    #candle #homefragrance
    Something I always say to everyone is, "if you like it, you should burn it." Any form of fragrance is solely based upon an individuals preference. Bath & Body Works is a VERY common brand for candles and other home products. In this conversation, I discuss my reasonings for not reviewing Bath & Body Works products. Hopefully this gives some clarification to the questions and comments surrounding why I only talk about certain luxury candle brands.
    Thanks for watching!

    I buy everything from Cire Trudon to BBW. Honestly, if BBW has a fragrance one likes, you can't beat the amount of good scent you get for the price when there's a sale + coupon. From BBW, I love so many scents. Fresh Bamboo, Eucalyptus Rain, Palo Santo, Rainforest Gardenia, Cozy Cashmere, Paris Cafe, Sundrenched Linen and Frozen Lake are hoard worthy.

      At this point I’d rather look into making my own damn expensive smelling candles. I bet I’d still be saving money compared to buying these expensive candles, so I can brag to others about how “I spent $300 on a candle.” that will go out after so many lights. FOH

    For what BBW candles cost, I might as well buy a luxury candle...over $32 now! I hate that they use scent names that don't describe the smell of the candle at all OR repackage the same scents over and over with different names. Let me give you some tea I discovered last year: Opal house candles from Target smell better, perform better, and are a fraction of the cost. I don't even bother with BBW anymore, but I've bought a lot of those Target candles 🤣

At first I thought I was having nasal issues... but today I bought a Glade candle just to see if I could smell it... it filled my big living room!

    Mahogany and Teakwood is my all-time favorite bath and Bodyworks candle.
    I do not usually buy Bath and Bodyworks candles anymore as I have rerouted my candle criteria. I want to find some more luxury brands that have similar scent percent profiles.
    There are a few few lectures that I try that I have absolutely loved that. I want to venture out and get many of the companies you’ve talked about.
    Particularly Trudon, and Facetti to start out. I do have a Trudon room spray and I’m absolutely in love with it and cannot wait to try some other other scent profiles.
    Give me some leather, oud, Wood, notes, tobacco, tobacco etc.
    There’s a really good incense company that I like called Flint candle company. They have amazing incense. My favorite is uncle Al’s house, which is a cherry pipe tobacco. It is beautiful.
    Lingonberry is a stunning mahogany, teakwood, and tart lingonberry scent.
    Shoe shop is leather, pipe, tobacco, and sawdust.
    Campground: Frasier fir, northern pine, woodsmoke, summer nights
    They have other great scents as well but those are my favorite variety from that company.

    PartyLite, Illuminations (yeah I am a 90s girl), and BBW candles is were I started out. My aunts threw so many PartyLite parties and the catalogs were at every family event for a decade solid. I stuck with PartyLite because of the consistent scents and them being a soy/paraffin blend. But when ever I could afford it I purchased Illuminations, once they went away in 2006 I turned to artisan candles. I have been trying to avoid paraffin as much as possible and besides artisan or luxury candles it doesn't seem possible. I believe BBW is currently a soy wax blend which consists of: vegetable wax, paraffin wax, and soy wax. Making them a no go for me currently. I really appreciate the detailed information you give Detailed Dream about the wax of these different candles you are reviewing as it isn't always the easiest to find on their websites.

    1) You got BBW *exactly right*. They specialize on hype and impulse and the high of shopping. Not actual fragrance art.
    2) HOWEVER, I disagree your thoughts with luxury candle production. They're just as mass produced. But marketed differently. They manufacture the illusion of thoughtfulness and exclusivity, but in reality, it's still just a surprisingly cheap product churned out in a factory somewhere. In this sense, any environmentally responsible small business would trump any of the so-called big companies, luxury or otherwise.

    Thank you, Rekeema, for another informative and great video! I never used the Bath & Body works candles as they seem sooo affordable (no exclusivity) and there is definitely no intriguing scents in their line, IMHO. I'd rather spend extra money on Diptyque or Trudon or Mad et Len candles as they have both - nice vessels and great scents. By the way, I started to use the Hestia candle warmer and it's a beast - it mealts the 270g Trudon candle on min in about 10 mins (because of it I have it turned on only for about 15-20 mins)! Crazy. But I'm afraid the candle warmer will destroy the candle's scent - did you experience something similar? Has any of your candles lost its scent because of the candle warmer?

