Here are some reviews from recent orders!!

Apple Blossom:
This smells like a clean, pretty soapy apple scent but not in a bad soapy way!! It is very strong, I have it in a body mist and I sprayed it on one of my blazers, and I can still smell the scent days later!!

Cotton Candy Frosting: One of my new favorite scents it smells sweet and airy like if there was an actual cotton candy frosting!! It is not sickingly sweet because of the frosting note. I have it in a body mousse, scrub paired with blueberry cotton candy, and body mist, the scent smells strong in all three. In general I get about 5hrs or more on the body mists lasting on the skin. If I sprayed the body mist on my clothes I will smell the scent all day!!

Lemon Berry Dream Cake: This is hands down one of my all-time favorite scents and a scent I will repeatedly go back for!! It smells like creamy lemon pound cake with a hint of berry, it smells so realistic and I want to eat it LOL!! I have in a scrub/whipped soap duet, body mist, and body mousse! Her body mousse is one of my favorite etailer lotions because of scent strength and the texture just blends so well into the skin!

Loko Kai: I have it in a body mist and it smells like a tropical, fruity floral, It smells somewhat overpowering at first spray but after I let it sit on my skin it settles down nicely.

Pina Colada: I really like this scent for my scrub, it smells tropical and creamy and candy like! I love her scrubs because they are exfoliating and the scents linger on the skin.

Satsuma Guava
: Another favorite of mine, smells like the normal bright orange "Satsuma" type scent but the mandarin note is downplayed and smells more 'lemon" citrusy and sweet with the guava and florals! I like that it is not as in your face orange smelling as regular Satsuma.

Texas Cactus: I have it in a body mist and this is really nice clean fresh air scent but it gives me a headache if I spray it on my body. I have been using it as a room and closet spray and love it for that use!

Thanks Alli ! I think it's a great idea for us to post reviews of scents we have tried under the specific site category.

My favorite Candledippers scent is Garden of Eden. It's a fruity floral with amber notes. Very sexy. Suitable for all seasons. JUST LOVE THIS.

Serenity is also gorgeous. It's light enough in body lotion form to not offend those who dislike smelling fragrances in the workplace, but perfect to induce a relaxed, dreamy feeling.

Thanks for the reviews!

All now added to my wish list :).

I've really liked my first CD order so far. I got a free sample of the lotion inCotton Candy Frosting - I really liked it, too, and will try more lotion and this scent in a tart.

The tarts I've really loved and will definitely order multiples of are:
Fairy Dust & Twinkle Toes
Garden of Eden - I'm with Boogie on this one! So glad this was recommended to me.
Imagine That
Oompaloompa - odd but fun & fresh


Very good ones that I will re-order two at a time (well, maybe more :)):
Blue Lotus - this had a particularly strong throw
Day at the Spa
Rattlesnake Grass
Red Sedona - this was very floral to me - not what I expected from the description
Secret Wonderland
Sweet Serenity - I really liked it but dh did not at all

Some I didn't like:
Midnight Bamboo, Fresh Lemongrass & Olive (I didn't like the olive part), Cherish (bah), Black Satin, & Cinnamon Cake. I liked the Lemongrass Sage at first but after a few hours, it got a pretty sharp lemon note.

I have a lot more left to try :)

I ordered the 1.5oz 0.8 oz cups, one in each scent. These have worked great in my 15-watt Scentsy plug-in (small powder room) but I need more in my 25 watt melters. For me, the throw is medium from 1.5 oz 0.8 oz. Next time I will order multiples!! I did combined Garden of Eden and Imagine That after a while 'cuz each were petering out in their separate rooms - the combination was stronger and a really great scent, to boot!

Hi Pam and roserent!! :laugh: I thought it was a good idea too Pam about posting reviews under "Sites We Love" so people can always refer to them if they are thinking of plotting orders! I will have to try Serenity in a body lotion since I am always looking for work appropriate scents. I have enjoyed Garden of Eden in the past too, I should try that in tart form! Thanks for the reviews Roserent and also for including scents you didn't like because it helps those with similar scent tastes who might want to avoid the same scent! How would you describe Fairy Dust & Twinkle Toes?

Hi Smiles1929! The Fairy Dust & Twinkle Toes was a really nice lemon scent...I am bad at describing scents - I would say it was like a complex lemon/vanilla. If you like soft lemon, it is worth a try. The description includes ozone but I didn't get any of that - there is a little floral. It is like trying to describe Garden of Eden...hard to do!

I didn't even notice this thread was in the Bath and Body forum! I replied about tarts only - whoops! :unsure: Not sure how these scents would be in B&B products!

I have Fairy Dust & Twinkle Toes in the body mousse and it is a strong, fruity scent. It's not just lemon to my nose. The grapefruit gives it a sharp twang, so it's not a soft scent like it was for roserent in tart form.

No worries roserent [smilie=th_wave] good to know what candledippers scents smell in tart form too! Thanks Pam for clarifying what Fairy Dust & Twinkle Toes smells like in body products. I will keep this scent in mind for tarts, sounds like a good scent to burn in the morning when you need something to perk up your senses!!

Thank You Everyone, Since I am not familiar with CandleDippers, reading these was very helpful.

For the record, I edited my post above to show that I actually tried the "Mini" melts ("Mini MeltEz)" and not the larger size melts.
