Scentsy Buddy vs Baby Scentsy Buddy: a comparison

During the Jolly Holiday sale, I was lucky enough to snag Ollie the Elephant and baby Ollie the elephant. How cute are these guys?!?!

I had never seen a "baby" buddy in person, and since I happen to now have two of the same animal, I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to do a side-by-side comparison for you guys!

Scentsy Recipe: Winterfell

Winterfell

(1 Winter Pine + 1 Whiteout)

Not bad! I mostly smelled the Whiteout at first, but then depending on where I was in the room, I'd be hit with some Winter Pine scent. My grandma's words: "It smells like Christmas up here!" I think this mix would be good for someone who like Winter Pine in theory, but thinks it's too strong on its own!

Very Snowy Spruce

Very Snowy Spruce

(Scent of the Month)

"Breathe in fresh forest air: balsam, spruce, and cedar branches embrace the warmth of amber and woody pinecones."

I wanted to love this one; I was expecting to love this one! Everyone said it smells JUST like a Christmas tree and I was so excited. It definitely does remind me Christmas tree, but for some reason, it also makes me nauseous! So disappointing. For that reason, I prefer Winter Pine or Iced Pine over this scent. 

Unfortunately, this one is a thumbs down for me.

Aussie Plum

Aussie Plum

(Spring & Summer)

"Mélange of juicy plum, pink grapefruit, and tart pomegranate with smooth vanilla"

Mmmm this one is yummy! I definitely smell the plum, among other things. To me, the mix of fruits almost has a floral quality to it. I hope this scent comes back this summer! For now, you might try Pomegranate Pear, as both have pomegranate notes in them with a slight floral feel (and they both make me feel happy!).

Thumbs up for this one!

German Chocolate

German Chocolate

(Bring Back My Bar)

"Decadent, moist chocolate cake, icing, and coconut."

Why oh why oh WHY would they *ever* retire this scent?!!? It smells just like chocolate - real chocolate, not fake candle chocolate, or yucky syrupy chocolate. This thing smells like the real deal! The coconut aspect of it is very faint, so faint you could almost miss it. I bet this would also mix well with sooooo many things, but I'm afraid to use up my last few cubes!

I give this scent a million stars. Super thumbs up! 

Just Breathe

Just Breathe

(Spa)

"Breathe deeply as soothing eucalyptus, zesty lemon, and a medley of mints comfort and rejuvenate."

Minty, but with a little citrus tang. Kind of reminds me of a Lifesaver candy, in a weird way? I'm not sure that this would be my go-to for "comfort" or "rejuvenation," but it is a nice scent. Upon first impression (sniffing the tester), I didn't think I'd like this fragrance, but I'm glad I gave it a chance anyway, as it was better than I expected!

I give this scent three stars! Pleasant, but not one of my favorites.
