Your description of Midnight cocktails is spot on! I couldn’t decide if I liked it or not because it was so different than what I’m used to, but if I see it during SAS I’m definitely picking one up! (and another Praline Delight)
My favs are pistachio toasted vanilla, praline delight, pumpkin pecan waffles, luminous, pumpkin cinnamon bun, pumpkin snickerdoodle, sugared snickerdoodle, caramel frappuccino. I'm w you...Im a huge fan of bbw. I have no problem w their return policy. I love their balance of new and repackages. I love seeing their new designs! I spend more $$$ there than at any other store at the current moment besides on groceries😂. Thanks so much, Kent! ❤
Great list! Always love your videos. Here’s my top 10 of the year list 1. Rose + Lychee 2. Blush Geranium & Fern 3. Santorini Coast 4. Under The Sun 5. Strawberry Melon 6. Hot Pink Cocoa 7. Midnight Cocktails 8. Flower Cart 9. Purple Patchouli 10. Amethyst Dreams
Great picks! I bought midnight cocktails but havent burned it yet. I tried to step out of my comfort zone this year and try some new stuff! Ive had alot of exciting scents this year. I also picked up palo santo at candle day so i think ill love that one too! I did get 3 of the pecan delight ones and i burned one and loved it. Im kinda hoarding the other two lol. I loved the apricot and fig one and pumpkin carving. I tried fall farmhouse and leaves this year. Loved them both. Im pretty new to candles. Only been buying for a few years so so many are new to me lol i really appreciate all your videos and how you go in depth with your thoughts and how you give your honest thoughts! Also congrats on your goose creek artwork! You did an amazing job!
I bought my first B&BW candle last month in the Twisted Peppermint scent. I was really surprised because they are generously scented, more than other candle brands like Yankee Candle. Will definitely be repurchasing.
@@catdee0122 So far, my favorites are Twisted Peppermint and Fresh Cut Lilacs. I've had several misses though. I found that Christmas Tree, Purple Patchouli and a few others were not generously scented strongly and I had to hold them close to my nose to catch a faint whiff of scent. TP and FCL are the strongest I have found so far in their line of single wick candles.
Praline delight is amazing! I burned hot and high at times ,but it was a flawless burn all the way to the clips! I got every penny of my money out of that candle and it filled my huge mast bedroom with ease! So glad i have backups 🤩
Lots of great picks Kent! Sea salt neroli screams spa day at a beautiful resort to me. I love hot cocoa and cream and tree farm this time of year. Too many to choose a top 10. Love your picks
Awesome 👏🏾 I have PBNJ also. I also love wild berry &Ube, Happy Hanukkah, crunchy English toffee, hot pink coco and Sweet tea & lemonade and White chocolate & macadamia nut
I am mostly a gourmand lover but I was smitten with Vanilla & Musk and Santorini Coast! I felt we got a lot of newness. I haven't figured out my top 10 yet because I like to finish a candle before I make my final analysis. So far, I would have to consider Marshmallow Fireside/ Black Cherry Merlot Blend and the Rose Water & Ivy/ Vanilla Bean blend as well as Cozy Sunday Evening. "No worries, Kent will change his mind and end up loving it when he finishes it and isn't hurrying to get out a review." This was my Reddit comment 11 months ago re: Pink Lavender Espresso. I am sorry if this is the comment that hurt your feelings. It was never my intention. I have watched your content over the years and noticed that your first impression and your final opinion changes once you have finished a candle. I don't think it's a bad thing. I really enjoy watching your content. You are always transparent with your evolving opinions. My prediction about you eventually loving PL& E was wrong😮. It didn't make your top 10 list after all. I am pretty sure it's not going to be on my top 10 list either 😂
Iced lemon pound cake, Wildberry ube, and the pb j were my faves! Happy to see Ciao Bella Sweet Tiramisu back as PSL. Hoping some of them come back next yr and that hot fudge sundae returns! ❤
Crunchy English Toffee is my latest favorite. It smells like it has a malted chocolate scent to me and I don't usually like any chocolate scents. Wildberry and Ube is also another favorite. I hope I find the blueberry pumpkin patch at SAS.
I went on a no buy BBW for most of the year until candle day and body care day. I'm so sad I missed the PB&J, Praline, the Blueberry one and the Maple one. Just from memory, my favorites are Peanut Brittle, Blueberry Pie, Cranberry pie burning 1 right now), Positively Sweet, Banana Bread, Dutch Apple, Maple Pecan Waffles, Pineapple Pancakes, Chocolate Chip Cookies, the one that smelled like Fruity Pebbles and the most recent one, Feliz Navidad. I hope they bring some of those back.
I have been a longtime subscriber and I love your review and opinions! I just love how you read the haters with a smile on your face! Keep being yourself ❤
My fave this year was Sweet Tea & Lemonade. My least fave was Apricot & Fig…. Bc it smelt like it has Tokyo Petals in it, but it was too perfumey & not like Tokyo Petals with apricot
The more I burn The Perfect Winter, the more the tree scent comes out, and I love it! I hate that I didn't pick up any Blueberry Pumpkin Patch and Cozy Sunday Nights.
Very nice review but not all these types exist here in Egypt the first one but it is the one that exists and really smells beautiful thank you for the review and if it came from him in Egypt I will certainly try it
Hi Kent, loved your line up. I really loved sea salt and neroli, I kicked myself for just getting one of those. I have half left of the one I bought. Wild berry and Ube same thing loved it. Thank you so much for all your reviews this year and past years, you help me to choose which candles to purchase and not waste time.
First off, would say one of your top '23 candles would have Rose in it! lol We tend to forget BBW has a great return policy even if slightly burned - good to re-visit it.
It took forever for me to get The Perfect Winter, and I hate that it came shattered. Whoever packed my box opted out of the bubble wrap, and of course, it's sold out, so I couldn't get a replacement.
I agree with you so much on all your comments about B&BW candles!! Sooo many people criticize them ( Bath and Body ) for literally EVERYTHING! There are always hits and misses with all candle companies. People don't seem to get that. You get candles with strong throws and candles with absolutely no smell and everything in between! I love your reviews! I'm a new subbie here! Merry Christmas!! 😅😍❤️💚❤️💚🥰🩷💯❄️🎄☃️🫶

