Guest OldGlory Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 I have melts at a farmer's market right now - probably around 50 fragrances and adding each week. I am trying to divide them into categories for easy shopping and I wonder if I am overlooking some types of scents. So far I have bakery & coffee shop, clean (to encompass laundry type scents and spa type scents), fruity, resinous, outdoorsy, designer, a few ocean types, a few florals... people are not ready to buy spicy scents yet.What am I missing? I have a habit of 'rabbit holing', that is to say I don't stray far from scents that I like. I am considering a natural group - lavender, eucalyptus, peppermint, citrus, but they will have to have a different price structure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Actually I get asked for spicy scents all the time. Especially cinnamon. Today my pumpkin spice was a winner! So you may want to rethink the spicy scents. If it were me, I would add a line of aromatic and incense types like cedar, sandlewood, dragon's blood, nag champa, angel, oakmoss & amber, patchouli, etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest OldGlory Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Thanks for your suggestions!I am already taking spicy scents, but my customers are not interested. I don't know what's up with that, lol. Could be the stifling heat.The resinous category includes sandalwood, amber, and a peppercorn. I put a tobacco type with them. I'll look at adding something powdery like nag champa.Someone asked for patchouli last week, but if I add patchouli the price for that one will be much higher. That is one fragrance I just can't compromise my standards on, so it's the good stuff or it's nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
