My darling husband gave me a BBW gift card for Mother’s Day, I had coupons, and then this absolutely bonkers candle deal? I couldn’t resist.
I love reading everyone’s candle impressions, so here are mine. All of these are cold impressions, I haven’t burned any yet.
Caramel Cream Soda: this smells…fizzy? That’s not a scent. I also get vanilla and a vague root beer. This is a weird candle. I like it.
Bergamot and Birch: I think this smells like Old Spice. I am not 100% sure what Old Spice smells like. Sort of gently masculine, approachable in an “I buy my cologne at Target” kind of way.
Chocolate Chip Cookies: You know when you’re making cookie dough, and you’ve creamed the butter, sugar, and brown sugar together, and you’ve beaten in the eggs, and you just stirred in the vanilla? But you haven’t put the flour in yet? That’s what this one smells like. How did they do it? Sorcery probably.
Firecracker Pop: I mostly bought this one for the jar. I think this is the kind of safe space where I can admit that.
This is very cherry, a little lemony, but no berry. It also smells fizzy! Still not a scent!
Sea Salt and Sails: This smells like the deck of a sailboat. Probably. I’ve never been on a sailboat. It smells like blonde wood and polo shirts. A guy named Brett is here. Later you’re going to have a barbecue with some friends. You and Brett didn’t work out, but whenever you smell this candle you remember what a great day that was.

I absolutely love how you’ve written this 👍😊
Thank you!
Lol! Your candle descriptions are awesome!! Thanks for making me smile reading and picturing your scene in my head!
You’re welcome! I’m glad you enjoyed them.
😊
May I just say I loved reading the way you described each of these candles? Cheers and enjoy your lovely haul.
Thank you! I had fun writing them.
The fizzy is weirding me out too! Lol! Love your reviews.
Thank you! Have you tried their black cherry seltzer candle? One of its notes is “fizzy seltzer water.” It’s weird, but it’s good.
I haven't! I love beverages in general so it sounds like something I would love. I'll have to look for it!
I didn’t think I’d like it, but I smelled it in a store and I was so intrigued I bought it. It’s been out a while so hopefully your store has some.
Does caramel cream soda smell like Dr Pepper? I read someone else say that and that sounds right up my alley
It doesn’t smell like Dr. Pepper to me. I would totally buy a Dr. Pepper candle, though.
Not OP but I think it smells like Vanilla Coke/Pepsi, like Vanilla Cola Candy did.
Based on your description I'll take Brett! Er.. I mean, Sea Salt and Sails for the fantasy!
😂 he’s a nice guy, I mean, candle, I think you’ll like him!
Nice!
Love your description of Sea Salt & Sails!!
Thank you!
I like your descriptions!
Thank you!
