Default Contest: Strangest Scent Combo

I'm holding a fun new contest!

Basically, write down suggestions for a new scent, using some very unique combos that might not normally seem to go together! I'll try mixing my favorite of the ideas and the best smelling combo will receive on site credit for the blend and a free bottle!

The point is to be really off the wall, like "chocolate syrup & bay rum". I have hundreds of oils so I'm likely to have whatever you name too! Besides like . .bacon or pizza of course!

Have fun! You can give as many suggestions as you come up with. You can do name and descriptions or just the notes, whichever you prefer!

Dang, I always wanted a maple syrup and bacon scent. Seriously, what man wouldn't fall head over heels for a woman who smelled like breakfast? Plus, I do love bacon pizza...

Let's call this my witch collection. I'm tired of witches being portrayed as evil and ugly all the time. Well that and I do love Halloween!


Sultry Witch: Spicy Pumpkin, Egyptian Musk, Amber (gold? or spicy?), Cinnamon or Nutmeg, Cheesecake

Maiden: Coconut Rum, Blackberry, Toasted Marshmellow

Mother: Creme Brulee, Cherry, Cedarwood

Crone: Almond, Lavender, Shea Butter

Under My Spell: Victorian Musk, Ozone, Merlot Wine (but only if it smells like head-spinning wine) or Plum as an alternative.

Cyber Punk Pagan: Sultry Spice Market, Caramel Milk, Metal

Mmm...I would love a cool, creamy, green tea ice cream scent! No violet notes for me though. They make me ill. X_X

Wow, those are all great! Teggy, you basically made a perfect whole collection! Courtney (my sister that is) would love those too, she has always been interested in Wicca and paganism.

Mmmm . .pumpkin orchid!

Default here's a weird one!

For a fun thing, I asked my son to make me a custom fragrance for my birthday--He picked the Custom Bowl of Cereal, and here's what he put in it:
Honey Nut-O's, sour green gummy bears, red grapes, and root beer!!!
I laughed when I saw the ingredients, thinking Ashley had NEVER made up such a gag-worthy combination. But when I wore it--it was wonderful! Truly. I got compliments from everyone. It's sort of like a root beer float, very creamy smelling, with a hint of fruit and nuts. It definitely doesn't smell like any of the (hundreds!) of perfumes I own--
He even named it after our two boxer puppies-- "Comet and Astro Nuts!"

Default another suggestion...

My favorite tea blend would make a terrific perfume: it's black tea, licorice, ginseng and peppermint. Odd, but lovely smelling!

Laurie, that is way too funny a story! I must say, I was slightly aghast when I saw that blend . . .it was definitely the most unique picks I'd ever seen! I thought the blend smelled pretty interesting, the root beer took over, but the grape really added a nice touch! The name was adorable, I kept envisioning some retro kid's cereal with martian cartoon spokesmen!
That tea blend sounds lovely! I'm sitting here sipping a peppermint ginger tea as I type!
