Thanks for sharing! My biggest store had Roasted Sesame, and tons of ginger/ hinoki and bamboo/ Eucalyptus. I was underwhelmed with the BE throw so no need for more of that... I wanted to love RS but after your review and everyone comparing it to a gourmand, even for $6.74, I passed on it. BUT I got 4 Vanilla Coconut Surf at 75 off so I left happy 🎉❤🎉❤
Score! I wish I had found Vanilla Surf during SAS. I’m noticing lots of that roasted sesame collection at 75% off everywhere… and still they’re not moving. I hope BBW takes note tbh.
I definitely get more of a sesame oil scent in this candle compared to PPB. I love, love, love PPB, so im not mad, because this one is super similar. I agree, theyre not exactly the same. But i think if you like one, youll like the other
@AllAbootCandles I feel like PPB makes sense with the pumpkin spice for the fall. Roasted Sesame is more of a niche type of preference. It's not seasonal, just roasty and nutty 😅
I looooooove this candle - potentially my all time favorite at BBW. It fits my ideal scent profile exactly (savory/nutty/salty + sweet gourmands). I stocked up yesterday when they were $6 each. To each his own!
Aside from Bamboo & Eucalyptus, shockingly this was my 2nd fave of the collection and I'm not even a Gourmand lover lol. I thought I was for sure going to pass on this one. Repurchased one more to enjoy during the cooler months. Great review as always 🤗.
Hi Greg!! I'm stuck with the ginger and hinoki woods. Like you've said before, it's just way too light. Such a bummer across the board on this collection. I totally get when you say you appreciate the fragrance but not enjoying your personal space smelling like it. Brilliant☺️ will take that with me going forward on this wild and crazy candle journey.😅Thanks for another amazing video!!
Haha yes I have learned that there are some fragrances you want to smell like, some you want in your environment, and some you don’t want at all. I’ve also noticed I don’t particularly like tea scents in my space. I like tea and enjoy tea fragrances.. but like roasted sesame they feel weird to me in a space.
@@Hopetheressomeone thanks! I just went to snoop around again… nothing I’m super interested in. But a lot of good ones also just went down to $11… soooooooo I placed an order lol.
Bummer Greg, I do have a couple of these I’m saving for cooler weather. I do live in Florida, it’s way too hot for this scent profile right now. I just ordered a couple more, they’re 75% off now. I do love PPB and everyone is saying it’s a dupe.
I think it’s similar to PPB but not exact. I’m pretty certain because I love PPB, and this one not as much. Glad you scored the deal! We just had a bunch of price drops too and I placed another order even after SWEARING I was done for a bit.
@@AllAbootCandles lol same they know how to get us 🤑 You don’t want to know how much I spent this SAS!! I did enjoy myself though, until another price drop I guess 🤷♂️
I almost bought this one today for 75 percent off....it does smell the same to me as ppb and i was thinking i could knock that one out of the way for super cheap but i didnt end up getting it....
Love this one! Got four today at 75% off.
Nice! What a score!
Me too! I purchased 3. 75% off. I hope it's a good one. 🤞🏽
That damn text box on the front 😂 literally it gets me and causes me to bitch about it every time one is in conversation 😂
Seriously. I feel bad for the designer that has to act like that’s how they want it to look.
@@AllAbootCandles facts 🤦♀️🙊
All of your thoughts are so valid on this candle ! I personally don't want to smell this scent in my house but if you mix it with jam I am here for it
Mix it with jam… you’re a genius!
Haha we have had similar
You have such a nice cheery energy. I bought this candle and loved it!
I felt like the throw was pretty strong honestly
Oh thank you! I’m glad you liked it!

Yeah I love PPB too which is why I’m pretty certain this wasn’t exactly the same. I hope it comes back this year I’m on my last one!!

It’s so odd because I liked the fragrance.. just not as a home fragrance. Thanks Sommer!
My son loves this candle. I am with you. Just a bit too much. Have a wonderful week ❌️ ⭕️
Thank you! You too! I love that your son is a candle fan!
@@AllAbootCandles He is! He likes a good gourmand. He also loves fresh bamboo.
@@lisasmith7 Fresh Bamboo is a fave of mine. He’s got good taste! Lol

Greg, the BBW 2023 Fall and Christmas candles finally went down to 75%off online. 🤗

@@ericlemite6800 I try not to buy for the month of July… SAS is over and I don’t want fall for a while yet.. well July 1st I broke my rule..
I almost bought this one today for 75 percent off....it does smell the same to me as ppb and i was thinking i could knock that one out of the way for super cheap but i didnt end up getting it....
I swear it can’t be exactly the same as PPB because I really like burning that candle.. this one was just too roasty and oily for me at times.
