  1. I loved most everything in set 2. I am a hobbyist who makes wax melts and room/linen sprays for myself, family and friends so I like to purchase fragrance oils that are great blenders so I get more mileage for my dollars. I love that these would be great blenders. My thoughts: Strawberry Rhubarb Jam - Oh my goodness! There was some oil on the envelope and it took me right back to my childhood when I walked in the door and my mom had just made my favorite strawberry rhubarb dessert. It is the PERFECT blend of sweet strawberry and tart rhubarb that I haven't found in any other oil I have purchased. I would love to blend this with pie crust or butter cookie or even a creamy cinnamon vanilla...so many ideas. Down to Earth - This is AMAZING! There are so many scent notes in here but none of them overpower the other. There's a dirty earthiness with a hint of green and a subtle sweetness. It reminds me of fresh picked veggies with the dirt still clinging to them. I feel like I could smell a hint of the sugar beets in this minus the sweetness. I would use this in wax melts all by itself as well as a blender. It's very unique and feels very high end. I love this! Mandarin Myrrh - This smells so good! I smell mostly myrrh with a hint of citrus, but it is the best myrrh scent I have smelled. I think this would be great on its own or blended for a fall or cozy winter scent. Tangerine Ginger - This has an earthiness to it that I love. The ginger is more earthy than spicy with a hint of sweetness. Another great year round blender, but especially for fall. I feel like this could take the average fall scent to the next level. Fresh Cut Stems - This is really nice. It smells like a very upscale fresh cut grass to me. I can smell the green and the floral with just a hint of dirt which I usually don't get from the average fresh cut grass fo. I would use this as a blender with clean cotton or to tone down florals. Sugar Beets - I really like this but l feel like it is similar to Down to Earth and I like Down to Earth better. Purple Carrot & Sage - The scent of this was totally unexpected. I didn't get carrot or sage but it is really nice. It's sweet and earthy. I would chose Down to Earth over this. Strawberry Vine is lovely but I would probably only choose one strawberry fragrance and it would be Strawberry Rhubarb. Sun Ripened Blackberry - I prefer the Black Raspberry Vanilla over this one. I think the BRV has a stronger berry scent. Clementine Coriander - This is a really pretty, clean smelling citrus. It would be a great blender. It smells really nice with Artichoke & Kale, Purple Carrot & Sage, Mandarin & Myrrh and Down to Earth. Artichoke & Kale - This reminds me of Arugula which I already have. I like it, it makes a great blender. Garden Herbs - This smells like when you go to the greenhouse and smell all the fresh garden mints. I love that smell. I'm the one who runs their hands through all the herbs. It would make a nice blender. Rainbow Moss - This is interesting but I'm not really sure what I'm smelling. Blue Hyacinth - Floral. I'm not really a fan of florals so... Santal Amber - I love santal and I love amber but this doesn't really wow me. It needs something to make it standout. Thank you so much for these, I hope this was helpful.
  2. Thank you for the sniffies! My thoughts: Gala Nights - I LOVE this and would love it in a perfume. It smells so sexy without any heavy notes. I would use it in wax melts, room/linen spray and all things body (if I made body products). Neon Flowers is so pretty! It's the perfect balance of floral and fruity. I would use it in everything. It would make the perfect spring/summer scent and be a great blender. Exhilaration would be great in a candle, as well as a room/linen spray. This smells clean and fresh and slightly earthy. Definite spa vibes. I like Mesmerize, but it was a little on the light side for me. I put it in my warmer and it was still light. I think it would make a great blender. I was not a fan of Dusted Sheets. It was really powdery which isn't my thing. However, when I put it next to Mesmerize it was really nice. Perfect Pear is very different from any other pear I have smelled. You can smell the pear with a hint of smoke. It's nice and would make a fun scent to blend, but I probably wouldn't purchase it. Gentle Man. I am not sure how I feel about this. I keep getting anise? I put it on my warmer to see if it would pull out other notes but it wasn't a favorite. I really wanted to smell the tobacco and vanilla notes but I just didn't. Up Close. I think there is something wrong with my nose because I feel like I only got minty vibes which weren't in the notes at all. It was my least favorite of the set.
  3. I don't know if this will help you, but I have some I'm not using right now. It's 8.40 oz including bottle weight. Let me know if your interested.
  4. It looks like Northwoods Christmas is out of stock. Thanks for the info though. Hopefully, it will be back in stock soon.
  5. I am looking for a Pier 1 dupe of Cranberry Balsam. I see that Nature's Garden has one but I have never ordered from them before and have read mixed reviews. Does anyone have experience with this fo in candles/wax melts or know of another fo of this scent? It's a good friend's favorite scent and I would love to make it for her. Thanks so much!
