Greetings fellow candle buddies!
My name is Avery and it’s confession time: I’m a Sniffer…. and, my “scent-sniffing” goes way back. It doesn’t matter what form – candles, air fresheners, potpourri, simmer oils and wax tarts. I am so smitten with “scent,” my friends and family always request that I go shopping alone! They don’t have an appreciation for the time I spend standing in front of scented objects, sniffing each one, then pushing the item toward their nose, saying “oooh, smell this one!” And it’s just as well… I don’t want to be hurried!
This addiction began several years ago with one single Partylite Mulberry melt. A friend said that lighting her melter was the first thing she did when she came home, and quite frankly, I thought the whole thing sounded sort of goofy. But she was persistent, she convinced me to buy a melter and give it a whirl…
After finding the Candlefind Review Board, I took the plunge and began ordering. And ordering… (I went backwards – from melts I then tried candles!) Then, the Candlefind forum began. Halleluiah! I could see that I was not alone. Finally, there were others that understood the rituals of reading scent lists, plotting orders, waiting for packages and organizing the loot! Oh – and the melting/burning part! Don’t forget the melting/burning part!
I look forward to being part of the Review Team. Since I like most scents ( hold the maple, please) I head into this adventure with excitement and an open mind! We may not all agree on scents, but we all appreciate candle money well spent!
Happy candle shopping!
