firegirl Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 I was reading about everyones favorite fall/Christmas scents and I was curious if anyone blended their own? Here is my favorite and it sells like crazy!! My number one seller in the fall and at Xmas time! I buy all of these at Save On Scents in the Ultra Concentrate version..I am sure you can use whaterver supplier you like best! I started mixing these with their one ounce samples an it was a huge hit. You can even play around with the amounts depending on what you like and the strength you prefer. I call this one NOEL..6 ounce Mac Apple.6 ounce Cinnamon(regular warm cinnamon and not the red hots type).3 ounce PearAnother good one is swap the Pear withe Mac Apple and you can call it Christmas PEARadise! I can't wait to hear if anyone has some personal blends they like to share!Teri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MeltAMemory Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 I made tarts last weekend with 50/50 Aroma Haven Hot apple pie and Snowtop Apple Jack N peel. It really put me in the holiday mood : ) This is a great thread. Holly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelaVA Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 I like mixing equal parts of Gingerbread and JS Sugared Clementine Spice (think warm orange gingerbread). Also mixing equal parts of those two, plus BCS Sugar Cookie. I love holiday scents and can't wait to try a zillion new ones this year, lol.

Candlebuddy Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 I recently discovered this one from Bittercreek . . . mix 2 parts Gingerbread & 1 part Hot Apple Pie and you've got Gingerbread Applesauce. Smells really delicious! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firegirl Posted July 11, 2006 Author Share Posted July 11, 2006 I got my idea to make my personal mix from selling something similar for a big company here on the West Coast. . We were moving it out by the cases in 26 ounce jars.. I am sending out one of their candles to have it duped so I won't have to hassle with mixing it anymore. If anyone is interested...let me know.. I will send out sniffie samples if the dupe comes out as great as the candle is. I have never met anyone who did not like it.. I loved reading everyones mixes.. They sound wonderful!! This is why I love this board.. thanks for sharing!Teri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amyp Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 My favorite and one of my best sellers is 2 parts Strawberry to 1 part Dickens Christmas from LS. I was making them at the same time and accidently poured both scents into the same batch. My sis-n-law was there and thought it was the best smell ever, so I started making it and customers just love it because it is so different. ( I did add more wax to adjust to the scent overload just in case you were wondering) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
