Haley's Heavenly Scents (Second Order!)

I've been a fan of Haley's Heavenly Scents since the beginning of this blog.  I've done a previous (extensive) scent review so I won't go back over details already on here.  Instead, let's just jump right into the few new scents I got to try during her latest sale!

Scents:

• Frosted Lime Cupcakes (12oz chunk jar candle) - Oh yum!  I love this one!  I don't really get much bakery scent, but mostly a mixture of butter and lime.  It smells great!  And travels like nobody's business!
• Tart Green Apples (2oz tart) - Boy, is this one crisp!  If you like apple scents, you'll love this one.  It reminds me of the Jolly Green Jolly Rancher candy.
• Green Apple Cotton Candy (2oz tart) - If you have read my last review on Haley's, you'll know that this was one of my favorites of the order.  It's a heavy (rather than candy) apple smell mixed with cotton candy.  So good!

Performance:
As always, Haley's Heavenly Scents preformed.....well, heavenly!  The small candle scented my entire living room with no difficulty and the tarts lasted a good, solid 18 hours.  This company puts out some good stuff!

MoneyPenny's SoySations

I am so absolutely happy to have found MoneyPenny's SoySations!  Until I was contacted by Angie, I hadn't been lucky enough to come upon her site!  MoneyPenny specializes in soy candles and tarts and is based out of Clinton, Illinois.  The owner is just an absolute sweet heart who's customer service is amazing.  So rather than talk your ear off further, let's get on to the review!


Apperance: 
For this review, I received 10 packs of clamshell melts in the standard container.  Each was clearly and beautifully labeled with the scent and website/contact information for MoneyPenny's.  I love the clamshell packs because they are easy to store and stack!
I also received 3 adorable 8oz jelly jar candles with beautiful rustic/bronze lids.  They also came clearly labeled, as well as having a sticker to indicate the cure date...a VERY nice touch.  


Scents:
Clamshell tart packs - 

• Lemon Meringue Pie - This is a perfect balance between the lemon and a delicious pie crust/bakery type scent.  The lemon does not overpower the bakery aspect, as a lot of other vendors' tend to do.
• Key Lime Pie - Again, this balances the lime and crust scent very well.  I also get a lot of butter smell from this which is just pure heaven!
• Hot Fudge Brownie - Perfect fudge scent!  No fake chocolate smell here, folks!
• Creamy Caramel - This has to be my all-time favorite caramel smell.  Wow.  It just oozes deliciousness! 
• Citrus Sunburst - Another great one from MoneyPenny's!  Citrus tends to be a hit-or-miss scent due to the tendency for one citrus scent to overpower the others.  Not the case here.  I get equal amounts of all the notes!
• Basil Sage Mint - I'm definitely not a huge basil fan.  It tends to irritate my nose, but this is actually really well done.  The basil and the mint work together to mellow each other out and it works perfectly.
• Black Currant Vanilla - This is a great one if you tend to like the cologne/perfume type scents.  To me, it smells like a sexy man cologne!  Very strong throw.
• Banana Cream Pie - This is one of my favorites from the order, mostly because it's an authentic banana smell, as opposed to the fake/candy scent I usually get from vendors.  I don't get a lot of bakery from this one on cold sniff, but I haven't melted it yet and it's sure to smell entirely different when I do.
• Vanilla Bean - All you vanilla lovers out there....TRY MONEYPENNY'S VANILLA BEAN!!  Man, this is good!  And the throw was really impressive for a vanilla scent :)
• Strawberry Cheesecake - This one smelled a little different than I expected.  Rather than the typical crust-heavy scent from most cheesecakes, it actually smelled more like a creamy strawberry.  I like this one a whole bunch!  Yummy!

