Cold Rating: 6/10
Lit Rating: 6/10
Throw Rating: 7/10
Overall Rating: 6/10; sort of perfumey, not at all like Leaves (dupe), but much more earthy and pungent. Not my favorite scent, but it's not terrible. Decent throw, lasted 5.5 hours in the bathroom! Not a repurchase, though.
Sugar & Spice Gourmet Soy's Bonfire Bliss
Cold Rating: 7/10
Lit Rating: 8.5/10
Throw Rating: 8.5/10
Overall Rating: 8.5/10; what a complex scent description! I hink it shows because there are a lot of things going on here. There's the gooey marshmallow, sweet and creamy, but then another sweetness, perhaps a sugar note, plus the fire scent and then a very woodsy non-fire type of scent, I'm assuming it's the amber/sandalwood/charred woods of pine and cedar. Very intriguing indeed. Lasted 7 hours in the bedroom, Repurchase!
Frosted Pumpkin Cupcakes~ *Sugar & Spice Exclusive Blend!*Blend of Frosted Pumpkin, Birthday cake and Buttercream Frosting....yummy! |
Cold Rating: 6/10
Lit Rating: 8.5/10
Throw Rating: 8/10
Overall Rating: 7.5/10; yummy is the right word here. Sweet, cakey, buttercreamy, very delectable. I wanted to lick the air. Also had a strange more than cakey bread note, though, but maybe it was just me. Lasted 6 hours in the bathroom! Perhaps a repurchase.
Sugar & Spice Gourmet Soy's Mac Apple Leaves Marshmallow Noel
Cold Rating: 9/10
Lit Rating: 9/10
Throw Rating: 10/10
Overall Rating: 9/10; insane how strong her blends are! MMMMM! The mac apple is bright and a little bit overwhelming in a good way, the leaves adds some much needed earthiness and crispiness, and the marshmallow noel sweetens the whole deal. INCREDIBLE! Many times repurchase!!! Lasted all freaking day in the bedroom, about 16 hours. Could smell this outside the house.
Sugar & Spice Gourmet Soy's Mulled Cider/Leaves
Cold Rating: 8/10
Lit Rating: 9/10
Throw Rating: 8.5/10
Overall Rating: 8.5/10; what can I say that hasn't already been said about S&S...Shanna takes the time to blend her wax to its utmost potency. This is another wonderful blend, but it's missing that marshmallow sweetness and instead. replaced it with more apple and tons of spice. Good! Lasted all day, again, in the bedroom, about 16 hours. I am in love with S&S. REPURCHASE!
Bubbling Butter Brew - My interpretation of Harry Potter's Butter Beer. Sweet clotted cream, salted caramel, rich butterscotch, and a touch of bubbling cream soda. |
Cold Rating: 6/10
Lit Rating: 7/10
Throw Rating: 6.5/10
Overall Rating: 6.5/10; HARRY POTTER!!!!!!! I am much more accepting of all scents, now, and this wasn't half bad. Not fully sweet, not fully buttery, more creamy and butterscotch-like than anything. Really nice if you need something different for a change. Lasted 3 hours in the bathroom. Not a repurchase for me.
Old Time Holiday Shoppe - bubbling cranberry fizz layered with lemon curd. |
Cold Rating: 6.5/10
Lit Rating: 6/10
Throw Rating: 6/10
Overall Rating: 6/10; very fizzy and sweet, but not TBG's typical lemon curd to me. Much sweeter. Fizziness is nice, if you like that sort of thing. Lasted 4-5 hours in the bathroom and I think I melted all 6 cubes at once on this one (which I don't recommend. The less, the better.) and though I lover her decorations and touches on top, I am over the sugar crystals on her wax. They are such a royal pain in the ass to remove from pouring while hot. Not a repurchase,
Sugar Candy Wreath - sugar, cotton candy, eucalyptus, evergreen, plums, cherries, oranges and strawberries |
Cold Rating: 7/10
Lit Rating: 7/10
Throw Rating: 6/10
Overall Rating: 7/10; mainly a very sweet fruity smell with wisps of eucalyptus/evergreen notes. Nice, but needed to be stronger. Pretty tree-y sometimes. Lasted 4 hours two separate times in the bathroom. Possible repurchase.

Cold Rating: 8/10
Lit Rating: 5/10
Throw Rating: 6.5/10
Overall Rating: 6.5/10; a free sample from my order that lasted 5 hours in the bathroom. This smelled like spicy caramel cake on cold sniff, but while warming, something came out in this melt that I didn't like at all. Overly buttery to me. Not one I'd purchase for me.
Grandpa's Mug - Rum, maple, warm butter, vanilla, caramelized sugar |
Cold Rating: 8/10
Lit Rating: 6/10
Throw Rating: 8/10
Overall Rating: 7/10; not my typical favorite kind of scent, but I was feeling adventurous. Wonderful on cold sniff, more buttery on warm sniff. Caramel has a tendency to go south fast, and while this isn't my favorite scent, it was okay. Lasted 5ish hours. Glitter still all over my warmer a month later. :P

Cold Rating: 6/10
Lit Rating: 7/10
Throw Rating: 6.5/10
Overall Rating: 6.5/10; a nice sweet cinnamon scent. Lasted 5-6 hours in the bathroom. Medium throw. Nothing special, but still nice. Cute name!
Pink Sugar + Rosemary Mint |
Cold Rating: 10/10
Lit Rating: 10/10
Throw Rating: 10/10
Overall Rating: 10/10; amazing scent! Perfect blend of pink sugar and herbal rosemary mint! Unique blend in her rosemary mint, sort of medicinal, sort of sweet. Very pretty. Love melting this. Wonderful chunklets! Throw improved with this wax blend. So good. Potential to stain warmer with her other pink blends!
Cold Rating: 8/10
Lit Rating: 7.5/10
Throw Rating: 6.5/10
Overall Rating: 7/10; a perfect blend of sweet yet tart cranberry and oranges, plus a hefty dose of cinnamon spice. So nice. Cute imprints in the wax.
A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving - Sweet Potato Pie, Toasted Marshmallow, Sugar Cookies and Caramel Cupcakes. Created by Caroline M. |
Cold Rating: 7/10
Lit Rating: 4/10
Throw Rating: 6.5/10
Overall Rating: 6/10; this smelled incredible for the first 30 minutes, but when it got into the first hour mark, it started to smell disgusting to my nose. Most people would like this because it's a bakery/rich/caramelly scent, but to me, it smelled like gross curdled milk plus caramel sweetness. Yikes. Sorry, Kirby, this wasn't for me! Good medium throw, though, but something in there was just....eesh!
Vintage Chic Scents' Elm Street
Cold Rating: 5/10
Lit Rating: 6/10
Throw Rating: 6/10
Overall Rating: 6/10; this is a special exclusive blend between VCS and Tiffany Candles. It smells mostly bakery to me with maybe a little touch of spice. It was okay, but nothing special to me. Bakery fans will like this one.
The Great Pumpkin - Pumpkin Layer Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting. (Created by Gina.) |
Cold Rating: 7/10
Lit Rating: 7/10
Throw Rating: 7.5/10
Overall Rating: 7/10; you can really smell the cream cheese in this one! Yum! The pumpkin is there, but it's sweet and not super spicy to my nose. I would have liked a bit more spice to this. Lasted 6 hours in the bathroom 2 times, each half of the leaf. I would repurchase this.
HAPPY NEW YEAR (COMING SOON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
