Chatty Scentsy EMPTIES (October 2024)

[@texaschic84]

I totally agree about the bricks being return scents and the scents of the season being new scents. I wish they would let the consultants vote on 10 scents for the catalog or limited time offers.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

A brick is a lot of wax but if you know it’s a current or past love I’m sure people would be more willing to take the plunge

[@tammytolbert5499]

I’m over Bricks 😂 I have so many even from 6 yrs ago that I haven’t touched! I would rather have a grab and go with what I feel is a better performance than the bricks. The ONLY brick that has ever been stronger than a bar was Pumpkin Roll 😮😂

[@tammytolbert5499]

Sweet Plum Pastry and Banana Bread are 2 that I get Nothing from 😂😮😢 I agree with you on the Bricks and SOTS! I want some really loved and missed bars back more often either LTO or Catalog!

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

I must say, I’m a bit more free handed with wax when I use bricks.

[@lindah_home_and_scents]

Loved this chatty video! I had only warmed Maraschino Sugar Cookie once - several years ago back when it came as a sneak peek in a whiff box. This year I purchased a discounted brick bundle offered through a sale I think & that scent was one of them. I just warmed some & I’m with you. Very cloying & in-your-face. I’m going to have to figure out how to tap it down. I also could not smell Apple Cherry Strudel. My club shipped on the 26th & I threw the brick scents in there. I really don’t like taking a chance on huge bricks. I usually only really like one or two. I would rather they included ‘tried & true’ bars in brick offerings. I’d love to see Apple Butter Frosting or Hazelnut Frosting or Marshmallow Mint in a holiday brick.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

I’m surprised they don’t bring back a beloved scent or two from the past for the bricks.

[@JourneyingwithLaura]

I do agree it makes sense to have 2-3 favorites in bricks and more newness in Scents of the Season. Imagine the sales they would have if they brought back a couple bakery favorites to the holiday bricks! (Sweet Plum Pastry 😉)

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Yes if they brought back some of those discontinued fall winter scents that they don’t seem to want to offer in BBMB voting..,

[@lynnallen7430]

I would prefer to see some bricks from retired popular scents like apple butter frosting, almond croissant, marshmallow mint, etc and then choose two popular ones from the catalogue like a brick of Silver bells or winterberry apple tea, etc . Scents of season in regular bar size is fine ..a Brick is a financial commitment, so knowing beforehand that it is one I will love would be my preference. Thanks for another great video.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

I've heard a lot of people say that they'd like to see more retired scents in brick form

[@allisamazingscents7408]

I agree, give a couple brick spots to scents that have earned it and are loved and put all the new scents in SOTS. A full set of new scents for bricks is more of a gamble and commitment when you don't know if you will like the scents. Great empties, TFS!

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Yes - very much a gamble, especially for the average consumer

[@GinaD367]

Yes, I agree. A mix would be wonderful. Great empties video. Take care😊

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Thank you Gina

[@tracyfulmer6509]

I totally agree with you on Maraschino Sugar Cookie. It makes me (and my family) nauseous. I’m actually thankful that I finally know of someone else who doesn’t like it!! 😂😂😂 Love you and your videos. You’re the best! ❤

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Agreed - the last time I warmed MSC it was by far the worst it had come across of all the times I’ve warmed it (hopefully that made sense) So happy to be done with it

[@jills9038]

I also dislike that one even mixed. It’s horrible. I don’t think I’d throw much scentsy in the trash and that one’s pretty close to going there 😂

[@Mariakayc]

Watching all your videos as a friend has some extra wax she’s trying to sell. Thank you for the great descriptions

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

You're very welcome! Let me know if you have any questions.

[@pinkwerebunny]

I agree that bricks should be primarily past, well loved scents. The new scents can be introduced through Scents of the Season. I'm not going to buy a brick if I dont know that I'm going to love it! I might take the risk with a regularly sized bar though.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

I agree with you.