8oz Jelly Jar Candles -

• Purely Pomegranate - I'm not sure if it was intentional, but this smells like an exact dupe of Scentsy's Pomegranate, which I absolutely adore!  It's a full, robust berry scent that throws like crazy!  So juicy and something I highly recommend.
• Cake Batter Ice Cream - Ooooh one of my favorite scents!  I've tried this from some vendors before and it's always a hit.  The one thing that made this stand out was it's throw.  Most Cake Batter Ice Cream's that I've tried have been rather light, which is understandable seeing as how the creamy scents just aren't that strong by nature.  This however, was a heavy hitter!  (And from a little 8oz jar!)
• Mango Sorbet - I'm a very, very picky critic of mango scents.  So when I tell you how much I liked this one, you'll know I'm not messin' around!!  This is such a great smell!  A delicious, creamy blend of mango that will make your mouth water, for sure!

Performance: 
This was one of the most impressive aspects of MoneyPenny's.  Of all the tarts I melted, I never got less than 12 hours of strong throw.  On top of that, the wax was super easy to pop out of my melters.  Her candles have a great throw, especially considering the size!  The burn time on the candles seems to be quite awhile and I'm more than happy with them.  I almost wish I could come up with something negative to say so this didn't seem like such a wishy-washy review but...alas, I can't think of a single thing! MoneyPenny's has some great stuff and you need to run - not walk - over to her site to check everything out!  There's also a Facebook Page you need to keep an eye one for current information and sales!

Rocky Corner Soap Works...Take Two!!

You might remember my review several weeks ago of a bar of soap I tried from Rocky Corner Soap Works in the scent grapefruit and peppermint.  I was somewhat disappointed in the lack of scent from this bar, but was more than impressed with the quality of the soap itself.  I vowed to try them one more time before discounting the company. 

Yesterday I got a wonderful surprise in my mailbox.  The owner of Rocky Corner Soap Works had sent me a letter of apology and a summer collection pack of their soap bars.  She apologized that the grapefruit and peppermint soap had not lived up to my expectations and informed me that they were pulling that particular scent from their site.  I was absolutely floored at the amazing customer service...especially since I had not even contacted RCSW regarding my purchase.  They simply happened upon my blog and wanted to make up for the bar of soap I had tried previously.  This is obviously a company that cares deeply about their customers and products.

The summer collection pack of soap consisted of seven different bars.  They are all such pretty colors and smell amazing.  Perfect for summertime!  Read on for the review:

Appearance: 
As I mentioned above, the bars are all vibrant and colorful.  The picture show here is taken from the Rocky Corner Soap Works page.

Scents:
Garden Mint - I love this scent!  It's a great combo of mint and greenery.  Very nice!
Moisturizing Skin Care - This has a very clean and fresh scent.  The best part, by far, is how NICE it feels against your skin.  It's like using a lotion more than using a soap!
After The Storm - I usually don't like products scented in the storm/rain scent because they tend to just smell like strong laundry detergent to me.  Not this one!  This is the closest thing to smelling like a storm that I've ever had.  It's amazing how authentic it smells!
Sea Island Grapefruit - Now, THIS is a great grapefruit scent!  If I'm not mistaken, this is the scent that replaced the old grapefruit and peppermint bar that I did not care for.  This is much improved.  I love the grapefruit scent because it is so uplifting and refreshing.
Fresh & Honeydew - I won't go over this one again because I've previously reviewed it.  Definitely one of my favorites!
Pomegranate and Peach - This is another great scent.  These two fruits go very well together!
Cucumber Melon - Anyone who has tried the cucumber melon scent from Bath & Body Works will have a good idea of how great this bar of soap smells.  Another great scent for summertime!

Overall Experience:
I am so grateful and happy that Rocky Corner Soap Works took it upon themselves to send me out this sampler pack.  I now chalk my previous experience up to circumstance.  Everything that I've been lucky enough to try out so far has not only smelled great, but been so much better on my hands than the cruddy soap from the store.  I also LOVE the fact that this soap is not tested on animals and I know that I could never go back to store-bought.  I'm a RCSW customer for life :)

Sugar & Spice Gourmet Soy Candles!!

