Polished Lifting

Finish: Three page markers and three charms with color shifting round crystals set in a silver-plated setting with tiny stars. These use rectangular paper clips, stainless steel rings, silver colored lobster clasps, silvery iridescent glass beads, 12mm rivoli crystals, and silver plated rivoli settings.

Price: $14

Notes: There is a cap of 40 sets. Due to the shape of the paperclip, the charms can't freely slide around. These also tend to be quite secure and hold onto sheets while being less likely to leave paperclip imprints on the page.

Scent: Citrus basil and cotton sheets

Cold sniff: Strong on the cotton sheets.Very laundry/detergent like

Throw: 2 out of 5. Could only smell it in one room and maybe the hallway

Warmer used: Better Homes & Gardens Botanical - 15 watt nightlight warmer

Amount used: Whole shape

Price: Unknown, this was a sample
Would I repurchase: Unlikely

Notes: This is a nice, fresh scent for a bathroom or bedroom, but it's just not a scent I see myself melting regularly. If you enjoy clean laundry/detergent scents you might enjoy this one.

Savannah Blue - Sunshine On My Shoulders

Scent: Papaya, barnwood, mango & fresh cut grass

Cold sniff: Tropical fruit, wood, and a touch of grass

Throw: 2 out of 5. Could only smell it in one room and maybe the hallway

Warmer used: Better Homes & Gardens Botanical - 15 watt nightlight warmer

Amount used: Whole shape

Price: Unknown, this was a sample
Would I repurchase: Probably

Notes: Just a little reminder about throw - this is always anecdotal due to the fact that I use different warmers in different spaces. Nightlight warmers are generally less hot so the throw is not usually as strong. In the case of Sunshine On My Shoulders this served it's purpose. I like using fresh scents in my bathroom and bedroom and would prefer that the scent stays in that general area. This was one of the better "fresh cut grass" scents I've smelled because it didn't overpower the blend. I could certainly see myself repurchasing this for a bathroom melt.

L3 Waxy Wonders - Sea Salt & Orchid

Scent: Sea salt & orchid

Cold sniff: More sweet than strong floral with a salty side

Throw: 5 out of 5. Could smell throughout the house

Warmer used: ScentSationals Mosaic Glass Warmer - 25 watt lightbulb

Amount used: Whole sample

Price: Unknown, this was a sample size
Would I repurchase: Maybe

Notes: When melted this scent is more floral than it lets on. It's not too overwhelming, but it does lose the sweetness. This smells quite tropical between the floral and salty notes

Bonjour Wax Co. - Fir Sure

Scent: Not seeing an official scent listed

Cold sniff: Fresh and piney 

Throw: 4 out of 5. Could smell everywhere but one room

Warmer used: AmbiEscents White Pumpkin - 25 watt lightbulb

Amount used: Whole sample

Price: Unknown, this was a sample size
Would I repurchase: Maybe

Notes: This was a nice, fresh outdoorsy scent. I don't melt a ton of pine or balsam, but I did enjoy this scent. I don't know if I would purchase this just because I don't melt that scent profile often.

All of these brands have wonderful and unique scent blends, many of which are semi-limited releases. Some of these scents may be available through each respective vendor. Most vendors post up to date info regarding future releases in their Facebook Fan Groups.

Scent: Bath & Body Works dupe, creamy vanilla and winter mint with a light touch of coconut

Cold sniff: Sweet vanilla and peppermint

Throw: 3 out of 5. Could smell in half of the house

Warmer used: Better Homes & Gardens Marina Art Glass - 25 watt light bulb

Amount used: 1/4 shot

Price: Unknown
Would I repurchase: Maybe

Notes: I've never smelled the Bath & Body Works version of this scent, so I can't say if it's a spot on dupe. I will say that this is one of the more unique vanilla and mint blends I've smelled. I like a lot of mint blends so my "maybe" on the repurchase is that way just because I am working through my current stash.

Scent: Dark chocolate, pistachio, sea salted caramel, sugar cookies

Cold sniff: Dark chocolate, sea salt, with a hint of caramel and pistachio

Throw: 4 out of 5. Could smell everywhere but one room

Warmer used: AmbiEscents White Pumpkin - 25 watt lightbulb

Amount used: 1/4 shot

Price: Unknown (was part of a sampler)
Would I repurchase: No

Notes: This was an interesting blend, and I enjoyed it while I melted it, but I couldn't see myself repurchasing it. I like that the dark chocolate in this blend was just that. It gave the blend a nice dark, bitter note.

Scent: Blackberry lavender pink sugar

Cold sniff: Blackberry with pink sugar and a touch of lavender

Throw: 3 out of 5. Could smell in half of the house

Warmer used: AmbiEscents Brambles - 20 watt nightlight warmer

Amount used: Full sample

Price: Unknown, this was a sample
Would I repurchase: Maybe

Notes: This is kind of an unusual blend but I think it works quite well. I believe the lavender is more of a sweet lavender because I'm not getting any herbal notes from this one.

Scent: Iced lemonade, sweet lollipops and gain

Cold sniff: Sweet lemon and laundry

Throw: 3 out of 5. Could smell in half of the house

Warmer used: ScentSationals Mosaic Glass Warmer - 25 watt lightbulb

Amount used: 1 cube

Price: Unknown. This was a sample cube
Would I repurchase: Maybe

Notes: I'm not entirely sure how I would feel about this scent long term but it was a nice refreshing lemon and laundry blend without being too "clean" if you know what I mean.

Sweet Sage Scents - Half Baked

Scent: Zucchini bread, lemon pound cake, coconut cream pie

Cold sniff: Sweet lemon pound cake, with coconut and zucchini bread notes

Throw: 4 out of 5. Could smell everywhere but one room

Warmer used: Better Homes & Gardens Marina Art Glass - 25 watt light bulb

Amount used: Full shape

Price: Unknown
Would I repurchase: Yes

Notes: I think it's worth noting that my husband took the time to comment on this scent and it wasn't even to complain about it. Normally he only speaks up when he doesn't care for something, but in this case he wanted to let me know that he really liked this scent. This will be on my "to order list" in the future.

Sweet Sage Scents - Poppy Cakes

Scent: Vanilla bean noel, buttercream cupcake and toasted marshmallow

Cold sniff: Super sweet vanilla blend

Throw: 3 out of 5. Could smell in half of the house

Warmer used: ScentSationals Mosaic Glass Warmer - 25 watt lightbulb

Amount used: Full shape

Price: Unknown
Would I repurchase: Maybe

Notes: This was super sweet. I didn't dislike it, but I felt like it might have needed something non-vanilla to go with it.
