Im not that great at blending so Im kinda nervous lol ! Hopefully someone on here has tried one - sounds awesome ! The best smores I have ever smelled in my life was when I had my shop and I carried the McCalls line of candles and they had a candle called "Campfire Marshmallow". Was my number #1 seller for the years I had my shop. They have since renamed it Smores. I have never smelled a candle quite like this one it was that unbelievable. I have tried just about every supplier out there for a great Smores....but nothing. RE Toasted Marshmallow seems to be the #1 fragrnace out there and though I really like it, it is still not like the McCalls. Actually I'm right now dabbling with blendings to come up with one that I can call is finally what I'm looking for. Now Indiana Candles has Toasted Marshmallow and I just got a pound of it a few weeks ago. It is an awesome thrower but it is lacking something. I think the rich deep aroma is missing. I'm blending with Indianas pie crust and also some grahm cracker to it. I'm also going to try a rich chocolate I'm thinking Chocolate Brownies from Tennessee....yep, can't believe that I'm trying that since they will be out of business in a couple of weeks. ha! I have tried Fillmores cocoa therapy but I just didn't care for it....That's just my personal opinion. I know it has great reviews and others love it....but it didn't float my boat! lol...So the search is on. I'm going to follow this thread and see what others come up with....good luck to all of us. I just posted 2 pictures I did the RE toasted marshmallow in on another thread of a new jar I did for myself. Trappeur 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trappeur Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 I was just thinking of this if your blending....I think you need a campfire in there somewhere. I have a fragrance from Wholesale supplies plus called "CracklingFirewood"....It is so so beautiful but I could never ever wick a jar with that fragrance to save my soul. Actually I bought some pillars from a gal on the forum and those pillars were sooooo awesome but that was in a pillar. Maybe I might try adding a bit of this to the smores blend and it might just work since I'm not doing an entire candle in the scent. Geesh I had a 16oz country comfort jar in that fragrance made up and I was all the way up to 2 cd 14's and it still wouldn't get a full melt pool.....Just never could wick it. I've never used another bonfire fragrance or something similar to it...so I can't make any suggestions there. This scent smell EXACTLY like a fire going in the fireplace and you smell nothing else but that. It's great! Trappeur 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonstar Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Will have to try the crackling firewood for wax melts - wonder how it compares to RE bonfire bliss ? Ive never heard of McCalls are they still around ? your blend sounds great - I wish I had some of Tennessee's brownie I prefer brownie scents , much richer I think . Let us know how it turns out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trappeur Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 I don't know how it compares to bon fire bliss...but I'm going to get a sample of it. I'll let you know. Trappeur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoldieMN Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Yes McCall's candles is still around. They no longer sell their flowerpot votives, though. My favorite is their Spiced Pear. Been ordering one pear fragrance after another but nothing comes near to it. I am finding that many of the cocoa or chocolate fragrances remind me of fudgsicles. Not chocolate enough for me. My husband thinks Santas Whiskers smells like a campfire. So I'm thinking of testing two different ones for later this year. I really should put Bonfire Bliss in wax and not go by OOB.

Belinda Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 I love NG's gourmet chocolate and also Daystar has one she calls Chocolate Covered Marshmallows. That mixed with Graham Crackers or Hansel & Gretals House (which reminds me of a graham cracker in a way) might make a good S'mores scent. Texas Candle Supply has Brownies Au Caramel but I haven't tried it. JS had a good chocolate caramel brownie and chocolate fudge cake but I don't see either one on her site. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonstar Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Santa whiskers is one that i didn't order - darn it ... I was trying to stay focused + stick to 20 lol ! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoldieMN Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 I know what you mean. I bought a bigger bottle from Nature's Garden to see if it smells the same. In the middle of testing right now. I will let you know what the difference is. Goldie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted August 15, 2016 Author Share Posted August 15, 2016 Thanks for the advice. Looks like I will have to blend my own if I want a good smore's fragrance. Moonstar I have Bonfire Bliss and it is a nice campfire scent with notes of marshmellow it that helps. But I don't see it being very functional in a smores blend. I also have cocoa therapy from Fillmore but it seems like it has changed and it is no longer a favorite chocolate. The one I am in love with now is Peaks Cocoa Bean & Sea Salt. OMG it smells awesome OOB. Haven't put it in wax yet as its a sample I love to keep sniffing and am hoarding it to myself. Seems like if I want to put together my own smores blend I need a rich dark chocolate, graham cracker, and toasted marshmellow. I don't think the 'smoke' note is necessary but if it it I would use a straight woodsmoke or campfire scent that is mostly smoke with charred wood notes. I think just a hint of a woodsy smoke would finish the smores but would only know if I tried it. Right now I don't want to go into all the R&D it takes to create a blend. Was hoping there was already a smore's FO out there. Sigh.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep that gourmet chocolate is awesome you sent me Belinda! I forgot all about that. Oh god....another one - choc. cov. marshmallows? Sounds great. Ok, now you all have me on a roll to get making a smores....I love love smores! So lets see to do a smores need: a rich chocolate, graham crackers, marshmallow, a little fix mixed in.... maybe I might add some vanilla voodoo....for depth... So who has the best graham crackers? hmmmmm Trappeur 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not even a big fan of eating marshmallows out of the bag, they need to be in a recipe or really stale. The S'mores I find myself craving for some reason. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maryta Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 I like Oregon Trail Toasted Marshmallow & Hot Cocoa. Light thrower for my wax but could be a good component. Bonfire Bliss, to me, is its own scent and very sweet. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
