  • I found this BBW collection to be a disappointment 😥😥😥 Especially after the excellent Black History Month collection, this one is a real let down. That said, the Ginger & Hinoki candle is definitely the standout. But the bar is low 🤷🏻‍♀️
    I think the Sesame one will be the most popular.

    I agree, I need to catch up on my candles lol. I was just at BBW yesterday to buy First Sight, and the cashier asked if I was getting married. I said no, Sarita told me to buy this candle! 😂
    Also your home is really nice 😊

    I just picked up my haul and Roasted Sesame is exact to Pumpkin Peanut Brittle when I smell them side by side. I don’t smell any difference. I honest don’t think this is a new scent. I did enjoy Cherry Blossom Soju on cold. It leans perfume like to me and I liked the Cherry note. The other two are just misses for me and my liking.

      All of that sounds about right! With the exception of Ginger, these candles are suuuper basic for BBW, and I’m not surprised they seem like repackages.

    I’m in Canada - you should have seen the label once they squeezed the French text on there 😮 I only got the bamboo one and I found it so light burning. Would have bought the honoki one but couldn’t even pick up on the scent. The other two were no. I waited six weeks for these to come out and it was a letdown 😢 ETA: record player aesthetic is 🔥

    • @coffeecandles3359
      @coffeecandles3359  2 месяца назад +1

      Omg I’m laughing so hard about the French label 😂😂😂😂 Yeah it’s a real letdown. And I agree the Ginger is weak. But also the most interesting 🤷🏻‍♀️

    Great video! I would return all of them for that price! Lol. Roasted Sesame is Pumpkin Peanut Brittle, which is my favorite scent. It's natural and amazing while burning. I recognized it right away and told the associates.

    Sale prices starting today on the new summer releases. Love your record player & classic piece. Same here: grew up listening to classic 33” & 45” vinyl. Thanks for sharing! R☘️

    Thanks Sarita. I held off on the sesame one since heard very close to pumpkin peanut brittle, cause I have too many of those😂 The ginger & hinoke sounds interesting. Love the player and your nook❤

    Hello, hello there's 18 new BBW candles online released for Summer so far lol. They're $12.95 today and maybe tomorrow. I was born in 1980. Record players are cool. My father years ago bought Michael Jackson's Thriller album and played it on there. Nice record player. Might have to sniff their new ones today.

      Ok, Just got back from BBW and picked up a freebie After Dark hair and body wash for men along with these candles that are new to me: Under The Sun, Raspberry Rose (pronounced rosay), Sweet Tea & Lemon, Ginger & Hinoki, Bamboo & Eucalyptus, Summer Boardwalk, Surf Shop, Turquoise Waters, Starfruit Sangria, Oceanside Lavender, Citrus Grove, Bronzed Sunset, Santorini Coast, Sea Salt + Sails, Summer Rose Bud. The store I went to in the next town over didn't carry Palo Santo Vanilla of which I'm really curious about. The other two scents from that collection I'm saying no to.

    Thank you for the detailed impression! I totally agree about focusing more on the notes that are supposed to make these unique, and not just generic. I’m going to go in today and smell them. Looking forward to hearing how the ginger one burns. 😊

    Roasted sesame smells like “pumpkin peanut brittle” to me.

    Yeah, I don't love the labels. The front description square is too busy and looks blandly corporate. The wrap around looks vaguely like the background to a school photo circa '95. But hey, they can go in a hurricane- I gotta go out and smell these!

    Smh, Asian and South East Asian is completely different. This is definitely "Asian" kinda look. South East Asian has never been done at Bbw it's bright culture bright colors etc as you said. For ex. south east asian is India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and so on. Asian and Pacific is China, Japan, Phillipines etc. I should know the difference bc I'm south east asian.

      Yes, I agree. So sorry about that collection! They should have just highlighted the designers and not tried to highlight the culture. They didn’t do it well!
