It would DEFINITELY be..

APRICOT FREESIA!!! </font></font>

I broke off a small chunk from a votive this morning to try in my melt
warmer. The ENTIRE first floor of my house smells so bright and
cheerful-it's like burning sunshine!smileys/smiley36.gif

Thanks, Scent-Sations... You've Done It AGAIN! smileys/smiley32.gif

Yes, Lori.. I will repeat the mantra...

Hi!


Does this one smell more fruity or flowery? Is it anything like the current Freesia?

Hi Penny!

Well, I've been learning that people's "olfactory opinions" can vary quite
greatly.. (For example, I think that Hollyberry has a very strong cherry
undertones, and my BIL smells strong pine!!!)

ANYWAY... MY sniffer detects very little freesia. It is *very* fruity and
tangy for me, and I *LOVE* it! I feel it is in the same family of fruit scents
as the Cactus & White Peach pillar.

I have only used chunks of votive in a melt warmer- which for me seems
to provide an even stronger scent than when the candles are burned. So I
suppose your experience and any one else's may be entirely different.

Did that help at ALL???!!!smileys/smiley5.gif

Thanks Kitt! I know everyone's sniffer is different. I think I'll like it if it's fruity. If I ever get it! smileys/smiley19.gif


That's a good idea: using chunks of votives in a tart warmer. That is much easier than making tarts! I think I'll try that.


Is your warmer electric or do you use a tealight? I only have a tealight one and hate using the paraffin tealights, now that I've experienced something much better.


Thanks!

Well, yesterday here in "sunny" Chicago, we had a "heat wave" of 52 degrees, so I went out and took a great window shopping walk around this great city WHILE IT LASTED!


I am looking out of my window now toward Lake Michigan. umm TOO BAD I CAN'T SEE IT! There is a MAJOR BLIZZARD!!! yikes!


I have the Apricot Freesia burning and I thought of your poeticthread.... This Scent-Sational Mia Bella scent is that....
