ladysj Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 I thought since they are having that sale now would be a good time to try some of their FO's. They have some very interesting, different scents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaithfulScenter Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 This is my first time ordering from Moonworks, so far I've picked out Autumn Embers, Fall Festival, and Enchanted Spice, but I'm sure that will change before Saturday!

jenn624 Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 all of them my favorites are Celtic Myst, Earthen Oak, Guinevere's Attraction, and Winter Festival... but I've loved just about every FO I've gotten there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beth Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 I really love fall festival but one of my new favorites is her tea and cakes...super strong and awesome in tarts:)The description sounds similar to Black Tea Orange Almond (which is awesome) from Candlewic?

rctfavr3 Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 (edited) ooh. How's her Earthened Oak? I'm needing a soft wood fragrance where cedar is too harsh and sandalwood is too sandalwoody.LOL. Edited August 29, 2012 by rctfavr3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorelei Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Earthened Oak I call Vintage Vanilla. It is very very good but it is not a full wood scent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FaithfulScenter Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 (edited) My order is still the same, except I added some Earthen Oak, and demoted Autumn Embers to a sample. I'm going to test it and try it against Bonfire Bliss and hopefully pick 1 from the 2! I'm hoping Fall Festival is as amazing as it sounds!!

jackbenimble Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 (edited) Hey guys! I just wanted to add my experiences with some of the FO I have. I use soy wax for all of these. The Celestial Sea is great! I didn't like it OOB but in wax it's amazing!! Medium/ Strong HTPatchouli Passion- I really like it and I'm not a patch fan. More a subtle HT but good. Does not knock you down.Sugar Cookie Royal- I'll say it again. This is super strong and the best sugar cookie I've smelled!!Fall Festival- only smelled OOB. It smells strong but I get more pumpkin than anything else. I'm hoping that in wax more of the notes from the description will come through. Autumn Embers- only smelled OOB. I get alot of woodsy notes. Hoping the other notes will come through in the wax. Morning Sunrise- only smelled OOB. It is a bit weak but hoping that will change in wax. Going to use it in a MP soap soon. Suede- only used this in MP soap: smells great and the scent is holding very well. Not sure if I could stand to test this in a candle. It's a very strong men's cologne scent. While I am a man it's just a bit too much for me. Also not sure if it would sell. I'm hoping to get a few of the FO I don't have as samples. Also I want to get the Tea & Cakes but think I needs good tea scent mixed with it since its dominant notes are the almond and orange. Okay that's I have for now. :-) Edited August 31, 2012 by jackbenimble Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moonshine Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Beth- wow- I can't get a hint of smell of bergamot tobacco when melting...Isn't that crazy!!Cold throw I think the tobacco is more dominant- its a hard one for me to describe- there is definite bergamot in there but it's more earthy to me than sweet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallTayl Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Thanks for the suede review Moonshine. Renegade Cowgirl - that's an inspired name. Love it!As for Bergamot & Tobacco - I get more tobacco OOB, CT and HT. It sort of smells like a study where a man has smoked a pipe. THat scent lingers, but is subtle.It's doing fair in my blend, but I need to wick up and try again. Jack, you're right about the Sugar Cookie. I have had 3 test burning in my workshop the past few days as I make CP and other candles. I've had a few moments when I smell something different over all the other scents and realize it's the sugar cookie! The workshop is pretty big and has the main windows open, so that says a lot.Now don't everyone go off and take all the Sugar Cookie!
