Star of Bethlehem is my favorite Christmas-y scent. I haven't ordered in a while, but I definitely want to try some more pine-y, Christmas tree-ish fragrances this time around. I don't think there will ever be a point in time when I don't love Star of Bethlehem though, so wonderfully spicy. <3

warm christmas splendor is a great scent because theres cinnamon but its nicely toned down with a minty scent ...BUT the minty scent isn't a WAM in your face mint. its very light scent but don't let that fool you it has a strong throw!

This will be my first Fall and Winter with Candles by Victoria too.
I indulged in the August sale with these Fall/Winter goodies, but have't had scent shot testers in all of them.
Comfort Candle: Caramel Gingered Apple Crisp (One of several purchases inspired by Jason's YouTube videos) Baked Apple Strudel in a Mini Bread Pan Apple Jack and Peel in a Mini Bread Pan Scent Shots in Maple Nut Sticky Bun, Cinnamon Raisin Bread, Maple Pecan Streusel, Orange Clove, Spiced Apple Pie, Under the Harvest Moon, Caramel Hazelnut Cream, the new Reese's Banana Nut Bread, Cookies for Santa, and Home Sweet Home. Love, Victoria Glitter Candle in Halo Red and Holiday Homebrew (my scent shot hasn't finished curing yet so this is a gamble) I think Iced Orange Bundt Cake will be great for September. My Halloween candle is a Halo Black glitter cauldron, um tureen with Harvest for the scent since my Witch's Brew scent shot needs more time to brew, uh cure. I believe that anything in Night Blooming Jasmine will be splendid for mature women in Fall and Winter. For my fall Birthday, I got Pink Cupcake.

It sounds like we share a nose! I love cinnamon raisin bread and cookies for santa! Also, I was going to get orange clove and the caramel gingered apple crisp candle during this sale, but decided to wait.
I don't know if you've tried it yet, but carrot cake orange delight is an awesome fall scent. I noticed you like orange scents, so that one is one of my favorites. Iced orange bunt cake is another one I wanted to try, so it's good to hear its one of your favorites.
Let us all know what you think of your purchases! I'm really interested to hear about caramel hazelnut cream, too.

Does the carrot cake come with cream cheese frosting? That sounds great. New Wish List entry! Thanks!

I do get a cream cheese frosting! You get the spicy cake with what to me smells like orange cream cheese frosting. It is really delicious!

Yum!
I plan to pack most of this new order away (after photographing the glitter candles) and not check most of it until about October 5. I'll open a thread about this order and my perceptions about it and add to it as things cure.
I hope for candles in Satsuma and Carnation (from earlier orders) to be ready to use in September.
