    Samples were helpful

    It made sampling scents a breeze. I only wish that I had gotten all the scents became I am about to have to buy the sample oils for the ones I'm curious about, but didn't get. Great scents.

    Helpful but could be better...

    I wasn't planning on leaving a review, however, I got a couple emails that kept asking for me to leave a review, so here goes...I love the idea of being able to smell the scents before purchasing...was around $15 including shipping to receive the package. The description says you will receive "around" 30. I received 29 and 2 scents were duplicated so that left me with 27 samples. I wish I could have ordered the version that was all plant-based but they were and are still "sold out".

    I ended up placing a 2nd order for a few bottles that should arrive in the next few days so I can try them with my new candle line. The scents are very unique and definitely smell high end. You won't find anything called campfire marshmallow or black raspberry vanilla lol! So it was very refreshing to smell 27 different yet elevated scents, although, I think the attention to detail, especially for a first time customer, would've resulted in more stars. Suggestion: offer a coupon for the amount spent for the samples for a new customers to use for thier sample inspired order? Just a thought...since you asked 😉

    Hi S.B., thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. We appreciate you sharing your experience with our smelling samples, and are sorry to hear that the set did not fully meet your expectations. Providing an accurate representation of our fragrances is extremely important to us, which is why we aim to include as many samples as possible in each set.

    We understand your disappointment at receiving a couple of duplicate samples (these are still picked/packed by hand), and will be sure to let our team know. As you noted, the smelling samples are intended to give a general idea of the olfactive character, and we always recommend trying the full-strength oils in product for a true evaluation.

    We will be receiving a new shipment of smelling samples at the end of the month, at which point we will plant-based only set will become available again.

    We're glad to hear that you found the scents unique and elevated, and we look forward to hearing your thoughts once you've had a chance to work with the oils themselves. Thank you again for your valuable feedback : )

    Good way to smell some samples

    I liked some, I didn't like some, but this was a nice way to smell a handful of scents. I get scent saturation after a few, so I would smell a couple, make some notes, and smell more the next day. I think some come through better on the sample strips, fwiw. $15 after shipping is about the most I'd pay, but there were good scents that I'll order
