Products: Cranberry Mint Tea
This tea is so good. I added a pinch of sugar and it was perfect. Very body warming on a cold day. My husband hates tea and I made him try it, and he drank what was left in the cup!
I give it a 5 out of 5.

I've gone from a coffee~holic to a tea~holic and look forward to my next order before I ever run out~Goddess, we cannot have a runout of tea now can we~ This tea is smooth, spiced just so, it offers just enough zing without that over powering blast of heat. Thanks for always shipping in timely fashion* somehow you just know when I am down to my last potfull*

Not only do I love Scent by Spirit teas but my VERY hard to please mother-in-law cannot get enough of them. I got her a bunch for Christmas and she keeps calling and telling me which one she is drinking and how wonderful they taste. Thank you for the AWESOME products and customer service!

Products: numerous fragrances, teas
Just for openers, your customer service is the very best! My HUGE order arrived in time for Christmas giving, but it all smells so wonderful that I'm having to wrestle with my conscience over giving it away. So far, my personal favorite is the Sierra Dawn; and the Zen fragrance is so perfect for the friend who will get it for Christmas. The Peppermint Hand and Foot treatment is also wonderful! A real treat for dry skin. And it's moisture-giving without leaving that yucky greasy feel on your hands. The refreshing fragrance is an added bonus.
Your site has zoomed right to the top of my 'favorites' list!
Donna in Texas - December-2003
Hi there, For those of you that haven't yet tried Scent by Spirit Teas, I wanted to HIGHLY recommend the Gypsy Ambrosia Tea It is absolutely fabulous tea (take it from someone who drinks about 10 cups a day!! Its true what they say about the British!!) My experience with specialist teas is that others smell ok, but taste like water........ Rachel's teas taste as good as they smell, and the smell is divine
Lisa in London - October-2003
Ahem, I had recently placed an order with you for some tea after getting a sample which we ejoyed quite a bit.
Boy, were we surprised! Not only did we get one but two! I also ordered more soap to replace what my scheming
"friends" swiped from me. The scents were heavenly!. The Nag Champa soap matches our incense filled house, my
husband loves the Green Clover and Aloe, and I can't wait to try the Isis.
The teas were wonderful also. My husband has nearly finished off the Mango Medley (good thing you sent us two!),
I love the Jamaica Me Crazee, I am drinking one now, yummers! I want to get my Yule gifts from you but I am
afraid once they get in this house, they may never leave, but I will try to be strong. The insert you sent
along for cards will be used today. I love truly non-traditional cards, i.e. pagan. Being a wiccan, these cards
will be very welcome. Thank you for making such wonderful products. We are looking forward to continuing to do
business with you.

