I ordered 10 scents of melts from this company because they cost...are you ready? $1.90 each. I was in tart heaven! They have a very unique selection of scents and lots of neat blends. I could have easily ordered twice what I did. My favorite so far is buttered spritz cookies.
The throw on these tarts is great. I could smell them before they had melted completely.
The site states that you have to order in multiples of 3, but if you aren't a wholesale account you can change the number to 1 in the shopping cart.
The customer service was great. I received e-mails back in a timely manner when I had questions. The only thing I would change is the comparatively long turn around time, but it's well worth the wait.

After reading Dawn's review, I had to give this company a try! As mentioned, the wait time is long, and it took 3 weeks for me to receive my order. Though the anticipation was killing me, the wait was worth it: I ordered several different scents in the tarts and am happy, overall. So far, I have only tried two: Island Rainforest and Tropical Sunrise. They are nicely scented but don't cast a huge throw; however, that may be the nature of these particular scents. They are a little difficult to get out of the container since they are very soft soy wax, but the prices are terrific! I'll update after trying more...
***Update***
I have now tried all of these tarts and am fairly impressed. The scents last a long time and, while I am not in love with the island rainforest and rainshower fresh scents themselves (probably just me since I don't usually go for "clean" scents), I did like the hot apple pie, vanilla bean noel and tropical sunrise and am pleased overall with the scent throw and long-life of these tarts.

Poor Scent Throw

I purchased heaps of Soysprouts to sample their many scents. I don't recommend these for much else as they're too small for a decent scent throw. Although I suppose you may be able to use these as Tealights. They have so many great scents but some have a scent that is so mild or light that it's very hard to distinguish. Commendable Scent Range.
I purchased some melts and these were fantastic. Good scent throw and highly recommended. Only Sold in packs of 10.
I also purchased Jars in 8 and 16 oz. Unfortunately very disappointing scent throw compared with other companies sampled. Even the large jars didn't reach very far on scent. I'm unsure whether this may be due to the actual scent itself or the amount of scent put into the jar. In any case both did't fair too well.
Finally a comment on Cleanliness of Burn and the Wick - Mostly clean burning although there was some wax left on the sides of the jars so not as clean burning as other companies sampled. Wicks do mushroom and require a bit more trimming than usual but overall okay.
Highly recommend the melts for good scent throw but not the jars. Some scents don't smell at all. However I would still recommend this company because of the HUGE SCENT SELECTION.
