Lots of missed opportunities. Like French baguette? I'm bummed. And relieved tbh, because this drop had weird timing in terms of Christmas and Thanksgiving being upon us. Feels like a valentine's day drop..
I am just tired of BBWs site glitches. I started ordering at 6AM and it kept glitching until 11 pm. What was about a $500 order, ended up being $78 after most of what I wanted was sold out. I ended up tossing out most of my candles except 2 Champagne in Paris. I am not spending all day trying to check out. Will go to GC before I do that again --this was the 4th time this year. Totally not worth it.
Yeah I smelled the macaron shower gel in the store and it reminded me of whipped berries and meringue. Almost identical. It's a real bummer that they couldn't come out with some really significantly different scents for this line. Seems lately that Bath & Body Works is running out of creativity big time.
Oh, well. I was hoping Lavender Luxe was the French Lavendar & Honey scent or Fresh Lavender & Honey from the limited-edition lavender candle collection they had back in 2019 or 2020. I can't believe that we've been waiting 12 years for the return of the Paris Amour candle! Loved Bonjour Paris as well, would love in candle form!💕
Emily, Bridgerton, Stranger Things - something tells me you don't want much TV which is probably a good thing! I'm SO grateful for these haul videos on YT - would HATE having to scroll through TikTok to find this kind of content on the tiny screen of my phone!
Hi, Kent. Would you be able to share what company you use to purchase your fragrance oils? I would love to make a candle in the 'Sweet on Paris' type of scent. Thank you, honey. Love Courtney in Atlanta 🍑
I wondered if maybe it was going to be a repackage of their French/Paris collection from 2012 but I can’t find info on it. I remember buying Springtime in Paris around that time and one other from the collection.
Lmao Kent I picked up Paris amour today..they turned on BOPIS on Sunday at my store and it was the one I forgot to pick up...When did this come out originally lol? I know it was a long time ago but when I smelled it I had flash backs of this stupid "gangster" night club I use to go to in my early 20s that this guy that was "considering" dating me use to take me to (so cringe)..my job as a delivery driver...and my first house I lived in on my own!! I love the fragrance but my scent memory brought back some stuff I certainly don't want to remember!
Is Lavender Luxe Dream Big Lavender Clouds? Think it was 2014. I Sold All My Bonjour Paris Bodycare. Went back-and-forth with that fragrance forever. I figured if I don’t love it right off jump then it’s time to get rid of it. So I sold all of it on Mercari. IMO Emily in Paris should release after the holidays. Fall Winter is odd for these type scents.
I had heard the lavender and macaron scents were likely repackages and Paris Amour stunk like grandmas bedroom to me in the past, so none for me. I guess I can't smell the freshness or sparkling facets. I do love tulips, apple and sparkling scents.
The packaging on this collection is nice, the Pocketbacs and accessories are cute, but the scents sound disappointing. I’m not into fruity florals, especially not “sparkling/champagne” ones. Kind of glad because I need to save money for Christmas. Very uninspired IMO.
Emily in Paris there is no new fragrance there!! Paris is a repackage, It's just been quite a while since it was here in body care. Lavender is very very similar to the lavender Body Care that was out for spring, it's pink sugar and French lavender. Macaron smalls very similar to Makesy strawberry vanilla macaron whip, They just seem to have mixed it with like milk or something because it's very very light on fragrance. And champagne in Paris smells extremely similar to springtime in Paris. Green apple!
Hey Kent thank you for sharing this! I was happy to see this review 😊 was most excited for the Marcoon Cloud and Paris Amour. 🩷🩶 so is the Paris Amour a repackage of Raspberry Rose maybe? 🌹🍒🍓🌹
"Idk who Emily is, I hope she's having fun in Paris." Iconic lol
This collection screams 2014 tween girl and I love it! 💕😭 10 year old me would have died for this packaging
Thank you for doing so many comparisons to see if these candles are repackages! I really appreciate that!

French baguette is one of my favorite scents I’m always wishing they would bring that back
I loved this video too. Especially the comparison were very accurate too.
I was hoping for Paris Café Bouquet 😢😊❤️
Same
Me too!!!
I follow your reviews because I appreciate the honesty so I don’t waste my money
Oh loving these packaging of these candles! Fun collab!

They shouldn’t still be having glitches! It’s ridiculous.

I have the entire body care set and it smells amazing but no staying power
Super excited about this collaboration as well. Thanks for the review. I can't wait until my order comes .
I'm saving LOADS of money... THANK YOU!!!😊🎉❤
At the very least they could have brought back Lavender Rosemary or Paris Daydream. What a bummer!

Thanks for the info, love!
Always appreciated🍃🌸
Oh yes!!!!❤😊
Can’t wait to get paid to get paid to get the entire collection. ❤❤❤
Happy to try Paris Amour and the Champagne in Paris.
I have wanted Sweet on Paris to return for yearssss but thankfully we can get a good fragrance oil dupe from small vendors
I loved the original Paris so excited to try the new remake of it!

But thank you Kent for bringing this to us so quickly. Now no FOMO for not being able to check out other than the waste of time.
Thanks Kent - looking forward to smelling in stores for sure! Wish Bath and Body Works would bring back Paris Cafe Bouquet!!!

Thanks for sharing. ❤
I have the macaron set in body care and it smells amazing in the bottles but has no staying power!!
Crazy that you still have alot of the older collection to refer to
I was watching a review from “this guy shops” and they also didn’t send him the macaron candle but instead the snowflakes one you got. That’s strange.
Glad i bought minis

As you were listing all the Macaroon scents from BBW PAST, I was thinking hot damn he knows his candles. Thanks for the review....

I never watched any of them - but im sure all the scents are glorious! 😏

I have sweet on paris and oohlala boujour love those

Emily has since moved to Rome. …

Firstttt 🎉
You mean 3 wicks. Lol
Thank you Kent! I always trust by our expertise. The show is super popular but I don’t understand why. It’s fluff. Not for me at all!
Hey Kent thank you for sharing this! I was happy to see this review 😊 was most excited for the Marcoon Cloud and Paris Amour. 🩷🩶 so is the Paris Amour a repackage of Raspberry Rose maybe? 🌹🍒🍓🌹
No its not
Like the packaging.❤
