ah-soy Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 Is quirky even a word? Anyway, I'm putting a couple of finishing touches on a candle collection I've put together with a southwestern theme. I've got a fragrance or two from just about every category (fruits, bakery, etc) but need help naming a couple and getting them to fit the theme without stretching it too far...I want to use a tropical Mango Papaya type blend but how to tie into a southwestern theme? Well, the only lame idea I've come up with is something like Tropical Salsa or maybe Tropical Blast Salsa? I don't know if people would by a candle named after salsa...any help there?My other dilema, I need to work in a floral or two...I thought about Cotton Blossom (cotton is a big industry here) but that's tm'ed by BBW...or maybe Wildflower Meadow...we have some beauties up north, so I guess I'm actually asking for FO suggestiong and name help? Creative minds unite! TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewOrleansLady Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 How about Southwestern Sunset???? You could do a Tx Bluebonnet...oh JS has one called Cactus Flower and it's beautiful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sockmonkey Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 How about Desert Mango or Desert Fruit. It doesn't make any sense, but I think it sounds intriguing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klynne Posted May 27, 2007 Share Posted May 27, 2007 How about Mirage for the tropical fruit, and Desert Oasis for a floral. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blazerina Posted May 27, 2007 Share Posted May 27, 2007 Oh wow, those last few suggestions for the floral are great...I was just going to add Cotton Boquet if you can't use Cotton Blossom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juliette Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Fruit Salad Salsa, (that's actually a song name - Laurie Berkner, my son's favorite) I like Desert Bloom that sounds nice.JMO - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
