Okay, I'm thinking of a create a scent but I am not creative at all so I need suggestions for a name! I am almost embarrassed to put the combination out there in case it's really weird and doesn't work, but whatever. I want to combine Raspberry Violet and Marshmallow Campfire. The wax company that starts with an "S" used to have a scent that mixed violets, figs, and marhsmallows and it was amazing. I haven't smelled Victoria's raspberry violet, or marshmallow scents, so who knows if it'll work, and I know fig and raspberry aren't exactly the same but it's the closest I could find. Any name suggestions? I'll let y'all know soon whether it's genius or disgusting, lol.
The only names I can come up with are "Gone Glamping" and "Violet Goes Glamping"

Thanks! That's what I went with. It's funny, I've had this combo in mind for a while and couldn't think of a name. Then I posted this and thought of it, lol.

Yay! Is Marshmallow Campfire just a pure marshmallow scent or does it also smell like wood burning? I think the combination with Raspberry Violet sounds really good and I'm interested in adding this to my list of scents to purchase in the future.

I've actually never tried marshmallow campfire or raspberry violet on their own (ooops!) but I've heard good things about both. I've heard people say that marshmallow campfire smells perfumey. The whole candle smells kind of perfumey, but it could be from the raspberry violet too.

Hi greeneyedgirl , i am trying to find a scent that is like a candied violet scent that my mother loved when I was a little girl .. I'm wondering if Your CAS or The one you're trying to dup smells like that. Victoria's raspberry violet is very close, but it needs to be a little sweeter, a little more candy ish . I'm wondering if the scent that you're trying to make smells like a candied violet. ?

hmmm, let's see... I put it away for a while because it needs lots more cure time, I think so I'll try to remember. It's a very pretty scent, but very light right now. It smells good if I stick my nose in the jar, but when I lit it I couldn't smell it, so I'm thinking it was way too soon. But it was very pretty and feminine, it was sweet but I don't know if I'd call it candy sweet, more perfumey sweet I guess. Candied violet sounds really good! I wonder what else you could mix to get it? Maybe get a few raspberry violet SS and a few sweet ones and try them out? Maybe marshmallow campfire, and I think I read that you tried cotton candy. How did that turn out? Maybe try a vanilla scent, or sugar drops, or pink sugar too?

are you talking about My Wish by any chance? if you are, I'd love to know how this CAS compares yes, wasn't that one beautiful? My Wish is more candy-sweet and stronger. The CAS is pretty but light, and more perfumey. It still has a little bit of a lipsticky smell, so I'm thinking it needs to cure a lot more and I'm hoping it'll be more like it down the road. I still need to try Raspberry Violet and Marshmallow Campfire on their own too. Maybe Marshmallow Campfire wasn't the right mixer, maybe I need a vanilla scent or something.
