What I've Been Warming & Burning - Wax Empties thru 10/25/24

[@angelasmeltingmoments3334]

Great empties! I'm glad you had a wonderful melting week 😊🥰💜

[@terrys_smell_goods]

Thanks friend! It makes up for an upcoming video where I sort of just had a blah melting week. So sad for us waxie lovers. Thanks so much for tuning in!

Great video. I really liked the empty candIe jar from the Cinnamon French Toast. You could use it as a votive jar for smaller candles too. I struggle to pick favorites too, but it's all in fun. Take care😁💜

[@terrys_smell_goods]

@@misskellymac That’s a great idea for the jar! My daughter ended up stealing this one when I cleaned it out. 🤭 I guess struggling to pick favorites is a good thing, right?! Thanks for watching girl!❤️

Fresh apple orchard is a good performer for me. Enjoy your video

[@terrys_smell_goods]

@@ccscents2103 It is a delicious apple scent. Thanks for watching! ❤️

Hi Terry! I wonder if those Candle Warmers, Etc wax melts are developed to work in their own warmers. I have a couple of those warmers, and they are 25W. Scentsy is usually between 8W and 12W. Maybe check the wattage of your crock...they typically are in the 20-25W range. You could test them in there instead and see if it makes a difference. Thanks for the great video!

@@stepneh Hi there! Unfortunately, it’s the Candle Warmers warmers that I’m using them in. I should have mentioned that. I have three of them in my kitchen where I warm most of my retail wax: the Modern Cottage, the blue Chevron one, and a white one that I can’t remember the name of but it’s a beast performer - love it! I rarely use retail wax in my Scentsy warmers unless they have proven performance and can handle the harder wax (usually the unglazed ceramic warmers). Interestingly, I have heard people say that they get better experience from the CW wax when purchasing directly from the company. Not sure if any truth to that, but I believe there is a YTber on here that mentioned it (one that reviews mostly retail wax). Maybe one day I’ll experiment with it.

Took me like 24 hours lol but I finished the whole video!! Thanks for sharing! Haha

[@terrys_smell_goods]

OMG, it was so ridiculously long. I wouldn't blame you if you skipped around at all! I decided to cut my empties to a week to keep the videos shorter and then I go and work from home and melt like crazy. Insanity. Thanks so much for sticking it out friend!

So I need King Cake? 😂......I wasn't going to order but now ..... I bought my mom the nativity warmer for Christmas and it's the same shape as Sunflowers- hopefully it performs well also! Ty for the video.

[@terrys_smell_goods]

@@minfantino1 I don’t want to be an enabler but oh my I love that scent! I have been going back and forth on that nativity warmer. I haven’t checked to see if it’s still available. I may not get it though because I really have my eyes on the December warmer of the month with the trees. I think that’s going to be a good performer too. And one that I’ll be able to keep out all winter. I think your mom will love it. What a nice gift! I also really love the dog one but I was so sad to see that there is no spaniel on it. So I didn’t order it. It’s supposed to be restocked but I also think it’d be nice if Scentsy did another version (or two) featuring different dog breeds and mixed dogs too!

@ is king cake cinnamon beach

[@minfantino1]

Cinnamon heavy I meant lol

[@terrys_smell_goods]

@@minfantino1 You can certainly detect the cinnamon sugared donuts. It’s a sweet, warm cinnamon bakery note. If you are sensitive to cinnamon scents, you may not enjoy it.

[@minfantino1]

@ ty! This helps. I'm definitely sensitive to cinnamon.

[@jillcentala7097]

Probably a weird question but how would you best describe the zucchini bread scent? I don’t care for yeasty or butter heavy scents either

[@terrys_smell_goods]

Not weird at all. It is so hard to describe, so I get the question totally! I would say, to my nose, it's kind of cakey, but in the sense of like a bakery loaf (not bread bread, but bread in the way of like a pumpkin bread or a banana bread). I don't like fresh bread scents much so it doesn't smell like yeasty bread to me, it's more bakery, but not sweet. It's kind of nutty, and it can be dense or creamy depending on the vendor and oil. I guess the best way I could describe it is that it's kind of like banana bread but without the banana, if that makes any sense. It's a scent note that I think you will either like or hate, and it's easily detectable in blends. Some people smell corn chips when they smell it. I've been lucky that I haven't smelled a zucchini bread that comes off as corn chips to my nose... yet. I would say, try a small piece of it first and see what you think. Some vendors will be willing to send you a small sample of it so that you can try it. And of course, different vendors' oils will smell different sometimes so don't be afraid to try it from more than one vendor unless you seriously detest it.😊 Starting out, I might recommend a really creamy blend like The Pharmacist's Daughter's Creamy Zucchini.
