angellie5 Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 (edited) Somebody in our neighborhood uses a wood burner and I love to open the backdoor to let the dogs out and smell the smoky sweet scent on a chilly morning. I wonder if they are burning maple logs or something (or it is mingling with somebody's dryer sheets LOL) since it isn't like a pungent straight up campfire smell. Anywho, is there a scent that is smoky, sweet, and complex in a perfume type of way (not bakery)? I wonder if I could mix a smidgen of campfire smoke with a sweet perfume/cologne scent of some kind? Thanks for any suggestions or letting me know it was gross and don't waste my time! Edited December 9, 2011 by angellie5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blacktieaffair Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 Try Fireplace ( straight ) or mix it with a touch of Oakmoss , both from BCN. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Candybee Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 CS Christmas Hearth. One of my best sellers. Has a rich smokiness with a touch of sweet spice and pine notes. Together they make an awesome blend. All I have to do is open a jar and have a customer smell it and their sold! Reminds me of my fireplace with a lovely fire burning with spicy goodies and a Christmas Tree in the room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wessex Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 Just off the top of my head maybe try mixing Christmas Hearth (CS) with Twilight in the Woods (NG) or Cracklin Birch (NG) or something like that?Never tried either, but just popped into my head.Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

angellie5 Posted October 31, 2015 Author Share Posted October 31, 2015 Thanks for all the suggestions and I may have found it after searching for four years! I tried CS's Christmas Hearth and it wasn't quite what I was looking for, I needed more sweetness. I poured Millcreek's Home and Hearth last night and it is wonderful! I sure hope it is strong after curing and smells good while burning. Here is the description from MC: A smooth rich base of warm vanilla and cinnamon wrapped in a smoky woody sandalwood evergreen clove mixture. It is just lovely. Thought I would update and give back since this forum has always been such a huge help to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
