Fire and Ice Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 I'm sitting here contemplating the new scents I want to try in Jan, during R&D. I've heard everybody rave about this scent and I wondered what it smells like. I know JS has it but I wonder before investing? What does it smell close to?

DENISE72598 Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 To me it smells like brown sugar that has baked up in a cookie (yummy) with a touch of nuts. If I wasn't looking at the label I would say it was maybe close to oatmeal raisin cookies...sweet, warm and very scrumptious. HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meredith_D Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 It smells like heaven to me LOL. I would say brown sugar cookies, warm and fresh out of the oven. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trish Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 To me, it's a sweet buttery brown sugar smell with a hint of nut. It throws like crazy for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharon in PA Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 I agreee, this is a fabulous scent- definately smells like something totally yummy baking-you cannot go wrong, throws great in my 50/50! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelaVA Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 I didn't really like this one. It didn't smell like real brown sugar to me. It smelled kinda like plastic or something. I like JS Brown Sugar Pecan much better and it throws great. Just personal preference, I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsmejeffd Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 Maybe I got an odd batch. I love this scent but I don't smell any brown sugar. To me, and everyone else who has smelled it in the comfort blend that I use in square mason jars, it smells like a combination of caramel and vanilla.

Fern-Marie Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 I have not tried this scent, but now after reading this, I just might. I tried something with a chestnut topnote once, a few years ago, and I thought it was horrid - afraid to try it again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephanie Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 I get mine from Willowwoods and LOVE it! Like I want to eat the candle LOVE it! And sadly I just read on her website today that they are temporarily out of business because of an illness. I'm coveting mine!! Sorry, I guess that wasn't very helpful. But she's hoping to get back into business, and if not has something worked out with Bittercreek to sell her popular fragrances. Fingers crossed!

Fern-Marie Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 Hi Firstlady,I just wanted to tell you, when I read what you wrote my mind just conjured all sorts of images of a family making memories. I just love that you wrote about the kids, now gone. For the first time in weeks, I stopped to 'smell the roses'. Thanks for sharing that, you have no idea how much I needed to be reminded that life is about the good stuff, making memories. Gosh, I miss my mom, but we sure made some memories.Fern-Marie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KMommy Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 I have JS Chestnut & Brown Sugar and it smells heavy on the butter to me. I am having to use a bit higher % with it than some of my other FO's but it sure does smell good. You guys are going to make me cry! After reading the above post I remembered how my mother use to make popcorn balls. I can picture her in the kitchen at this time of the year making popcorn balls, pralines and M&M cookies. I miss her each and every single day. Funny how scents can stir up memories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prairieannie Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 I think it smells like toffee popcorn. In fact, I renamed the scent to Toffee Popcorn" LOL. It's funny how a name can affect what people smell too..because now everyone that sniffs it says..OMG, it DOES smell like that. hehehe.

firstlady Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 Fern , i'm so glad you took time to "stop and smell the rose's" today. the little things in life are the best , sometimes the best things in life are free, you don't have to pay,earn or work for them... you just got to make memories to have them. they are pricless. every christmas the smell of oranges brings back the memory of my dad, no matter how hard times was back when i was a little girl , my dad would make sure us kids had a big fat orange.

Fern-Marie Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 [ my dad would make sure us kids had a big fat orange.Yeah, in your stocking. My mom did too. We never understood what the orange thing was about. Now, I know how fortunate we were to have the orange. I wish I appreciated the gesture then,and the history lesson she was trying to teach us, if only for her own memories from childhood.My husband's dad speaks of the same thing, orange in the stocking. Funny.We're in the same country, sometimes we seem worlds apart, but then there's something like an orange and all at once, we're neighbors.Gotta love our America!
