BBWs Wallflower plug ins no longer work. What do you recommend for your home scent?
 
I got a wax melt warmer as a present and have been happy with the throw. It's not something I use constantly though, just when the mood strikes.

I agree that the wallflower plugs only seem to last about a year.
 
I find the BBW wallflowers are hit or miss. Mostly miss. I remember an employee tell me they
get those returned all the time.

I'm another one that uses wax melts or fragrance oils(natural if possible). I'm sensitive to smells so
use infrequently.
 
Harry Slatkin wall plug ins and his candles love them all. Worth the cost for no soot, consistent long scent and beautiful dispensers/jars etc. I buy on qvc but sometimes Will luck out at home goods or bbb

So his plug ins work well?
 
I like something that i can use while not at home. Unfortunely the wallflowers are over. They hardly work at all now.
 
I'm a mix of candles, sprays and essential oils. We try not to use most of the BBW products since a lot of the plug ins and candles can be toxic and while I'm not a hippy lady at all, I do find that many of their products just end up giving my whole family headaches and make our eyes burn, so if I do use any of the candles that we get as gifts, it's short lived and I extinguish them covered. I really do love the way the candles smell but it's just not a good mix for my family.

Sand & Fog has some great natural candles that smell amazing and you can find them at Marshalls/Home Goods/TJ Maxx. I also like Grow for room/fabric sprays. I found it a while ago in IG and it's overpriced for what it is and won't last as long as say Fabreze but I'm guessing it's because it's all plant based stuff.

I also like EOs in the diffuser. I actually have a few disney scents from Magic Candle Co that I really like but some of the scents make me hungry LOL. Otherwise I stick with pretty basic scents like vanilla, citrus, etc.

I also on occasion will do a hot pot in the crock pot if I'm going to have people over, depending on the time of year I'll switch up what I keep in it but for fall/winter I'll do oranges, cinnamon, apples, rosemary and for summer I'll do lemon/lime, citrus, coconut, vanilla, rosemary, etc. It's an easy way to keep your house smelling good all day. It's just not an often/all the time thing since it's a waste of food.
 
I also use a wax melt/wax warmer. I've got one in the kitchen and one in my bedroom. I live in an open-ish plan apartment, so the kitchen one really carries into the living room. If you're thinking of trying one, I suggest getting one with a timer, so you don't forget to turn it off! (That's a big reason why I don't use candles anymore :upsidedow )

We got the warmers at Bed Bath, and the wax melts you can get quite cheaply at Walmart or Big Lots. Even the Yankee Candle ones aren't too bad.
