Pros: great customer service. Linda is a sweetheart ! Great packaging, quick ship. Prices excellent
Cons: none

Linda threw in LOTS of extras to try and some candy too (her trademark)She is currently taking a vacation but will have more to choose from on Ebay after April 15. try them!


Fruit Slices (tart)> Top notes of orange/tangerine with sugary bottom notes. Reminds me of those candy orange slices with sugary coating. Refreshing. Tried in kitchen area. Had a moderate throw for about 4 hours. Just me but I don't care for the candy scents **


Republican (tart)>smelled very floral, Strong throw initially. Top notes of stargazer Lillies,subtle rose bottom notes of citrus. I wasn't crazy about this scent. It was too perfumy but then the strong initial throw diminished somewhat after about 2 hour and the next 6 hours+ mostly the Lilly scent lingered. Give it a try if you like Stargazer Lillies***


Amish Quilt (tart bars)>Tried this again in a bedroom, melted quickly releasing top notes of cinnamon with bottom notes of vanilla. I love this scent. I can see why alot of people like it. I could still smell it the next morning. Long lasting! 5 stars!*****


Butter Brickle (tart bars)>Tried again in another bedroom upstairs. This is such a strong throw from 1 square off the tart bar. The scent lingers. I love this as much as the Amish Quilt. They are similar but this has buttery notes. My daughter said it smelled yummy. Another winner at my house!*****

Monkey Farts> a fun scent kids will love. Cold smell very yummy. Good scent throw initially but not as long lasting as her others imo***


Spiritual Awakening> reminded me of baby powder and a florist shop rolled into one. Not crazy about this one but some may like it. I could imagine my grandmother loving this scent. Cozy.Scent throw moderate. I threw it out after 3 hours..my nose didn't like it but my daughter's did so try it because it might well be your favorite!***


Grandma's Kitchen> cold throw was so yummy but I was disappointed in the scent throw. I could barely smell it in my powder room unless I put my nose right over the melt pool. Smelled wonderful and if it had a better throw I would have listed it in my top 10 favs. Maybe I will try again and see if it was a batch problem***


Vanilla Oak>very masculine fragrance. Just not liking this but some absolutely love this so personal preference!Scent throw very strong..reminds me of Old Spice!***


Just Peachy>clamshell. I though I would love this hot because the cold smell was true fresh cut peach. No throw at all when hot. I threw it out because after 3 hours I could not smell unless my nose was over the melt pool. Possibly another batch problem. I might give it another try because cold it was one of the best peach scents I have smelled!***


Bermuda Triangle> I am not a tropical fruit scent lover but this is wonderful and a crowd pleaser if you like tropical fruity scents. Good strong throw. I enjoyed it!****


update:4/20/07
I gave away the rest of my Spiritual awakenings to my neighbor but after going to her home and smelling it a second time, I ordered more..It is a really strong tart.
I think her Amish quilt is also the strongest and lasts over a 2 day period so I ordered more of that too.

Pros: great pricing, fast shipping
Cons: none

I got a great deal on thses tarts from ebay. Plus she threw in lots of freebies. The shipping was very fast and the communication very courteous. I let the tarts sit for a while, and they are strong!