My Sugar & Spice order came!!  I'm so excited about this one.  Up until recently, I've had more bad than good experiences with soy.  I've found one or two companies that did a great job....but the majority seemed to be quite a bit less quality than companies using paraffin, etc.  I had pretty much sworn off ordering more soy.  BUT...a Facebook page I frequent called "What's In Your Burner" listed a great free shipping sale from Sugar & Spice.  I can rarely say no to free shipping!!  So once again I dove into the world of soy, and I am very glad I did!

Scents:

 ~ 7.5oz candle in an adorable, traditional canning jar.

Melonade - This is a great scent!  It's a combination of watermelon and lemonade.  Perfect for the summertime!  The throw from this little canning jar is very impressive.  I wouldn't have thought such a small melt pool could scent such a large area of my home!  I'm also loving the pretty pink color.

~ 1oz Soy-blend melts

Caramel Apple Cashew - Delish!!  This smells amazing.  You can distinctly smell each ingredient, and they blend so well with each other.  It reminds me of some tasty treat you can get at the fair...but I just can't put my finger on it!

 Bamboo & White Grapefruit - I didn't particularly care for this scent.  It's more of an earthy/spicy smell (which I didn't expect from the name) and that's just not really my taste.  However I know for a fact that my mother will go bananas over this one so it will definitely be a nice surprise for her!

Verbena Berries - Wow!  This is another great scent.  It's a little hard to describe, but the one word that keeps coming into my head is juicy!  Loving this one, for sure.

Pumpkin Cinna Vanilla Crunch - I was a little nervous about this one because I definitely have trouble with the cinnamon smell.  I'm honestly not sure if it bugs be because it's too harsh or if it's because I'm allergic to the real thing and tend to associate the smell with not-so-pleasant experiences.  Either way, not my favorite.  HOWEVER...I popped this one into my melter and was pleasantly surprised.  The pumpkin and vanilla seem to really mellow out the cinnamon and make this a great scent.  Very creamy.  This would be an amazing Fall smell!

Mochaccino - I absolutely love this one and am so sad that it's on her closeout list!  I'll definitely be ordering this in a bigger candle soon.  It's a delish belnd of coffee and chocolate.....seriously what could be better?  GREAT smell and the throw from this little 1oz was incredible.  My entire home smelled heavenly. 

~ 2oz Soy-blend melts (NEW from Sugar & Spice)

Blue Hawaii - Oooh lala!  Ya'll know I love my tropical scents and this has to be in my top 5 tropicals!  This is such a perfect smell.  It is just like a sweet, fruity, creamy drink!  One sniff and you'll feel like you got dropped on a white beach somewhere!  My favorite scent of this order :-)

Blackberry Fizz - This isn't something new to me, as I've tried it from a few other vendors.  It's a great, uplifting scent and if you like it from another vendor, this will smell just as good!

Frosted Pumpkin Cookies - I'm just absolutely in love with this one!  It's a mixture of sugar cookies and pumpkin (if I'm remembering right).  It couldn't be a better scent for fall....or anytime, really!  The only tiny little thing I would change would be adding more cookie than pumpkin to give it a little bit more creaminess.  This was a tester that was included so it will be interesting to see how she tweaks it!

Twilight Woods (type) - This is one of my favorite scents from B&BW.  I was so excited to test this out for Shanna.  Her version is just slightly different than the B&BW version...but certainly not enough to be a bad thing at all.  I'm probably more able to tell the difference because I had a bottle of B&BW lotion on hand to compare it to!  Overall it smells amazing and it's a definite re-order for me!

~ 6oz Soy-blend crumbles (NEW from Sugar & Spice)

The 6oz bag of crumbles came in an adorable cello bag with her painfully cute label on the front!  They are white with REAL sprinkles!! The scent was cake batter ice cream, which I ordered as a suggestion from a review on candlefind.com.  Oh goodness...this is heaven.  It's such a creamy, delicious smell that you won't even believe your nose!  My only TEENY gripe is that it definitely isn't a huge thrower.  This is never really a problem for me, as my living room is pretty small.  But if you've got vaulted ceilings and multiple floors, you might be better off burning this one in a smaller room of the house.  Overall this is a great product that I am so happy she added to her site!

