    Another great haul, Deep Dish Apple Pie sounds amazing. The other look good too, I've got a long way to go to catch up on all these scents.

    Totally with you on the SAD in summer. I loathe the sun & heat. Oklahoma has cooked this summer and I am DONE with it. I think you're a fall baby like me, so that explains it. 🍂🍁🍂 Cloudy, dreary, rainy cool days are life! 😎

    Coast and only found them at Marshall’s, not TJ Maxx or HomeGoods for some reason by me.

      I found Spooky Spider Cider at Marshall’s 2 weeks ago. There were 3; I picked up 1. There were 2 Pumpkin Caramel Popcorn, which were gone in a flash. 💥No Homeworx left as of right now. I check 2-3 times a week just in case something else good pops up. 😉

    Hi Melanie! Quick note on Cozy Weekend. I purchased this last year and was also on the fence about it; however, after a few burns I warmed to it. I discovered it made a soothing "de-stress" candle to burn late evenings before bed. I would usually only burn it for about an hour. To my nose there was a just little bit of overlap with Fall Farmstand, which I also enjoy. (probably the honey note) Also, I won't tell you the international strings & favors I pulled to acquire a few Homeworx Blueberry Cheesecake from Europe! (I'm ashamed.) After being so DELIGHTED to receive them - they show up on QVC!! KICKING myself, but I do LOVE that scent!

    The mochachino crumb cake actually has a strong throw once lit. When I received my order I had to lit it up for a bit. And I agree about the Homeworx lids. Their certainly a lot cheaper looking/made than any of my others .. But anyway love the scent and I really don't get that much caramel..The Honey Graham I like as well.. in my opinion it's not as strong as the mochachino crumb cake when burning.. of course I've got to light them all let them burn for a short time when I first get an order to see how well I like them in case I want to back them up..Harvest bake shoppe is my favorite out of the 4 most recent releases and I smelled a nutty smell as well especially while it was lit..Harvest leaves is good also. I love them all but I think the Harvest bk shoppe is my favorite .It's delicious when lit .. and I am so happy Fall is coming I am with you as far as cold weather I love it! I do not like hot weather/ summer at all anymore.. I used to many years ago but not So much anymore... And I'm the same way as soon as my fall decor gets put away my home is full of Christmas decor. My tree goes up as soon as possible . Used to be right after Thanksgiving then I switched to right before Thanksgiving and now it's usually not long after Halloween.. lol.. but I'm trying to wait a little longer this year to enjoy my fall Decor a little longer before starting my Christmas decor.. That's my favorite time of the year.. as always i enjoy watching your videos.. 💗

    I am loving Harvest Bake Shoppe on cold. I didn't get Harvest Leaves yet, but plan to pick up a couple as soon as Spooky Vanilla is released. It also has caramel, but hopefully it's balanced with the vanilla and wood notes. I also picked up a couple of Scentworx candles from HW shop during the last sell. You have to try Very Berry Pie. It is sooo good on cold. I will definitely be getting some more. If you're ever in Home Depot, try an Aromahome Pumpkin Pie as well. It's delicious on cold as well. Thanks for sharing!

    Great video! I saw the Blueberry Cheesecake duo on QVC and thought of you. Glad you picked up a few. I’m intrigued with the Harvest Leaves, the scent notes sounds good. I have a Homeworx Pumpkin Patch that I put back last year and will burn this year. They now have a duo on QVC that I will pick up along with Harvest Leaves. I hope he brings back Hot Cider Donut because I only have one left. It’s currently sold out on the Homeworx website and QVC did sell it as a duo. 🤞🍩

    I fell in love with blueberry cheesecake and bought another set. Debating if I need a third. I was also so happy to see autumn Pinecone back I absolutely love that scent. To me that holiday bakeshop smelt like pecan pie. I also got Halloween candy and it smelt okay on cold sniff but when I burnt it I absolutely hated it. Smelt like feet to me so I am returning sadly I thought I was going to love it and bought two sets. I will definitely not do that again.

    I have been looking forward to Spooky Vanilla since it was on as Coming Soon, but 2nd note is freaking caramel. I was hoping for a true vanilla, just deeper and darker. I have so many lids, I was good and held off on buying more Harvest Leaves, but still have 3, maybe 4, left. After buying 10 Autumn Pinecone candles to add to the 2 I have, figures what I have would suffice. I seem to forget and need to remember that fall is only a few months long lol.

    Hi! I am a big Homeworx Candle Fan from Austria. We‘re going to visit Chicago soon and are looking for stores where we can buy those candles. Do you have any recommendations?

    • @MrKongsMom
      @MrKongsMom  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I'm not sure what it's like in Chicago but the only stores that you MAY be able to find HomeWorx are HomeGoods Marshalls TJ Maxx or Nordstrom Rack. I say may only because it can be hit or miss. For example, in my area (Oregon) they are not common and I have only found them at one TJ Maxx in my area and there are only a few. Some Ulta stores also carry them but only a select few fragrances. Your best bet is to order online and perhaps have them delivered to your hotel somehow? Not sure if this is doable but it will give you the widest selection. Enjoy your trip!!!