[@LeticiaWorboys]

I think I'd prefer well loved scents to come in brick and newer scents in the scents of the season like u suggested. Ive only purchased 2 bricks this season because I just don't want to commit to that much wax if I don't like the scent. I may throw it in my club though and try it that way.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

The bricks this year were ok but not any I’ll probably repurchase, unless on a very reduced markdown

[@angelasmeltingmoments3334]

I agree with you on new scents on Scents of the Season and for brick 2 to 3 popular sellling current or recent bars.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

People that’s aren’t addicts want bricks in scents they know are going to be a sure thing

[@ScentsWithAshleyP]

I think I’d like to see old scents return in collections with a couple new, in bricks especially! I think it helps for people who are new to Scentsy or not avid Scentsy users to not feel like scents are around for a limited amount of time and never return or maybe not as familiar with club/not interested in setting one up.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

It’s a tough balancing act for sure. Sometimes I wish I could sit in on their meetings when they are deciding on things. Thanks for watching Ashley

[@christinekeleher3578]

My granddaughter wasn’t feeling very good cold coming in. She is 17 now but she called me and asked if I had an extra bar of the one that smells like Vicks aka Just breath so I drove over gave her couple bars of just breath and another warmer I told her to put one in her bedroom one in her bathroom and that would fill her little basement apt. Her mom said what about me lol.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Haha - cute story! Hope she’s feeling better

[@michellecoish3647]

Thanks for sharing your empties, Patricia. I feel the same way about vanilla amber. I much more prefer very vanilla. I really like ginger cookie crunch, too

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

I feel like Very Vanilla is on the chopping block because most people are buying Vanilla Amber

[@desireeasselinpena]

I would agree with you on qotm. Only kicker would be if a new brick scent was something like ginger cookie crunch lol 🤗

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

I take it you like it too

[@PamNorton]

I definitely would rather have the tested older scents that everyone loves. I am with you on the vanilla amber and churro so sweet scents.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

I am so here for those older scents too!

[@lisapgardner]

Great video as always. You melted some good ones! I agree with you completely on letting favorites return in bricks. (If you ever want to do a swap, I snagged an extra WRM brick and Vanilla Waves) ❤❤

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Oh I’d consider that for sure! It’s too bad on timing because Canada post offers a free shipping package once a week every Tuesday for October and I only used 2 weeks out of 4

[@lisapgardner]

@ oh darn!! well if it ever shows up again (or even if it doesn’t!) let me know 🤗🤗

[@christinesmith7810]

I like your idea about bricks. Love your chatty videos

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Thanks Christine

[@penney1307]

Jack’s obsession is my SIL’s favorite bar that my daughter has warmed. I bought the dupe from L3 last year & let it sit about 6 months before I had her try it. She actually prefers L3’s. It performed better for her so I need to request it so hopefully I can grab some to put up till next fall.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

For some reason it makes me sad when a vendor dupe is preferred over the original. I can’t verbalized why. I’m trying to and it’s not making any sense 🤷‍♀️

[@penney1307]

@ Oh I get it. I agree. She mainly uses scentsy so I was surprised to hear it.

[@juliebngracieandolive6750]

Love your chatty videos! …Festivey is now officially a word. 😄😄

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

It's my new favorite word too!

[@janemac6084]

Interesting question (s) …made me think as in Uk we don’t get access to bricks other than the Seasonal ones (Christmas ) (summer) so I’m grateful when we get any to choose from 😂 but yes I agree I would love to be able to get a brick of Cranberry and Tinsel for example but then have new seasonal brick to try as well ….the scents of the season bars I would prefer all be new. 😊 .

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Do the bricks seem to sell well in your region Jane?

[@janemac6084]

@ don’t seem to .. many consultants say they don’t want to spend out on them to make samples on early access but I wait and do an in/out club so I get bars to try .. then if I love them , I’ll add bars to my quarterly club and also buy brick size .. but then I’m just my only customer .. ( and my two daughters ) . We’ve got 2 bricks in clearance at £17 attire mo .. icicles and evergreen and caramel chestnut .. my two favs from the last Xmas bricks so I’m quite happy with that . I’m in a huge happy bubble at mo as my first grandchild was born on Thursday .. Halloween baby . Little boy called Sonny and we’re all besotted with him . Have a lovely Sunday 😊

[@smileshan1000]

No more Christmas Cuddles for me! It's all gone 🥳🥳🥳🥳! Thank goodness! I didn't know that happened when I sent you a message. That's so funny! I miss seeing Hannah Blazon too. I've noticed she hasn't been around in a while. Hope all is ok. Newness in Scents of the Season definitely. Shannon 😊💛

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

It was so much wax to get through! I think we’re both relieved.

[@cmobannon]

Great video! Glad to see your input.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Thanks for watching!

[@hollybradley8911]

Everyone’s noses are different and even scent preferences change over time. I like watching people’s club videos to see what KZbinr’s have similar taste to mine. I love hearing different opinions! 😊

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Yes, good reason to melt scents while you love them.

[@karencarvell114]

Regular size bars for new scents gets my vote. I would also like to see a Bring Back My Brick Vote and have that as LTO sometime.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

It would be nice to see the BBMB returnees soon!

