I am currently burning this in my home. Excellent CT & HT! One of my favorite fragrances! This is not the traditional sweet pumpkin fragrance oils! Added to my fall line! Fast shipping & outstanding customer service!!
What a strange scent. This has gone from very earthy can't describe scent to gingerbread and now 4 wks into curing my CP soap it smells like Root Beer.
I love this scent because it doesn't smell like every other pumpkin scent. It smells wonderful!
Personally not my favorite.
This isn't your typical pumpkin scent. It's slightly smokey notes give it a much richer, more sophisticated feel. I LOVE this fragrance!
Took my melts to a work market and everyone loved them. They kept commenting on how its just the right amount of spice with the pumpkin smell, not overly spiced and overpowered by the cinnamon smell they picked up on. Will have to keep this one for next year's markets!
Love this one! Very strong in my parasoy wax melts
Great fragance. Just what I expected.
I haven't burned this yet, but out of the bottle it's good and the cold throw is amazing!! It's warm and comforting.
I love pumpkin everything, but I find the regular pumpkin spice scents so boring. This is not that... absolutely beautiful! I mixed with a bit of coffee scent to make a pumpkin espresso scent, and couldn't get the scent out of my nose for days! HT was amazing, even when I accidentally used the wrong wick that was 4 sizes too small! Different enough from most typical pumpkin or pumpkin gourmands, I just love it.
I’m so glad I purchased this. This fragrance is everything I love pumpkin spice but sometimes I feel like it could be a little bit much and I really wasn’t too sure on what this smell like to me. It reminds me of like a pumpkin spice latte, but not too much cinnamon and I absolutely love it. It’s really light absolutely pleasant. I made body butter with this fragrance in. I will be making candles as well.
Reminds me of a day at the pumpkin patch! Plus, the first batch sold out so fast, I have a wait list for more!
Simplemente espectacular, un fragante aroma otoño, especias y a esa cercania de la navidad, la compré para probar y repetí para crear....
first off, this scent smells nasty in the bottle like super gross I wasn't even going to bother testing it but I did thankfully. its totally 100% different in wax!!
has a great CT & HT. this isn't very pumpkiny- the rest of the notes really balance it out
In love with this oil me and my wax dots & Candles thank you Midwest! 😉
Smells great, different but unique and i love it
Heirloom Pumpkin smells nice. It's not my favorite but I would diffantly use it for blending. It needs to be a little stronger I think. The smell is wonderful I just need it bumped up a little.
I don't have anything to compare this to. Its unique and complex and just fantastic. Blended in wax the hot throw is incredible. I highly recommend this scent if you love Fall. It is not your run-of-the-mill pumpkin spice either. Trust me.
This is my favorite pumpkin fragrance oil! I found a great pumpkin rum cake that I loved. Past tense! I didn't realize how much I loved this scent until I walked downstairs and my whole first floor smelled like this scent. I thought pumpkin Cashmere. But no, I think it definitely smells like a pumpkin chia. This is definitely an upscale pumpkin & it's beautiful! I smell pumpkin, clove and vanilla. I have tons of pumpkin scents. This is my favorite. You have to try this one. It's amazing! Excellent work m.w. Thank You for a scent I will use all year long!
The best pumpkin fragrance!
Obsessed!!
Love this! Throws so well in coconut wax. Just enough spice!!
This is going to be wonderful in candles, melts, foaming hand soaps and room spray!
Heirloom Pumpkin is really nice and spicy. You get the rosemary and oak that grounds it so well. It’s definitely not gourmand like any of the other pumpkin FOs. Hoping it will stick in soap!
