Order of the Odor | Volume 11


Happy Summer! We here at the Order hope your days are bright and sunny and the wax is melting in the warmers and not the mail boxes. Please join us in answering this month's questions:

If you could create any theme for a wax tart collection what would it be? What three scents would you have in this themed collection?


This is a really fun question that got my wax brain turning! I decided on a TRAVEL theme since I am writing this post from the Land Down Under - Australia! I decided to have the three scents be based on Singapore and countries I have visited this year - Australia and The Philippines

Garden City (Singapore): Take a morning stroll through this city in a garden and let the fresh cut grass, sweet-smelling bougainvilleas, seductive frangipanis and woodsy rain trees refresh you before you start another busy day!

G'Day Mates! (Brisbane): As you walk through the bustling Australian city of Brisbane, take a deep breath and inhale the scent of Flat White coffee, fresh air and blue skies.

Halo Halo (The Philippines): A popular dessert in The Philippines! Layer mixed fruits of cantaloupe, sweet potato and coconut, top with ice, a scoop of vanilla ice cream, a little drizzle of sweet condensed, and you have got a dessert to beat the Filipino heat!

Deb melted a tart from Dessa's recently that was so good, so strong that she is even saving it to melt and reuse again! It is a delicious fruity bakery that she thinks you need to try before she scoops them all up for herself. You've been warned.

Sunnee's Rosegirls sampler came this past month and it will full of brightly colored and highly fragrant chunks of happiness. See which ones stood out as her favorites and which just didn't make the cut. Get ready to feast your eyes!

Flaming Star Scents used to be Pic, Petals and Scents and Liz recently melted a nice huge chunk from PPS that has had plenty of cure time! So how did this old wax perform? And what has Liz been up to lately?

Subscription box popularity is going as strong as ever. Lauren bought a box recently that any waxy home fragrance lover would enjoy. It comes with three tiers of price points, amazing packaging and high quality candles to boot. Ready to be enabled?

Thirty Street Crafts creates a fun themed wax release about every month. June's release was built around a circus theme. Julie scooped up an order of her very favorite wax tart shape to date... any guesses?

Who doesn't love a "Favorites" post?! Michelle lays it out for us and lists her all time Top 5 Vendors for us and why in her most recent post. The best part? You can order from almost all of them right now!

  3. Sorry I didn't get to this sooner, I am so far behind on posts! I LOVE your idea for a travel theme! I love the word frangipangis too, lol! G'Day Mates!, air and coffee?! YOU ARE SO CREATIVE! Umm, YUM. This sounds like what I want to do right now, lol! Coffee and air! :) Halo Halo sounds incredible. Wow, what a unique scent! I haven't heard of anything quite like that.
