Hello, my name is Krystal and I just placed my first order yesterday and am excited to try new scents out. My favorite type of scent is clean or atmospheric (rain, meadows, etc). My second favorite are exotic floral. I'm from Hawaii, so very excited to see there are Hawaii inspired floral candles. I am almost never a bakery/fruity fan.
Any suggestions on favorite scents based on my scent type? I would appreciate any suggestions. I've been reading through the posts and it sounds like you ladies really know your stuff. Thanks in advance!

Did someone say clean scents ;D You spoke my favorite candle language. lol
Yes Gain Island Fresh is amazing, the first time I smelled my candle I wanted to attach the candle under my nose so everywhere I went I could smell it all day. Fresh Laundry, Clean Cotton, Clothesline Fresh are all amazing. You can't go wrong with any of those in my opinion.

Welcome! For clean scents, I like Purely Herbal. I ususally don't like clean scents, but that one has some fruitiness to it that is so appealing to me.

Welcome! One of the first scents I tried was Hawaiian Dream and it's still one of my favorite scents by CBV. The scent throw is wonderful, too.

Welcome! Clean scents are definitely one of my favourite scent categories! My favourite is Fresh Laundry, followed closely by Mango Tango. Gain Island Fresh is quite good too (I'm burning that now!) and so is Lavender and Basil, its more soapy while the others are more detergent-like.
