Smell It

Etsy Team
Let me begin by making it clear that I love Etsy, all the creativity and community is a beautiful magical thing. Simply put, Etsy rocks... its existence has gave rise to a creative outlet and business for countless many across the world, the moment of its conception was a stroke of genius.

With that said, I put all my heart and soul into my apothecary creations, the aroma of them is one of the most amazing parts of the experience. However, my customers or shall I say potential customers are unable to smell them on Etsy :(

Furthermore as I browse other artisan crafted lovliness, the mint soaps, the absinthe perfume, I am "gasp" unable to smell them, bask in their glory and decide if I must have it now.

Could you please add a {smell it} option in the bath and body section. As it is just for one section I do not see it as being too much of an expenditure or investment of programming time.

Thank you!
Kat

We need 'scratch & sniff' in Browse this instant! ;-)
Lori, :) Thats right!
I was shopping soaps today and found a seller who didn't list what the scent was and teh names of the soap were basic holiday names.
I need to know what I will smell like!!!
Found someone else to buy from.
Etsy meets BRAVE NEW WORLD!
I also think we should have a taste the chocolate link...just a small bite to determine if we want to buy a pound or so....
I agree Sylvia :)

Chocolate shops could offer a "sliver of samples" package...same for soap makers.

Sorry, my low-tech idea was the only solution to the "scratch-n-sniff" that I could come up with.
