Scentsy BRICK Warm Reviews Spring 2023

[@michaelhudecek2778]

😊😊😊😊😊

I've had Beach Daisy in my club for years. Because it's so light, I melt one cube in a separate warmer of Fresh Cut Daisies which elevates the scent for the whole space. 😊

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Great tip! I’ll try and do that as I have Fresh Cut Daisies in my club

[@BarsBrickswithBrandi]

I agree with you about Summer Berry Melon. I wasn't overly impressed on cold but on warm I really liked it and it moved up high on my list!

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Yes it improved for me warming

[@Martha_FragranceCorner]

I appreciate your reviews of each scent. It was so, so hard to not be tempted by the early access bricks when I kept seeing hauls of them. Now that I got through that temptation period, I'm glad I didn't cave. I will be adding a few to my next club order so that I can try the bar and see if I decide that a few are brick worthy for me and my scent preferences. I was able to smell them all at Scentsy World Tour, and the one I liked a lot on cold is Pink Apple & Nectarine. I also liked Beach Daisy and I was able to get a sample, but as you said it was not a great performer. I used it in my bedroom and I could barely smell it. On cold I also liked Cucumber & Catcus Water and also was able to get a sample of that one, and it's too much of a shampoo smell for me to have a brick off. I think I would only warm that in the bathroom. Thanks for sharing

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

I think getting the scents in bar form is fair. If you find a love then jump in for the brick

I am now officially excited for Summer Berry Melon, specifically for the possibility of reuniting with the Strawberry Shortcake gang. My older sisters had the dolls and their pets, but I didn’t play with them until they were handed down sometime later. The scent was much lighter by then, but still so fantastic!❤ The glisten in your eyes while explaining that experience was contagious.

[@sarahbarkley5259]

I adore that scent as well and have been trying to find it ever since. The closest I’ve come so far has been Berry of Paradise from bbmb last year.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Do you want to know the odd thing? I only had that scent association once from Ryan’s room. I didn’t smell it since! I think it was the “walk in and smell it moment”.

[@CharitySRose]

Great reviews. Can’t wait to try them. The only one I have tried is beach daisy.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Hope you like them Charity!!

[@bethferrington3247]

I’ve heard Pink Apple and Nectarine reminds people of Luna and I can see that. It reminded me (on day 2 of warming) of the same feel I get from Hundred Acre Wood and I really like it! Hoping it cures stronger. Overall they are all pretty nice but probably none are club worthy for me. I’m enjoying them though! Thank you for your thoughts, I loved Strawberry Shortcake dolls and Sugared Strawberry reminds me of that so I love that one! ☺️

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

I think if Pink Apple & Nectarine was a touch stronger it would’ be a hit If someone has a lot of warmers in a space and they use all of them it might seem strong,’but I don’t do that

[@AngieRiddle-td8gd]

I really loved Pink Apple and Nectarine. It performed great for me and I loved the way it smelled. I got 3 good days out of it.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Terrific!! That was a nice one but I’m hoping for it to get a touch stronger for me

[@lindah_home_and_scents]

Thanks Patricia I was looking forward to hearing your thoughts on these after warming. I am not a fan of C & C Water but that’s no surprise I’m not keen on cucumber as a scent. It did well though & was the best performer for me. I think it will be a hot weather patio warm for me. Maybe the garage too. 🤣 The others were all pleasant & summery. Orchard By The Sea was my least favourite of the four on scent appeal. I’ll enjoy them but none are repurchases for me at this point.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

It was a nice group but I dont need to repurchase anymore than what I already have. I’m more of a fall winter person and even though I quite enjoyed certain scents I’m trying to reduce my extra wax purchases (when I can!)

[@alimueller2514]

I’m most excited for beach daisy and orchard by the sea!

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Those are going to be the 2 most popular choices I think

[@KiaraLemmone]

I was waiting for your thoughts on these. I am tempted to try all of them. I haven't seen anything real negative on any of them other than being too light. Thanks Patricia.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Hope you find a couple loves

[@lesliea4139]

I eventually took beach daisy out of my club because it is quite light. I just used about 2 older bars in my open layout with another floral (sun drenched petals or something) and it was a waste. I couldn’t really smell it 😢. Did a few brick cubes of the cactus brick today- not my fav scent but it is quite strong. Haven’t done the others yet but I loved them all on cold sniff. Thanks for the review:)

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

I’m drowning in wax so I’ll stick with the bricks I have, but I enjoyed them overall

[@Toretto_the_pup]

I just bought 2 bricks of beach daisy and 1 orchard by the sea and 1 apple and nectar ❤❤. Can’t wait!

