Bring Back My Bar Voting is OPEN!! - Ummm, what??????

[@michelleh8387]

Loved your thoughts on BBMB. I'm just a regular customer, not a consultant and I've been buying Scentsy off and on since the start. I'd love for some of the older scents to come back. Hope they keep the 5 year rule. Amalfi Coast is a beautiful citrus scent and not overpowering. Voting for that and some other oldies. Tea Party, Fresh Cut Cantaloupe, Lemons & Berries, Tahiti Pear, Give me Passionflower but these never get voted back so.....

[@happilyscentedlife]

I like the 5 year rule because it does allowed some older scents to come through on the voting polls; but I do miss some of the past BBMB winners that I wasn't able to club. I had an old tester of Amalfi Coast but it lost scent after 10 years lol

[@terri6537]

Okay peeps...we NEED Apple & Oats, Candy Dandy, Central Park Pralines, Luxe Vanilla, Marshmallow Mint, Pistachio Ice Cream, Summer Holiday! I'm actually REALLY excited about this round, Someone needs to let Scentsy know they accidentally put Cherry Clove Chutney and Christmas Tree instead of Apple Butter Frosting and Almond Croissant LOL 🤣

For real!! Those two definitely would’ve gotten votes from me. As for the rest you mentioned, I voted for most of them - bakery lovers, unite!

@@Katie-un1tqI just checked and it’s been 5 years for both Central Park pralines and candy dandy so it’s definitely been a while 😊

[@Katie-un1tq]

@@AprilLeeWaxQueen it's the same common crap that's been available within the last 4-5 years that usually voted back. As a consultant too I would think you would pay closer attention

[@KS.Canada]

was looking forward this video after I scrolled through voting options. I think Scentsy should ask consultants and customers what scents (LTOs included) we want back, and make a voting list of the top 200 suggested scents or at least add some to the list. Thanks for an entertaining video 😊

[@esmeralda456]

Patricia G Nose to Toes tried that and even wrote a letter to Scentsy with a list that everyone commented what they wanted back. If you look the other regions 2,3 have all the scents everyone is stating here they want back LTo’s and favorites. There used to be time Scentsy had for 1 week to vote for top 100 out of 500 bars. Then following week out of 100 it would go down to top 25 or 20. I wish I could say “Hey Scentsy it’s 2025 and your voting options literally feel like Groundhogs Day” The whole concept is BB my bar meaning scents we know and love. You have a whole new generation of customers and consultants voting from scents from 20 years ago that the majority of us never were around and we’re guessing on what sounds good with our votes. That’s why the votes that are winning right now are bars were more familiar with or who consultants or customers comments have shared with us that are good. If Scentsy would only listen it would be such a win win for both. Imagine, clubs and purchases would increase. Anyhow, keep on keeping it real Aimee that’s why I love your channel❤

[@happilyscentedlife]

That's a great idea!! I would love to see what a customer/consultant generated BBMB would look like.

[@happilyscentedlife]

I literally went on a Uk consultant's page and saw all the scents they have to vote on and I am so jealous!!

[@KS.Canada]

@@esmeralda456 I like that the sounds of how they use to do voting. I agree not everyone has been with Scentsy since the beginning and many of the voting choices are ones lots have never smelled, I know I am voting based on what sounds good or I have heard the KZbinrs I follow talk about. I hope that maybe scentsy will hear the frustrations and change things up a bit. I did think it was fun to pick a few bars from the first catalogue, even if Scentsy did some random polls throughout the year to get feedback. I also think if it doesn’t get voted back after 2 rounds it should be removed from the voting list for a round, just to get some new scents added in. I know that they changed things as people were upset that the same bars kept getting voted back so maybe they can revamp again to something that is a blend of what they use to do and the current model.

[@wandarumney6952]

I mean, I have yet to meet someone who dislikes it, unless they just do not like any bakery at all. Also, no almond croissant? Still?)

[@happilyscentedlife]

The lifetime sales criteria has to be what is preventing both of them from being on the list, I cannot figure it out! They would make a freaking killing in sales, its legit a no brainer!

[@michellecoish3647]

Thanks for this, Amy! Please correct me if I’m wrong, but was apples & oats a BBMB 5 years ago? I need to go look in my wax stash and see if I have one. I might be thinking of a different oats bar.. but I agree with you it’s hard to understand how bars available for only 1 year have such a high lifetime sales amount. Would love to see the master list! Haha

Apple Smores was in one of the 2020 BBMB winners. That one piece of criteria is what baffles me the most!!

@@michellecoish3647 that’s such a good point, especially if the sales were high enough to qualify for BBMB, then why did Scentsy drop it so quickly in the first place? 🤔 A master list would be awesome, haha! More transparency would be nice to understand why some scents make it and others don’t. It almost seems like they break their own rules to throw us a bone for certain scents and it’s just so confusing.

[@michellecoish3647]

@@AmandaTheWaxNerd I’ve watched a few videos tonight and multiple comments that some of these bars are always on the list, which I guess makes sense if it’s always the “top 200”, but maybe Scentsy should analyze the votes and if some of these bars every voting session get a small percentage of the votes they should be removed in favour of some others??

