Wax Luvs Wicks

I purchased this scent not too long ago and pulled it out of the drawer today to give it a go.  I LOVE me some lemon scents as most of you already know.. especially ones that are bakery!  I wasn’t really sure about this when I ordered it since it had coconut in it.  I don’t want my house to smell like I have oiled up for a day long tanning session. Wow was I impressed once I melted this…it’s now one of my favorites!  If you are worried that it’s going to be over powering it is….in the best way possible!  Bakery lemony goodness!  I dropped in two cubes and it lasted for hours.  It didn’t even die down … I was in the house all day with it warming and I could smell it the whole time.  Most of the time when I have something going all day I get use to it and don’t smell it after a while.  Not the case with this.  I will for sure order more of this!  The good news is it’s not part of the Bring Back My Bar sale…so I can get it any time of year.  Which is not the case for Cutiepie Cupcake (my all time fave).  Perfect in every way and I wish I had purchased this from the beginning!

 

Scentsy’s description of this fragrance is

“Melt-in-your mouth lemon custard layered with butter cake and sprinkled with toasted coconut.”

Can't wait to melt/burn them :D. Most are just repurchases but I'm happy to have some of the new scents as well. I'll make sure to write a review =)

I picked up Bunny Cake during the $1 Tarts and Votives sale at Yankee Candle. I was super excited to see this since my family has made a bunny cake for as long as I can remember and it was very much a cake covered in coconut!  We used to leave an ear without coconut because my sister has never been a big fan of it.  On a cold sniff I haven’t really gotten a lot of bakery or anything. It’s more of a vanilla/coconut smell.  I really am picky about this mixture since I don’t want it smelling like body lotion I have tried in the past (and hated with a passion).  I am hoping the citrus notes will make it more yellow cake meets bakery coconut with hints of citrus.  Bright and just down right makes you happy to eat it =). 

Yankee Candle describes this fragrance as

“A delicious way to hop into spring . . . a sweet treat of sugary coconut, creamy vanilla and bright citrus.”

After burning this votive I have come to the conclusion that it smells like flowers or soaps and not the bakery I was anticipating.  I am not sure why.  I will end up burning all three of the votives I purchased to see if this one was just sitting to close to another fragrance in the box and became a mix of that scent.  As for now, I don’t care for it.  I read mixed reviews for this scent before I even received my order.  I would rather it be super sugary sweet than smell like soap.

Rating (0-5):1/2  - we shall see how the others compare 

Throw: medium

Worth It: not as of now

If I think differently after I burn the others I will post an update.

I decided to melt Baked Apple Pie by Scentsy today. According to Scentsy "Flaky crust, apples and spices combined in a strong scent." When I first received this bar, I thought it was going to be more than just apples an spices. I was hoping the crust would come out more and be more bakery than just apples and cinnamon, you know more pie like. I wouldn't say it's is the best apple pie fragrance, however, I wouldn't say it's the worst either. It is a nice scent, don't get me wrong. I think it's pretty popular since Scentsy has it on their site still. It lacks what I was hoping for..crust. I Find most of the apple pie scents are basically just a version of apples and spice or its the opposite, super bakery with little bits of apple. Would I buy this again..yes it would be a nice everyday fragrance...although I rather have Cutiepie Cupcake :D

If you love sweet bakery coconut then this will be a good scent choice for you. It reminds me of toasted coconut on cakes. You have that buttery bakery note along side with the sweet rich coconut. I seriously feel like I'm baking on a summer day..like getting ready for the 4th of July. Tropical but not suntan lotion like.
Not only do I love how clean it burns (no tunneling..nice and even wax pool and I love the white wax) the throw on this bad boy is filling the kitchen and the great room with ease. Most of you might not have a store that sells Kringles (my closest store is about 60 miles away) I can tell you that I won't hesitate to pay for shipping from their website. They do have free shipping for orders of $150 or more and a flat rate for under that amount. If you order just the fragrance of the month in a large two wick then you basically get free shipping (you save about five bucks). :D. I just placed another order with them today.

Hi all. I had to close the domain site since I had a baby (have to save my nickels now). I will move all of my posts on to this site. I just ordered some Kringles today. I love their candles however I am sad that they don't have Frosted Cake anymore. I hope they will release a cake fragrance that is equally (or better) good.