Performance:

I could NOT believe the scent throw of everything I got in my order!  That little candle threw like a great, big jar and even the little 1oz tarts scented my entire house for a good 9+ hours. The fact that I'm impressed says a lot because I'm VERY critical when it comes to soy  My past experiences have not all been great.  Sugar & Spice definitely passed the test!  

This is a great company that you need to check out!  The customer service is great and her TAT is pretty darn impressive, as well!  Please make sure you stop by her site as well as her Facebook Page to keep updated on new products and sales!

Out Of The Box Sampler!!

My new Out Of The Box Sampler came in today!!  It's just like Christmas morning.  If any of you haven't heard about OOTB, listen up!  This is a very fun company that everyone should try at least once!  Vendors from all over send in their samples to OOTB.  They are then packaged up and delivered to your house for $22.50...including shipping!  It's a great way to find vendors you never knew about, and an even better way to try out vendors you've been considering, but haven't made the leap yet.  I'm going to be going over everything I received in this month's Beach Themed Box.  Simply click on the company name to be directed to their site!

There are still a few boxes left so if you like what you read...head on over to OOTB and get your box now!  (This photo was borrowed from the OOTB facebook page.  Please stop by there as well!)

**FYI - My camera is having some issues so all these pictures are looking a little blue.  Sorry about that!**

Virga Botanicals
From this company, I received a generous 2oz sample of cooling face mist and toner in lavender green tea.  This is a GREAT product!  I've already tried it out and it feels amazing on your face.  I will definitely be ordering some things from Virga Botanicals in the near future!


TLC Inspirations

"What are YOU looking at" is the graphic included on this adorable novelty pin.  There's a cute little critter on the front with big ole eyes!  This is an adorable little pin and he's definitely going in my collection.

Angies Raggedy Patch
Choco-Tootsies Chocolate Foot Bath - Cause' feet love chocolate too...  How neat!  This is such a cool product.  It's a foot bath scented in chocolate.  What could be better?


The Pink 'Dillo
From this adorably named company I received a cute, prim little refrigerator magnet!  A girl can never have too many magnets and this little cutie is already on my fridge!

Naturally Lela
Now this is cool!  I got a sample of the Namaste Mini Buffins.  One side of this organic sugar and beeswax foot buffer will soften, and the other side will smooth.  Shaped like a delicious treat!

Lotion Bar Cafe

This soap sample is scented in Miami Slice and it is heavenly!  It leaves your skin soft and clean!

Capricorn Soap Company
From this company I got two samples!  One, a great little bar of soap made with olive oil and the other, a oatmeal & honey moisturizing body lotion.  Great products!

Petite Paperie
This is a beautiful, hand crafted card with envelope.  It has a life-like ink image of a crab...fitting with the beach theme from this month's box!

Ugly Duckling Designs
There's nothing ugly about this tart sample!  It's in the cutest little shape of a flip-flop, scented in Summer Splash.  The scent is just as amazing as the design! 

Jodis Craft Emporium
This sample is a little heart shaped, soy tart in French Vanilla.  Yum!  I can't wait to melt this one :-)

Rocky Corner Soap Works

Getting this soap was a little eerie!  I had ordered a full sized bar of soap from this company after getting my last OOTB and loving it.  They send along little samples with every order and I got a sample in Fresh & Honeydew.  I ended up loving it even more than the full sized bar I ordered and was getting sad because my samples was almost gone.  Then today I open up my OOTB and what is there on top?  A full sized bar of Fresh & Honeydew!  Crazy!  I'm so excited....this company makes some great soap and you should check it out!

Rhoda Rose

Man, that lady can make some tasty treats!  I got a sample of her chocolate covered graham crackers and, well...it's already gone!  Yum-tastic!

Country Keepsakes
Yay!  Tart samples!  I got a heart and a star scented in Strawberry Margaritas.  Perfect for summertime!

CleanQueenSoapCo!

These sugar cube scrubs in Watermelon Bubblegum are to die for!  Perfect scent and really neat product.

