jbradshaw Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Some of these are new, some just new to me, I've noted which is which. Just got these in so thought I'd do a little OOB first impression. New to CS (as noted on their site) White Birch: Soooo nice. Has a really nice evergreen smell to it - I used to have a room oil from The Body Shop called 'evergreen' and it smelled exactly like this. Might mix with Cranberry marmalade. Cranberry Woods: Love this! Has the tartness of the cranberry but is evened out with a good forest smell. And some citrus? Toasted Pumpkin Spice: I normally don't go for bakery scents, and I'm very pleased that this is mostly spice-y and not sweet. Vetiver: Classic - but not very strong OOB. We shall see. New to me Cranberry Marmalade: Too sweet for me as a standalone - I will mix with something to mellow it out. I bought it to try with Fig as someone on here had suggested, and will probably also try with an evergreen scent. Gingerbread: Not too sweet, and the spices really come through. Mulled Cider and Chestnuts: VERY nutty. Not getting much cider or spice at all, but I'll see what it's like in a candle. I'm most excited for White Birch, Cranberry Woods and Toasted Pumpkin Spice. I might do the pumpkin spice with a little vanilla and call it PSL to be cheeky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I mix the cranberry marmalade with straight orange for a cranberry citrus. I know some like the gingerbread but it smells yuck to me like fake plastic. I use a much better gingerbread so will stick with that. I am wanting to try the cranberry woods and white birch. I already have enough pumpkin so I may skip the toasted pumpkin spice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll probably pour cranberry woods and/or white birch today so if I do I'll let you know what the CT is like. What pumpkins do you love? I am having a lot of trouble finding ones I like/don't mind.
