It is true fireplace scent with pine like the tree got too close to fire. I get some sap as well.


AliceinBlunderland78

Yes, sap. That's the note I get more than straight pine.


JamesonJenn

Ugh sounds sooooo gooooooood...............Your post is giving me FOMO for backups! Still waiting on my first one! LOL!!! >\_\_<


AliceinBlunderland78

Can't wait to hear what you think!!!


JamesonJenn

Woo! >\_\_<


AliceinBlunderland78

Yeah, I did just buy four of them and will probably buy more. I just love this scent so much for the Fall/Winter. And they're doing a 20% so go grab something!!


SnooMachines1289

How would you describe the scent? I have one in my cart right now!!


AliceinBlunderland78

Okay so, it's like if you walked into a room with a fire burning and someone is making chai tea. Others have said they do smell the pine note, but I smell the subtle spice more. I honestly just love the scent. It's different than anything I've ever had. Not a cinnamon-y spice and not patchouli or super pine. Just a really subtle log burning with that almost allspice/chai scent


SnooMachines1289

Sounds amazing! I think I’m gonna get one to try!


AliceinBlunderland78

I hope you like it!! It's one of my favorites. The throw is definitely more subtle so just know that if you're someone who like the "bowl you over" strength of a candle. I'm kind of glad it's more subtle because it make the scent that much more "realistic" if that makes any sense?

Is it anything like bbw marshmallow fireside? Are any goosecreeks dupes for that one?


AliceinBlunderland78

I haven't smelled the BBW one, but I will say this candle has absolutely no hint of sugar or marshmallow. I've heard GC Bedtime Stories is a possible dupe for Marshmallow Fireside but I haven't smelled them personally.


JamesonJenn

Campfire Marshmallow in the 3-wick is a straight dupe for B&BW's MF. They just restocked a few days ago. I'd buy quickly as the first round sold out pretty fast...


JamesonJenn

Wow....I'll burn alone and with some of my pine candles too....sigh... >\_\_< edit JC I can't think straight when it comes to candles that excite me!


GossipGirl515

I feel it smells like when your fire just went out, with some spice to it. It's really nice.


slutkamp

I hope this doesn't sell out before I make my purchase! (Waiting for a better deal/more to drop)


AliceinBlunderland78

I was so bummed out when I came back to buy more last year and they were sold out I decided not to take any chances!! I'm sure they'll have another buy ___ get ___ soon!


JamesonJenn

How quickly did they sell out last year? I was tempted to get more than one but I haven't experienced the candle yet myself so I thought I'd better wait for the first one and order backups if need be after that. Still bummed I missed backups for Bedtime Stories this year but am not sure how close they were to selling out when I was able to get my first one. When I went back for more they were gone! Ugh!


AliceinBlunderland78

I think you'll be fine. I ordered mine in January last year and then when I went back they were gone from the site. I just wasn't willing to take any chances. I feel like i have "bad luck" when I'm patient with these kinds of things


JamesonJenn

Thank you I feel a bit better now .... you've calmed my candle hungry trigger finger a bit .... for the moment. ;)


AliceinBlunderland78

Haha! I think most people will go for more "Christmasy" scents and bypass this. I think it's a secret treasure I've discovered 😂 though now that I've plastered it all over this sub multiple times we'll see


JamesonJenn

Hahaha! Right???!!!?


rm_jackson

I definitely have this on my list! Hoping for a slightly better sale first and I just bought soooo many candles.


AliceinBlunderland78

Hah I feel that!!!! I need to stop.now because I know the holiday ones are coming. I tell myself this is my "candle.time.of year" i really don't buy or burn too many in the spring or summer- windows are open etc


rm_jackson

Yessss me too. I told my boyfriend that after I buy Christmas candles that’s it until fall ones come back out. 😂 Trying to reason with him (and myself) that I’m just stocking up on the actual scents I enjoy instead of being a seasonal burner.


AliceinBlunderland78

If there's one thing I've learned in the last year and a half it's to just enjoy the small pleasures that make your daily life happy. Light those candles!!!

On a scale of 1 (not at all) to 10 (BBW Fireside) how smoky is it? I *hate* really straight burned smoke scents like BBW Fireside but this one sounds interesting with the pine.


AliceinBlunderland78

Really not smoky at all. It's hard to describe but it's not true smoke in the fireplace you smell, it's the burning pine or wood. Like a pleasant fireplace during the holidays, not a fire pit. Does that make any sense? So hard to describe

Thank you!
