Asher Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 Forgive me if this is the billionth time such a topic has been posted.Anyway, I recently got the "Home For the Holidays" scent and absolutely love it. Currently, it would have to be my favorite since it really brings back lots of Christmas memories.I know that sounds a bit "mushy", but I'm sure the same is true for others as well. Besides, your nose has a direct neural connection to your brain, so scents can be powerful memory invokers (can you tell I have studied neuroanatomy in the past?) As far as non-seasonal scents go, I picked up "Irish Creme" from Lone Star Candle Supply several years ago. I haven't had it since, but from what I remember it was a very good scent.

judyvega Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 I also love Home for the Holidays - have made a ton of gift candles w/it for xmas, so I'm getting a bit tired of it right now, though. I LOVE mango papaya, clean cotton, and cool citrus basil.OH!! and I forgot to add Ocean, my absolute favorite!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synascents Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 It's a very unique scentYou can really smell the mint in it but it's not overpowering.It's a very pleasant scent.Here is the description from NG:"The refreshing aroma of the mojito drink; Rich sugary base notes with top notes of fresh sprigs of mint, juicy fresh lime and rum."

Scented Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 no secret that patchouli is my favorite lol. Sandalwood comes in right behind and there a bunch of others, but prefer those two the most. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synascents Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 Alot of people for some reason do not like PatchouliLike my hubby...I make the candle, he gags, I burn the candle..he opens up the window and we go on with life after I secretly close the window!

Synascents Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 seattle 70What does Shampure smell like?Sounds intriguing here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seattle70 Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 Ironic that you should ask as I have one buring right now and I can't stop thinking how great it is. It fills up my 1100 sq foot house in no time. It's an Aveda dupe, very Spa like. OOB it's strong but then it morphs into an even better (still strong) scent when lit. I got it from DayStar candles. This seems to be one of their most popular ones and I can see why. I absolutely love it. Beware: once you go to Daystar and read their descriptions you may end up buying more that you want. They are great with their marketing. Not that that's a bad thing because I have loved all my FO's from there. And if you like mint, try Scented Bean's Refresh Mint. It's got a touch of mint but hell if I can describe the other fragrances in it. I would also catagorize it as a SPA scent. Very very unique and I love it. Not Eucalyptisy (is that a word?) or anything. I made some Refresh Mint and Bunchberry and Moss and they sold very fast here. I guess people want to de-stress in Seattle seattle 70What does Shampure smell like?Sounds intriguing here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
