Happy noon!

 

I put on HoT - Carolina Wedding Cake this morning and it's still kicking out a yummy scent.

 

 

Question about Bridgewater Candle's Solitude scent:

 

I put what I thought was Solitude on last night, and although I really liked it, it smelled nothing like the floral/woodsy description. It smelled spicy like cinnamon, ginger, frankincense, cassia. That type of thing.

Maybe I grabbed the wrong tart but I could swear the label was Solitude. I even tried to fish the wrapper out of the trash can but I couldn't find it.

 

So, my question, for anyone who has smelled Bridgewater - Solitude. Did you find it to be a floral like the description or a spicey scent like I experienced?

 

Jules I have a large Solitude jar and it does smell more like you described, with hints of powdery floral - it's really good but just not like the description. I have a tart too but haven't yet melted it. If the tart was white, then you definitely melted Solitude.

 

Bridgewater's Plumeria is more of a spicy one too but also really good - that tart is red. It's very different than the usual plumeria.

Good afternoon smellie lovers! Thanks for that description of Cheryl''s pumpkin scent puppylove. I love when there are extra notes in a scent to make it unique.

Glad you are back Mommyluvsnoah.

Hello there, Mommyluvsnoah!

 

Thanks Bigred. Yes Solitude was a creamy white color, and I did like it but got no floral from it. Sanity has been restored. Even DH commented on the cinnamon scent last night. No lotus petals, white rose or orange flowers.

Good afternoon....and happy Friday the 13th!!! LOL

 

No melts going right now, but I do have my brand new Goose Creek jar candle burning. The scent is Spice Cake and it's very good. A very nice bakery scent...more cake than spice I think, but still fantastic! I really like the look of the jar and the label is very pretty....very rustic looking. I 'won' this candle on ebay and I think I may go back for a couple of their pillars....

Hi Everyone!

 

I had a very busy day yesterday. No time for melting. Today it's GHBT Dragon's Blood. This is a new scent for me. Too soon to tell if I like it.

Hi, mommyluvsnoah!

 

Melting Cucumber Melon from Blue Gecko.

[PuppyLove 1]

Howdy Mommyluvsnoah!

 

My AMS Love Spell is going strong and smelling wonderful. The peach has faded somewhat and now it's more like apple plus some other fruity scent. Almost a hint of citrus. I'm likin' it a lot!

 

Boy, some of the scents you all are melting/burning sound really yum!

Hi Mommy!

 

Denim - I also get a little queasy from bakery scents - odd, huh? I like them at first, then...

 

BidRed - Whoa - you must feel like you are in a florist shop! How lovely.

 

We had Taste of Home magazine's cooking school here this week. I went and won a huge bag of ziplock bags and storage containers as a door prize. Can you believe it? I sat there trying trying to figure out how I could use them to store tarts! Over the edge...I have gone over the edge.

 

I melting left over Christmas because I don't want to climb the stairs to put them away with the rest of the Holiday melties. The How Very Merry (last years) from Cozy is amazing - strong and it just won't quit! The Crazy for Candles Reindeer Poo is very strong, but the clamshell wax has gotten all crumbly - almost need a spoon!

I love the Blue Hydrangea but it is a strong floral.

 

 

I still have all the same scents going and I seem to have gotten my GC Casablanca Lily candle under control finally although it still hasn't formed a full melt pool all the way out to the sides but at least the wicks aren't drowning any longeand it isn't tunneling any more either. The Lemon Sugar & Candied Violets from Carol is an awesome scent - a new favorite.

[DesertRose 0]

I switched the scents.

 

Now I have Strawberry Kiwi from Blue Gecko and fabulous Green Apple pucker also Blue Gecko.

This evening I'm melting R G - blue sugar and Evening Eclipse-Voodoo Doll. I love this scent. It's one of those "so unique it's hard to describe.".

[Juletones 1]

I switched out to HoT - Pink Ribbons. I smell roses.

Melting Amish Quilt from GHBT. This is so good. Also Cozy Christmas from AMS. I can never get enough of this!