Yes, i am totally thankful for the opportunity to get retired bars back too. I always have fun sniffing them and trying them out, as much as I voice my opinion I am still going to participate and try and have fun but its soo dang frustrating when you know certain scents fit the eligible criteria but they never get in the top 200 :( Which one are you voting for the most?

[@Hollieford89]

Some of the scent mixes are off no wonder they didn't stay around 😂

[@happilyscentedlife]

right, very old scent trends for sure!

[@spookycute81]

I don't even take Scentsy seriously anymore when it comes to their BBMB voting. Too many shifty/weird discrepancies with the scents they allow in for voting (based on their own "rules"), and things don't add up when it comes to the winning scents, based on what was in the top 25 spots when voting closes. It honestly feels like they let customers think they're getting a say as to what scents come back, but I think they do whatever they want in the end. It's why I started looking/purchasing from small businesses (vendor wax). Love your videos, they always make me laugh :)

[@happilyscentedlife]

Thanks for watching! At this point, I am not shocked with the errors we are seeing. Let's hope this round we can get at least 5-8 good scents back for people. I think its going to take years to get some of these crappy scents that no one seems to want off the voting list. The unfortunate thing is once some of the past BBMB winners exceed the 5 year rule, some of these scents aren't going to be on the list. It's like a double edge sword with this BBMB promotion, damned to play damned if you dont....LOL

[@AimzP]

I know everyone seems to be excited about this top 25 but I'm not I am so tired of seeing Candy dandy and im kinda over irish cream as well. But I don't know I somehow always end up getting surprised, I would really like to see exotic vanilla, heartbreaker cactus flower lime, Autumn sunrise, Amalfi Coast and berry blush. If I got just one of those I'd be a super happy duck. Honestly after youve been using the company for 10+ years you kinda always feel like the scents coming back are too recent Edit to mention mums and marigolds, mariposa lily. Mystic magnolia abd sage and sweet grass, RUN2ME , and fields of gols are amazing options

[@happilyscentedlife]

Yes, Mariposa Lily and Mums & Marigolds are forgotten florals! Some of the "consistently eligible scents" are getting on my nerve too. I will throw some votes towards the ones you are gunning for! Let's pray we all get at least ONE!!

[@LeticiaWorboys]

Excited about Apple and Oats! Robyn has hyped this one up so much. I definitely want to try it. Summer Holiday is one I want to try as well. Luscious lemon, Irish cream, Luxe vanilla, pistachio ice cream, marshmallow mint, central park pralines and carmel spice sound good too. I love black licorice. I will totally throw some votes to sugar and spice. What happened to perisan lime and sandlewood? 😢 I was going to throw some votes at it for you. I don't understand the way scentsy does things sometimes. 🤦‍♀️

Two cents I am desperately trying to get back, pretty in pink and African mahogany. I have resigned myself to the fact, though that I’m never going to get them back. A few reasons. First of all I am blind, and it used to be that I could go and vote like everyone else, but now the capture pops up for every single time on every single site, I can get an audio challenge, But it adds a 92nd or two minute extra time on every Voting session, that other people don’t have to contend with, and I can multitask sitting in a meeting or something, and Vote, but not if I have to listen to an audio challenge, and then dictate or type in What I hear in that Audio challenge. Back before the capture issue, I voted on my own and with someone’s help thousands of times for a particular scent, and it never once popped into the top 25, and when I did the math based on all of the votes, they said they got, Assuming that every cent that one got at least the number of votes I cast or more, which it would’ve had to do, multiplying that by 25, and figuring in other people voting for other sense, well the math just does not math as they say. They had to either be more votes than they said there were, or my votes didn’t count, or God only knows. And I just don’t have the bandwidth to work on my platform enough to get the followers and the influence to get others to help me vote for the sense. So I’m just resigned myself to the fact that they’re never coming back.

Also one other thing, if they won’t bring back a scent if it hasn’t been in for the last five years and bring back my bar, if we do the math here, if they would bring back $.25, not 20 in every bring back my bar, only the ones that we pick, and if we all systematically voted $.25 off of this list every time, twice a year, that’s $.50 a year, that means it would take four years to get rid of every single scent on this list, that means four years from now everyone in Sensi land would’ve had a chance to add to their club and try all 200 of these cents, and The pool of available sense would include, well it would have to include the ones we want, that aren’t represented here, if all those 200 cents were pushed out of the way, as it were. If we really could get people to cooperate with one another and really do something, there is a way to get through the sense and get to other ones, but I think since he will just change the rules every one or two times, I think a lot of random people who aren’t that much into Sensi, who aren’t posting on KZbin or following KZbin Uber’s, who aren’t really well informed consultants, who just randomly Fluff around, are the reasons that bring back my bar is never going to work quite the way we wish it would. It also occurred to me, that another reason will never see some of the sense here if they’re blowing my lifetime sales, is it some of these things they only pour a limited quantity of wax, for bricks, promotions, for instance, or for a limited time offer, and they don’t plan on pouring more of it, so even if the demand was high, and everyone absolutely adored, descent, if they’re not pouring more wax, then it’s never going to reach the sales necessary to reach their criteria. There’s gotta be a different way to determine the sense that they put in for Voting, I’ve never smelled ace, but I now have a strong bias against it, because it’s always at the top of the list, always, I’m with Amy, let’s all vote for Ace and get it out of here,
