I’m so excited you posted this am. Lucky me, I got a new post from both you and Elizabeth this morning to keep me company while working through some spreadsheets. 🙌 I appreciate your content however you organize it. The thing that appreciate most about your reviews is how you talk not just about the bar but about where and when you enjoy it. Your videos inspired me to build a whole family holiday movie night around my summer clearance purchase of tinselberry. You have a special way of translating the experience not just the smell of the bar. I can see how splitting the brands might be helpful for those who don’t melt different brands and only melt one or the other.
Thank you for your sweet words! 💜 I’m glad Tinsel Berry worked for your movie night - it’s MADE for movie nights! I love picking just the right scent for an occasion! 🎄
@@scenteddragronflywithmichelle We watched several. We started out with A Muppets Christmas Carol, then we watched a hallmark one called Christmas at the Plaza, and we The Bishop’s Wife.
If you don't mind answering, curious on which Elizabeth you were listening to. I also enjoy listening to Robin's reviews while I work, along with Patricia Gaetz's reviews. Pleasant people, just talking about what they love but no pushy sales. Love a good honest straight forward review to get a well rounded perspective on scent updates & products.
Just wanted to say that I really like how you put the Scent name and notes in the video when you’re talking about it! I’m an in between also. I like to pick things up as I see them.
Robin, love these reviews. Gonna have to revisit this and take notes when done working. lol. As far as Holiday shopper, I am usually the buy in Nov/Dec. Occasionally can pick up a few things early in the year, but then have to remember where I hide gifts so I don't forget bc that has happened too. Hope you are enjoying the holiday season. The holiday scents definitely add such warmth to the vibes of it all.
Thank you for the Dancing Sugar Plum/Rum Pum Plum mix suggestion. I had 3 bars of DSP left, disappointed it didn’t return but I didn’t want to add it to a club. I divide my house into 3 “sections” I just put that mix into 1 & 3 with Cherries Jubilee in #2 to break it up and not go nose blind.
From the comments, I see many of us were yelling at the screen, “Bazooka” 😂 Extra credit- the character from the comic was Bazooka Joe! I also needed a minute to collect myself after your blast from the past shoutout to 90’s Biolage Shampoo. 😂 That was a great scent! I really hope to see Joy & Wonder in a flash sale some day, it’s our only hope. Thanks for all the great warming ideas. I’m still slowly coming back so not much to share. Shopping- I’m a December girl. If I start too early, I spend way too much because I will just keep getting things my family mentions. It’s like the further away I get from the money I spent, it doesn’t really count towards my limit 😂 My sisters love my Christmas math.
LOOOLLL I totally do the same Christmas math! 🤣 It doesn’t count if I bought it before September. And candy counts as free, don’t ask me why. But in my head candy is free and is just to accompany the gift. But if someone gets ME candy, that’s totally a whole gift and super sweet and I love it.
I love your videos! You give the best descriptions :) I am warming my WW bars today. I don't think Violet is going to last the day in the kids bathroom - my son has already begged me to take it out. I told him we need to give it a chance to see if it changes. I feel some future mixing happening to use up the rest. Fizzy is giving me pixie stick sugar powder. I'm not sure about it yet. Gobstopper is my favorite so far. We really enjoyed Wish. I think I'm going to club it at least til late Spring when I can I do a full comparison with Squeeze the Day. It's just not the best season for it to my nose, so I want to wait on my decision. I couldn't decide between Mandarin Moon and Spiced Orange Harvest when they both came back in the same BBMB, so I stocked up on both. I think I might prefer the Orange Spice to both of those. I got a bar to test it out. If I miss out on the brick (not sure I'm going to place another order) I'm ok to leave it in my club for a bit. I love love love Joy & Wonder. I clubbed it and share it with my mom. I was so excited when it showed up in the fragrance flower in one of the Friday sales. I grabbed a couple for Christmas gifts. I did think that Spiced Berries from a recent BBMB was very similar. I haven't done a head to head to test that yet, but I feel that coming very soon as we are getting closer to Christmas. I haven't ventured into the vendor wax world - I have way too much scentsy to get through lol! But I love hearing about all the wax :) It doesn't matter to me if it's mixed or separate in your videos. I am typically last minute, but this year I had a large chunk of my shopping done before Dec 1st! I do still have a good amount to go, but not nearly as much as usual. Thank you for sharing!!
Lol he was begging you to take it out 😅 - life’s too short for bad wax! I didn’t find it changed much on warm - did you? Those spiced orange scents - there’s quite a few and they’re all very good in their own ways. Orange Spice is especially good though, I agree. Yes Spiced Berries was the closest thing we’ve gotten to Joy and Wonder - unfortunately my husband had a strong aversion to Spiced Berries (but he likes Joy and Wonder!) so I couldn’t even stock up on that! If I ever see J&W in a flash sale I’ll be grabbing a pile of it!
@@RobynH I didn't think VTV changed by much. It's not going to be a repurchase for us. All 3 of the WW bars were sputtered out within 24 hours. It doesn't seem to be a very long-lasting collection which is too bad. That's so odd that your husband doesn't like Spiced Berries but enjoys Joy and Wonder - they're so similar to my nose!
I think it might be a tiny bit sweeter on warm, yes. It’s maybe a wee bit less harsh than Squeeze the Day. Equally strong but a teeny bit sweeter. Definitely a crowd pleaser! 🍋
@@RobynH yes harsh is a good word. I don’t love lemon scents for example I only like lemon coconut chiffon and now I like wish. I had woodland suede in my club and there is lemon in it and when the bar cured the lemon note really came out and I did not like it that I took it out of my club. I wish we got fresh bars in club for that reason
It might! It reminds me a bit of Blueberry Burst from a couple Easter’s ago - more vitaminy, and less bakery than that one. But adding a bakery note to it would probably be good! And GCC would probably be good!
I melted 6 cubes of Sleigh Ride in my open concept and smelled nothing. That’s not typical for Sleigh Ride, is it? I love it on cold! I wish it had better performance for me. As for my shopping, I’m a last minute shopper lol 😂 I have yet to learn my lesson. 😊
That is odd! Sleigh Ride is generally considered a pretty good performer, better than average! Could be the day or maybe it’s just one of those bars that doesn’t work in your house (like Rustic Lodge for me!). Maybe try a smaller space with your last couple cubes and see what happens!
Thanks Robyn! I’m a somewhere-in-between shopper mostly, but if I see a great item that I know someone in particular would love I’ll get it right then. Typically I’m usually in the gift shopping mode when October hits.
I feel the same about my daughter’s room haha maybe all the buddies help to keep the room scented? Joy and Wonder was beautiful. I’ll have to add Fizzy Lifting Drink to my club to try.
I love your videos! I’m enjoying Very Snowy Spruce today. Based on recommendations by you and Elizabeth, I ordered some Teddy Bee’s which is scheduled for delivery some time today. A lot of the ones I wanted were sold out but I think I was still able to get some good ones. I’m anxious to try those. HopefullyI can get in on the next pre-order. I hope you have a great weekend! Thanks for all the great videos! ❤️
@@RobynH My order just arrived. On cold sniff, they all smell amazing! Can’t wait to warm them. Here’s what I got: Praline+Woods, Kiss Me Goodnight (has the cashmere note and smells fantastic), Smoked Gingersnaps, Bakery in Lys, The Night Before Christmas, Vanilla Balsam+The Perfect Holiday, Gone Baby Gone, Tiff’s Favorite Bakery and Witches Be Crazy for CC at Tiffany’s. They all smell so good! Praline+Woods smells amazing! There isn’t a bad one in the bunch! Thanks again for your recommendations!
I love Bubblegum my girls not so much so i took it out of my club im hoping we see Bubblegum Blast because Melissa said its bubblegum minus the mint note so many our girls will enjoy that 22:16 one better. Im Christmas crafting today and have Christmas Cottage in some of the warmers in the others i have a mix of Christmas cottage and sugar cookie, yesterday we did a mix of Cozy Kitchen and Baked Apple Pie both mixes are amazing and yummy. I like to try to plan to start shopping early but i always end up last minute.....ill blame the adhd lol
Oooo those do both sound like good mixes!!! Yes I don’t think kids now have any frame of reference to those old hard wrapped bubblegums lol - the gums now are very sweet!!

