love all your contributions. There are so many scented candles etc out there so I'm always so discouraged to even try make my brand.I want such a classy look - not craft like candles - homemade looking - but i really want to try.

Would love your ideas. Hmmn brand new book - be great as a bookclub gift too. I would have thought more of you would like hot buttered toast. Is that maybe not fresh enough?

Clean washing.
Would not want a candle that smelt like toast.
Like a clean smell!
Hate anything that smells sickly and cheap

Mooey89 · 25/01/2021 09:07

Would love a spa smell!

BaronessBomburst · 25/01/2021 09:10

None of those. I like rich floral and incense smells, and cedar.
I am not your target market!

You will never, EVER make money this way. If you want a vanity business, fine but if you want a viable, profitable business, this is not the way.

I’ve never smelled pina colada so who knows?

ElizaLaLa · 25/01/2021 09:48

Not very encouraging or positive Popsy321. Jo malone sells her shite candles for about 70 quid a pop.

Pineapple and coconut basically.

My faves would be clean washing and a spa type smell. The rest wouldn't appeal. As I'd mainly use candles in the evenings I'd want something relaxing/sensual. Smells like oud, frankincense, rose, ginger, cloves, frangipani, lavender...
