What I’ve Been Warming & Buttercream Collection Warm Reviews! ❄️
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 вер 2024
- Hey guys it’s Robyn! Today I’m sharing what I’ve warmed over the past 2 weeks, mostly Scentsy with a few vendor items sprinkled in.
I am an independent Scentsy consultant from Dawson Creek BC, Canada and have been a lover of all things home fragrance and bath/body for many years. I love connecting with other home fragrance fanatics and sharing thoughts!
All opinions are my honest opinions, and everyone’s nose is different, so what I think may differ from what you think, and that’s what’s so fun about this! I also try to include information like duration and strength of scents whether I personally like them or not, to help you make informed purchasing decisions.

I love joy and wonder!
Sorry to hear you and the family have been sick, but glad you're on the mend! You were missed.
We had a cold weekend here and I almost turned on the heater. Cold = below 60F. Haha! But instead I pulled out some sweatshirts and extra blankets. Yesterday was almost 80F again. It's our season of crazy up/down temps. But the humidity is gone - hopefully until summer - so most days are very nice even if I have to put on one of those sweatshirts.
I've been warming a lot of Sanderson Sisters and also pulling out Autumn/Holiday bars that are in my Club(s) and have been piling up since the catalog switch to make room for a new Club shipment coming at the beginning of December. I felt like I was hoarding them for some reason but now I'm full-on with many of them. I liked Joy and Wonder from last year but it was not a good performer for me so I was a little surprised to hear you say how long it lasted. Such different experiences we all have! Vanillamint is on deck for today to be sure it deserves a Club spot.
Yay, I’m glad you’re having more reasonable weather down there and have some relief from humidity!
We did get better but then promptly got another bug that’s even worse! I suspect it’s the flu. I’ve been knocked on my butt all week!
Happy Thanksgiving!
Ohhh all of these scents sound so amazing, cozy and perfect for fall. The Snickerdoodle scent sounded so sweet and amazing + I LOVED hearing you share your experience burning our Pumpkin Spice Latte melts, so happy you loved them. Such a perfect fall scent. I hope you are feeling better, being sick is no fun.
Thank you for making the wonderful Pumpkin Spice Latte melts! They are delicious!
Sorry to hear you were sick my friend. I thought you were pretty quiet. My husband & i have managed to avoid “that which cannot be named” for the last almost three years 🤞🏻My experience with the buttercreams is much like yours. I’ve hauled more of the Candy Cane & Gingerbread - not giving up just yet. I might like the Cinnamon Buttercream Clove & Cinnamon mix. I’ll try it. 🤗💛
Wow, they should be sending awards to those who’ve managed to avoid it this long! Congrats! We’re on round 3 - a kid in school/daycare and a teacher in the house means we get everything. 😅
Lovely what you’ve been warming Robyn!🥰 I took Perfect Peppermint and VBBC and got more scent then the Buttercream Bundle. I did order several more of the 4 packs because I think they just need to cure longer, so I will set those aside. Devi warmed Peppermint Dreams yesterday 🥰 I’ve not opened the 3d scent circle, was going to gift that, but now I won’t 🤣🥹 Glad you are on the mend! It is noticed when you are not posting videos! Hugs Robyn and thank you 🥰😘❤
Hi Robyn,
So glad to hear you are all feeling better.
I am finally able to get back to watching some videos.
I haven't done a lot of melting over the past week, I didn't lose my sense of smell but the virus hit me with aches and weakness so getting out of bed to change the wax was a no go.
Tom kept the warmers going for me with St Nickerdoodle, Apple Cherry Strudel and Baked Apple Pie throughout the house and my medicinal scentsy bar Best in Snow in my bedroom.
I absolutely love your tree and fireplace decor...so beautiful..
Great to hear the Canapa wax did well, I was hoping it would be like a gourmet coffee shop, so happy it performed as hoped for..😊
Off to catch up on all the videos I have missed.
Have a great rest of the week.
Glad to hear you’re on the mend Lesley! I’m sorry you’ve been so ill. How sweet of Tom to keep the warmers stocked for you!
Yes, Canapa has done very well, and I look forward to melting more! I hope you get to try them one of these days too!
