Band of Bloggers: February 2017, Volume 14


Welcome to the February edition of Band of Bloggers!  You're probably getting tired of winter already as we start this new month.  Maybe your thoughts are already turning towards spring, or maybe you're all about Valentine's at the moment.  Hearts and roses, chocolates and cards, and special someones making you smile . . .   With all that love floating around, our question this month is quite simple.

What scent are you *loving* at the moment?
It can be anything from wax to perfume to body care to . . . whatever!

For wax, I am loving on some serendipity and vanilla blends. I cannot get enough. Gimme sweet and gimme strong. We have been having some cold snaps and the vanilla marshmallows and bakery scents have been keeping us warm and snug. 

On a side note I have indeed fallen for the Lush Sonic Death Monkey I bought a little while ago. I have been using it as a shampoo and shower gel and it is yummy. So cozy and snug as a bug in a rug. I still get a hefty does of coconutty cocoa butter and I love it. 

In perfume land I am tossing between Sonoma Scent Studio Equestrian and Solstice Scents Manor with a dash of a sample here and there. I can feel the rose time of the year creeping up on me, though. 

At night, before bed I am either dousing myself in Haus of Gloi Peppermint Woods or Solstice Scents Lavender Vanilla. 

We hope you'll join the fun and leave your own answer in the comments below.

  1. Ah! Serendipity! I need to dig through my 'everyday' stash and see if I have any Serendipity left. Might need to track some down and place an order.

    1. It has been ringing those chimes for sure. And I stuffed as many serendipity blends as I have in my melting basket this week, so that has been nice. <3 Kind of a rough/hectic week so a nice little perk-me-up.

  2. Is Sonic Death Monkey coffee-scented? Always been curious about that one, but I've NEVER seen it offered in the regular rotation (just the blasted Kitchen, and you know how I feel about that!)

    1. It is supposed to be coffee scented. It certainly has coffee in it. But I get this wonderful coconut cocoa butter cream and orangesicle vibe. I am sure it smells more like coffee and chocolate to others but you know how noses are :-) I think I saw it offered once for a limited time many years ago. I did get this from Hell's Kitchen. But I didn't stay up late or anything, just grabbed some when I woke up in the morning.

    2. Ha, Hell's Kitchen - feels about right (50 POUNDS for shipping, no matter the weight. Felt a bit excessive for the, like, .05 ounce solid perfume I was eyeing. That's close to $100 Canadian. I actually guffawed out loud, like, "Y'all are freaking KIDDING, no way.")

  3. Dousing yourself before bed? You are a scented inspiration;)

    1. Lol!! Yes ma'am! But usually only in lavender, vanilla, or peppermint scents. Sometimes just body oils or lotions but I like to spray a little something. What I really need is more pillow spray.
