's incredible! The mix of key lime and birthday cake is genius. This had an incredible throw, and smelled like fresh baked goods. I LOVED it, and it lasted 7 hours. Definite repurchase!

Rosegirls Sweet Lemon Confection, Pink Sugar, and Pink Lady
Cold Rating: 7.5/10
Lit Rating: 7.5/10
Throw Rating: 7/10
Overall Rating: 7.5/10; a very great combination of pink sugars, and Rosegirls' fabulous sweet lemon confection scent. So good. Definite repurchase, and this lasted 6 hours.

Rosegirls Flip Flops and Bikinis
Cold Rating: 7/10
Lit Rating: 6.5/10
Throw Rating: 6.5/10
Overall Rating: 6.5/10; this is a suntanny kind of scent with hints of coconut and possibly pink sands? It was alright, but not my favorite scent from Rosegirls. It was decent as far as throw. I might repurchase this, it lasted 4 hours.

Rosegirls Save the Drama for Your Mama
Cold Rating: 8/10
Lit Rating: 8.5/10
Throw Rating: 8.5/10
Overall Rating: 8.5/10; I love this one! It's mix of pink sugar and either cookies or monster cookie fluff puffs. It's incredible! The throw was insane, and the scent in general is fab. I can't wait to get more of this, definite repurchase, it lasted 7 hours!

Rosegirls Homespun Cotton Candy
Cold Rating: 6/10
Lit Rating: 6/10
Throw Rating: 6/10
Overall Rating: 6/10; a generic type of cotton candy scent, it was decent as far as general scent and throw, but I would have liked a bit more than just sweetness. Alright, maybe a repurchase, not sure. Lasted 4 hours.

Candles from the Keeping Room's Granny's Pie Crust
Cold Rating: 6/10
Lit Rating: 6/10
Throw Rating: 6/10
Overall Rating: 6/10; remember how I said I don't like pie crust? Well, granny's pie crust seems to be an exception. It's more sweet and less buttery, well, at least from CFTKR. This is alright, but nothing I need to run out a repurchase. Decent throw, lasted about 4 hours before I got tired of it.

Candles from the Keeping Room's Satsuma and Strawberry
Cold Rating: 7/10
Lit Rating: 8/10
Throw Rating: 8/10
Overall Rating: 8/10; this was the summer craze this year, as far as vendors trying to find and carry this scent. Everyone loves it. Well, Carol's is my favorite so far. The strawberry is sweet, the satsuma is sweet with huge bursts of citrus flavor, and they mix extremely well together. I really enjoy this! I have an 8 ounce bag and would repurchase it again. Lasted about 5 hours in the bedroom.

Ava's Country Cupboard's Orange Clove & Cinnamon
Cold Rating: 6.5/10
Lit Rating: 6.5/10
Throw Rating: 6/10
Overall Rating: 6.5/10; this sucker was a huuuge mitten shape from last year around this time, and yet it's scent was still there and pretty strong! I melted this in the kitchen and could smell wisps of it throughout the house. Really nice. Lasted over a day in the warmer!

Ava's Country Cupboard's Cinnamon Cake
Cold Rating: 5/10
Lit Rating: 4/10
Throw Rating: 4/10
Overall Rating: 4/10; not impressed by this. This one little scallop tart was pretty weak, and I should have known to mix it with something stronger. It only lasted about 2 hours that we could smell. I got this for free, but I doubt I'd repurchase it.

Ava's Country Cupboard's Harvest Spice
Cold Rating: 7/10
Lit Rating: 7/10
Throw Rating: 7/10
Overall Rating: 7/10; do you see this little bread loaf? IT LASTED 2 FREAKIN' DAYS. No lie! It had a medium-high scent throw, and I liked it a lot! It was basically just a lot of spices, nothing much else, but we loved it. I'd definitely buy this again!

K's Kreations Pumpkin Butta Fudge
Cold Rating: 6/10
Lit Rating: 7.5/10
Throw Rating: 7/10
Overall Rating: 7.5/10; surprisingly great! I am 50/50 with butter fudge scents, but that scent mixed with pumpkin was a welcomed treat! I might purchase this as it was a sample, but overall, I was impressed. Nice throw, good warm sniff smell. Creamy and pumpkiny!

K's Kreations Aromatic Chai Tea
Cold Rating: 5/10
Lit Rating: 4/10
Throw Rating: 3/10
Overall Rating: 4/10; sad that this basically didn't throw. I love tea scents, as well as chai scents, and this had much promise, but I was bummed by its performance. I got little tea, and basically just a "dirt"-y type of chai scent, nothing like I've come to know. Oh well. Not a repurchase, lasted 2 hours.

K's Kreations' Alex's Rainbow
Cold Rating: 10/10
Lit Rating: 10/10
Throw Rating: 9.5/10
Overall Rating: 10/10; PERFECTION. This scent is crazy! It's like a sweet candy with touches of citrus and just....rainbows and sunshine. SO GOOD. Definite repurchase, love this, lasts forever!
