Here is the full scent list for my bath products:
Fragrance Oils:

Sun Ripened Strawberry
Coconut Lime Verbena-Blend of Lime, Coconut, Verbena Compared to: Bath & Body Works-
Tranquil Sleep-Blend of Lavender and Vanilla Compared to: Bath & Body Works-
Creamy Coconut-Blend of Coconut, Cream, Pineapple Compared to: Bath & Body Works
Oatmeal, Milk & Honey-Blend of Oatmeal, Milk, Honey and Almond
White Tea & Ginger- Blend of White Tea, Ginger Compared to: Bath & Body Works
Orchard-This is a refreshing blend of Yellow Pear, Green Apple and Green Pear, heightened by notes of twigs and leaves. This fragrance will make you want to go out hiking and take a long picnic break in the nearest fruit orchard.
Fresh Brewed Coffee-Smells like Fresh Coffee
Vanilla-soft vanilla smell
Georgia Peach-Smells like a Sweet, Syrupy Georgia Peach
Relaxing-A relaxing blend of French Lavender and Fir Pine, enhanced with Egyptian Jasmine and sweetened with pure Vanilla, softened with delicate Musk.
Green Apple-Smells like a Green Apple
Sea Fresh-This crisp scent awakens the body and recharges the spirit. Capture the cool sensation of a refreshing sea breeze. Bring a clean and fresh feeling to your home. If you like Irish Springs, you will absolutely fall in love with this FO!!
Apple Orchard-Blend of Apple Blossoms and Red Apple
Rice Flower & Shea Butter-Blend of Lily, Hyacinth, and Sandalwood Compared to: Bath & Body Works
Baby Powder-Smells like Baby Powder
Grass Stain-This scent is fresh, clean and vibrant. It's a single note fragrance smelling of ... fresh cut grass! Remember your childhood, frolicking in the grass, rolling down grassy hills and playing on the swing set at the park? This is the fragrance to bring it all back. It's crisp, sweet and green and you'll love it!
Chamomile Bergamot-This wonderful fragrance, based on a Garden Botanical blend ("Very Well"), is a blend, primarily made up of its namesakes, Chamomile and Bergamot. Not content to be a two-note blend, this fragrance also contains notes of Tangerine, Pettigrain, Sage, Geranium and Moss. These wonderful notes (all fantastic on their own, but serendipitous in this mix) make for an herbal-ly, balancing scent.
Rose Petals-This one is a definite winner!!! It is not a "little old lady perfume" type of rose at all, but it reminds one more of Rose Milk hand lotion. It is very strong. The romantic scent of rose petals....it’s like walking through a rose garden
Lavender-Smells like lavender-
Sandalwood-woodsy, down to earth scent
Peppermint-Smells like Fresh Peppermint
Sweet grass-This fragrance oil is a delightful treat for the nose. A bright, green scent
Tropical Vacation-A mix of mango, coconut and pineapple rolled into one sweet scent.
Lettuce-Crisp and clean and everything green
Rise & Shine-This scent is all about happiness and light. It contains a lot of fresh orange notes, with additional notes of Apple, Grapefruit, Peach and Strawberry with just a touch of Loganberry.
Bonsai-This fragrance is a Floral Fresh with Citrus and Pine accords, having some Tropical Fruits and Wood tones on background. This is an excellent Zen like fragrance
Energy-A stimulating blend of Citrus, including Grapefruit, Lemon and Lime, with hints of fresh Cucumber and Jasmine, and a touch of Pineapple, Blackberry and Champagne.
Red Currant & Thyme-Blend of Red Currant, Thyme Compared to: Bath & Body Works
Cranberry-Juicy, tart and delicious
Fresh Baked Bread-Yummy, hot out of the oven bread
Beeswax & Honey- Smells *exactly* like a beeswax candle. BOTTOM LINE: Sure, it may sound a little weird, but trust me -- a bar of soap that smells like a big chunk of raw beeswax is, as it turns out, really, really neat.
Christmas Spice- Blend of Yuletide spice, woods, and sweet notes. At the top, ripe strawberry melds with touches of green apple and pineapple. Next, holiday spices of clove, cinnamon, pimento, and cardamom blend with a hint of rose, leading to a long-lasting scent of sweet vanilla and balsam fir.
Irish Fields- Strong, fresh and clean
Lavender & Herbs- Heavy on the natural essential oils, including lavender, lavandin, cedarwood, eucalyptus, geranium, copaiba balsam, chamomile, fir needle, rosemary, marjoram, and lemon. Floral notes of jasmine, rose, and tuberose help to round out and soften the blend.
Pumpkin Spice-Delectable notes of cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, cardamom, and pimento leaf lend warmth to a green, balsamic heart. The dry down brings together rich vanilla and sweet caramel for a mouthwatering finale.
Heather-A scent that smells like a meadow of wildflowers -- green and fresh.
Country Christmas- Simple and unpretentious -- like Christmas in a country farmhouse. Top notes of cinnamon, peach, strawberry, blood orange, and plum lead to a warm, woodsy heart of juniper berries and raspberry, with a clean, forestry finish of spruce, pine, vanilla bean, and musk.
Dark Rich Chocolate-so yummy just like a warm gooey brownie

Long time no see



Logging in tonight to post a blog, I realized how long it's been since I posted. Guess that's what a full time job, 3 year old, and sickness does to your schedule. Today my husband did a wonderful thing, he bought me something I actually like (love actually) without being prompted. Yes, I know, impossible right? Nope! Chris went to Lenox Mall today with his boss for an anniversary lunch and he went to the Godiva store and bought me a very expensive chocolate covered strawberry. I have been on a chocolate covered strawberry kick lately. He then messaged me to ask me if there was anything I wanted. As you see from the second picture, he then went to the Teavana store and bought me 4 oz of their very delicious Jasmine Dragon Phoenix Green Tea Pearls. This is one of my favorite teas of all time, and their Jasmine tea is the best. It is hand rolled and very expensive. So I feel like a queen now. Well, off to eat and drink my snacks!

Tea Swap #12



Here are the other two packages I received for this swap. They were from Sally & Surefitz. I do love tea!!!

Just Stuff Swap


This package was sent to my by Fin. There were four caramels when I opened the package, and by the time I took the picture (10 minutes), there was only one left. They were SO good!

Just for Fun Swap


This package was sent to me by MICHELLELORIE. This was probably the nicest and most thought out package I have ever received. Everything I received I would have bought for myself. The hair bands are perfect for my thick hair because they don't slip. The aromatherapy reference guide is so cool-I love it and have used it several times already. The mints are good-and sugar free, which is good because I just found out that I need to cut out all my sugar. I have already drank the Irish Breakfast tea, and the stationary is just too cute to use. This is my new all time favorite package.

Handmade Earrings Swap


These earrings were sent to me by huiyuehin.(how do people come up with their user names?) I think these look very retro! She did a great job on them.

Candy/Lolly Swap


This package was sent to me by Sally. She sent all sorts of candies, I haven't had chicklets in years!
