Surprise Wax Package


I cannot tell you all how much it makes my day when I receive goodies in the mail! There was so much awesomeness in this box that it didn't all fit into one photo. Of course I had to sniff each and every item and give you all my thoughts. 

Cold Sniff Thoughts:

Beezy Endless Love Type:
This is one of the few VS Fantasies scents I had not sniffed. I don't know how accurate of a dupe this is, but the tart is both fresh/clean and sweet/floral. I don't usually care for scents like this, but it it's very pleasant and super strong.

Southbound Soap Co Cotton Candy Birthday Smoothie:
A lovely and realistic cotton candy and vanilla cake blend. Light.

Potion Dust The Goblet of Fire:
Such an interesting blend! Musky, citrusy, spicy; I can't even identify all the notes but I like it! Strong.

Minerva McGonagall:
Both chocolaty, minty, and a little fruity. This frog shaped Harry Potter themed tart is adorable! Strong.

Haley's Heavenly Scents Pink Chiffon Lavender Birthday:
A strong herbal lavender mellowed by the pink sugar and sweet florals of pink chiffon. I think the birthday cake is overpowered, but it's a very nice blend. Strong.

Blank Label Joy: Not sure what the notes of this one is, but I like it! I get bright, tart, lemon, creamy vanilla, and a touch of fresh laundry. A cheerful and super strong scent. The heart shape is so pretty!

SBS Bas-ice-ball:
Not sure what brand/scent this is, but it's a warm, orange aroma, like Satsuma. Very pleasant and super strong.

Webby's Tarts: Chocolate Strawberry: This nails that super sweet, candy like chocolate covered strawberry type scents, and in an adorable cupcake shape to boot! Very strong.

Waxie Lady Hello Sugar Stawberry Melon:
This definitely has lots of pink sugar mixed with ripe strawberries and melon. It is quite strong and busy, almost overwhelming my nose so that all the scents become dull together. It also has a bit of a waxy, play doughy base note to it. Hopefully this is one of those types of scents that really brightend up when melting. Strong.

VSC GG:
Many people are huge VSC fans; haven't yet placed an order yet, partly because of how quickly they sell out, and partly because most of the sample I've tried have been too powdery/fresh/perfumy for my liking. I would be exited to try some of their bakery blends. GG seems to be a nice slightly powdery rose with hints of fruit. (Just my impression as I don't know the notes.) It's pretty light on cold sniff, but the macaron shape is adorable!

VSC Margot's Yellow Submarine: I seem to get mellow lemon curd, vanilla cake, and hints of powder from this one. Why are all VSC's powdery to me?? Pleasant and moderate.

CFTKR Crunchy Berry Cereal Milk:
Yum! Smells just like a bowl of Capt'n Crunch Berries and sugar milk. CFTKR sweet/bakery scents never disappoint. Strong.

CFTKR Ultimate Berry Cake:
Mmmm... juicy mixed berries atop a funfetti birthday cake; how delightful! Strong.

CFTKR Strawberry Milk: 
Juicy ripe sugared strawberries and cream. She really nailed these blends! Strong.

CFTKR Caramelized Fig & Vanilla Custard:
This tart may be a bit old. The description sounds so good, but I'm just getting a dull play dough base note with hints of dried figs. Sadly I don't really get the caramel or vanilla. Light.

Swanky Lavender Paris:
A lovely, not too herbal, creamy lavender well blended with other sweet florals. Sooo pretty, both the shape and scent!

Swanky Roses On Paris:
A light, creamy rose and sweet floral blend. Pretty, but not quite as impressive as I thought it'd be. Light.

Swanky Lemon Cake Sweet On Paris:
Oooh, a lovely lemon bakery and sweet floral blend with a hint of strawberry. Very unique and delicious! Strong.

Swanky Blue Sugar Pink Sugar Waffle Cone: A gorgeous gourmet blend of equal parts sweet & spicy pink sugar, berry like blue sugar, and brown sugar. Like sugared berries served in a waffle cone. Amazing! Strong.

SGA Hello Lover Waffle Cone Birthday Cake:
Errmahgerd SGA! How I love thee! It's got the fresh, fragrant coconut and pink sugar of hello lover with a perfect sweet bakery cake and waffle cone. Genius! Strong.

SGA Pink Sugar Sleepytime:
A top notch pink sugar and creamy lavender blend. Very mellow and relaxing. Strong.

SGA Cherry Slush Pistachio Whipped Cream Cake:
Surprisingly I haven't tried any pistachio scents, despite them being all the rage. The pistachio in this blend seems to be very sharp, green and nutty, almost overwhelming. Bottom notes of candied cherry and subtle whiffs of vanilla cake. I'm not sure if I love it or not. Hopefully it will calm down a bit when melting.

SGA Florida Citrus and Birthday Cake:
a yummy citrus and bakery blend! Very cheery and summery. Super strong.

SGA Fugi Apple Sweet Lavender Marshmallow:
Wow, very unique! I didn't know if I'd like it, but I think I do. Top notes of crisp, tart green apple, middle notes of sweet creamy lavender, bottom notes of gooey toasted marshmallow. Amazing! Strong.

SGA Blue Sugar Sweet + Creamy:
Wow, the way these blend together is almost a sweet herbal scent to me. Smells kind of like a sweet blueberry tea to me. Very nice and intriguing. Strong.

Whew, I can't believe I got through all of those! Thanks for reading all, and a huge thanks to my waxy friend; I had such a fun afternoon of sniffing! :)
