Scentsy, Inc. Expands to Europe

Published Tuesday, May 31, 2011 by Scentsy, Inc.
MERIDIAN, Idaho, USA (May 31, 2011) – Scentsy, Inc., the fastest growing consumer products company in the United States last year according  to Inc. Magazine, announced it has enrolled 180 Independent Consultants in Europe and sold more than $100,000 in products. The home fragrance company began offering its business opportunity and products in the United Kingdom and Germany last month and is already growing at a faster rate in Europe than it grew in its entire first year of operations in the U.S.
Scentsy’s flagship product is a scented, wickless candle heated in a decorative ceramic warmer. The company’s wickless candles provide all the benefits of a traditional candle without the risks of flame, soot, or smoke. Products range in price from £5 (€6) for a bar of fragrant wax to £30 (€35) for a full-size Scentsy warmer (VAT inclusive). Scentsy also offers free shipping on all party orders of £150 (€175) or more.
Scentsy products are sold through a party plan method by a network of Independent Consultants. The company manufactures its fragrant wax bars in France and distributes product from a facility in Poland to its European customers.  Additionally, Scentsy has trained staff in Europe to answer Consultant and customer questions in English and German.  The company plans to expand into more European countries by the end of 2011.
“This positive response to Scentsy leads us to believe our products will be as popular in Europe as in North America,” said Orville Thompson, Scentsy’s CEO and co-owner. Scentsy President Heidi Thompson said, “As Europeans are introduced to Scentsy, we are confident they will find our products an elegant way to have fragrance in their home without the risks of flame candles.”
Scentsy employs 800 people and had revenues of $380 million in 2010. It was recently ranked number 33 in the Direct Selling Industry’s 2011 list of top 100 global direct selling companies.  In addition to its newly enrolled Consultants in the United Kingdom and Germany, Scentsy has more than 110,000 Independent Consultants in the United States, Puerto Rico, Guam and Canada.

Scentsy Light Bulbs

When using Scentsy warmer, PLEASE only use Scentsy light bulbs... We sell them for a dollar each which I personally believe is cheaper than buying it at a store.  For that reason, I have heard using store bought bulbs has caused complications with the warmers.  If you need more light bulbs, PLEASE contact me to purchase some and I will be more than happy to cover the shipping costs!!

Understanding Fragrance Allergies

Fragrances causing allergic reactions can be found in many common everyday personal care products, including colognes, makeup, shampoos, antiseptics, and toothpaste. Even items such as cleaning supplies, laundry detergents, and insecticides may cause an allergic reaction in certain individuals. Doctors can test for fragrance allergies by using a screening agent called the fragrance mix. This is a combination of the eight individual fragrance ingredients that have been found to cause the majority of allergic reactions.
The fragrance mix includes:
  • Cinnamic alcohol -- a hyacinth like scent
  • Cinnamic aldehyde -- a warm and spicy with a hint of cinnamon
  • Eugenol -- a spicy odor of clove
  • Isoeugenol -- the odor of clove, but weaker than eugenol
  • Geraniol -- makes up the floral odor of rose and is found in palmarose oil, geranium oil, lavender oil, jasmine oil, and citronella oil
  • Alpha-amyl cinnamic alcohol -- creates a strong scent of jasmine
  • Hydroxycitronellal -- the fresh scent of lily of the valley
  • Oak moss absolute -- an earthy and woody fragrance
It has been estimated that fragrance allergies affect 1-2% of the general population. Fragrance allergies are most common in women of childbearing age, but can affect people regardless of age or gender.

Candles and Fragrance Allergies

Contrary to popular believe, having allergies doesn't necessarily prohibit you from enjoying home fragrance. Millions of allergy and/or asthma sufferers are able to be around scented candles with no problems. However, the fragrances used in candles can cause a problem in individuals with extreme sensitivities. Headaches or difficulty breathing are the most common symptoms of an allergic reaction to the scent used in a burning candle.
If you are a candle lover who struggles with fragrance allergies:
  • Invest in clean burning, environmentally-friendly soy candles. Studies have shown people with allergies tend to have fewer problems with scented soy candles compared to similar products made from paraffin wax.
  • Consider choosing candles made with essential oils. Some people who react poorly to artificial fragrances do not have problems with candles that use essential oils.
  • When possible, choose single note fragrances over those that contain multiple scents. A single fragrance, because it is less complex, may be less likely to cause an allergic reaction.
  • Always burn candles in a well-ventilated area.
  • Only burn richly scented candles for a short time or consider using a candle warmer to subtly disperse the scent.
When using Scentsy Wickless Candles, many people with serious allergy to candles are able to enjoy their products without having any reactions to it!! Come to my website at Shawnas Candles to order Scentsy products... You will actually enjoy having wickless candles in your home with extremely low risk of having allergy reactions.  Contact me if you have any questions.