[@eddieubert-independentscen6105]

I like mix of new and old in Bricks and Scents of the Season. I lost Mint to be Merry in my Club. Thankful that I will be able to add it back. ❤ Love that scent, it's my substitute for Vanillamint.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

That’s terrific you are able to get Mint to Be Merry back

[@BigBroDoug]

I quite liked Christmas Cookie. Not quite club worthy but I might pick up a couple. When I smelled it in the whiff box, I thought I would hate it. I wish it was stronger though. Gingerbread Pecan Waffles is my favorite of the new releases. I completely agree of Vanilla Amber. I’m gonna keep my Vanilla Cream. Maraschino Sugar Cookie and my wish might be the only scents we disagree on. I like the bricks and SOTS to be a mix of old scents making a return and news scents. Maybe 3 new and 2 returning. Based on the reviews of the bricks this year, I think I’m in the minority because I’m just ok with the scents and it’s a lot of wax for scents that are just average.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

The bricks this year are ok but I don’t see me repurchasing any either

[@barbaraduvall3910]

Prefer older scents for bricks. Too much wax to risk a scent that I might not like. I use club to get the bricks in bar sized. More likely to get the brick if I knew I already liked the scent.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

I hear ya, it’s a lot of wax

[@sixpacksarah-sjoy]

I want Crimson Berry Christmas to come back, and it seems like Scents of the Season is its best bet. Ha! But more fully to answer your question, I like that they’ve been doing several returning scents for SOTS, because holidays are so nostalgic and most of us like scents we know. I’d like a couple returning bricks, but I don’t expect too many for bricks. But OVERALL, I think returning scents are a good move, especially since the company is supposed to be based on scent memories. And then we get so many new scents in the fall, holiday, and other LTO releases.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Your last paragraph is gold. Exactly

[@AaronandJessica]

I love the idea of having the bricks be popular previous LTO scents. I would love the Scents of the Season to be new scents. It makes so much more sense to do that. ---Jess

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

I guess time will tell if there are tons of bricks in clearance down the road

[@eulaliarios8508]

Hi Patricia, love your channel. I have a brick of Ginger and Spruce, and was wondering if you have any suggestions what I could mix with it. I tried pine scents but the Ginger and Spruce over powers it. Thank you in advance😊

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Gosh that’s a tough one! I assume you want to disguise the ginger. Some people would mix with a vanilla. You could try a citrus )like SUNKISSED Citrus). Maybe just try in a small area first in case the mix is not good.

[@eulaliarios8508]

Exactly. Okay, I will give that a try. Thank you so much for your speedy response 😊😊

[@LeticiaWorboys]

Great empties!!! Unpopular opinion but I'm not a fan of Jack's obsession and sweet plum pastry is just ok to me. 😂😂😂 It amazing me how differently everyone smells things. I love Hallow harvest though!!! Its fabulous!!

[@jerseyshoreliving_NatalieMal]

Same Leticia on both your not alone .

[@michellecoish3647]

Same for me, too! I couldn’t melt Jack’s Obsession and still have a couple bars of Sweet Plum Pastry from the last time it was available in BBMB

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Send them to me!! lol jk

[@kimberlyvieira2133]

Great video. I would prefer the bricks to be new scents, but I would love to see returning past scents such as Very Merry Cranberry or Cranberry Garland, along with existing popular scents. I miss those two cranberry scents, and I think we need a better cranberry scent than Cranberry Cardamom. For Scents of the Season-those can all be new. I received brick samples, and was not impressed at all this year with any of them enough to buy a brick, or even put them in a club. I liked Wrapped in Lights, but I like Holiday Market much better, and it performs great in my open concept.

[@ket4ce]

❤ Cranberry Garland

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

They need a good cranberry

[@kimberlyvieira2133]

@@PatriciaG-NosetoToes They really do.

[@jills9038]

Cranberry garland and very merry cranberry are 2 of my favorites. So much that what I have left here, I almost refuse to use 😜

[@penney1307]

Bricks- I’d prefer retired scents w/ maybe 1 new scent. The bars should mostly be new scents. That would be my preference for sure. Thanks for sharing your opinions!

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

That makes a lot of sense, especially with the bricks, I mean, it is a pretty big investment.