@@scenteddragronflywithmichelle We watched several. We started out with A Muppets Christmas Carol, then we watched a hallmark one called Christmas at the Plaza, and we The Bishop’s Wife.
I love Tinselberry but can't buy the bar. I got the handcream in the Nov Whiff Box and really like it.

I like the Scentsy wax 1st and vendor to follow.
Bazooka gum!
Yes!!!
Yes, Bazooka bubble gum. 😋
Nice thanks!

The scents definitely add to the mood and festivities, especially this time of year don’t they?🥰🎄
ahhh Joy & Wonder 😢another heartbreak 💔 Its soooooo good
It really is and it’s absolutely in a league of its own, there’s nothing even kinda close to it.
❤️🎁✨️ "Its so sweet, like we're going to get ants" 🤣🤣🤣
🐜🐜🐜😂
Great empties Robyn! Maybe keep the clam from Wish and just keep refilling it with Squeeze the Day when your daughter isn't looking 😉 #momhacks
You. Are. Brilliant. 💜 I’m totally gonna do that 😂
What a fantastic idea!!!

Ooo that sounds like a fun mix too! Enjoy!
❤️🎁✨️ We like mixing Orange Spice with Frosted Cinnamon Roll
That sounds delicious!!!

Hi Robyn! I prefer Scentsy first. Thanks for asking. I always enjoy your videos. Have a beautiful Sunday! Blessings!!

Bazooka gum!?!
Yes!!!
It’s funny I don’t like squeeze the day but I really enjoyed wish. Wish reminded me of a lemon sucker and it’s a hit in my house
I think it might be a tiny bit sweeter on warm, yes. It’s maybe a wee bit less harsh than Squeeze the Day. Equally strong but a teeny bit sweeter. Definitely a crowd pleaser! 🍋

I wish we got fresh bars in club for that reason
I got the same vibe with Orange Spice and Everything Nice. I ended up getting another brick to save and see if it changes over time.
Definitely worth getting more of that one!
I love Wish and Joy and Wonder. Also the Jan SOTM Candy Orchard smells candy sweet to me.
I can’t wait to smell the Jan bar! My whiff box should be here Monday!
@jennymorrell8132 have you smelled scentsys sugar or pink haze and if so how do they compare to candy orchard?!
@@scenteddragronflywithmichelle it smells more like Cotton Candy to me.
Do you think VTV will mix well with graham cracker crunch?
It might! It reminds me a bit of Blueberry Burst from a couple Easter’s ago - more vitaminy, and less bakery than that one. But adding a bakery note to it would probably be good! And GCC would probably be good!
@@RobynH I'm going to give it a try!!

Yes, sometimes you stumble upon the perfect gift in mid summer and if that happens I get it right then too lol!
I feel the same about my daughter’s room haha maybe all the buddies help to keep the room scented?
Joy and Wonder was beautiful.
I’ll have to add Fizzy Lifting Drink to my club to try.
I think you’re right, I think the buddies keep a soft sweet smell going in there for sure, wax or not!
