Re: WHAT A SURPRISE!

Hi geezerette! Thank you for posting the picture! These are so beautiful! Since I'm enjoying my Wen Men, I haven't opened the packs yet. I was on Chaz's fan page and people were asking about these and I saw that they are only with "some" gallons. Someone mentioned the blessing ones. I only got Wen Men but I did get it so I don't really know.

Hey, Doot Doots! Could you shed some light? I was under the impression every gallon came with this but after reading the above, I'm not so sure. Anyway, these will be available in full this fall and winter. Again, thank you for posting the picture. I held back from asking my husband to do this, (I don't know how) because I just was so thrilled about seeing them for the first time and you know how lovely Chaz makes his labels! I had no idea what I had in my hands! Leave it to Chaz to make things fun for us!!!!!!

Sorry to post twice, seriously. Wow, thank you for the description of these two I wanted to but I wasn't ready to use them and I did not want them to leak and make a mess but when I did open them I was gonna give my opinion, if fact, I still will. Anyway, thank you again for the info,geezerette!

I also received the new scents with Bella spirit indigo gallon and it says on the auto delivery I'll receive them again on the 2nd shipment. Only certain scents, Bella spirit and the strength, hope, light, etc come with the new scents and they will receive with the auto delivery too. I'm so excited to try the new scents, I've been using wen for 15 years now. Love Wen, I currently have 8 gallons now, I have waist length hair so I use plenty.

Excuse the mutilated packets--I had to open them! 🤣

The Winter Wild Berry smells exactly like raspberries! Sweet, ripe raspberries. That's mainly what stands out to me. There's also another more earthy smell that I can't describe, maybe the combination of blackberries, honey or wild cherry. It's not one of the stronger scents compared to the other seasonals. I can envision enjoying this in the hot summertime as well as winter.

It also seems to be a lighter weight than some of the other seasonals, like my favorite WVM. I haven't used many of the seasonals, but it performs a lot like the Summer Honey Peach for me, only better. I couldn't believe how soft it left my hair! And it dried faster than the heavier formulas too.

I have somewhat longish, straight hair probably 40% gray. An adequate amount, but it's very fine. It left my hair soft and extremely manageable but not limp. I had just enough in the packet for one use, but I really like it--maybe better than any other formula I've tried.

I haven't tried the Fall Plum Pear yet, but upon first sniff, it seems to be quite subtle.

@geezeretteDoes the Plum Pear smell more on the fruity or floral side...Thanks for the info...

@quadmimi

I tried the Plum Pear last night. When I had first opened the packet and sniffed, it had a very subtle plum smell. But when I put it on my head in the shower, it was quite different. Very perfume-y to me. Quite frankly, I couldn't detect much plum or any pear at all. Not a bad fragrance, just not what I expected, given the definite raspberry dominance of the Wild Berry. This morning the scent has dissipated a lot, but I still can't smell any fruit notes. This one is just not for me, I'm afraid.

But I'm very sensitive to fragrance of any kind, so there are many of even the WEN scents that I don't like or use. I guess I'm not a very good judge to be giving a description!

As for tending floral or fruity, I'd say floral, since to me it doesn't smell much like any kind of fruit.

@geezeretteThank you, I like the fruity scents better also..The Wild Berry sounds like it's going to be my choice of new scents! Thank you..

@geezerette - Thank you for the descriptions. As I'm scent sensitive as well, the Plum probably won't be for me, however, I might give the raspberry one a try.

CamilleP · ‎03-09-2010

@geezerette thank you for all the detailed info on these new scents. I may not even get them, since I ordered TT and WWF, not the more treatment-heavy formulas, but I don't really mind not getting them, since I now know, thanks to you, that I can't use either of them, they have the honey extracts I am allergic to. Since my gallons have not even shipped yet (!!!!!!!!!) I won't even know if I will get to smell them or not.

geezerette · ‎03-16-2010

@CamilleP

You're certainly welcome. It was one of the reasons I mentioned the honey. I know that most ladies love it, but I thought I remembered one or two people here that couldn't use any of the honey formulas. I do hope you get the sample packets though, so you can at least smell them!🥰

Let's try a shot of the ingredient list and see how that works:

Unfortunately that's as big as the site will allow. If you can enlarge your screen you can read them. Plum on the left, berry on the right. I don't know if the ingredient lists are available anywhere else yet. But this might help others that may have a concern about specific ingredients.

CamilleP · ‎03-09-2010

@geezerette I'll let you know if I do get the sample packets with my gallons, if I ever get them that is. I most sincerely wish I could use the honey-containing seasonals, as SHP was my all-time top CC, performance-wise, and nearly my favorite scent as well, only being topped by WVM. I honestly don't know what I'll do if Chaz stops making the old original seasonals now that he's doing new fall and winter formulas, I will have to drop back to only using the classic formulas and WWF if he keeps making it. I can also use BGT and FF in the rice formulas, and 319/613 in the soy formulas, but man will I miss my Fall Ginger Pumpkin and Winter Vanilla Mint if they do go away!!!
