I really smell a campfire smell to the Pumpkin Custard Spice too. Long after the candle is out, I'll walk into the room and it smells like campfire smoke! Others don't smell this though. So I mixed a little Sugar Cookie to soften it a little. It didn't change the C/T much but it did soften the H/T with more of a bakery scent. Some people said "I can't smell the Pumpkin in it". Well, what does pumpkin smell like really? I assume it's the spices we associate with pumpkin, like nutmeg, cinnamon, clove etc. Anyway, I sold over a hundred of the Pumpkin Custard Spice already, so somebody likes it!