Shearwater Falls

Not only did I get a very neat sample of healthy Skin Scrub, but they also sent along a great brochure, detailing all of their products. This was a great idea!  I'll be checking their site out, for sure.

A Penny For Your Thoughts
This company sent along a beautiful greeting card and tag.  They are themed with the patriotic/4th of July colors and just absolutely beautiful.  There's even some included star confetti!

Three of a Kind Crafters
This is yet another generous sample provided by a great company!  Two soap products were sent including a basil lime organic body wash and soap bar.  These smell great and came in adorable packaging.

SBS Teas
I'm a huge tea fan, and pretty picky about what I drink.  SBS Teas hits the mark every time.  This sample was of Mango Green Tea and even came with a seeping bag to use.  Very good tea and very thoughtful packaging.

Sweet Candleations
Oh...my....gosh!!  This is the cutest candle I've seen!  It's a little mini key-lime pie!!  I don't even want to melt this because it's so darn cute!  But on the other hand it smells so good....how can I not melt it?

Not your Mama's Mix

Oh yum!  This creative little product is a double chocolate-chocolate chip mug cake mix.  You just throw this in a mug, add an egg, throw it in the microwave...and bam!  You have a super tasty cake to eat right out of the mug!  I can't wait to mix this up!


Well, that's it folks!  Those are all of the great products I got in my OOTB sampler.  Please make sure to stop by and check out these vendors as well as OOTB to get your box!  You should also check out the OOTB blog page for cool giveaways INCLUDING some from Rocky Corner Soap Works and Country Keepsakes!  If you have any questions, ya'll are welcome to email me or leave a comment!

Happy melting!

New wax from Front Porch Candle Co!

I was recently given the opportunity to test out the new wax blend from Front Porch Candle Co!  I received my candle in a 12oz Apothecary jar with an adorable black lid that rests on top.  The label on this candle is absolutely GORGEOUS!  It is a beautiful picture of a front porch, out in the country.  It couldn't be a better representation of down-home goodness!  (I apologize about the quality of this picture.  My camera is on the fritz!)

Scent:
My candle was scented in peppermints.  This is a very authentic smell.  A lot of people lean towards burning this scent only around the holidays, but I enjoy it year-round!  Rather than looking at it as just a Christmas scent, I view it more as a spa/relaxing type aroma.  Either way, this is a great scent choice that I recommend.

Throw:
I LOVED the quality and strength of this throw!  It's a small candle but it surely packed one heck of a punch!  It scented my entire living room as well as my hallway and parts of my bedroom.  I was very surprised at how much this little thing threw!

Burn quality:
This candle did very well.  It melted quickly to produce a large pool.  There was NO smoking or soot issues whatsoever.  The only little flaw I can find is related to the jar.  I've never been a huge fan of the Apothecary style, mostly because it seems like they have issues with evenly burning across the top.  This one was much better in that regard, and I attribute that to the quality of this new wax!

Overall, I think this new blend of wax is a hit for Front Porch Candle Co.  You should definitely give it a try!  If you're not ready to make a huge order commitment, you can order one of the Out Of The Box samplers this month because Front Porch is included!  It's a great way to try out several different vendors and get to know companies you might never have come across!

Please take some time to visit Front Porch today!  They also have a great message board that is worth checking out :-)

Happy melting!

Mini Review from Candles By Lucy!

Recently, Candles By Lucy had a killer sale that I couldn't pass up...even though my wax budget is getting dangerously low :)  As a result, this is just a small order.  However, even though it's small, it's a great indication of how neat this company is and I will definitely be ordering from her again!

Appearance: My 10 pack of tarts came wrapped up in a cello back with a nice, easy-to-read label and a ribbon tie.  The individual tarts each came in a small bag with the same label.  Everything was very adorable and packaged in a pleasing manor.

Scents: While I only got 3 different scents, I was very impressed with them!

