Hey, It’s Ciara 💜
We’re developing some new fragrance concepts this week which got me looking back at some of the products we’ve created over the last few years. Not every idea became the bestseller I was very convinced it would… 😂 But every one taught us something! Here are 4 products we created that didn't work, and what we learnt from them.
1. Cocoa Butter Kisses
Every bit of market research told us that chocolate-scented laundry probably wouldn’t work...but you all loved the concept, so we decided to take the risk. What I learned is sometimes you have to take a risk and challenge the market research, and sometimes the market research might actually be worth listening to 😂
We're now on our final bottles, so if you loved this one or it sounds like a scent you'd enjoy, you can enjoy it here for a limited time! https://www.tallow-ash.com/collections/cocoa-butter-kisses
2. Candy Beach
It started strong and the fragrance itself had such lovely feedback – but the branding didn’t communicate the scent as clearly as it needed to. I learnt that creating a great fragrance is only half the job. The name, packaging and story around it can be just as important as the product itself.
If you loved Candy Beach, our Aurora scent range is very similar, and lots of our customers say it's an amazing replacement for Candy Beach lovers. Try it here: https://www.tallow-ash.com/collections/aurora
3. Bahama Vibes
Coconut is familiar, summer-y and already loved in laundry - What could go wrong? 😂What I learnt is that familiarity can make a product easy to understand but being different is often what makes it memorable!
4. When Life Gives You Lemons
When we first released the concept, you loved the fragrance, the colour, the name - so we got to work bringing it to life! But bright, citrus-heavy fragrances can be more technically challenging when it comes to achieving the strength and longevity we expect in laundry. We loved the scent, but we wanted more longevity!
If you loved this scent or would like to try it, we still have refills available here: https://www.tallow-ash.com/collections/when-life-gives-you-lemons
While not every product becomes a best seller... every launch teaches us something. What you order, what you feedback, and even what you don’t choose helps shape how we develop the next idea. And that’s why we love involving you from the very beginning! 💜

Patchouli is always a good smell

My all time favorites are Candy Beach, Golden Oud and Celestial! I am devastated all of them are discontinued. I ordered Celestial a couple of weeks ago, and happy to have paid for a couple of the last remaining bottles, only to have my order canceled and a free stain remover sent instead! If I’d wanted a stain remover I’d have bought one. Seriously considering dropping my subscription now as the scents don’t seem to last as long these days either.

I loved country club and enigma was my favourite masculine smell. I am now back on the celestial, I hope it stays, this current batch has a good strong smell

I would trade you my arm to bring back bahama vibes. I’m on the last of my fabric spray and desperately trying to stretch it out as far as I can!

I really loved When life gives you Lemons
Very refreshing and my bedding smelt luss and the room too.
Please restock