    • @DetailedDream
      @DetailedDream  Год назад +2

      The scents from those 3 brands are definitely top tier! I still love using my warmer. its so good! But a candle will eventually start to lose its scent on the top layer. If I noticed ive been using a certain candle multiple times with the warmer, I would burn it the next time instead of using the warmer. It gives the candle a fresh new top layer of wax.

    "Luxury" doesn't always mean quality, it can, but usually it just means overpriced for bragging rights and egos sake. I'm all for people spending the money they earned how they want but to state that there is such a stark, insurmountable difference between a "luxury candle" (I snicker to myself every time I hear that term) and a B&BW candle is pushing it--hard. What smells good, smells good and if someone wants to pay more for their "Smells Good" so be it. I'll be just as happy paying less for the same enjoyment.

    I love how you talk and you’re funny. This video just got a new subby ❤ yes some still do have soot (I noticed the more gourmand scents do and candles with dark wax colors) and eucalyptus spearmint is my boyfriends favorite scent and he doesn’t even like smells 😂

    Love your take on this.
    Would love for you to go to a Bath & Body Works and smell some of their candles for old times sakes. Would make for an interesting video to see what you think of Eucalyptus Spearmint after all these years

    BBW candles burn so fast for me. Also, I get mild headaches from them. After watching this channel, I bought quite a few other brands. Now I know what I like, I tend to just buy a select few other brands and stop buying BBW. Tbh, I spend less now than before on candles.

    I don't think luxury brands want that much exposure. They have a cult following. They may want to stay exclusive and rare.

    The Mahogany Teakwood & Eucalyptus is the most top tiered candles that BBW, period.
    Outside of those, the scents are flat. Simply cutesy and gourmand. BBW is for my teenage daughters. BBW doesn’t provide the elevated profile/experience that “I” desire at my age.

    Ii just got some of their stuff on the buy 3 get 3 free sale. I got 5 things of body wash and a matching cologne. With that the body wash came out to $9 something a bottle. For only 10oz of body wash. That’s crazy. I can get 30oz of Irish spring for $6. I ordered it online. I might return it once it arrives. I didn’t really realize it was only 10oz when I ordered it. I should have looked at the description a little better.

  • @RebeccaL4

    The Slatkin & Co/Henri Bendel candles were top tier at BBW at one point. I dislike the inconsistencies of the burn with terrible wicks of most of their candles and how the cold throw doesn't match the hot throw at times. I've always been eagerly told by sales associates that I can just "return" it if the quality is poor. Don't mind that they have this policy, but I'm not going to gamble everytime I purchase a candle.
    I was addicted to 'Raspberry Peach Macaron' at one point only for it to be discontinued and repackaged over the years.😒 I think it's now 'Raspberry Mimosa' based on my nose. I understand the marketing/business side of it, but it's frustrating as a slightly picky candle lover. If I do buy BBW, it will almost always be a single wick. Not as many promos on that size throughout the year, but they burn cleaner than the 3-wick.

    BBW candles gave me a big headache, every time I lit them. I don't have this problem with the other candles I purchase, so not sure why this was the case with the BBW candles. I was also duped into thinking their candles are soy wax, but are really a "mix" and I do wonder how much of that mix is actually paraffin. I had to give away all my BBW candles, due to the headaches. Mostly I buy candles from small Etsy businesses now, who use only soy wax and fragrances without the toxic ingredients. I like supporting small businesses. But I also buy some of the candles you introduce on your channel :)

    I personally am looking for a candle with a resonable price, good scent throw, less toxic ingredients, and has quality burn and scent that stays consistent and clean. I have been having a fall out with BBW candles because they start to give me a headache and just feel nasty breathing them in after a while. Not sure why. Can anyone point me in a good direction? Much appreciated and excited to find my new signature and fav quality scents.

    I actually jumped straight into luxury candles lol I love DIPTYQUE. I dunno if there’s a better brand. I have tried Harlem Candle Co which I like and L’or De Seraphine that I don’t like but I always come back to Diptyque.
    Side bar: I found a cashmere candle by Henri Bendel and Victoria ‘s Secret at an estate sale only to find this brand went out of business during the pandemic and I am SAD. It was such a great scent.

Figuier is mild as a candle but the room spray is addictive, it’s my absolute Fav. I love all the room sprays… my favs being Figuier, Baies, Sapin (seasonal), and Rose. A lot of ppl like the Tuberose candlebut I dunno about that one. I do like Mimosa for the bathroom.