• Strawberries and Champagne - This was on sale as part of the clearance section.  I'm so sad to find out that this is being discontinued!  This is a great scent.  I wouldn't say it smells like fresh strawberries mixed with champagne, but more like the strawberry flavored champagne.  My only gripe is that it's a very soft scent so if you have large rooms to scent, this might not be the one for you.
• Hawaiian Tropic Suntan Oil - Oh yum!  Ya'll know how much I love my suntan lotion scents.  This one is DEFINITELY in my top 3!!  It's a perfect combo of suntan oil and fruit.  I can definitely pick up on some banana.  This is great.  I will be re-ordering this one for sure!
• Cinnaberry - I've smelled this one a bit...but not too much! (Cinnamon allergy bothers me)  But for all you cinnamon lovers, this is a perfect Christmas time scent!

Overall Experience: I had a great time ordering from Candles By Lucy!  The customer service was very good and TAT was very impressive, especially considering it was during a sale!  This is another great company that I would recommend!  Make sure you check out her Facebook page, too!

More goodies from Nana's Just Tarts

Nana's Just Tarts, Home of Nana's Meltin Muffin Tarts!!


That's right!  Another FABULOUS order from Nana's!!  The last order I placed was for a suntan scented tart, and it was dead-on perfect!  This time around I decided to order a little more variety so everyone could get a taste of how wonderful this vendor is!!

Appearance: As always, Nana's tarts are just the cutest things!  The packaging is so adorable!  Each tart comes individually wrapped with a neat little business card, attached by some homespun.  Her 1oz tarts are nice and big!  Even bigger than most other vendor's "1oz" tarts.  I ordered a couple Meltin Muffin tarts...since that's what she's famous for!  These things are super cute.  The look exactly like a real muffin and have a chunk of corresponding fruit stuck in them!  And did I mention these suckers are BIG?!  I also ordered a pie sampler and these are possible the cutest things I've seen!  My camera does not do it justice, so make sure you stop by and check it out for yourself!

Scents: (Please be prepared for overuse of the word "Yum!")

• Meltin Muffins (Pineapple) - Oh this is to die for!  A yummy, authentic muffin smell combined with a perfect pineapple.  Thank goodness I can't actually eat this or my waistline would be in trouble!
• Meltin Muffins (Strawberry) - This is just as yummy as the first muffin.  Same scent, but with a delicious strawberry in place of the pineapple.
• Meltin Muffins (Vanilla Butter Crunch) - All you vanilla lovers out there...LISTEN UP!!  You absolutely must try this!  Wow!
• Sun & Sand - This is a tart that Nana's was super nice enough to send along for me to compare to the Sun & Sand candle from the Y* company that shall remain nameless!  I definitely wouldn't say this is a dupe of that scent, but believe it or not...I like this BETTER!  This is amazing.  A perfect, beachy scent that's out of this world.  I think I'm going to melt half of this with half of my Coppertone tart!  Ooooooh....
• Mango Berry - This tart is unbelievable.  Mango is one of my favorite scents, but a lot of vendors don't make such a great mango scent.  This, however.....perfection!
• Red Current - Ok, now this is just insane!  How can each tart be better than the last?  I think there's some kind of magic involved here.  This scent is great!  It's a perfect mix of something sweet and something tart.  Right up my alley!
• Smores - Chocolate and marshmallow...what could be better?  I almost get a little spice as well.  I can already tell that this one is going to get even better when melted.  I can't wait!
• Pie Tart (Lemon Meringue) - Uggh, I wanna eat this!!  It smells amazing and completely authentic.
• Pie Tart (Coconut Cream) - I just love coconut.  And then when you add a bakery/creamy smell?  Woo hoo!
• Pie Tart (Blueberry) - Blueberry usually tends to smell a little fake. Not this one!  Wow.  
• Pie Tart (Strawberry Rhubarb) - In real life, this is my all time favorite pie.  Surprisingly, this tart lives up to my expectations...which is NOT easy to do!
• Pie Tart (Peach) - I can't get over how strong this is.  I love peach, but it's naturally a lighter type scent.  Not this puppy!
• Pie Tart (Cherry) - This one smells more like a black cherry than the standard red cherry.  I like it a lot better this way.  It gives it more of a tartness.  Very yummy!

