This Sale order was place less than ten minutes after midnight on July 1 and arrived July 16! I'm hopeless at arrival cold throw discernment, but my two Soap Shots were ready to smell.
Woodwick candle, Christmas by the Fire - gorgeous Christmas red! Already has a good hint of a well kept fireplace. Halo black glitter tureen, I put a Smell on you - seen in the CBV Vlog 19 on YouTube, Halo Black is spectacular, the scent is perfumy so far. 8 ounce jelly jar candle in Pink Noel Baker's dozen in Cinnamon Donuts - August 24 -I melted the overpour slabs from this jar and it smelled like a yummy cinnamon baked good already! Yea for faster curing soft wax! Jar full of buns in Cinnabon Muffin Melts: Pecan pie Caramelized Pralines Harvest Buttery gingerbread Buttercream crunch Night blooming jasmine Scent shots: Buttery caramel Salted caramel type Pink Noel Monkey bread I'll have what she's having Twisted peppermint-soft mint, I'll report back after I lather it up. I'm not excited yet about this one. Minty twist - Spearmint, worlds softer than Cold December Night, somehow this is more pleasing to me than Twisted Peppermint. Room spray: Volcano type Cinnabon Sugar scrub in volcano type
Ordered 7 minutes after midnight July 1 Shipped on July 8!

My Christmas by the Fire scent shot arrived June 28 so it has had very little cure time and is still evolving. Today it has a slightly sharp spiciness to it. It has Cinnamon, Nutmeg and sage, and cedar wood,"tempered by Frankincense and Myrrh." This is not my cheerful traditional daytime Cinnamon, Nutmeg and Clove Christmas scent but I think it will be a cozy comforting spicy scent to light by my fireplace while I read a Holiday book nearby. So the evolving Scent Scot is interesting enough to make me want to order the candle in the followup order.
Oops, There is no Caramelized Pecans (typo), its Caramelized Pralines which seems like a close cousin to Pecan Pie to me. I have ordered a Big Bowl Candle in Pecan Pie and a Designer Bowl (smaller) in Caramelized Pralines because they are Fall/Winter Bakery decadence essentials to me now. They are both buttery yummy deep luscious bakery scents that I can recommend wholeheartedly but I cannot tell you that I am sensitive enough to pick out the pecans specifically. I think these candles will take months to cure so I have them tucked away and haven't checked them lately. I think you should get at least a muffin cup of each to enjoy this Winter, if not candles.

Thank you for describing Christmas by the fire for me! Not the biggest fan of spicy scents but for winter they are nice, I might have to try it.

I forgot to say that the day it arrived I was more aware of a whiff of a burning fire. This promises to be interesting come winter.

You make me really want to try pecan pie. Cinnabon is one of my favorite heavy bakery scents and the scent throw in shot form has some real staying power. I hope the room spray keeps that lasting fragrance.

I already ordered in June so I didn't go for the July sale. Totally bummed! I wanted to go for some winter scents for my next order... I think I'm going to add Christmas by the Fire to my wishlist - I got Frankincense and Myrrh on a recent order and I absolutely love it!

I realized that Night Blooming Jasmine is the first Floral scent I have ordered as a Muffin Melt. All my other Muffin Melts are in bakery scents and brown. I took a video of the glitter but I have to reduce the size of the file to insert it here later. Consider this out of focus snapshot to be a placeholder. Color and Glitter!