[@angelasmeltingmoments3334]

I am curious to try Wooly Slippers again after not liking it when I didnt like lavender. Now that I love lavender I'm curious to know how it will smell to me.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

I don’t get a lot of lavender so maybe that’s why I like it

[@pamelawalters8337]

I agree with you about bricks because they’re more of an investment.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Yes. A brick can take me 2-3 years to slowly work through

[@juliebngracieandolive6750]

To answer your Q: For me personally, I would rather bricks be known scents as special offer bundle. But it probably doesn’t cause the hype and discussion time new scents in bricks do. I def prefer new scents in bar size. LTO’s are a fun way to try bundles of new scents throughout the year. SOTS as a gift option is good to have some scents we know and a few new to keep it exciting and conversation worthy. 😊

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Excellent points!

[@melissajohnsonhaight5036]

I’m honestly happy with whatever they do. What you say makes sense though. I will say I did think 5 brand new scents was fun vs a brick of something I wouldn’t like. I didn’t think I’d like most so got bricks in bar form through club but ended up wishing I had gotten all 5 new. I suppose I don’t mind because I’m usually happy either way. But at least scents of season you’re only getting bars vs feeling you need to get bricks early access.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

I was able to use host rewards for my Scents of the Season…so I was ok with not having early access!

[@shondimacdonald]

There are a few scents that I cannot smell at all - Churro Churro was one of them. I’d have to consult my spreadsheet to remember the others. I make note so I don’t buy them again. It is such a bummer because they smell good on cold (what little I can smell). I think I would prefer some classics in the bricks and newer in the SOTS. But I usually only ever put bars of bricks in my club to try first because it is a big commitment. 😂

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

I also struggle to smell Ocean

[@jerseyshoreliving_NatalieMal]

I love chatty Patricia💜

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

My husband might disagree

[@ket4ce]

🌾🎃🍁 I would purchase bricks of Almond Crossaint, Apple Smores, Cranberry Garland, and Honey Pear Cider! Also, they should do the same with spring bricks. I would love a brick of Blue Hyacinth, Darling Dahlia, and Hey Tiger Lily. Also, they should just provide a permanent brick of Happy Birthday! Or offer it with the club bricks. 🌾🎃🍁I prefer the regular size wax bars in general. Easier to manage.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

I fear that if people don’t buy bricks they will stop offering them. I hope they consider old faves like Cranberry Garland.

[@saraspillers9865]

I’d prefer new bars in scents of the season. Bricks in best seller past scents.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Sounds like many agree with you

[@lindseyrhynes4072]

I have a tester for Tinsel Berry, and I like it. LOL

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

I think it’s better in wax

[@yolandab8728]

I would prefer bars for SOTS . I did like how they had the couple of bricks in the catalog last year…pumpkin roll and Xmas cottage. I also wish they would change up the bricks in the club according to the season instead of the same ones all year.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

I’ve heard a few people say they want a club bricks switch-up

[@ShannanB-xy3eh]

I would prefer the new scents in Scents of the Season and m9re familiar Scents in the tree bricks. I ordered one brick with the best sounding description that included scent notes that i normally like. That brick however, really disappointed me and sort of makes me nauseous. Wish I had just tried a bar size of it.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Which brick did you get?

[@marlenellewellyn9987]

I cant really say as im still on a no buy. but if i really had to decide, being that a brick is so much wax id like it to be a best seller and change it up for the bars

Luna has been very light for me. My best result was to almost double the wax I use…then I can smell it fairly well but it would seem to last a while. That was in Ryan’s room in my old house. I haven’t tried it in the new place yet.

[@bethferrington3247]

I would definitely prefer retired scents for bricks and am grateful they give us some in Scents of the Season at least. Bricks are awesome but if I’m honest this year’s selection is a little underwhelming. I would faint if they had a brick in Apple Butter Frosting or Snowkissed Cranberry. And it’s ok if you don’t like Maraschino Sugar Cookie ( I forgive you 😉🤣). Everyone loves Arctic Kiss but me so there you go!

[@bethferrington3247]

Also- festivey is a fun new word! I’ll have to use that one!! 😋

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

I do enjoy me some Arctic Kiss. I can’t figure out why they have skipped over certain scents like APple Butter Frosting for so long. Never in surprise bundles either

[@bethferrington3247]

Agree- it’s so weird! It would sell so well

[@patricedalling9846]

I prefer bricks that I know the scents. Maybe one or 2 that are new and scents of the season I would like 5 new bars.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Maybe they bargained that people would take a risk on the bricks.

I would much prefer popular scents returning in bricks. Mint to be Merry would have been amazing in a brick. Scents of the Season should be new scents and if they are big hits, maybe we will see a brick someday. I still question my taste because I’m the only person that loved Cookies for Santa 😂
