Festival de Las Flores is my favorite from the collection. I have to agree that there is some indolic white floral in the mix, as I love jasmine and tuberose. I was able to smell the upcoming perfect in pink fragrance and it reminds me of the cherry shortbread candle. Great video! 😊
You are not wrong. Hometown Festival turns into something completely different when plugged in than cold sniff. I returned my used and unused bulb and I rarely make returns.
Kent...OMG! You are in your "it exists" era! Don't feel bad, honey. 😊 I'm in my "I can't believe it doesn't exist" era! For example...where is my fave Cider Lane candle this year?!? It was missing last year, too. (I know it's not ur fave, but humor me for a second😅). I'm wishing and hoping that Fireside Flurries comes back this season because that's another fragrance that was MIA last year. 😢All I know is I am going to go into my "desperate Mercari candle search" era if I dont see it on the shelves this year. 😂 And while that is a fun activity on occasion, it makes me wallet quite empty. 💸
I agree with you and others here about Hometown Festival. When I smelled the tester in the store I thought it was Summer Boardwalk with a little extra crisp apple, but plugged in I hated it! To me the apple went away and it was a weird woody/perfume undertone. Im returning it, and I don’t usually do that. I’m also returning Fresh Mandarin & Cedar as it’s another one that changed when plugged in.
I received my Christmas Candle Preview haul Yesterday and had 2 of The Cookie butter truffle candles in that order. On Cold it did have a tad bit of the Danbury shortbread similarity but once lit mine didn't throw very well at all and I burn all my Candles in one of my Hurricanes no matter the Strength. I figured the other one I would try under one of my candle lamps and see if it throws any better but it was underwhelming for me as well! The Danbury shortbread was much stronger with a much better throw in my opinion or at least for me it does. So I agree Kent it exist but nothing exciting about it for sure.
Hello, hello, hello, how are you? I totally participated today in the candle sale and I picked up a few of the new candles and I also picked up Platinum Platinum. I am burning it today and so far it doesn't really have that heavy of a throw to me to be honest and I got it as a single wick during the sale today for five ninety-five. But I did pick up a few fall goodies and I'm gonna wait to see for more Christmas drops.
Actual cookie butter is really delicious! I dip my strawberries in it. You should try it. It is so yummy perfect for fall also because it has a little bit of spice in it a little bit of cinnamon. I buy mine at Trader Joe’s and it’s not too pricey.
I only ordered Cookie Butter Truffle in soaps and I’m glad I didn’t get candles in it hearing your thoughts. I was wondering if it was similar to Merry Cookie. I think it would be nice in the soaps! Maybe not a candle so much. I did get as many Chocolate Covered Orange SWs as I could! Like 10 🎅🏻🎅🏻🎅🏻 I am so excited for it!
Thanks Kent. I wasn’t crazy about the hometown refill. I did enjoy the pumpkin chai a lot better. It put me in a fall mood. Kinda reminded me of the fall festival candle which I also enjoy🍂
Oh my God I love pumpkin chai I have not bought a wallflower in years probably since like 2021 and I bought pumpkin chai because it was 2.95 and I wanted to secure something on bopis with a reward it was the sweet cinnamon pumpkin room spray and it's been selling out like crazy at my store and all of a sudden appeared in stock online anyway so I picked pumpkin chai with total intentions a returning it or gifting it to someone and I just got in the mood to plug it in and see what it was all about and I love it so much and I wish I would have bought more!
16.95 for a Single wick is Wack!! Idk if I’ll pick up the Chocolate Orange candle. I still have a few Orange Chocolate Truffle 3 wicks, I may just tap into my stash and pull one out to burn ❤❤❤
I absolutely love pumpkin chai but i think the name is deceiving it doesnt smell like chai at all to me!! It actually reminds me of my beloved creamy nutmeg! I dont but wallflowers either but i needed to make a bopis order to redeem a reward and it was 2.95 so i got it!
Regarding the new Platinum fragrance. I received a free mini EDP for my gratis and I absolutely love it!!!!!! That’s another option to redeem rewards on since their body care is going up on prices.
They got rid of Autumn?? The last few years, it has come out late. I guess I was still hoping it would come out late... but now Christmas is here. Autumn is my #1 favorite of all time. 😭
@@sarahg4091 yes I kept track of when it would come out cause it would go fast,, it came out the last wk of august or the first wk of September which is a late release considering the fall candles get released in July. I’m shocked they took away this classic..I have one to burn which I don’t like doing til I have a back up.
Have u tried pumpkin smores wallflower plugged in? I never ever return used stuff. It has to be very bad. And i returned all of them i purchased. Everytime I would walk upstairs I would ask my daughter what she was eating bc it didnt smell good. Then realized it was the wallflower. It smelled savory for some reason to me 😮 not a fan. Love the candle tho!
@@candlefluffyperformsreview2034 I have one more in my collection that I purchased before it ever released on the floor that is tucked away in my collection. I may try to pull it out and try again. Maybe it was just a batch issue. Bc what I smelled was like savory food cooking and I curled my nose every time lol
Hey there Kent! "It exists" still makes me laugh!😂 I got thr Hometown Festival as well and was excited for something different. The scent description made me excited. Oh well...I guess I need to plug it in to find out how I like it.
I miss the clean, fresh, distinct body care BBW scents from the 90s. Now everything has the same offensive, alcohol, astringent base note. And heaven forbid they forget 'with essential oils' in the candles. Totally destroys any gourmond scent. Ugh.
I would LOVE to see you, Josh, and Sarita do a mini-collab of some kind about the Golden Days. Maybe fragrances that deserve to be brought back?
“Girl if this was At Big Lots Pffffffft “ really sent me🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Kent is so stinkin' funny. Love it. 😂❤
If they want to do gourmand herbals, they MUST bring back Sweet Rosemary Vanilla.
I am excited to smell Chocolate Covered Orange. Ugh such a shame if it doesn't get a 3 wick format...
I am using the term "juicy haulage" to my husband the next time I come back from shopping 😊
😂❤
OK I need to calm done as got excited to get another video from you! Now to the video... Love the Big Lots comparison, still LMAO!!!
We LOVE a Diablo player 🙏👏❤️
Totally agree on that single wick’s font!

Hold up! Let me get a beverage because I need to hear your first sniff impressions. Thanks for picking these up early.

Strength and actual performance is lacking these days from BBW imo

I always loved orange chocolate truffle on cold but it did not smell great burning at all. I’m hoping chocolate covered orange burns better. 🤞🏻

You should try some biscoff cookie butter! LIFE CHANGING! 😅 LOL So freakin yummy! Def addictive
cookie butter truffle smelled like peppermint sugar cookie without the peppermint. Same vanilla extract scent
Is that good or bad?
Is Cookie Butter Truffle a repackage of Cookies with Santa, do you think?
As a Diablo player, I loled at the reference.😆

Hello fellow Diablo player!! Thank you for your honest reviews.
Festival De Las Flores sounds pretty to grab for next spring.

How can bbw get rid of the classics like AUTUMN and now FIRESIDE plus the delicious peppermint sugar cookie.

Thank you for Festival De Las Flores review! It really said next to nothing in the scent descript

I have it. I enjoyed the candle, the wallflower is ok but it’s super strong & I can only plug it in for short periods.
I have it plugged in now and I am the complete opposite. I like it and it’s nice and strong. 😀

It exists 😂

I got a burnt smell to hometown festival wallflower refill. It smells terrible to me. I returned them.
Hometown Festival is so odd plugged in 🤢

Trader Joe’s has the best cookie butter just FYI hahaha 😂
