I thought I'd run out and get one tomorrow (have coupon, already on sale) before company comes, but I didn't know what exactly it smelled like, and don't have time to waste a trip if I don't like it =)

Is it like a pine tree? Is it strong? Does it smell good?

I'm not particularly fond of pine tree smell, that's why I wonder...

Thanks!
 
smells like a fresh cut christmas tree to me--not certain what "pine" smells like, however. i like the scent but it is a bit strong. plan to buy more for the holidays.
 
It's very balsam-y. I use the housewarmers in the room with my fake tree and a lot of people are fooled!
 
I couldn't think of what tree it smells like to me, but I think mcnuss is on the money with balsam.

I really like the smell. I don't find it super strong, although I only have it in votive form. Just ordered anoter one online tonight. :)

The tart version will knock you out of the room. To me, it is very strong.

I think Mistletoe smells like Balsalm Fir only deeper and more "woodsy". It really is a beautiful scent.

Hmm, good to know. I'll have to be careful with the little pillar I ordered. :)
 
unless it's a tart used with the electric warmer i doubt you'll be overpowered by scent. those warmers REALLY put out the scent--that's why i love 'em! a former roommate left one at my place a while back & i've gotten hooked using the tarts. different scents affect my moods along with music--i like playing around with that. as far as the "mistletoe" scent goes, i find it to be the best holiday scent ever.

You shouldn't have any problem with the pillar, but holy crow, some of those tarts are strong.
 
I just smelled this one the other day in the store and thought it was really nice...not too sweet like some of the other holiday scents. It seemed a bit lighter than the x-mas tree one.
 
I love Misletoe at Christmas time and usually have a tart burning in my living room since we have a fake tree! ;) People are amazed because when you walk in the house, it really smells like a fresh cut tree!! :)
 
I just bought one today and wow, it smells like we have a fresh cut Christmas tree in the house and we aren't buying it till tomorrow
 
I have 5 electric frangrance burners and two large jars of Mistletoe burning now. Along with; (candles) Pumpkin pie, Cinnamon and Christmas Wreath.
(electric frangrace burners - home sweet home (3).)

Upstairs I have 7 frangrace burners in Island Mango and one Clean Cotton (laundry room).

I have over 15 electric frangrace burners throughout my home.... I love them!

Oh yeah, and earlier I baked brownies!

The house smells great!
 
Thanks for all your thoughts! I made a trip up to BB&B, and with it being on sale and with my coupon, I got the Housewarmer for $11 after tax! =)

I think it smells pretty good, and have it burning right now =)