Great empties Robyn! So glad you got to enjoy your Toasted Marshmallow and happy to hear you guys are feeling better! Have a great day my friend ❤
Have a great rest of your week too! 💗
Hi Robyn! Glad you are getting better. We’re all passing it around as well. Really surprised that the VBBC collection sold out as quick as it did. Have only warmed the Gingerbread one so far and I enjoyed it, but totally agree with your experience 🤷🏼♀️. Loved hearing what you’ve been warming. You always give me good ideas about different places to try scents I typically only warm in a certain area. Take care!💕
That was a VERY quick sell out, Wowzer!
I mixed perfect peppermint with VBBC and it was absolutely lovely
I’m going to mix PP with CCBC to see if I can bring out the peppermint
I’m going to try that I think also, as when I put them side by side it was very close to Candy Cane Buttercream! If the mix performs better than that bar, I might be able to save a Club spot!
Glad it was a good mix!
Ooooh pumpkin 🎃 spice latte! ❤️ nice!!
Robyn I am so glad you liked my combo suggestion of Graham cracker crunch and caramel chestnut! I agree, you can mix GCC with so many things! I am excited to try caramel chestnut with others, look forward to your recommendations! -Frankie
I feel like Caramel Chestnut would pair well with Around the Campfire - might be a nice late fall mix.
And thank you for the GCC/CC mix idea!
I hope they age well, I was looking forward to the gingerbread buttercream. Thank you for your reviews and honesty 😊
Just want to say..Your tree is beautiful & your mantle decorations are super cute
Thank you! 🦌
Your tree is Beautiful!!!
I think you should do a tour of the ornaments and decor!! I see a flickering light that has my attention 😍🎅🏻🤶🏻🎄
Pleased you are feeling better .. miss you when you’re not posting . I checked the pour dates on my buttercream set and they were all poured in April . You would think they’ve cured well in 7 months ? I enjoy the scents just wish they were longer lasting. My vit R relax lasts a good solid two days in my bedroom and I love that bar . I really like Joy and Wonder ..it’s different . Thanks for sharing 😊
Interesting - that suggests that they poured them all before SFR so they should have cured by now. Hmmmmm.
I agree, Vitamin R is a wonderful bedroom bar!
Thank you Robyn, similar experience on the buttercreams and hoping for greater strength after curing. Agreed that the scent circle does not represent Scentsy well.
Thank you for sharing your empties. ❤️
I’m realizing that so many of the scents that do well in my home were poured over a year ago - maybe there is something to hanging on to scents you really like and seeing if they do better later.
If I’d known Soothe was this great of a performer when it first released I’d have gotten more! Hopefully the Buttercreams age well.
@@RobynH so true. I know we like to think that Scentsy doesn't need to cure, but why should it be different from any other wax - it all benefits from curing. Fingers crossed for this set because they really are very pretty! 🤷💞
Awe sorry you are sick 😢hope you feel better ❤️🩹 soon! I guess I’m not too sad I missed the bundle with the scent circle. I even missed getting the set because I didn’t get them on that Monday lol… so they are in my December club. I guess I don’t want to try the Beiber Tim bits either 😂…. I’m totally excited to try them and have high hopes they’ll mature after several months. 🙏🏻 please God because they sound amazing!! Love your decor btw! 🥰❤️
I think we can all enjoy full lives without ever trying the Justin Bieber timbits 😂. You’re not missing much.😅
@@RobynH 😂😂😂
Hope you're feeling fully better soon! I'm on week 3 of this lingering cold. Ugh. Good for you your smell came back!! Mine was gone in July & it was the most depressing thing!! Recently my sense of smell has been not as great but it comes & goes. It's my darn sinuses that are a lingering issue. Haha maybe tmi. 🙃 nice decorations!! Hoping to get mine up after US Thanksgiving next week 😇🥰😃
Oh dear, hope you kick the cold soon! And I’m sorry about your sinus woes! Happy decorating next week!
Fab empties Robyn! Glad you are feeling better and that you got your scent back! I also got "that" virus and it has taken my nose hostage for 2 weeks now. The worst timing ever, I just received my club order along with new scents that I can't really smell...but I can kinda smell Caramel Chestnut, it smells so good from what I can smell. Honestly I would rather it abduct my taste buds and not my nose. I tried to get the buttercreams but they sold out so fast, so I created a new monthly club and snuck them in there...ha ha. Hopefully I will smell by then.
Argh, what timing! Hope your nose recovers quickly and you can smell your goodies!
I’m impressed you didn’t lose your taste buds too! Both times I’ve lost my sense of smell the tastebuds went too!