Hi! I had ordered some of your teas and wanted to let you know how much I love them!! The gypsy ambrosia is my favorite so far. I have tried the Ali Baba, Voodoo Chai, Lola and Fruit Loop as of today. I am sipping the Lola's now! I ordered 5 for my aunt but couldn't give up more than 3 and a sample! Thank you so much for the extra samples too. Tomorrow morning while preparing my soap recipe I'm gonna drink the saponi-tea!! Thanks!!!!
Becca - October-2003
I just received my order of tea from ScentbySpirit.com My order came so fast! Did you move in next door without me knowing?
I really am not a tea drinker, I bought your gourmet tea because my husband is. One day, after having a really stressful
day, I decided to give it a try. Needless to say, I am now a tea drinker and absolutely love your blends. My husband and
I particularly love your "Head Health Tea". It is not only delicious, but it is just what the doctor ordered after a long,
stressful day. It immediately relaxes both of us.
Thank you so much for the samples that you sent with my order and thank you for providing us with a exceptionally outstanding product.
Cheri in Mississippi - October-2003
Rachel's teas are fantastic! I love Jamaica Me Crazee. And her Lift
the Blahs Tea, has never let me down when I'm having a hard
time staying focused later in the day. Even after my first cup, I'm
able to think more clearly and accomplish my remaining tasks. My
order arrived in a timely fashion, was carefully packaged to avoid
shipping damage, and I have to say that it was a joy to open each
and every jar just to inhale the incredible aromas.
On the topic of the Reading she did for me: It was so in tune to who
I am, and we have never even met! It helped me to see a few issues
more clearly, and empowered me to take control of some negativities
and turn them positive.
Rachel brings a much needed product, service and business ethic to
this crazy world. So, get yourself a tin of your favorite tea from
Scent by Spirit, sit back and inhale the aroma, and meditate on bringing all
the positives that this life offers. You won't be sorry :o)
Donna in Idaho - September-2003
I got my tea! Thanks so much for the vanilla voodoo votive--it smells simply luscious and is one of the very few
fragrances that don't give me a headache (how did you know??) Thanks too for the Turkish Delight sample. I almost
ordered it, but then restrained myself. (How did you know that, too??)
I just brewed myself a cup of the Gypsy Ambrosia tea, and OMG it is WONDERFUL!!!! Sweet and peachy with a touch of
vanilla. Oh man, I am just in heaven with this tea! My 4-year-old daughter came in the kitchen and said, "Oooh! What
smells so good?" Tomorrow morning when I get off work, I am coming home and brewing up a cup of the Sleepytime. I
had a cup last night, and I was soooooo relaaaaaaxed.
Fabulous teas, Rachel, and I can't wait to try all the others!
Linda in Washington - September-2003
Hello! I come to your store all the time (I live right down the street and around the corner) and when I first bought your teas (Lift the Afternoon Blahs and Creativity teas) I was hooked. I love tea, and so far, you make the best. I really love the Lift the Blahs (drink it during classes at RTC and work) and Sleepy Time Delight is just that - a delight! I drink a cup every night before bed. I love your products, and will be coming in again soon to buy more tea!
Stephanie in Washington - September-2003
Dearest Rachel,
I received the Nag Champa products today and I just had to write and tell you how much I love them!
The amount of product is amazing with such a reasonable cost, to say nothing of the high quality! The
Soap makes such a long lasting and luxurious lather that I hated to rinse it off! The Lotion makes my
skin so soft and layering that with the fragrance, it has lasted all day. Having known you and done so
much business with you for a few years now I had no doubt in my mind that your products would be top of
the line! It just so happened today that the mail came as I was getting ready to get in the shower so I
ripped into the box like a kid on Christmas and had a ball. I also appreciate, as always, the extra
goodies you pack in the box. I have placed another order so that I can try more of your wonderful line.
Love and Blessings,
Susan
Susan in Florida - September-2003
Oh! I LOVE the Jamaican Me Crazee one!! I also have the Turkish Delight and love it. I have a few more too. I've not tasted one that I didn't like. I will have to order the chocolate one since you are raving about it. I've always like teas, but Rach's are a notch above anything I've ever bought in the stores.
Donna in Idaho - August-2003
Rachel Darling! Woo Hoo! I got my order in. Let me tell you, this lady is the absolute best. She truly is a genius. She knows JUST when I run out of a special blend (Head Health) and runs a special. I think they are geared especially for me I look forward to the new blends. How do you know chocolate is an absolute weakness of mine. How can you top this blend I don't know!!!!!!
YOU ROCK!
Sherry in Louisiana - August-2003
Sorry for such a delay in writing this. I've been SO busy getting ready for the show we had this weekend...But..............
YOUR HEAD HEALTH TEA IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tastes Great...Works Great!!!
GREAT GREAT GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BTW....The others I got ain't so bad either!!!
Lisa in Louisiana - August-2003
I LOVE your lip balms and Lotions, they keep my lips and skin very moisturized as compared to over-the-counter retail products do. Moisture is definitely a concern in this hot, humid weather this year! I will definately be ordering again soon!
Valued Customer in Wisconsin - August-2003
I got my soap and tea and love the soap but LOVE the tea (and I am a tea
snob). I absolutely adore your blends, especially Jamaican Me Crazee. It is so
aromatic and so flavorful. I love a strong cup of tea but there's not a hint
of bitterness, not matter how strong I make it. I can't wait to order more!
Thanks again!
Terri in Oregon - August-2003
Fallen Angel is my new signature scent! My daughter and I both love all the products we purchased! The Burjois type lip butter is yummy, and the soaps are very well made. As a soap maker and one who practices aromatherapy, as well as a cosmetic fiend I am very impressed. The service is prompt, friendly, and very personable. These products are a bargain for the quality. I will order again.
Carol in Georgia - July-2003
I bought some of your tea just to have something other than soda and milk to offer to my guests (I'm not a big tea person myself) Your teas are great, very flavorful. And I am absolutely in love with your Gypsy Ambrosia! I tried it iced and it just blew me away! And your soaps and lotions are wonderfully scented :) Thank you for the wonderful products and the great customer service.
Bridget in California - July-2003
Hi Rachel,
Hope you had a fun 4th of July. We started with some rain but ended with an overall fun afternoon and evening...just a side note here, and you may laugh, cause I really am not sure why I thought to do this...but I made salsa for the party, used 10 jalapenos, and if you have had any experience with peppers than you know that some exposure to skin will make it burn. Well silly me, because they didn't taste hot didn't think they would eventually "feel" hot on my skin, well I ended up scratching the inside of my arm (the opposite side of the elbow). Well, it was burning like you would not believe, huge rash about 3x2 inches, and it kept getting worse and worse, and you would think that with all the people at this party someone would have something, some kind of suggestion that would help me out. Then it came to me, I had put your Ginger Peach Lip Butter on my lips just shortly after I had eaten some of the hot sauce, and my lips were not burning - so I put the balm on the rash, and it was gone (itchiness redness and all) within 5 minutes....so that means your lip balm works wonders! I just thought I would share that with you.
Jennifer in Florida - July-2003
Hi Rachel,
I just got my stuff, and thanks for the little surprise!! I love bubblegum- it's almost good enough to eat!! I just put in for 3 more sprays!! I have bought regular perfume that never smelled as good as this---especially the dragon's blood. This one is on the exceptional list!!!!!
Thanks,
Robin
Ps. you got great feedback!!!
Robin in North Carolina - July-2003
Just want you to know that I received my stuff on Tuesday, my house smells soooo good, everytime I walk in all I can smell is the soaps =D I love it, so guess who will be storing the soaps when we start ordering more =D thank you for the freebies. I am really enjoying the gypsy tea, so you can bet I am ordering some soon.
Jennifer in Florida - July-2003
I received everything and am just as happy as can be. The personal scent is great!!! I have got to get me a flight out that way to do one of your classes.
Everything I have gotten from you is great. I keep going thru the soaps to
see which one I like best. My daughter has even swiped some already. Also
you are one the money with the song you sent with the analysis. Now I have
to figure out how to shed for good. thanks for everything and I WILL be back
for more.
Sue in Indiana - July-2003
We love the products from ScentbySpirit! The whole Necessiteas family
enjoys the teas, and the lip balm is a life (and lip) saver. Thank you
for your wonderful products and for being so easy to do business with.
We refer you to all our friends and family. Thanks again!

