    I Love Candleberry :) They smell the most beautiful under the lamp. Waffle Cone ... mmmm... This is the most beautiful wafer for me :) I have a lot of their candles, but these are my favorites: Maple Bacon Donuts ( discontinued), Marshmallow & Embers, Waffle Cone, Harvest Sugar Cookie, and Vanilla Crumb Cake :)

    I would love a review of the Candleberry candles. Also interested in the Homeworx lychee. I do hope the wicks are not “puny”. I’m not sure why Slatkin uses such pathetic wicks. I want to burn my candles and not be forced to put them under a warming lamp. I’ve about given up on Slatkin candles. Haven’t purchased any so far this year. Also have had so many with hardly any throw. 😞

    I cannot stop laughing, Your face when you first smelled waffle cone. Hahhahah. Very telling :-). Citrus one sounds amazing. Excited to hear. I love the cookie jar idea and size. The HW Luxe candles just don’t burn well for me so hoping to hear more about CandleBerry.

    🎉Today, received first order of fruits; grapefruit, peach, & raspberry. It took 2.5 wks after ordering to arrive. UPS is slower these days. I sniffed the 3 along with this video. A 2nd order is expected to arrive this wk; placed during the BOGO sale (5 more fruits). Looking forward to burning all of them! Pitanga Peach reminds me of Farmstand Peach, yet I like Kringle’s peach best! 🍑Today is the last day for the BOGO, btw. Thanks for sharing! R☘️

    I ordered 3 from that qvc drop and sugared lychee one is definitely the best. Raspberry coconut cake is the same as the Raspberry snowball and is EXTREMELY light, even under the lamp. The strawberry kiwi lemonade is strong but is a dupe of his Kiwi Margarita. There is no strawberry note when lit.

      I thought it was me. I do not buy any candles if I do not have a coupon or code over $10, and that also goes for BBW. It would have been my first time shopping at Kringle, and I did not buy them. I'm not paying $13 for any candle.

    • @MrKongsMom
      @MrKongsMom  8 місяців тому +1

      Typically I won't buy a candle unless there is a sale either but the quality with Kringle is top notch so I don't mind as much. That being said, I get it. BBW has conditioned us all to only shop sales.

    So sad about your Waffle Cone, but man those cookie jars are so tempting (I am getting a Voluspa hearth next year). I skipped on the Kringle fruity 3 wicks because I’m saving all my coins for a Sweet Cream restock (hopefully before I retire)! 😂😂

    • @MrKongsMom
      @MrKongsMom  8 місяців тому +1

      If it does not apply then that means it is excluded from that particular sale. It works with many sales but not all. Always worth a try popping it in there to see if can bring it down.

    Darn it I didn't get the lychee one Because of the boozy notes I figured because there were two and I don't like any booze in my candles none. I ended up getting the coconut cake and raspberry and it smells just like the raspberry coconut snowballs I thought this was going to be like his coconut cake candle with some raspberry added to it I'm so ticked off, I love that candle but I have enough ❤

    • @MrKongsMom
      @MrKongsMom  8 місяців тому

      I had a feeling the raspberry coconut cake was just a repackage so I skipped it just in case. I am not allowed to buy "old" homeworx scents, right now anyway. Once I wittle the stash down I can relax on that. Just not quite yet lol. But the Lychee is wonderful! No booze! Have it lit today. Amazing!

    Hi, Melanie 🤍. I just purchased Candleberry’s cookie jar in the scent Hot Maple Toddy, 5 Hot Maple Toddy room sprays, & 8 26. Oz Honey Buttered Rolls. I have a very large bedroom and will be burning it in there. I just love honey buttered rolls as well. My home is 3,500sqft and it definitely takes a lot to fill all of my space. I have never smelled Kringle’s jelly donut, and really hope Mick will bring it back (with more than plenty of stock). I just do not understand why companies do that? They will earn such great profit. It truly just blows my mind! I’m thinking about also purchasing a cookie jar for the scent Honey buttered rolls as well. I just love that scent so much. Sending my love to you on this Sunday🤍TIFF

    Feedback after burning 3 of these fruit 3 wicks half way: peach is moderately strong & good; pink grapefruit is a powerhouse; last & certainly least, sadly raspberry smells like spicy jalapeño to my nose.🌶️ (Not kidding.) I’m expecting 5 more fruit 3 wicks tomorrow. Crossing my fingers for great fruit scents. 🤞🍐🫐🍍🍎

    • @MrKongsMom
      @MrKongsMom  8 місяців тому +1

      REALLY? Spicy? I think the Raspberry is on of my faves. But the strawberry turned out to not be as good for me. Not bad, but I prefer the country candle strawberry lemonade for sure!

      @@MrKongsMomYeah, so weird. I burned that candle 4 times for a few hours each. I really couldn’t believe that I smelled the same spicy note every burn. 😐 I assumed the candle was a mislabeled prototype or something. Super disappointing since I’ve had a life long love of all things raspberry. I’m curious to smell the strawberry lemonade Daylight. I just finished last year’s version-fake & cloyingly sweet. Just received the rest of my fruit 3 wicks. Peach is the best so far! 🍑