• Pie Tart (Hot Baked Apple) - Because this one has cinnamon, I haven't been able to review it.  However if it's even HALF as good as any of her other pie tarts, I know it's amazing.  CONTEST TIME!!  If you place an order with Nana's Just Tarts, send me an email with your name and order number.  You will be entered into a drawing to receive two of these super cute Hot Baked Apple Pie tarts!!!  Hurry, contest ends soon!  Winners will be announced on our Facebook Page!

  Overall Experience:

I just can't say enough good things about Nana's!  Everyone should give them a try!  If I hadn't been on Etsy, searching for a Coppertone scent, I would have never come across them.  Because of that, I'll do my best to make sure everyone I know finds this little gem!  The customer service is beyond anything I've had before.  You won't find a nicer, more accommodating seller to work with.  The TAT is outstanding, and the tarts themselves are out of this world.  Give Nana's a try today and remember to enter our contest!

Angel Made Scents

Wow.  That pretty much sums up my experience with Angel Made Scents.  It has been awhile since I was this thoroughly impressed with every aspect of a vendor.  I will be singing the praises of AMS to every person I know!!  Please read on for the review:

Apperance: Super cute!  Everything has beautiful labels and taffeta ribbons.  It has a very cute, down-home feel.  All the tarts were packaged in a checkered bag that would be just PERFECT for gift giving!  Tarts came in clear cups and my candle was in a 16 oz mason jar.  It even had matching glitter on the top!  I can't get over how cute this whole order was!

Scents:

• Herbal Dreams (Herbal Essence type) - This is a scent I was lucky enough to get included in my Out Of The Box sampler.  It smells exactly like the original Herbal Essence shampoo!  However, it is not a soapy type scent.  It's just a clean, nice scent that is by far one of my all time favorites!
• Moonlight Path - Now, I'm not sure if AMS was going for a dupe of Bath and Body Works...but this nailed it!  I can't believe how dead on this scent is!  I'm so impressed!
• Eucalyptus Spearmint - This is another scent that couldn't be more perfectly exact to that of Bath and Body.  I've ordered the Eucalyptus Spearmint from many, many vendors and they all smell just like Wrigley's Spearmint Gum.  This one, however, is finally the match for the Stress Relief line from Bath and Body.  I'm ecstatic for this!
• Sweet Pea - This is another perfect dupe for the Bath and Body scent.  I don't know how they do it!!  No other vendor I've ever ordered from has come even half as close as AMS!!!
• Blackberry Zucchini Bread - This was included as a free sample.  It is not something I would have ever ordered so I'm glad it was thrown in!  I like this on a lot!  It's a very complex bakery scent and the blackberry and zucchini go perfectly together.
• Blackberry Fizz - I love this one, too (You're shocked right?).  It is a delicious, fizzy concoction that is perfect for these HOT summer days.
• Pink Sugar Bean - This is another free sample.  Ya'll know I'm not a pink sugar fan...so when I tell you that I actually liked this one, you know it's good!  It's more of a soft sugar scent rather than that super sweet scent that I don't like.  Very nice combo.
• Energy Spa - Last, but certainly not least, is Energy Spa.  This one is hard to describe unless you know what the scent of "relaxed" smells like!  This is such a calming scent that everyone should have to melt when it's been a particularly stressful day!

Overall Experience: Again, I say, "Wow!"  Angel Made Scents is very, very quickly becoming my favorite vendor...and you know how picky I am!  Customer service was out of this world and the products themselves were unbelievable.  If you love wax....PLEASE stop by AMS and give them a try!  You should also check out the Facebook Page to keep up to date with sales and new products.

Contest:  Right now, if you place an order with AMS and post a short review on my Facebook Page, you will be entered in a giveaway contest!!  Now is a great time to try them out because new customers get 40% off and FREE shipping over $25!!  How could you possibly beat that?!?