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

I think those are good choices!

[@hannahhaddad9565]

Thanks for your feedback on these! I've got plenty of scents that I love in SPITE of their performance already so I'm probably just going to let this set pass me on by. I liked with the winter collection (especially icicles and evergreen, even though it's a catalog scent... I already knew it and per ounce, bricks are cheaper so it was a great deal on a scent that is already a good value/lasts long and is strong). I do appreciate the scents they brought back into the SS catalog though!

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

You are so welcome!

[@marlenellewellyn9987]

im lookig forward to getting some samples and cant wait to smell the Summer Berry one!

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Hope you enjoy!

[@ket4ce]

✨️ I was pleasantly surprised with Orchard by the Sea! I'm going to pick that one up for sure. ✨️Pink Apple Nectarine was very floral perfumey to me. In a nice way... But I wanted it to be more fruit forward. I will stick with Ruby Nectarine. ✨️Summer Berry Melon was very disappointing. It was too light, weird, and inconsistent. ✨️Thanks for sharing 👍🏻 I appreciate you! 🌷🪻

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Sounds like you’ve found a couple good ones

[@sc7991]

:) Great video as always!!

[@nigelsdebbie]

Thanks for the review. I'm excited to try the Pink Apple & Nectarine and Summer Berry Melon. I think our tastes are very similar, which is great because I typically like scents that no one else seems to lol! Although I'm not a fan of melon but from your description, I may like those two and have added them to my Scentsy Club. Oh yeah and Snowkissed Cranberry is among my top five favorite scents!😊

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Hope you enjoy! Give them a warm and let me know your thoughts once they arrive

[@robredman8908]

I never had cucumber and cactus water in wax but I did in scentsy fresh. It's just OK to me

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Yes. Agreed

[@Lifesagifteveryday]

Sugar Berry Melon is very nostalgic to me too. Reminds me of the Berry Kissing Kooler lip balm 😂 I can’t decide if i should get more or not tho. I have so much wax 😫

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Your lip balm analogy is great.

[@Lifesagifteveryday]

@@PatriciaG-NosetoToes ended up ordering more bricks ☺️ not much for fruity scents but Summer Berry Melon is just different than anything I have smelled from Scentsy. I think I would be sad to use up the last brick I have. It’s weird because the scent really is not a love for me but it’s one of those memory scents that just makes me happy. literally got more of all the scents except Cucumber and Cactus Water. I have no self control 😂

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

@@Lifesagifteveryday if I didn’t have so much wax I’d probably get 2 bricks. I’m still thinking on it!! I might get Summer berry Melon and Pink Apple & Nectarine. I do love Beach Daisy and it’s a better performer for me than most, but I have a full brick plus about 3 bars so I’m good. Also considering it’s a bedroom or small type space it takes me a while to use that scent up.

[@brighthousescents8987]

Great review. Always love hearing your thoughts.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Thanks Melanie! I thought this was a pretty good group

[@melissajohnsonhaight5036]

That’s so fascinating you got sea minerals….. I got mostly apple and fresh air with orchard by the sea….Maybe I should try it in another space. I was slightly scared yet hoped for a tiny bit more sea type air… maybe it’s best I didn’t lol…. I also got keep it sassy vibes from pink apple and nectarine 😊❤🙌🏻

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

I felt like with OBTSea I didn’t get an abundance of apple and instead got more salty sea spray/air. Probably because I don’t care for that I guess

[@Toretto_the_pup]

Your comment of keep it sassy for the pink apple one makes me super excited!! I absolutely love that scent!

[@melissajohnsonhaight5036]

@@Toretto_the_pup it reminds me of it so much! I hope you love it! 🥰

[@Toretto_the_pup]

@@melissajohnsonhaight5036 ugh I ended up not liking it. To me it’s a dupe for sweet pea and vanilla. Side by side I can’t tell them apart

[@melissajohnsonhaight5036]

@@PatriciaG-NosetoToes awe I wish I got the salty sea air!! Mine I get apple. I like it but I really wanted salty sea air!! Maybe it will cure and my nose will pick up the salty sea air! I love the ocean! 🙌🏻

[@allisamazingscents7408]

Pink Apple and Nectarine was my favorite but I feel like the name is off; I got a lot of floral from the poppy note in it! Lasted 3 days in my open concept!

