  1. Drink up me Hearties - wine scent

    Parrot - Tropical island scent

    Blackjack - Ocean & linen scents

    Patchy - leather scent

    Limeys - of course limes (these were used to prevent scurvy)

    I would to think up some more but I'm heading out for coffee!!

    I can't imagine what a pirate smell would be. I know it aint any cologne type,lol.

    Some ideas to get you guys going

    Ship, swords, treasure chest,coins,

  2. Well I've contacted the police department in that town where the scammer lives and send a picture of the letter & envelope. I told the department that several candle companies have been contacted so hopefully they will look into.

    Fraud is fraud no matter how big or small.

    It looks to me it's the work of an older person by the handwriting style.

  3. Wouldn't you know it, I got the exact same letter today and I'm in...Canada. I knew right away it was a scam when he stated the candle (the most expensive one on my site of course) did not have a wick.

    Goodness he certainly goes through great lengths handwriting these letters, sending them by postage mail and expecting something in return?

    But what gets me is that he's not demanding a replacement,credit or refund just an explanation on how a wick was missed in a candle given 'quality control checks'. It's almost like a trap for another trap.

    Seriously this guy needs to be stopped and why isn't he yet if he has been reported?

    I'm really thinking about sending him that jack in the box :shocked2:

  4. Sorry, but I've never sniffed Thymes "Frasier Fur" or the "Frasier Fur" from Candlewic. However, I do use Scotch Pine from Candlescience ... here is the description ...

    A warm earthy scent with mossy green accents. Hints of apple and peach add lift to the woody fir balsam, spruce and cedar heart. Altogether the scent is reminiscent of a fresh pine forest.

    Hope this helps some.

    Thanks Candlebuddy,

    There are a few forest scents I would love to try from Candlescience but unfortunately they don't ship to Canada :sad2:.

    I've been searching for months and months to find a certain clean and refreshing forest scent without the heavy pine notes. It's more citrus, light moss and light cedar/fir woods. It's really hard to explain it. My mom got the Frasier Fir candle when she was down to the states and thought that would be the closest scent I'm looking for which it is.

  5. I just got a sample of this oil and when I first took a whiff of it, it reminded me of something very very familiar then it hit me. Underneath the spicy top tones, I could really detect what to me smells like 'Ombre Rose'. I loved that perfume until it has gotten really hard to find. My Grama used to have it and so I started wearing it in my 20's (& no I'm not an old lady!!) My Grama had class!:thumbsup:

  6. Just be careful not to get too attached to C & S. I started to carry some of their oils within the last couple years only to have at least four being discontinued already. I'm now afraid to try any more of their oils because of this. Which is too bad because these were nice oils.:(
