There's nothing I love more than Scentsy...well maybe sweet tea in my Tervis, Jesus, and gator football. You get what I mean. I know a lot of people out there enjoy it as much as I do. I saw someone else review various scents on their blog and it was super helpful to me. So, for you Scentsy lovers and those curious about it...here's an honest breakdown of scents I've tried. I will keep this post updated as I try new things.

NAS = Nice And Strong
TIOLI = Take It or Leave It
NT = No Thanks

** = Favorites

**Newborn Nursery ~ NAS ~ 
Smells like baby powder with a touch of something lovely. Others have compared it to Love's Baby Soft.
**Cherry Limeade ~ NAS ~ 
Smells like Citronella in package but when burning, it smells delightful and smells the whole house. Reminds me of Sonic's Cherry Limeade.
Rio Beach ~ TIOLI ~ 
The first bar I received of this was so weak that Scentsy sent me another. That bar was nice, and smelled very sun tan lotion-y.
**Oats 'n Honey ~ NAS ~ 
My newest obsession. Smells like a mix of kettle corn and oatmeal. Super duper strong. Love it!
**Cutiepie Cupcake (July BBMB) ~ NAS ~ 
This one is only avail during July's BBMB. Smells like a yummy vanilla cupcake with a nice twist of lemon.
Twilight ~ TIOLI ~ 
Also retired. This one was nice, but not a fave. Smells like a nice, clean soap to me.
Pumpkin Roll ~ TIOLI ~ 
Retired. I like the scent on this but it doesn't last as long as I would have hoped. Very pumpkin spice smelling with some yeasty thrown in.
**Lavender Vanilla ~ NAS ~ 
Retired. Such a shame because this one is AMAZING. It probably helps this is my most favorite scent combo in the world. It's very relaxing.
**Simply Irresistible ~ NAS ~ 
OMG. This one smells like a squeaky clean mens cologne. Kinda Abercrombie like.
**Jumpin' Jelly Bean ~ NAS ~
Smells like sour apple candy. YUM!
**Coconut Lemongrass ~ NAS ~ 
Smells EXACTLY like Thai food. Tom Kha to be precise.
Cinnamon Vanilla ~ NAS ~ 
Very warm smelling. Kinda like a cinnamon broom, but not overly strong.
**Pretty in Pink ~ NAS ~ 
Retired. Perfect feminine scent. Very much like a bouquet of flowers. Love it!
**Blueberry Cheesecake ~ NAS ~ 
YUM-O! Smells much more blueberry than cheesecake but it's delightful.
**My Dear Watson ~ NAS ~
This is one of their best sellers for a reason. A super awesome "man" fragrance. Not too strong, not too light. It's really fresh and perfect. This will probably be the scent I buy my first brick of.
Satin Sheets ~ NAS ~
This is another favorite of a lot of people. It's very warm, but also light at the same time. Feminine, but not overly. Almost has a candy smell to it a tad. I love it.
Kahiko Hula ~ TIOLI~
This is a nice, tropical scent and reminded me a lot of guava and nectarine. It didn't last long enough for me though.
**Sugar ~ NAS ~
This is an AMAZING scent. For those of you looking to replicate the smell of Pink Sugar perfume, this is it. It's very girly and cotton candy-esque. One of my favorites for sure.
White Tea & Cactus ~ TIOLI ~
This one really is a nice light scent, but I prefer my scents STRONG. It's slightly floral, very calming, and a tinge of sweet.
**Flutter ~ TIOLI ~

Okay this is one of my favorites, but it had to grow on me. At first, I thought it smelled very buttery which I didn't like. Once warmed, it smells really pleasant. Creamy, almond smell.
Fried Ice Cream (July BBMB) ~ TIOLI ~
This one is definetly yummy, but smells a lot like Cinnamon Vanilla to me. It has a more creamy smell to it since it is an ice cream scent.
**Mediterranean Spa ~ NAS ~

YUM O! This is one of my favorites. It's a definite man smell and very relaxing. Just smells like a fresh clean, man. Kinda like a nice fragrant soap.
Irish Cream (July BBMB) ~ NAS ~
This smells just like it says. An warm cup of coffee with a splash of Irish Cream. Yum!
Lemon Lavender (July BBMB) ~ NAS ~
This is a very clean smell that's more Lemon than Lavender. 
Watermelon Patch (July BBMB) ~ NT ~
I love the smell, but it didn't last long enough for me to purchase another bar.
Berry Tart ~ NAS ~
This is a great one for the kitchen. Smells very much like a country berry jam.
**Inner Peace ~ NAS ~
Oh man. I love this one SO MUCH. It smells like you've been cleaning and scrubbing your house all day with a nice floral aftertouch. I need bars and bars of this around.
**Happy Birthday ~ NAS ~
Smells exactly like a Funfetti cake mix. Super yummy.
**Pumpkin Marshmallow ~ NAS ~
One of my favorites. Smells very much like a Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte.
Whiteout ~ NAS ~
Very calming. Peppermint and cool. Not too overpowering. Just enough.
Peach a la Mode ~ NAS ~
I warmed this and warmed this and warmed this when I first received it. Very spring/summery. Smells like a creamy peach.
Hendrix ~ NAS ~
If you like incense, this is your perfect bar.
**Echo ~ NAS ~
Very warm. Very masculine. Woodsy & citrus. Reminds me of shaving cream.
**Just Breathe ~ NAS ~
When I first heard the description for this, I thought GROSS! Once I warmed it, it was awesome. Very soothing as the name says. Has been known to help people sleep better.
**My Wish ~ NAS ~
Oh wow. Can I please star this one 50 times? It's just perfection. Smells kinda marshmallow-y. Hard to explain but it's one of my top 3 favorites.
Enchanted Mist ~ TIOLI ~
It's a nice, clean, fresh fragrance with a touch of sweet, but it didn't really last long enough for me or leave that great of an impression.
Clean Breeze ~ NAS ~
Smells just like starchy laundry.
Black Raspberry Vanilla ~ NAS ~
Smells just like it sounds. A safe bet for a gift!
**Sugar Cookie ~ NAS ~
LOVE this one! Also a great fragrance to give as a gift. Nice, warm, vanilla cookie smell.
Lemon Coconut Chiffon ~ TIOLI

Smells just like it sounds. Not too lemon-y. Smells more like coconut and crust.
Lucky in Love ~ NAS
A super popular fragrance and a *dupe* of Victoria Secret Love Spell.
**Zeppelin ~ NAS
Obsessed with this one! If you want your home to smell like your ex boyfriend who wore Aqua di Gio, this is your scent!
Amber Road ~ TIOLI
Not for the faint of heart. A very tobacco type, rich, wood smelling scent.
Cucumber Lime ~ TIOLI
Very fresh smell. Nice balance of cucumber and lime.

  1. That is a huge collection! They aren't cheap, are they really worth the money? I'm very interested in purchasing some but I'm not sure yet.

  2. I loooove Scentsy! I have nine warmers (there is one in each room except for the kid's rooms,) the car circles and about a gazillion scents. Mister gets annoyed when I go to parties because he knows what's going to happen. lol

    I've only smelled a couple of the ones you've reviewed but "Simply Irresistible" is so clean smelling. I usually have that one in my bathrooms. The "Blueberry Cheesecake" always makes me hungry. lol

    Did you know that Scentsy is having a "Bring back" voting poll where you can vote to have one of the retired scents brought back?
