While you may have smelled this scent before, you may not have had EXACTLY this scent. Cinnamon Berry is a unique scent we’ve created ourselves, and is extremely strong. If you like Best Friends, Mango Mandrin, Cinnamon, and other fruity scents, you’ll fall in love with Cinnamon Berry.
This scent along with the other 80+ can be ordered in any shape or size at our Online Store.

The newest scent added just today - Strawberry Rhubarb Pie! Just as the name suggests, it’s the aroma of sweet fresh strawberries mixed with sour rhubarb marmalade, with a base note of flaky pie crust. One of those “want to eat” scents without a doubt.
This scent is one of three strawberry scents you’ll find in the scent list. The other two are Strawberry Daiquiri and Strawberry & Champagne. Even though all three are “strawberry”, each are unique in their own way. Daiquiri is very sweet, while Champagne has a “clean” scent to it. The newest is slightly more tart with a bakery undertone to it. All three are fantastic, so instead of deciding on one you might have to try all three!

While “unusual” candle scents can mean different things for different people, I decided it was about time to cover some I believe are “unusual”. I’m sure at least one of these you will have heard of, but for the most part I believe they are unique.
Coca Cola
Yes this is a candle scent! It’s actually one of my favorites. You would think it wouldn’t be a scent you’d like to smell in your home, but it’s actually very “clean” smelling. The normal reaction to this scent is “WOW!”
Fresh Cut Grass
Another favorite. This one is perfect in late winter, when you are just dying for the smell of spring and summer. Yes it really does smell like fresh cut grass!
Hummingbird
A very popular unusual candle scent. It’s actually a blend of fruit and florals. Makes a great gift when you can’t decide, since almost everyone loves this scent.
Doodle Bug
Another unusual candle scent, mostly because of the name. This scent is actually the smell of childhood - newborn baby, dum-dum suckers, watermelon, and bubblegum.
While I’m sure there are more unusual candle scents you will find on our site, the ones above are the most unusual in my opinion. You can see all 50+ scents at our online store.

Never heard of the scent “Nag Champa”? We hadn’t either until we started seeing how popular it was getting. A little research told us this scent was a blend of patchouli, sandalwood, and dragon’s blood. Imagine the smell of fresh incense without all the smoke!
On December 27th, 2006, this scent was added to our regular line of scents. We thought this was a perfect scent to add just before the new year. It’s also perfect for those who have been asking for something similar to patchouli or sandalwood (and there have been quite a few requests!).
Nag Champa candles can be purchased in any size or type at our online store.

If you’ve seen our scent “Coca Cola”, I’m sure you’ve asked yourself “Does that REALLY smell like Coke??”. Well let me put that question to rest - yes, it really does smell like Coke. The general reaction at craft shows when they smell the coca-cola scent is “WOW!”. Many can’t get over how much it really DOES smell like it says.
The other question that’s been asked on this particular scent, is “does it make you want to drink it?” That I can’t really answer. It doesn’t make ME want to drink it, but I think it could have a different effect on others.
Finally the other question that may be on your mind…..how does it smell burning? Answer - absolutely wonderful. This is one of my favorite “any time” scents that I throw in the melt warmer often. It’s got a nice “clean” scent to it, believe it or not.
There you have it - the mysteries behind the ever so unique scent “Coca Cola” answered.
