Hi, I’m in agreement with you regarding trimming the Caramel Sundays wicks. I’ve done the same thing by blowing them out, trimming and relighting after a couple of hours. I definitely keep their wicks trimmed a bit shorter than other brands but they never seem to get puny wicks and they pool out perfectly for me. I’m happy to do a little bit of maintenance because the end result is definitely worth it! 🙂
Glad I'm not the only one who takes this approach. It's really helped minimize any sooting towards the end of the candle's life. I'm excited for their launch this Sunday.
Hi Katie, I am with you with BBW. I did have a haul for I had a coupon, hit the 75 off table and I got the Goose. I think I am returning 1. . It smells different on cold ow I got home. I am done shopping with them until end of the year. I think going forward I will be sticking with YC and Kringle and the occasional Homeworx
I'll still purchase here and there from them, but they definitely won't get the bulk of my candle budget. There's too many other brands putting out better quality IMO.
Thank you for sharing, Katie. I had the same experience with Cinnamon Spiced Vanilla this season. I’m very much enjoying Kringle Cypress & Cinnamon and Frosted Spice. I’m really hoping Kringle keeps medium jars in their line up. I messaged them to request that. Enjoy the rest of your January candles. R☘️
@ if you’re asking me, I usually work through my Kringle Candles before having them for 6 months. Certain scents & formats are stronger than others. Hope this is a somewhat helpful answer. R☘️
Those were two hits from the 2024 holiday lineup for sure! I got great performance from both and the fragrances were so good too! I was bummed that my CSV didn't perform better because it's a great scent.
@@jg9622 I gave more thought to your question & explored the dates on my Kringle candles… I have a few from 2022; the scents do smell stronger. I finished one this week that had an enjoyable moderate-high throw. So yes, it seems like the fragrance gets stronger with more sit time. Hope this helps a bit more. R☘️
BBW has those hit or miss candles, my Champagne Apple & Honey has a wick out and had to relight after taking some wax out the other two. Frozen Lake was perfect, no issues with those thin stiff wicks. I might have YC's Buttercream Frosting from one of their generic lines, it doesn't smell completely authentic. Nice empties. So cool to see what people are burning and even some old school fragrances that they've enjoyed. YC's Frosted Wintergreen dupe Evergreen Frost in a large double wick tumbler is burning fantastic right now, really like the pine note. Getting puny wicks really sucks, I don't have a crock to finish them. Can't wait to use my luxe Spun Vanilla Sugar. YC has a new Italy collection on their site: Pistachio Latte, Olive & Cypress, Capri Glow, Lemon Gelato, and Azure Sky.
I saw Connor's video of the new Yankee collection and I'm actually intrigued by all of them! My nearest store is an hour away, so I'm not sure I'll get in store to sniff them any time soon, but I'm waiting for a good 3 wick sale to try them out.
Love the reviews,Thank you Katie 💜
You're welcome!

Do you feel Kringle candles get stronger if you leave them unburned for three to six months?

@@katiesjoyfullife Nice, I wish the store here didn't close down, or I'd get them too. Looking forward to your reviews and his of them.
