Hey friends, Bath & Body Works recently had a $12.95 sale and I had a 25% off coupon so I went in and picked up a few more Fall candles. I was very interested in the member exclusive scents when they were first released so I went ahead and popped both the Pumpkin Donut Shop and Pumpkin Nut Butter into my cart. I was secretly hoping Pumpkin Nut Butter might be a repackage of Bath and Body Works Roasted Pumpkin Butter but sadly, it's not. Still nice, worth keeping, but not a repackage. Did you snag any candles during the sale? What are your thoughts? Please subscribe if you are new!

Donut one I didn’t like on cold either, but it changes when it burns

@the_joyful_candle 5 дней назад

If you take a hair dryer to the top of the lid, it loosens the adhesive and you can pop off the snake on top of Wicked Vanilla Woods!! It took a little prying but mine came off!!!

@MrKongsMom 4 дня назад

I will be trying this! Thanks for the suggestion!

The snake is just hot glued on so you can pry it off or warm up the glue and take it off that way. The lid is gorgeous without the ugly snake on top 😂

Ok, I shall reserve opinions until after I burn it but I was really surprised I didn't love the cold sniff. I thought this would be an easy winner right off the bat.

@deeannc5595 5 дней назад

I'm with you on re-releasing Roasted Pumpkin Butter. That was when I learned my hard lesson on always buying a backup LOL! Also, why won't BBW bring back vanilla pumpkin marshmallow in the 3-wick? Only single wick...boo. Pumpkin Cinnamon Bun is better than Pumpkin Donut Shop IMHO.

@crazy4candles123 5 дней назад

I know how can they skip Autumn ?! like seriously BBW thank goodness I have one in my stash! Pumpkin Apple is still my fave for Fall . I complain about constant repackages but those two should be staples always . BBW has alot of great scents but they need to pick it up in the newness department . I just ordered 10 from Goose Creek because BBW is boring me after so many years . I will burn my faves from them but just want to try some new scents. Hope that goes well .. Love your videos !!

Thanks for sharing. 🍂I’m enjoying the spices blend in Cozy Sunday Night, as well as Pumpkin Vanilla Crème. Finished a Farmhouse Pumpkin & Spice (great spices, murky burn). Saving Fall favorites Cranberry Woods and Harvest Gathering for less than 90 degree weather. Picked up The Perfect Autumn this year for the cranberry note. There are several good BBW Autumn spices 3 wicks this year. BBW’s Cinnamon Stick single wick is a good one for Fall & Winter. Enjoy! R🍁

Hi Melanie! I got the single wick Wicked Vanilla Woods a while ago and only recently used it under my candle lamp. Wow! I love it! I went back and bought two more. I did try burning one single wick and it just performs so much better under the lamp. Thank you for your thoughtful and honest reviews as always!

Hey Mel. Thanks for the fun video. Im holding thumbs that the new Kringle and Country Christmas candles are on their way to you. I can't wait to hear your initial thoughts on those. I note that a lot of them have some sort of spice note and I'm not a fan of spice, and so I'm hoping for a few that I'll love. ❤

@taylornation320 4 дня назад

Awesome! Im glad you finally got wicked vanilla woods! Its light on cold and especially ordering it through shipping so it's sent with the lid off its hard to distinguish the scent at first. I did get 3 🤭 i don't like the lid either. Honestly they're just gaudy to me. Im going to give the lids away too. Im glad you pick up a resemblance as well, its always hard to say because noses range so much.. like donut shop im obsessed with, like full on. It smells exactly like a Krispy kreme shop to me. I dont get pumpkin or spice but just a really good basic glazed donut from it. And im taking my fall cider back as well but not because of caramel 😭 i would have been happy with that. It weirdly smells so much like latex and keyboard duster to me.. i cant pick up on anything autumnal. Its just green apple and chemicals of some kind. Thought it could be a batch thing but every store in my area all smell the same. It's just my nose thats being dumb. 🤦🏻‍♀️

@MrKongsMom 2 дня назад

You were totally right!!! I am excited to start burning it soon. Such a pleasant beautiful scent.

