Fern Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Oh QuietGirl...I hope you didn't get a floral scent of mine in the tart swap...because if you did, your going to absolutely hate it. LOL I personally love florals, clean and fresh, a lot of perfume dupes and most fruits. I only like a few of the bakery or sweet scents, most I don't like at all...they just get to be too icky sweet for me when they have been burning for awhile. Some florals that I dislike are rose, gardenia and jasmine. And I too completely destest Black Canyon...I'd rather slit my throat then pour that again. LOL Another fruit scent I don't like is Monkey Farts. I went and bought a whole pound of this because so many people raved about it...I just didn't see what all fuss was about...haven't touched it since. Isn't it odd how everyone has such different opinions on what smells good and what doesn't to them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KMommy Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Ocean! It was a big seller and was very strong in the bottle and in the wax but it gave me the worse headache ever single time I used it. One of my pets had some respiratory problems and it all started after I poured that darn Ocean. This was with open windows, fans and overhead ventilation! The sales just weren't worth the headache. I haven't really located anything that smells "fresh" without that didn't have a slight scent same as Ocean. Yuck! Doesn't smell like any Ocean I've been around!

gobluesgram Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Patchouli here too! I had so many people ask for it so I had to start making stuff with it. The last batch of soap I made is hidden out of the way in another room so I don't have to smell it. I've gotten to where it doesn't make me gag anymore LOL. Have to scrub my hands good every time I use it or the scent just hangs on and ugh! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcroome2005 Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Sandalwoods and patchouli...those earthy scents kill me! LOLDitto for me (PUKE) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeana Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Fresh coffee started out ok for me but then I had to either throw away candles with that scent or wrapped them up really good and put them away. I couldn't stand that smell after awhile. And I dread getting orders for it. I can't stand Jasmine in CP, mixed or plain. In candles it's not so bad but if I soap this...YUCK. I have two batches I would love to toss right now with this scent. I'm not big on the ocean scents either. Earthy scents are only good as EOs.

Michi Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 I was sitting here thinking about some more scents that just make me wanna hurl, and I see that a few others have mentioned them also, so I don't feel so bad now.Creme Brulee from Peak- I thought ok, this stinks OOB, but a lot of peeps rave about it, so I'll put it in wax and check it out. OMG I couldn't get rid of those candles fast enough, I couldn't even test burn it all the way, I just threw them out. BARFLOVE SPELL- I had never smelled the VS before, but bought a pound of this stuff b/c everyone was using it, raving about it, and it was a request of my daughter (she said all her friends were wearing it etc.).I just cannot like this scent, I find nothing about it that's good, and my daughter LOVES it!!I made her soap, body spray, lotion etc. in this scent, and so not only did I have to gag over and over again while making it, but then I have to smell it almost on a daily basis. Steaming out of the shower in the mornings, stinking up my car when I take her to school. LOLWhy couldn't her fav. be sweet pea, or pink sugar, or something else that *I* like also????

Juliette Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 For me it's Mulberry and Gardenia - no rhyme or reason to it I just can't stand those two. Oh - and I mean those individual fragrances - not mixed together in case that wasn't clear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michi Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 I like all of those "earthy" scents as well Julie. Patchouli, sandalwood, Nag Champa, or combinations that include those in them. I've got this big pillar sitting in my living room (someone else made it not me) that I pass by every time I go into the kitchen and it's scented Balsam Sandalwood, and it's soooooooo good, I could just sit there and sniff it all day.