Dear Spirit:
First off, you have a really nice website. I wanted to take the time and let you know how much I have enjoyed my custom blended oil. Not only did it smell great but the packaging was really nice too! The custom blend is incredible and is certainly a relaxing scent for my meditation sessions. I also use it at night before bedtime and it eases my nerves for a relaxing sleep! The consultation questions for the reading were easy and thought provoking, but the real treat was getting the reading back and boy was it right on! I cannot wait to get another solid cream perfume too! Marvelous products for those who are looking for something different! I am also enjoying my daily inspirational thoughts that you send to my email box.
Amy in Georgia - June-2003
I just picked up my order from the US mailbox and everything is wonderful! I had to use the soap right away! My test group may not get any to try! Thank you for your prompt service and a great smelling product!
Krystyne in Canada - June-2003
Thank you Rach! LOVED all the products I ordered, the lip balm is to die-for!! Very nice packaging, I would definately order again!!
Kitty in Illinois - June-2003
I just wanted to let everyone know what great products Rachel has. I saw a link to the website on a community forum I belong too. As life hasn't been going great lately I decided to order the custom blend oil and reading. What I received was amazing!! The custom blend is wonderful, the reading was very insightful and the free soap (which was grapefruit lily) is to die for!! While I have a ways to go this blend and reading has helped me a great deal. I look forward to many more in the future. Thanks Rachel!
Tina in New York - June-2003
Oh yeah, BAYBEE!!!! I'm steeping my Tiger Energy tea from the oh so popular Scent by Spirit!!!!! It smells absolutely delish!!!!! And, I immediately dosed my lil lips (no, not the lips that you will see under my user id) and the boys (hee hee) lips with Pina Colada lava lip gloss!!!! And the soap!!!!! Oh my the soap!!!!!! Holy sweet smellin' babe will I be!!! :D And, after my Tiger Energy, it'll be time for a little Mango Madness!!!!!
Oh, Rachel!!!! Everything is absolutely perfect!!!!!! Thank you sooo sooo sooo much!!!!!! It came at the perfect time as it's almost dinner time here and everyone is at their worst!!! LOL I needed a little pick-me-up.
Corey in Illinois - June 2003
I got my tea in this morning! I am a firm believer in feedback......It was amazing!!!! She sent some Fruit Loop tea and Winter Solstice. I love tea but usually just get the Lipton stuff from the grocery store. The more interesting and exotic the better. Well as exotic as you can get for Lipton I tend to stay away from the orange spice blends as I'm not too crazy about the cloves. I have no clue what all was in the two blends from Rachel but they are undoubtedly the best tea I've ever had!!!!!! I made the Winter Solstice right away. It was so good that I went back and made a mug of the Fruit Loop. Supper is done and over with, kitchen is clean, and I can not decide which one I want to drink for dessert!!! Decisions, decisions, decisions!!!!!
Sherry in Louisianna - June 2003
What a wonderful reading. It is right on and some things you said I needed to be reminded of. Thank you so much!!

