Holiday Candles. B&W

Sunday, 10 December 2017

I just love B&W too much not to buy some new candles for the holidays. These were the ones I picked out after smelling them in the store. I haven't tested the throw of most of these yet but i'm hoping they will be great. The candles I have are Campfire Donut, Hot Coco & Cream, Salted Caramel and Pomelo and Pine, which are the more holiday scents. I also bought Black Cherry Merlot, Blueberry Swirl and Sparkling peach which isn't really Christmas smells to me but are lovely all the same.

Campfire Donut :

Notes : Powdered Sugar, Glazed Donut, and Cedarwood Essential Oil.

I never really heard of a campfire donut before if i'm being honest. I guess they just wanted to mix it up. It smells like something baking which is really good. I looked up the reviews on the bath and body works site and someone mentioned that it smelled great but when lit, it had no throw. I have to disagree with that because I lit mine for 5 minutes (It's currently burning) and it is all I could smell. Maybe it's because i'm in the same room with it. But if I can smell it after 5 minutes, then it's definitely making it's way around the rest of my home. All I can say is, Yum yum!!

Hot Cocoa & Cream :

Notes : Milk Chocolate, Steamed Milk, and Nutmeg Essential Oil.

Oh my god, this one literally smells like hot cocoa. It's so good. There's definitely a creamy smell there as well. I haven't lit this one yet so I am hoping the throw is just as amazing. I just want to drink it up.

Pomelo & Pine :

Notes : White Pomelo, Juicy Mandarin, Balsam, Cinnamon Bark.

We haven't had a real Christmas tree since I was probably 9 or 10 years old. It's always been an artificial tree ever since. But my dad would alway put fir into the furnace to put the smell of a real Christmas tree through the house. He does it every year. I don't have a Christmas tree in my apartment but I wanted it to smell like Christmas since I won't be back home until the day before Christmas Eve. Obviously this is a different smell then what my dad creates. I thought about getting the Fresh Balsam Candle but everyone I went into the store with didn't like the smell. So, I decided to get this one which still smells like Christmas but isn't too strong. It's subtle and smells amazing. I wasn't sure how the throw was a first or if it was even strong enough until I left the living room and went into another room, when I came back out, yep I could smell it in the hallway. The throw isn't super strong but just enough in my opinion. Obviously it would be stronger the longer it's going. I really like this one.

Salted Caramel :

Notes :

I shared this one with you guys last year in my "What I got for Christmas" Post. The packaging of it was so nice as well. I just went with the simple white barn version this time because I decided to get this one for my dad. He really loves those sweet smells so I figured he might appreciate this one. If you love sweet smells, I'd definitely recommend this one. So, so good, and the throw is great as well!

Golden Peach Sparkle :

Notes : Juicy Peaches, Sparking Bergamot, Apricot.

I haven't even tried this one out yet but it's more of a fruity smell. It literally smells like peaches and it's really nice. I feel like this could be a good one for all year round. Also, I love the packaging, Definitely makes it look more festive, I guess.

Blueberry Sugar :

Notes: Sweet Blueberries, Brown Sugar, Graham Cracker Crust.

Another one that I haven't tested out yet, but omg it smells incredible. I have a feeling the throw is going to be so good as well. You don't even have to lift the lid to smell it. When I opened the bag it was in, I smelled it instantly before even taking it out and pulling it off the lid. It's that powerful but not sickening. It smells like blueberries or blueberry cheesecake. I am so in love with it. You need to go and get it, or at least go the the store and smell it. Trust me!!
