Scentsy Zodiac Gift Guide: Gemini - May 22 to June 21

Geminis are extremely intelligent, eloquent, and charming individuals. Their sharp mind and tongue makes them for entertaining companions.  
 


A byproduct of the Gemini’s intelligence and natural curiosity is that they quickly become bored with the status quo. This is apparent when you enter their home which is frequently revamped to incorporate the most current trends. 

The need for change makes Scentsy’s Etched Core  silhouette warmer with a Coil wrap an ideal gift for the Geminis in your life. Its contemporary design will suit the Gemini’s décor - And even better yet - it will delight the Gemini to find out the look of warmer can be easily changed by simply switching the wrap. 
 
 
When it comes to fragrances, Geminis enjoy bright scents, such as citrus and mint, sharp florals, such as lavender, and some nutty scents.  Here are some bars your Gemini will be sure to enjoy…

WatermelonMint’s surprising combination of sweet juicy watermelon and lively mint will appeal to the Gemini’s dual nature.


Gemini will be enchanted by Thunderstorm’s complex, fresh floral scent.


Scentsy’s bizarre Tomato Vine is a fantastic conversation starter, which makes it perfect for Geminis who love to chat.

Bizarrely Accurate: Tomato Vine


Scentsy’s new Spring/Summer 2014 fragrance offerings are pretty awesome. While it’s still too soon for me to have a favorite, I can tell you that hands down, Tomato Vine is the most unexpected!


When I saw the name I assumed that Tomato Vine would be an earthy green scent, that was inspired by juicy sun ripened tomatoes.  
I was wrong.

This fragrance is not inspired by tomato vines…

It smells exactly like a tomato vine. Scentsy wasn't kidding when they came up with this description.


I asked Peter to blind test this one to see if he had the same reaction. When I held up the test bar to his nose he knew right away that he recognized the scent, but even after repeated whiffs he couldn’t put his finger on exactly what it smelt like.   

When I finally revealed to Peter what the fragrance was he was also amazed with Scentsy’s accuracy.  


Peter just couldn’t guess the scent, since the smell of tomato vines is one of those life fragrances that we experience often enough but rarely stop to consciously register.  

 

Alright, so this thing smells exactly like a tomato vine... But would I recommend it?

Ahhhh that’s hard to say. 

I think that there are some people out there who would really enjoy it. People who love to tend to their vegetable gardens and want to transport themselves there during winter months… Or maybe vegetarians? (har har har)… Other than that perhaps a few people would like this as an occasional scent.   

But really, I think this fragrance is pretty bizarre and I couldn’t see myself wanting to have its sharp green smell wafting through my house very often.

So this is what I say to it...