@myhardyboys1 5 дней назад

Wow, great ideas on the snake lid. I love the candle and the jar so I am going to try to remove the snake. What a good idea. I know people bought it for the snake lid before they went on sale but pretty sure all of us buying the 12.95 was for the candle. Wicked vanilla woods smalls amazing.

@jg9622 5 дней назад

BBW needs to do a better job of shipping. So many people are getting broken candles. They would save money if they would package their orders properly. Target puts anything liquid in a clear plastic bag and zip ties them. BBW should do the same thing and use more bubble wrap.

@MrKongsMom 4 дня назад

Their shipping is rough... they should really do better to save themselves having to resend product to people.

@michellek7600 5 дней назад

Melanie, great video. Pumpkin Donut I found to be far better when burned, I too did not care for it on cold. I wanted to comment on your damaged, leaked product. BBW is so good at resending not only the product that leaked but also on anything else that was affected in the shipment box from the leak. This is where BBW shines, their customer service is superb, and they resolve any problems whether they are responsible or not. I actually had a recent shipment where UPS left my shipment at another address and the wrong recipient actually burned one of the candles (wife thought husband had ordered) and BBW shipped the replacement candle without me even asking them to. I was simply going to reorder and ask if they would waive shipping and they instead sent a replacement candle and covered everything. I also purchase Kringle and Homeworx candles and both I have had recent orders with. The Kringle order took 16 days to even ship and they never responded to my email or contact option via their website. Homeworx also was late shipping last month on an order which took forever. In fact, I thought perhaps my order fell from a shipping queue. They too never responded to my email but must have taken action on the missed shipment because it then shipped out. The fact that there is no way to speak with anyone with Kringle or Homeworx since there is no phone contact leaves the customer to try and address problems via an email, which may or may not be responded to. On another note, could the Pumpkin Nut Butter be Pumpkin Vanilla Creme with nut added. I was thinking this when I ordered it but have not smelled it on cold as of yet. About the glass foaming dispensers, I returned the unused gray ones because the tops were so messy looking seeing the soap mess through the cap. Not a problem on some of the darker tops, but BBW should have used a higher quality top for $20.

@susanl.5226 5 дней назад

Agree, my Kringle hasn't been shipping for 2 WEEKS after order. Wonder if they need extra help during the holidays? I did send an email, and they emailed back that they had a lot of orders and we're really busy. ok. Their msg. sort of had an uppity overtone. Surprised by that..... Maybe they're just inundated with messages asking when their orders are going to ship. ? Jamie, the "packager" is always lovely with added notes on orders!

@MrKongsMom 23 часа назад

I did end up calling them and they are graciously replacing it. I do think they should still fix the shipping tho. Just seems wasteful.

@MrKongsMom 23 часа назад

Kringle is super behind. I think that clearance sale with several releases that followed really did them in. They do have a very small shipping team. I hope they increase the time between releases to avoid this in the future.

@aliceschroeder1460 5 дней назад

Yup. I’m right there with you when it comes to snakes. I did, however, buy 1 of the candles.😊

@jt9058 5 дней назад

Melanie! Did you see the new skeleton pedestal with creepy cauldron candle? It’s so cute!!! I just ordered it this morning! And I’m with you on the snake terror. I am the same way and my husband always says I’m ridiculous. I swear when I see a snake I just lose consciousness just a little bit and fear takes over my whole being. I don’t know how else to describe it and I wish I wasn’t like this, but it’s just my natural reaction….😢

Agree wholeheartedly about packaging. So MANY candles broken in shipping. When I pick up the box & can hear glass rattling around inside I know it'll be an outside box opening. I have made the decision to no longer order candles online. And so many times I have had leaking soap bottles inside as well. 😥

The apple cider one smelled like a crisper caramel apple scent to me when I burned it. I liked it but if you don’t like caramel apple scents then I’d exchange it.