Hi Rachel,
The soaps arrived safely today and they smell just HEAVENLY! They're so
great looking! Thank you for the extras. I love them all. Two bars are
going to my daughter and her hubby as part of their Yule gifts. Thanks
again Rachel, these are wonderful and I can't wait to use them!
Dana S. in Arkansas
Hi! What a wonderful reading! I am amazed! Thank you so much! The song you mentioned is one of my favorites! I sing it all the time. I'll be thinking about the words more carefully! Well, it's a very nice reading, and it has everything to do with me. I am very happy about it! Thank you so much! Lots of love,
Gina R. in Florida
Rachel, the soaps are here, and wow, do they smell yummy... I'll have to force myself not to eat them! Thanks so much! Blessed Be,

You are the best!!! I received everything yesterday and could not be happier. I just love the scents. My next order will have to be the Bonsai. I now have two favorites. Thanks for everything.

Being a Vedic Astrologer and working with
ancient Hawaiian healing techniques, I am very aware of the important
role that essential oils play in healing on a mental, emotional, physical
and spiritual level. I have known Rachel for several years and have come
to trust her extensive knowledge of essential oils. I came to her with
a special formula I had used in the past and asked her to re-blend it
for me. At the time, there were some ingredients that were not available
to her. Since the formula would not be exactly what I had asked for, I
told her to create what she felt was best. What Rachel returned to me
was beyond anything I ever could have imagined. Through the love, prayers
and meditations that she uses when working with these sacred oils, she
created a formula perfectly aligned with every vibration of my now present
spirit self. The beautiful, bottle that holds my sacred oil was not only
an unexpected gift but exemplifies the love and spirit that t surrounds
Rachel as she does her magnificent healing work.
My specific formula works on healing my
nervous system and specifically my leg cramps at night when I try to sleep
and can?t get comfortable in any position. Several drops of the oil instantly
relaxes my nerves, calms my mind and I am asleep within minutes.
Whatever you problem or concern, I highly
recommend that you have a reading with Rachel and allow her to ?work her
magic? and create a gift of healing and love for you as she did for me.

