Terry Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Hi All,I just received my order of Pumpkin Pie Spice from AH/RE. It seems most people are looking for a more "pumpkin" scent and I am looking for some spice in the scent.OOB I am not smelling too many spices. Does anyone know if you can smell the spices once you pour and candle cures? If I wanted to add spices to the PPS FO like cinnamon and clove how many grams would I deduct to add in the clove and the cinnamon? (will be using 1 oz of oil and 1 lb. 4627).Thanks for the help... -Terry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megandgarr Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Did you ever put this oil in wax and if so how did it do? Did the spicier notes come through? From what I recall this one smells similar to Spiced Pumpkin from Yank**. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Posted October 30, 2013 Author Share Posted October 30, 2013 Sorry, don't know what the Yank** Spiced Pumpkin smells like.... But the AH/RE pumpkin pie spice oob it smelled kind of bland like I needed to add more spice, kind of crusty. Put it straight in 4627 in sq mason jar with HTP-73. Cured it for a week and then lit in my bathroom (smallest room in the house). My overall opinion was that the scent was not strong enough for ME! (gave it a # 1 my own personal rating scale for scents) which is equal to not much scent. Did not mix with any other spices yet but intend to, not right now though. Maybe it’s me but I have had absolutely no luck with any pumpkin scents. OOB I loved sweet pumpkin spice (Peaks) and also CS pumpkin spice—I’m on a pumpkin mission, LOL! Poured both the same way as above--unable to wick the sweet pumpkin spice because of jar overheating and soot (HTP-73 and 83 in sq mason) and the pumpkin pie from CS did not give off a strong enough scent either IMHO, all very disappointing. I almost gave up on Pumpkin scents when I decided to try one last one: Pumpkin Honey Chai (Peaks). It is awesome! It is so different and will fill a very large room and more in 4627. Love it!

chuck_35550 Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Try Pumpkin Souffle or Gingered Pumpkin are spicy pumpkin fragrances. I mix the two for a softer version. HTHSteve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