You did a bunch of my faves, Vanillamint (so sad I don't have this in my club) Toasted Marshmallow (I do have this in club!), Arctic Kiss, Cashmere Pear, all so good, amd perform great in my home
Lucky you with Toasted Marshmallow clubbed!!!
I love Joy and Wonder. It will be in my club forever.
It’s a good one to Club as I doubt we’ll see it back since it’s been in Clearance for so long! And so unique! Love it.
I grew up in Michigan USA & we have Tim Hortons. Love them!! Always our preferred donut stop.
In Wisconsin now, and I never got wind of those Justin Bieber Timbits but sounds like I didn’t miss much haha.
You did not miss much 😅. That was a strange time for Tim Hortons! 😂
This scent circle & boxed set ARE coming back- they just need time to pour more
I hope you’re right - the only thing I see on the Product Status List as “backordered” is the 4 bar bundle, and the date is TBD. The boxed set “Holiday Edition Bundle” is currently listed as “out of stock” with the list of items that are not being restocked.
I do wish they’d post a clear update on workstation News.
I mixed Sips of Cider with Maple Rum Cake in alternate warmers and it was incredible. I think that might be what I warm for Thanksgiving.. or Cranberry Pumpkin Spice. 🦃
That sounds yummy! Cranberry Pumpkin Spice would be a perfect thanksgiving bar too!
That sounds like an interesting combination. I’ll give it try.
We have Tim Hortons in my area of Western New York! Tim Biebs is what they were calling those tim bits lol! My nephew loved them. I’m warming my fall and pumpkin scents but the city of Buffalo is about to get hit with a lake effect snow storm starting on Friday and they are calling for 4 FEET of snow ⛄️😢 I plan on warming full on Christmas scents and decorating the house since we likely won’t be driving anywhere this weekend 🎄🎅🏻
Woah, I can’t imagine 4 feet of snow all at once, YIKES! Stay warm and safe!!! ❄️
Yes, they released the Bieber timbits twice - the first time they were BieberBits and people had WAY too much fun with that name 😆, and then they were TimBiebs the second release. I forgot about that! They’re forever BeiberBits in my mind 😂.
Ohhh BieberBits is way funnier!!! 😂
This might be a dumb question but do you have warmers that go 24/7 or do you turn them all off at certain times. I find that I keep mine on 24/7 out of just laziness I guess but I’m not sure if you recommend something else I’m curious to hear what you do in your house :)
I keep mine going 24/7. I have way too much going on to babysit my warmers, and I quite enjoy the constant scent and cozy glow.
Totally personal preference though, I think most folks turn theirs off sometimes. Nothing wrong with leaving them going though, that’s my preference too. 😊
Any good companies in the states 4 Gingerbread. I was disappointed with st. Nickerdoodle. Didn't look at notes. My bad. Wanted sugar cookie/cinnamon etc. Love u ideas and videos
Most vendors have gingerbread scents, although I haven’t tried enough to know which are best!
That’s a bummer, yes what you imagined is what I expected St Nickerdoodle to be too, although I LOVE that bar. But it was different than expected!
I get horrible performance from Joy and Wonder. Every time it only lasts 4-6 hours for me. My son loves it but where we got at most 6 hours (in his room) and only 4 hours in my open area, I stopped buying it and grabbed some pods instead. The tree looks so pretty!! We were 75-80 degrees last week, now 35-40 this week. It was a nice November spring for a bit. Saved some heating costs lol.
Wow, that’s wild that Joy and Wonder does so poorly in your house! Goes to show that things vary WILDLY from house to house! Oh wow nice and toasty last week! That’s summer weather!!! 😅 -6F here this morning! 🥶
I guess it depends on the house because I have a smaller house and it lasts about 2 days.
I was going to take VitaminnR out of my club, when I tried it in my bathroom. And then I decided I did actually need to leave it in my club. Haha!
Muguet is another term for Lily-of-the-Valley. ☺️
Thank you!!!
Interesting, it doesn’t smell like Lily to me. Maybe a very soft, creamy sweet one. Thank you for solving my muguet mystery!
I’m warming Walnut Raisin Muffin from the flash sale and remembering just how much I used to love it… wish I had known about always get my bar back when it was retiring! I’ve been under the impression that flash sales were bars they have hanging around and want to get rid of, but the pour date was from September 2022.. so odd! 🤔 Perhaps they are getting ready to bring it back… wishful thinking!
Interesting! It is a lovely bar, I think many of us would be pleased to see it back!
Do you have a powerhouse video?