This is a testimonial regarding the use
Prosperity Oil, blended by Rachel.
I purchased a bottle on Friday evening
08/10/01 and proceeded to place some on my heart and throat, then on my
wallet and said a prayer.
Monday - Decided to try and lower the interest on a high interest credit card; phoned and with no problem it was lowered considerably.
Tuesday - Received a phone call from a previous loan officer asking me if I would like to have another loan at a lower interest. I said no, but would like a lower interest rate on the remaining balance of a small loan. He said no problem.
Wednesday - Received a weekly unemployment check, the amount had been raised. The unemployment office confirmed that this was the correct new amount
Thursday - Loan officer phoned again to see if I wanted a loan at a ridiculously low rate. That night I rubbed some more oil on my wallet, my husbands wallet and my check book and said a prayer.
Friday - Received $3,031.00 - Very unexpected. Monday - Receive an unexpected check from old employer. Apparently they owed me money from months ago.
I will keep you posted to any other updates regarding the use of your prosperity oil.

I have known Rachel now for about two years and have purchased many items from her. So, when she approached me about her "Custom Spiritual Oil Blend Readings" I had to say it was something that I had not seen anywhere else. It is a step above and beyond what others do in a tarot, rune or spirit reading. She even went further than just an oil blend. Working with the client by starting off with a simple questionnaire to get a better idea of what the person is looking for from her services was easy and acceptable to me. I knew the spirits would give her more details than I could, but at least she would have an idea of what to ask from them in order to help me.
Once I submitted the necessary information to Rachel she began work on my oil blend and reading and soon I had a wonderful package in the mail. Upon opening the box, I found a thank you note and detailed reading. The reading included each card that was drawn and a clear interpretation of what the messages were for me. Of course, it was my choice as to what deck would be used which still gave me some input into my reading.
Rachel also listed supportive tools and services that I could use in combination with the oil blend she prepared for me with the guidance of the spirits such as stones, book and candles.
The oil came in a good-sized bottle and alongside it was a beautiful Victorian style potion bottle that I could keep my in as a personal touch. Just by holding the bottle, I could feel the healing energies inside. This doesn't always happen with everything I order from other retailers. It felt reassuring in many ways to know that care, time and positive energy had been spent on my purchase.
The blend was perfect and was made to the details I had submitted in the questionnaire. Of course, Rachel gave clear instructions on how to use the oil to achieve what I needed in my life at that time based on our session. Personally, I needed assistance to focus more in meditations as well as evolving spiritually. Every day when I do my meditations my focus becomes clearer and I am much more grounded. Mediation is much easier now and I settle into it quickly, taking up less time than before.
I honestly look forward to requesting another blend and reading from Scent by Spirit in the future as I have really experienced excellent results from my first one. Her offer to be available through phone or email is a personal level of customer service that Rachel presents to help all her clients achieve what they wish. The service does not end once your package arrives on your doorstep as many other businesses do. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for guidance and direction to seek out the unique and affordable services Rachel offers at Scent By Spirit!

"Honestly this is the best reading I have ever had, and, as is usually the case, (though some people out there don't like to admit it) it is quite true to form-a lot of the things in here seem to be *exactly* what is going on with me. I'm *more* than willing to pay for your services again."

"I won a reading and an oil blend from Rachel at ScentbySpirt.com in a benefit auction. First off, let me say that I was amazed by the reading she did for me--it was truly phenomenal, and right on target! Considering the fact that technically she was doing this for free, she treated me like a gem. Her emails were understanding, helpful and insightful. I received my custom oil blend and it is wonderful!! She even included extra goodies which were very nice. I can't wear the oil due to pregnancy, and when she suggested that I should just use it in a diffuser for now, she even offered to send me one!! You can't go wrong here, I promise you. Rachel is one of the truly good people in this world."
