Liza Jane Candle Company is a new candle and wax melt business in Waxahachie, Texas. Unlike most small wax vendors, Liza uses paraffin in her products instead of soy. I find that paraffin throws better than soy ("throw" is how far you can smell the scent in the room while it's melting).
The paraffin she uses is a special grade that intensifies the throw. And even though the temperature was in the 90's when I got these in the mail, they didn't melt at all! They are a bit soft and greasy like soy, and slightly sticky so that I had to use a butter knife to get a cube out of the clamshell, but that was not a problem at all; in fact, it was better than getting my fingers greasy!
Liza Jane Candle Company is now one of my new top favorite wax melt vendors. Those who know me know I have very high expectations when it comes to wax melts, and Liza Jane Candle Company exceeded every one of them. I liked most of the scents, and again, unlike most wax vendors, just about all of the wax melts had excellent throw! I even like her labels, which are classy and professional. Liza was wonderful to work with, professional, and an all-around nice person who provided exceptional customer service. And if all of that weren't enough, 2% of all sales goes to Parkinson's Disease Research for a cure!

Angel Wings
Notes: A powdery bouquet of rose, jasmine and hawthorne enhanced by fresh vanilla, musk and wood
I love this scent! It's primarily a baby powder scent, but there's something else, a very sweet floral note like jasmine, and a little musk. Looking at the scent notes, I don't smell rose, wood or vanilla, and I don't know what hawthorne smells like.
Throw: Bold, 5 out of 5, a scent monster that took over the entire house!
Butt Naked
Notes: A saucy blend of melons, strawberries, pears and fresh green apples
I've smelled this scent before, and it smells like super sweet cherries with a watermelon note and a little bit of a tropical fruit note, and maybe rich vanilla (although it's definitely not a bakery scent). Very nice! Looking at the scent notes, I don't smell apples, and not really the strawberries either, although what I think is cherry is probably a combination of all those fruits.
Throw: Strong, 4 out of 5
Cashmere
Notes: A warm, herbal musky fragrance with a light musk base woven with notes of muguet, sandalwood, creamy vanilla and patchouli, with top notes of mandarin and lime
I can't figure out the notes in this one. It's kind of sweet and girly, but not overly sweet like Pink Sugar. Not really soapy either, and not a perfumey scent. Maybe a smidgen of sandalwood way in the background? Cashmere is actually a warm, rich, ambery perfumey scent, but this scent is not that at all. Looking at the scent notes, I definitely don't smell mandarin (orange) or lime. I think I detect a bit of the musk, and possibly a smidgen of patchouli. It's a pleasant scent, but just kind of "meh" for me (but just because it wasn't my favorite doesn't mean it won't be yours!)
Throw: Strong, 3.5 out of 5
Cowboy Leather
Notes: Smells like the inside of a saddle shop
Yep, it's leather, and it smells great! Also makes a great mixer... smells fantastic when mixed with pine, woodsy, patchouli or cologne scents.
Throw: Bold, 5 out of 5, a scent monster that took over the entire house!
Cranberry Chutney
This smells like a combination of maraschino cherry and cranberry, or maybe cranberry with a candy note. It's fresh and sweet with some cranberry tanginess. It's not an authentic cranberry scent, but I still really like it.
Throw: Strong, 3.5 out of 5
Dreamy Vanilla
A sweet rich vanilla buttercream. Scent started dissipating within 2 hours.
Throw: Strong, 3.5 out of 5
Fresh Cut Bamboo
This is not really a bamboo scent, as bamboo has a nutty coconut note. But it's fantastic! It smells like hothouse flowers, a combination of honeysuckle and jasmine with watery and grassy green notes that keep it from being too sweet or perfumey. Unfortunately, the scent started dissipating within 1.5 hour.
Throw: Strong, 3.5 out of 5
Grapefruit
Fantastic zesty white grapefruit scent. It's not a sweet pink grapefruit. It might have a smidgen of lemon in it. Nice and thirst-quenching!
Throw: Bold, 5 out of 5, a scent monster that took over the entire house!
Icicles
Notes: Ozone and cypress with mid notes of jasmine and spice on a base of cedar, sugar and moss
I've smelled this scent before, and it's fantastic. It's a raw wood scent, like a birch or light wood, with a fresh note, and maybe also mint (fresh mint, not peppermint or spearmint) and maybe a bit of eucalyptus and possibly a smidgen of pine. But it's not a pine scent. It's a nice wintery scent. Looking at the scent notes, no mint! And I don't smell jasmine or sugar, as it's not sweet at all and there are no floral notes.
Throw: Bold, 5 out of 5, a scent monster that took over the entire house!
Inner Peace
Notes: Energizing notes of cherry & almond blended with notes of neroli, orange flower, jasmine and strawberry. Base notes of cotton candy, vanilla, and raspberry.
I can't figure out what I'm smelling, but it's pleasant. It smells like soap with maybe a subtle citrus or orange note, and maybe a bit of floral, and possibly a smidgen of vanilla. It's a little sweet, but not perfumey. Looking at the scent notes, I don't smell most of those notes! On cold sniff it's not a fruity scent, but when melted I definitely smell the fruit, although it's more like fruit scented soap with an orangey note.
Throw: Strong, 3.5 out of 5
Jasmine Orchidea
Notes: Blend of jasmine, orange blossom and rose with a hint of sheer musk
A nice perfumey scent with jasmine and a hint of something else. Looking at the scent notes, I don't smell rose at all, and not really orange blossom (which is a scent I love).
Throw: Strong, 3.5 out of 5
Key Lime Pie
A sweet creamy lime scent. When melted, it has a hint of a lime scented cleaner note, but not in a bad way. It's a fresh, summery scent.
Throw: Medium, 3.5 out of 5
Midnight Cowboy
Notes: Notes of citrus, bergamot, sea salt and amber wood
A fresh "Cool Water" type men's cologne or body wash. I like it.
Throw: Strong, 3.5 out of 5
Peach
A nice peach scent, kind of authentic. It's a sour peach rather than a sweet peach, but if you like sweet peach, it smells fantastic mixed with Dreamy Vanilla!
Throw: Strong, 3.5 out of 5
Pink Sugar
Notes: A fruity blend of cotton candy, lemon drops, caramel and raspberry jam on a dry down of musk
I love the Pink Sugar scent, no matter who makes it. It's like a combination of a pre-teen girl's perfume, cotton candy, and a hint of raspberry. I don't smell lemon, but I do smell the musk of the perfume, and maybe a smidgen of the caramel although it's not a foodie scent at all. Fantastic!
Throw: Strong, 4 out of 5
Wine & Roses
Notes: Red roses mixed with red wine
This smells exactly like the scent name: roses and wine. The rose is the predominant note, but I also detect a sweet grapey wine. It's a nice, interesting combination.
Throw: Strong, 3.5 out of 5
