Rosegirls: June Order Pies, Loaves and Muffins


                            

Rosegirls smallest quantity blending option is their muffin 4 pack. I tend to cut my muffins in half so I get 8 uses out of a muffin 4 pack. For $12 you can blend up to 3 scents, you choose which two scents you would like for the chunks and the third scent is the overpour. The overpour tends to be the strongest, as it is in the greater quantity, so it is usually recommended that quieter scents, like vanillas, creams, and cookies, are chosen for that. But of course, depending on your blends and desires, you can choose anything to be your overpour! 


Rosegirls pies are $28 and come presliced into 8 chunks which can then be cut into 2-4 pieces each. I usually cut then into thirds. 


Peppermint Coconut Mallow is a dream come true for me. Such a calming aroma of sweet and creamy peppermint. There is no such thing as too much PCM in my life.


Sunny Days vibrantly throws off a punchy tropical fruit fragrance of strawberry and satsuma. I bought this one for my mom as part of her birthday gift basket. This is one of her absolute favorite Rosegirls scents.


Frosted Streuselkuchen is one of my favorite comfy cozy house warming scents. A delectable cinnamon bakery with added Vanilla Bean Noel. Really, really good stuff if you are a cinnamon fan.




Two pound loaves are $28 each and able to be blended in three scents as well. These come presliced and usually require no further cutting.


Sweet Lavender Marshmallow requires double chunks of sweet lavender and marshmallow smoothie overpour to create. This loaf was a semi-gamble for me, as I had never had this particular scent. But I adore RG lavender and marshmallow so I figured I couldn't lose. And I most certainly did not lose. Their lavender is hard to pin down, it is not extremely herbal like The Bathing Garden, but not detergent/softeneresque like Front Porch. It straddles the line between the two and has its own characteristic sweetness, almost like BBW Lavender Vanilla. Combining it with marshmallow smoothie lends extra vanilla cream sweetness.


Pecan Waffle Fluff Puffs has been a crowd pleaser since it debuted in a Simply Sensational Sampler several months back, I want to say in April or May. It is simply divine and I fall in love with it again every time I inhale its yummy bakery notes.





Raspberry Sauce/Mango/White Tea overpour Muffins turned out marvelously! The tartly sweetened raspberry and juicy peach-like mangos play very well together. Both united with a clean light tea that has a touch of herbal backbone transforms this scent into something I would wear as a fun and lighthearted fragrance in the summertime.


Mango/Strawberry Raspberry Guava/Margarita overpour Muffins have me singing Buffett tunes about my lost shaker of salt. A fruity and bright cocktail of limey tart frozen slush. All it needs is a motley paper umbrella to accompany it. Another great summer scent.


Cranberry Marmalade/Cranberry Orange/Orange Revival overpour Muffins will be in my Mom's birthday basket as well. These scents have a synergy that cannot be denied. They combine to create a festive fragrance that somehow has slight bakery notes and a touch of spices that comes across as Christmas. Rosegirls has top-notch cranberry and citrus fragrances.


Hollyberry chunks/Christmas Past overpour Muffins were ones I had requested to change as my friend Deb had said Hollyberry did not come across as a very holiday type of scent. I can smell what she meant. It is a fruity candy/drink type of smell. Christmas Past has a lovely pine and evergreen aroma. My scent change was to copy another lady's blend of Christmas Past/Peppermint/Vanilla Bean Noel. 


This post and yesterday's post combine to encompass my entire June Rosegirls order. This has, by far, been my most extravagant order to date and I cannot imagine exceeding it, but who knows what the future holds. I will say that I will be trying to order every time Rosegirls opens, even if it is a wee haul. Do any of these blends sound good? Do you think you prefer bags, muffins, pies or loaves? What are some of your Rosegirls favorites?

  2. I agree about Peppermint Coconut Mallow. With that, and Snowflake, who needs anything else?

    I think the cookies are my favorite form of Rosegirls. I can just chop them into thirds and be done with it. I like to only melt around 1 oz. at a time, so I even cut the chunks a lot of times. But I like the cookies because three pieces and I'm done. A bag seems to last forever for me.

    1. Exactly. Such excellent scents.

      The cookies are great. I wish she would sell them online. I would buy them instead of bags for scents I want to try.

      It gives me a little thrill to be able to gush over smellies with my mom and sisters. We all like such different smells.
