I am burning Peppermint Sugar Cookie right now. I think I will follow it with Peppermint this evening. I do enjoy cranberry scents. I always have one around. Now I want a cranberry salad! Have a wonderful week ❌️ ⭕️
Hi Greg, fruity candles are not my thing but do enjoy the apple notes in the BBW candles. I found that Clausipoltian candle in my stash last night but I guess I won’t be burning that one anytime soon. Lol. Congrats on 1000 subscribers, awesome. I did vote as well. Thanks for your review 🥰
Haha, yep. It’s fruity for sure. I’m not sure if anyone has commented on this yet, but the notes for Clausmopolitan (a repackage of Black Cherry Seltzer from summer 2022) are sweet black cherries, fizzy seltzer water and cane sugar. I didn’t pick this one up because it seemed pretty similar to a variety of ghosts from BBW past. Great review! Thanks, Greg. I voted!! 🥰👌
I would like a plain cranberry, one that's not over sweet, nor over tart. I was thinking the apple note would be odd in there. I've had wick issues like that, but with GC. I hope BBW isn't going to keep being like that.
I feel that BBW needs to do a better job at quality control. For Candle Day, it appeared to be mostly re-packages. They didn't even bring back fan favorites, so I think they are just resting on their laurels and trying as hard as they once did.
Candle day and Fall was so abysmal this year!!! They usually give great releases and stuff to be so excited about. I didn't really shop 2023 and 2022 either because my dad got sick and I focused on him. But fall/Christmas is my time to shine as a candle enthusiast and it was just so sad this year.
Mr. Greg, On the Goose Creek website today, they are having a retired fragrance sale and three of the Wizard of OZ candles are there. I think you might like the Care Bears, Be The Love candle. I think you might like the fragrance notes.
Thanks for the tip! I have actually had my eye on that candle.. problem is there’s not enough stuff that I want to justify placing an order right now… hopefully it sticks around until there is! 💜🕯️😀
I have been burning this one the past few days and really like it. I bought one back up. A few weeks ago you were lamenting the performance of candle lighters. I have tried a few and agree with you that they need recharging so often. I have been semi-satisfied with the Fukkuda 😅 brand on Amazon. I just ordered a set of 3 Halo brand on QVC and have high hopes for them. It says you get 120 ignitions, fully charged so 40, 3 wicks. Dare we believe it???
I wanted to like this one but found it to be too apple-forward on cold, so didn’t buy it.🤷♀️ Good smell, just not for me. Thanks for reviewing this one.✌️
I did pick one up but haven't lit it yet and have one coming from Goose Creek (Thursday my order is supposed to arrive !!) I have it open on my counter and its pretty strong on cold in fact each time I walk past it, I can really smell it and that's just on cold. I may exchange it if I like the GC offering better. I do usually love the fruity ones from BBW and it does smell like a Cranberry Apple juice/cocktail ,that is so true! not sure I like the apple in there ?
I can't stand the BBW cinnamon note they use! When its burning it doesn't smell like cinnamon to me lol. Cranberry woods is the one i would pick if i had to choose! I did not not pick up cranberry pomegranate solely on what Kent said that it smelled like punch lol.
Smelled like fruit juice PUNCHED me in the face lol. I don’t like BBW cinnamon or caramel notes usually. But I’m kind of into the Vanilla and Caramel candle rn. Go figure. 🤦🏼 💜
@AllAbootCandles lol!! You know I have never smelled Vanilla Bean I think I may give it a sniff next time I am in store people seem to rave about it!! It is the core line right?? I don't usually smell those because I have had all of them 50 times lol!! But never have had vanilla bean!
I did enjoy this candle. Not too fruity..trying to expand my candle selection 😂😂🎉🎉
I have been trying to expand my selection lately too! With mixed results lol.
This must have been a popular scent near me. This along with Cranberry Pear Bellini sold out😆
It was popular by me too

I’ve got a Peppermint Sugar Cookie going on tonight! Love this one. Sad it didn’t come back this year, after this I’m out!

Thanks Debbie! I like some of their Apple candles… mahogany apple in particular. But there’s also a juicy apple note they use I’m not a big fan of…. 🤷

Ha! What a BS candle! Black Cherry?! Don’t think so. I’ll stand by my cranberry/orange assessment of it. 😂🤣💜🕯️

I agree. A really nice straightforward cranberry candle would be great.

Omigosh most boring candle day. Even most of the new candles were borrrrrring.

I've been waiting for a Goose Creek order for 10 days. I wouldn't order anything from them right now because it probably won't come for a month.

Thanks Mary! Fukkuda, noted. ✔️ Being able to light 40 3-wicks in one charge would definitely be an improvement lol.

Yeah I could’ve passed too tbh. Whyyyyy did they need to put that apple in there.

I think it would be better without the appl tbh
