heirloomoriginals Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 wasn't it the scent that Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise had at their wedding? I think it would make me gag!Steph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sudsnwicks Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 I didn't pay attention to their wedding, 'cos don't like TC. You mean they had candles of this scent? I can't imagine coffee and rose together combined would smell good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TxSioux Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 Yep, that's what TomKat used for their wedding - I was wondering when the public would start asking for this one. They ordered 6,000 coffee & rose candles from a local chandler. I asked another group if this was 1 candle w/ both scents combined or if it was each scent in individual candles?? I, too, thought that was a really funky combo & even tried the q-tip test. It sucked, but in all fairness, I didn't have an actual coffee fo to test. I have Vanilla Almond Coffee, but it SO didn't mix well w/ rose. Could someone who has these fo's on hand please test them & tell us if it's worth mixing? I think Tom Cruise is crazy as a loon, so it must have been his idea!! But, hey -- I'll mix it & sell it if people want it!Susan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trish Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 Ewwww! What a horrible combo! Sorry, Cindy, I can't help you. That just sounds nasty! If your customer is requesting it based on a celebrity wedding, I'd probably suggest that it was not one candle with both scents, but that they ordered some COFFEE candles and some ROSE candles...

celicagtca Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 I had made up a bunch of those recently and if you get the ratio of Rose to Coffee just right...it does smell really nice. More top notes of the rose with bottom notes of coffee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TxSioux Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 So, what is the ratio of rose to coffee? It's not easy for me, since I truly hate rose, but it sells well - so I spend a few days getting myself ready & tough it out. Is it like, 2-1?Susan.
