deanna Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 I am looking for advice on which scents you have found that go together the best for layered candles - especially going into fall and winter. 2 or 3 layer suggestions would be greatly appreciated!I have tried layering just the dyes with all the same scent, but that is no fun!

Trish Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 Any scents that go together work...Like, blueberry muffin, buttercream and strawberry cheesecake. I like the middle layer to be more neutral sometimes so when the top or bottom layer blend into the middle layer, it flows. JMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Dallas_Texas_Dean Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 I would just keep the groups together :BakeryBerries and FruitsFloralsWoodsBlendsOf course you can blend some of these together but this is pretty much a safe bet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indescent Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 Hi I've got twins (2 layers) and triplets (3 layers):For example, Inspired is rose, jasmine and lily of the valley. Another triplet is La Isla Bonita, pineapple, orange and pomegrante. Its great because scents I would typically just mix I can layer, so they kinda "double" as products.

ScentsandMore Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 I have not tried any but found this list on a candle company website:http://www.oldvirginiacandle.com/scroll down and click on triple collection on left side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelaVA Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 I have one that my MIL and all her friends love. Bottom layer is Cake Bake (like a pound cake scent, but not lemon pound cake), middle layer is Caramel and top layer is Whipped Cream. It smells heavenly as the layers come together.

scents for me Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 I love 3 different kinds of pumpkins, making then in 3 shades of pumpkin. Or a middle layer of cinnabuns. Cinnamons or FO's with cinnamon are very popular around here as layered candles. Apples also, a million combinations for that. Homeamade apple pie, apple jack and peel and spiced apple pecan!

Molly Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 I do one with lemon, lime and tangerine that people just love! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tlc26 Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 I would go to the old board archives and look under where it says scent mixing or blending ideas (or something like that) I would take some of the things that people mixed and do them in layers and then rename or call it what they called the mix!

Scented Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 Betting on in a herbal combination would be good too. Just combo the scents to match what they are good for perhaps, like a relaxing one might be lavender, chamomile, rosemary or there's the ever popular sensual blends of say jasmine, ylang ylang and rose or even sandalwood.