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

I got a floral mix. I could smell poppy by itself at the time I was taking the wax out. Yes the name was odd

[@Wolfee1029]

I was most interested in warming Cucumber and Cactus because I love green scents but this one when I warmed it didn't wow me at all. I ended up putting a cube in each warmer of Ariel under the sea (love this one) to make it stand out a little more. I think that was a mistake because the combo didn't mix that well in my opinion. Going to change it out and try the Beach Daisy which hopefully I'll be able to pick up that scent because I've heard it's very light. I have a open concept home with very high ceilings so burning any wax despite how strong it is, is wasted because unless I'm standing over the warmer, I can't smell it at all, so bedrooms and bathrooms are the only places I can burn wax. Thank you so much for this review, like you , I'm not that much interested in fruity scents( I like florals and fresh with the exception of apples and melons) but after your review I think I'll try the berry one after all .

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Let me know how you make out with the ones you end up trying.

[@heidipirouettes]

Do you think the raspberry in Summer Berry Melon would make it too perfumey for a kitchen specific melt? It seems like the only one in the collection I could do that with. I’m pretty picky about only melting foody or beverage scents in my kitchen, as it is a closed off room.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

I think it would be ok in the kitchen. But if unsure grab the bar first via club? I wonder what it would be like mixed with a bakery

[@heidipirouettes]

I was planning on just getting the bars first but started wondering if any of the bricks might sell out before I had a chance to try my bars. Hoping they all stay available so I have the opportunity to buy a brick if I fall in love with any lol It does sound like one that might do well with a bakery or vanilla!

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

@@heidipirouettes I think they will be around for a while just because of the “can get a bar size in club” option

[@nataliecunningham8390]

I'm from Jamaica where we're surrounded by sea, I also lived in Florida and I HATE salty scents. I definitely will not get Orchard By The Sea if it's anything like Vitamin S.....yuck! Thanks for your review on these scents.😊

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Most salty scents I really don’t enjoyI wish I did

[@nataliecunningham8390]

@@PatriciaG-NosetoToes me too!

[@karencarvell114]

Thanks Patricia! I appreciate this review - I might add a couple to my club - just can't decide! I was hoping some for a stronger throw on them...but I think I will like Summer Berry Melon.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Utilizing club first is a great idea

[@KatieParkerSingh]

I'm kind of shocked by your experience with cucumber and cactus water! It's long and strong for me. I have to be conscious of how many cubes I use or I end up having to turn the warmers off haha.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

The two spots I warmed it were both on the larger size. I’m sure in smaller areas it would have been stronger and lasted longer.

[@Barb78Eliz]

Same for me. It’s crazy strong and long lasting in my open area too. Just goes to show everyone has different experiences.

[@rocket3254]

I can’t hardly smell it in the scentsy fresh

[@Barb78Eliz]

@@rocket3254 it was lackluster for me in the Scentsy Fresh as well as the laundry. The Scentsy Fresh smelled like nothing and the laundry the scent doesn't last. But the wax was a complete different story for me performance wise.

[@tinapetry6542]

Does Scentsy do better with lighter scents if cured?

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Some do. If they cure they usually don’t raise substantially

[@tinapetry6542]

@@PatriciaG-NosetoToes good to know, thank you!

[@nadinesalinas526]

To me, light scents belong in a small room where it can be at its best performance.

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

Yes I agree. Hopefully I didn’t say something to the contrary in the video

[@sunflowerrunner8424]

What does it mean for a scent to "cure"?

[@PatriciaG-NosetoToes]

It’s a process by which the scent oils finish the process of binding to the wax and it tends to result in a stronger product. Some people think of it like a soup developing as it simmers hours in a stove, or wine improving over time. I even think of it like if you were to apply a self tanning lotion…it takes time for the tan to develop and darken. Wax can be like that. Vanillas seem to take a while to cure. If you can give a wax some extra time sometimes it will cure to be a bit stronger but not substantially so and sadly not always.
