I didn't care for the Apple Berry. I bought it a few years ago so don't know if it's still the same or not. I can't stand Mom's Baby Powder.  But my cousin loves it and has ordered several candles from me. I wasn't crazy about Citrus OOB so I haven't used it yet. But you can't always tell just by sniffing the bottle.  The best special I have bought from there so far is Botanical Breeze (no longer available though).  I let it sit on the shelf for 2 or 3 years before I put it in wax, and it was really good.  

 

I use Granny's Pumpkin Pie for a mixer.  I like Bergamot and Cotton Candy OOB but again, I haven't put them in wax yet.  Blackberry is OK OOB, I want to blend it with something.

I just got my order.  Of the 4 bottles 3 seem decent oob but 1 was not what i expected.  Of these Cedar, blackberry, honeysuckle, and oven baked apple pie all but cedar smell pretty good oob but cedar i had to smell a few times and never could tell it was cedar.  To me honeysuckle smelled just like what we had growing in the backyard of our old house.

Bummer, I guess half do and half don't as I scroll through their list. 

 

I've noticed that some FO's have very basic scent descriptions now.  They have over 1000 scents, so maybe it's taking a decade or so to give them all scent descriptions.  :) 

 

I called them a few months ago to let them know I had reviewed an FO and the review never did show up.  So they fixed that.  The reviews are very sparse as it is.

Yes, I agree Gail!  I emailed them not too long ago and told them many crafters skip over their scents due to lack of descriptions.  They told me to email them specific ones I want info on if need be.  I'm thinking you're probably right, just taking forever to get them all listed.
