How we manufacture our Lavender & Lemon wax melts

We slowly warm and blend our soy wax, fragrance, and colours so that the fragrance oil is infused into the wax. If we rush this process or get the temperature wrong, the fragrance will either burn off during manufacturing or won't cast when you use it.


May cause an allergic skin reaction. If irritation or contact with the eyes occurs, rinse well with soap and water. If swallowed, seek immediate medical advice. Use in well-ventilated areas. Keep out of reach of children and pets. Dispose of contents in accordance with your local regulations.


Scent of a Woman is a 1992 American drama film produced and directed by Martin Brest that tells the story of a preparatory school student who takes a short-term job near Thanksgiving as a companion/assistant to a retired Army lieutenant colonel who is blind, depressed, and irritable.


The film was shot primarily around New York state, and also on location at Princeton University. Scenes were shot at the Emma Willard School, an all-girls school in Troy, New York; and at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel and the Fieldston School in New York City.


The film had a limited theatrical release on December 23, 1992, expanding nationwide on January 8, 1993. It received generally positive responses from critics and was a box office success. Pacino won the Academy Award for Best Actor for his performance. The film was nominated for Best Director, Best Picture and Best Screenplay Based on Material Previously Produced or Published.[2]


Charlie Simms is a scholarship student at Baird, an exclusive New England preparatory school. A woman hires him to watch over her uncle, retired Army Lieutenant Colonel Frank Slade, over Thanksgiving weekend. Charlie accepts so he can buy a plane ticket home to Gresham, Oregon for Christmas. He discovers Frank to be a highly decorated, blind Vietnam War veteran who has become an alcoholic.


Charlie and student George Willis, Jr. witness three classmates set up a prank to humiliate the headmaster, Mr. Trask. Afterward, Trask learns of the two witnesses and unsuccessfully presses them to name the perpetrators. He privately threatens Charlie with withdrawing the recommendation he has already made that Charlie be accepted by Harvard University. Trask sets a meeting of the school disciplinary committee to take place the Monday after the Thanksgiving weekend.


Frank Slade unexpectedly takes Charlie on a trip to New York City, and arranges their stay at the Waldorf-Astoria hotel. During dinner in the Oak Room at the Plaza Hotel, Frank reveals that the goals of his trip are to stay at a luxurious hotel, enjoy good food and wine, visit his older brother, and have sex with a "terrific" woman. Afterward he intends to commit suicide.


On Thanksgiving Day they pay an uninvited visit to Frank's brother at his home in White Plains. Frank provokes everyone at dinner, which ends up in a confrontation with his nephew Randy, who reveals that Frank was not blinded heroically in combat but showing off juggling live grenades for a group of younger officers.


As the pair return to New York City, Charlie mentions his problem at school. Frank advises Charlie to turn informant and take advantage to go to Harvard. He warns that George will probably submit to Trask's pressure, so Charlie should act first and get the benefit. While at a restaurant, Frank notices the scent of a young woman waiting for her date. He introduces himself and offers to teach her the tango. The evening ends with Frank having sex with a high-class escort, completing the stated objectives of his trip.


Despondent the next morning, Frank is uninterested in any suggestions for that day until Charlie suggests going for a ride. A former Ferrari owner, Frank talks the salesman into letting them take a convertible for a test ride. Once on the road, Frank becomes depressed again, until Charlie allows him to drive. Guided by Charlie's eyes and commands, Frank is elated until he is pulled over by a policeman. Frank talks the officer into letting them go without revealing that he is blind.


After returning the car, Frank again becomes despondent. He jaywalks into rushing traffic on Park Avenue, and narrowly avoids being struck by multiple cars. When they return to the hotel, Frank sends Charlie to buy cigars. Charlie leaves but becomes suspicious and returns to find Frank donning his dress uniform, preparing to commit suicide with his service pistol. Frank backs down after Charlie convinces him that he has much to live for and should face his circumstances courageously.


On Monday morning, Charlie and George are subjected to a formal inquiry by the Baird disciplinary committee in front of the student body. Frank unexpectedly arrives and sits with Charlie. George's father counsels George to dissemble yet identify the perpetrators. George, Jr., provides tentative identifications but claims he was not wearing his contact lenses, and shifts confirming them to Charlie.


Charlie refuses to do so, resulting in Trask recommending his expulsion. Frank gives a speech defending Charlie, and obliquely mentions a bribe attempt. He denounces Baird for not living up to its own standards and urges the committee to value Charlie's integrity. The disciplinary committee places the instigators on probation, denies George credit for naming them, and excuses Charlie from the proceedings.


As Charlie escorts Frank to his limousine, political science professor Christine Downes, a member of the disciplinary committee, commends Frank for his speech. Frank flirts with Christine, and impresses her by knowing the name of her perfume. Charlie accompanies Frank home, where Frank happily greets his niece's children.


The remake rights to Dino Risi's Profumo di donna were purchased by Ovidio G. Assonitis and first slated for presale by Ronald DeNeef's Rainbow International at MIFED in October 1988, alongside Assonitis' Beyond the Door III and Midnight Ride (then called Nowhere to Run).[4] When Assonitis became Chairman of Cannon Pictures Inc. in 1989, he announced that his films currently in development and production, including the remake of Scent of a Woman, would be made and released under the Cannon banner.[5] By May 1990, Cannon Pictures had entered into an agreement with Universal Pictures to produce the film. [6] in 1991, Bo Goldman was hired to write the screenplay. He later said, "If there is a moral to the film, it is that if we leave ourselves open and available to the surprising contradictions in life, we will find the strength to go on."[7] Martin Brest was approached to direct the film in April 1991, and chose this film over another potential remake he was presented with, a remake of Death Takes a Holiday (which was later made and released by Universal as Meet Joe Black starring Brad Pitt, Claire Forlani and Anthony Hopkins.)[8] By early August, Brest had officially signed on and Al Pacino was being sought for the lead. [9] Pacino officially signed on the following month.[10]


Such rising young actors as Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, Brendan Fraser, Anthony Rapp, Randall Batinkoff, Dante Basco, Chris Rock, and Stephen Dorff were auditioned for the role of Charlie Simms[11][12][13] before Chris O'Donnell was cast in November 1991.[14] Jack Nicholson was offered the role of Lt. Col. Frank Slade but turned it down.[15]


Some criticized the film for its length.[24] Variety's Todd McCarthy said it "goes on nearly an hour too long".[25] Newsweek's David Ansen writes that the "two-character conceit doesn't warrant a two-and-a-half-hour running time".[26]


Al Pacino won an Academy Award for Best Actor, the first of his career after four previous nominations for Best Actor. It was his eighth overall nomination. Ovidio G. Assonitis, who had originated the project and chose to go uncredited on the final cut of the film, took out a full page advert in Variety congratulating Tom Pollock, Universal Pictures and Martin Brest for making the adaptation successful and praising Pacino on his Oscar win.[29]


Yoo Min-woo's (Song Seung-heon) first love was Seo Eun-hye (Shin Ae). However, Eun-hye gets into a car accident and dies. Without Min-woo's knowledge, her parents decide to donate her organs. Shim Hye-won (Son Ye-jin) has suffered from a possibly fatal heart disease ever since childhood. Miraculously, she finds that she will be obtaining a heart from a donor, the deceased Eun-hye.


Suffering from the pain of losing his girlfriend, Min-woo goes to Italy to study, with the memories of Eun-hye still lingering in his heart. When he returns to Korea, fate takes a turn and brings Hye-won and Min-woo together. When the two first meet at the airport, Hye-won's heart (Eun-hye's heart) oddly beats faster when she is around Min-woo.
