Cold Rating:
5/10
Lit Rating:

Throw Rating:
5/10
Overall Rating:
5/10; decent dupe, a bit lighter than I would have liked, but otherwise, nice and tropical. Lasted 3 hours with a low-medium throw throughout.
Front Porch's Bear Claws
Cold Rating:
6/10
Lit Rating:
7.5/10
Throw Rating:
7/10
Overall Rating:
7/10; a nice cinnamon bakery scent that manages to not have that weird FP undertone I hate so much. This is nice and I would repurchase it. Lasted for 6 hours!
Front Porch's Celtic Moonspice Noel
Cold Rating:
8/10
Lit Rating:
8.5/10
Throw Rating:
8/10
Overall Rating:
8/10; celtic moonspice is one of my all time favorite scents, and when it's added with vanilla bean noel, it's just as fabulous. Wonderful scent, great throw, would repurchase always, lasted 7 hours.
Lasting Scent Candles Blackberry Sage Tea
Cold Rating: 7
/10
Lit Rating:
5/10
Throw Rating:
7.5/10
Overall Rating:
6.5/10; the throw was pretty good, and the cold sniff scent was strong, but the sage in this was not my favorite. I love LSC's tea scent, but the floral blackberry and sage notes didn't mesh together. Lasted 2 hours but would have lasted longer if I hadn't gotten tired of it. PS: LOOK AT THOSE OILS, OMG.

Lit Rating:

6/10; better on cold throw, surprisingly. A decent serendipity, but nothing to write home about, I suppose. Lasted 3 hours before I needed a change. PS: this shop is now closed.

Lit Rating:

6/10
Lit Rating:
5.5/10
Throw Rating:
5.5/10
Overall Rating:
5.5/10; a nice pink peppermint, just not super strong. This is the best thing I have melted from this company thus far, but it's still not that high above medium.

Lit Rating:
8/10
Throw Rating:
8/10
Overall Rating:
8/10; amaaaaazing. I love this scent. Pink Chiffon is a perfume dupe, and when it's mixed with pink sugar, I just loved it. Strong throw in the bedroom. Wonderful, lasted 5.5 hours, definite repurch.

The Scented Princess' Green Apple Explosion Serendipity
Cold Rating:
7/10
Lit Rating:
7.5/10
Throw Rating:
6.5/10
Overall Rating:
7/10; awesome, unexpected blend! Green apple and coconut/cherry seem to go together well in this blend. Plus, Dawn's serendipity isn't too in-your-face as others can be. Lasted 6 hours, would and have repurchased.
The Scented Princess' Serendipity Cotton Candy Pink Sugar
Cold Rating:
8/10
Lit Rating:
8.5/10
Throw Rating:
7.5/10
Overall Rating:
8/10; I made this blend and it's fan-freakin-tastic! So, so good. Great throw, even better smell. Lasted 7+ hours both times, I would definitely buy this in scoopable.
The Scented Princess' Granny's Pie Crust
Cold Rating:
6.5/10
Lit Rating:
6.5/10
Throw Rating:
6/10
Overall Rating:
6.5/10; I think I've mentioned before that I am not a fan of crusty scents, like lemon meringue pie, key lime pie, etc. Granny's pie crust is the only form of crust I enjoy, and this was nice. Vanilla-y, luscious, not overly buttery. Nice! Lasted 4 hours, would repurchase.
I've got a ton more empties I am trying to put together in a post, so look out for that, as well as a destash soon! :)
ALSO, I am in the process of going through old posts and adding ratings to my labels/tags, so you can look through and find what I loved and what I hated. :)