@susanl.5226 5 дней назад

Yes, and if they're going to do that I much prefer CIDER LANE. So beautiful & yummy!

@MrKongsMom 4 дня назад

For sure going back. Too much caramel on cold usually leads to a lot of it when lit.

@kawaiiwitchbaby 5 дней назад

As the cat mom of a tortoiseshell cat I really liked that tortoiseshell soap pump but I'm not a foaming soap lover. I wish they would offer gel refills/soap pumps. I am also mad Autumn didn't return. First they quietly got rid of it in wallflowers and now the candle as well. :( I did a pre order on vendor wax that people compare to Autumn so I'm hoping that will help and also scentsy's Autumn Road Trip is like 90+% Autumn to my nose.

@MrKongsMom 4 дня назад

Hi Melanie! *What a missed opportunity;* I was also HOPING for "Roasted Pumpkin Butter." Bought 3 Pumpkin Nut Butter, and have burned one a few hours. I heard similar to Cinnamon Pumpkin and/or Pumpkin Carving. Well, after a few hours I'm getting "spicy dirty socks" LOL *The other 2 are going back.* FYI, on instagram someone was showing how you could pry the snake off the Vanilla lid! Both my Apple Crisp & Fall Apple Cider were very light. Bummer. REally enjoy Cozy Sunday Night in the evenings, sort of both gourmand and meditative.... Bought this last season too. Autumn Chai good this year. THANKS for the video as always! Enjoyed! ;-))

@MrKongsMom 4 дня назад

Ohhh no, spicy dirty socks are not the fall vibe lol! I really hope I don't get that from it lol!!!!!

@susanl.5226 4 дня назад

@@MrKongsMom For sure! lol. Update: I sacrificed the remainder of it by putting it in the powder room under a candle lamp, so I could maybe isolate the scent without flame. I'm getting spicy, creamy & maybe a tad salty. It isn't bad, I think it's just not what I was expecting! Still not sure if I'll keep the other two. I'll be interested to see what you think. *Enjoyed the Decorate Series!* ;-))

I was told by a store employee that they have nothing to do with the online purchases, that they were separate part of the company, so I do not know if they can help you with your soap replacement. Please let us know what happens. You will probably have to call customer service and they will send you a replacement. Good luck !

@lavender_coffee 5 дней назад

My thoughts on Pumpkin Nut Butter and Pumpkin Donut Shop are the same as yours. I’m not crazy about Pumpkin Donut Shop. It smells like bread, not a donut, similar to French Baguette. I think Fall Apple Cider is a repack of Caramel Apple. It’s like caramel with a strong woody note to my nose. And I do get some apple. But I’m not crazy about it. Apple Crisp is strong and delicious. You’ll probably want to exchange for more of that one. The Pumpkin Spiced Latte candle is a repack of Sweet Tiramisu. So you’re right that it has coffee and chocolate undertones. And maybe some cinnamon, but I get no pumpkin, as with most BBW “pumpkin” candles.

@MrKongsMom 4 дня назад

If you tell customer service they will send you a new hand soap refill and you won’t have to return the leaked one. I know because I’ve had hand soaps arrive damaged in shipping and did the same. Don’t you just love their shipping?😒 I wish they didn’t have those online exclusives that have to be bought with shipping. Roasted Pumpkin Butter was good. I was hoping Apple Crisp would be a repackage of Apple Crumble, but it’s not. There’s so many great oldies that would sell very well for them if they brought them back. Sometimes I wonder if the fragrance oils aren’t available anymore and that’s why they don’t.

@MrKongsMom 4 дня назад

Online exclusives are the worst! Just bring them in all the stores lol! Apple Crisp is def not Apple Crumble but it smells good on its own so I hope I enjoy it. The other one from that collection is going back however. No thanks to all that crazy sweet caramel.
