I’ve thought about the clamshells vs. bags longevity too and it seems to me that contained wax in general stores better. Whether that be in clamshells, scent shot cups, or candle jars. Think how long you can store a good scented candle. Years! And I’ve found that scent shot cups store really well because they’re contained. Example - I have wax from Kaes in chunk bags that the scebt fades faster than her old scent shot cups. Same formula but a different way of storing the finished product. Same with empire alchemy. I struggle with their bags of wax but man those scent shot cups hold fragrance really well when I tried them years later. Clamshells in ST seem to last longer than the bam bags. These are all vendors I’ve tried and tested.

Hi Lexi! I ran out of time with my November melting basket too. I ended up getting sick and that put my nose out of commission as far as being able to smell things as strongly as normal and got to the point that it seemed a waste to struggle with my smell goods. That got me backed me up on melting, editing, and filming! You know how it goes. SMM Apple Crumble Pie was one of the scents I warmed while I was sick, so I'm not sure that I got the best read on it. I do find it not easy to find a legit baked apple scent that I enjoy. Oh girl, KFS Pumpkin Pie Pound Cake is life.😂 I like to try hyped up scents too. Sometimes it works out, and sometimes it doesn't. It's still cool to figure it out, right? I guess I haven't really thought about whether clams or bags hold scent better over time. Good question! I'm worried too about how much wax I've got to carry over to next year. I have no one to blame but myself. 😥 Girllllll, no snow here in Central Virginia yet... but OMG, it is sooooooooo cold. In the 20s, like the wind is just piercing. Like winter is upon us no matter what the calendar says! I feel like Goose Creek has cut back on their wax melt offerings. I could be wrong, but it seems that way. They did recently have a $1.99 sale, which I was surprised to see, but IMO, there just weren't enough to put together a good order so I didn't. I recently melted RG Cookie Butter Coma and it came off super perfumey to me. I'm wondering if I got the wrong scent. It was in a sample bag just like yours (I didn't order it), but I was shocked at how body care it smelled to me because I was totally expecting gourmand. I'm scared to try Deer Camp because of the dirt note.😂 My tree has been naked, just lights, since this past weekend. You want to come decorate it for me? 😂 Can't wait to see your December melting basket!

Ahh man I totally get it! Isn't it crazy how getting sick is extra annoying for us wax lovers?! Like come on nose, we have wax to melt! 😂 Oh my gosh that sounds so cold! 🥶 I hope you stay nice a warm!!! I'll happily come decorate! Give me some Christmas tunes and a cup of cocoa and I'm there! 😄🎄❤️ I enjoy decorating once I find the time! 🤪 Please tell me you get it! 🙈😂

@ I finally got the decor mostly done. Found out that I’m out of the batteries I need. I’m such a flake. Well at least the tree is done. Did you finish yours?!

Anything with spice tends to do that for me too. Once all the sweet creamy notes disappear I agree I’m out 😂
@twoquickwicks3025Ай бұрын
😂🤣 I can only handle the spice this time of year...and even then, I prefer them to be subtle!

I can't do spice with bakery scents 😅😅 the spice takes over.

It does tend to do that 🙃🤪

I had the same issue with pumpkin pie pound cake by KFS I had to destash it. It reminded me of zucchini bread too much..

Ok! I'm happy my nose didn't go totally rouge on me! I thought it was odd that I picked up on a zb note but I'm relieved I'm not alone!