Yea, I almost didn't even pick up Midnight Cocktails but got it just because it was new. Glad I did!
I’m glad you enjoyed these candles. Here’s hoping to a stellar 2024 in scents at BBW. With lots of returning faves and interesting new mixes. 🙌💖
So true....we dump on B&BW so much it's unbelievable. Loved your top 10!
I think it's just a representation of the human condition that we're never satisfied lol.
Praline Delight was the literal best this year, and i LOVED the label. It was SO RICH. Great choice.

Caramel Frappuccino turns bad midway through.
Great list! Always love your videos. Here’s my top 10 of the year list

3. Santorini Coast
4. Under The Sun
5. Strawberry Melon
6. Hot Pink Cocoa
7. Midnight Cocktails
8. Flower Cart
9. Purple Patchouli
10. Amethyst Dreams

Welcome to the Rabbit Hole!.

Same! Thats my first B&BW scented candle! ❤

Oh my gosh yes! Love when a candle performs like that. Feels like you're getting your money's worth.
Same I was in love with that candle I went thru it so fast
Mine too! I burned 5 of them and only have 2 left 😅 wish I baught way more lol
Lots of great picks Kent! Sea salt neroli screams spa day at a beautiful resort to me. I love hot cocoa and cream and tree farm this time of year. Too many to choose a top 10. Love your picks
Awesome 👏🏾 I have PBNJ also. I also love wild berry &Ube, Happy Hanukkah, crunchy English toffee, hot pink coco and Sweet tea & lemonade and White chocolate & macadamia nut
No lie. I loved every single candle you named! They were also all of my favorites 😍
Yes! Midnight Cocktails surprised me as well. Hoping I find at SAS.
Praline Delight is my hands down favorite of 2023! Delish ☺️
I like the packaging & Radiant Red Maple scent. Today I burnt Wildberry & Ube. I think your favorite scent would be something Rose.:)
I may be the only one on the planet who LOVES Apricot & Fig, but I do! Mine smells like peaches with a sharp note cutting it.
I love it also people slept on that one..
Sea Salt and Neroli was my favourite of the year.
Simply excellent! That and Fresh Lemon Waves are so good.
Yes Ken...that excitement for Rose & Lychee is so real 😅

OMG your comment was a response to mine on Reddit lol
Iced lemon pound cake, Wildberry ube, and the pb j were my faves! Happy to see Ciao Bella Sweet Tiramisu back as PSL. Hoping some of them come back next yr and that hot fudge sundae returns! ❤
Pumpkin Cinnamon bun is my number one.Sugared Snickerdoodle Goldenberry Misteltoe
Pumpkin Caramel Swirl was my favorite. So good and really strong! ❤
Crunchy English Toffee is my latest favorite. It smells like it has a malted chocolate scent to me and I don't usually like any chocolate scents. Wildberry and Ube is also another favorite. I hope I find the blueberry pumpkin patch at SAS.
Great list! I just discovered Wildberry Jam Donut. I missed Radiant Red Maple.
Salted grapefruit shores was my fave for the
Year.
I went on a no buy BBW for most of the year until candle day and body care day. I'm so sad I missed the PB&J, Praline, the Blueberry one and the Maple one.
Just from memory, my favorites are Peanut Brittle, Blueberry Pie, Cranberry pie burning 1 right now), Positively Sweet, Banana Bread, Dutch Apple, Maple Pecan Waffles, Pineapple Pancakes, Chocolate Chip Cookies, the one that smelled like Fruity Pebbles and the most recent one, Feliz Navidad.

I love PB&am ice cream. Just burned the other night. Loved seeing this video.

I totally believe in manifesting what you want!!
My fave this year was Sweet Tea & Lemonade. My least fave was Apricot & Fig…. Bc it smelt like it has Tokyo Petals in it, but it was too perfumey & not like Tokyo Petals with apricot
LOL so glad someone else gets the Tokyo Petals comparison with that candle.
The more I burn The Perfect Winter, the more the tree scent comes out, and I love it! I hate that I didn't pick up any Blueberry Pumpkin Patch and Cozy Sunday Nights.
The Perfect Winter is awesome!
Very nice review but not all these types exist here in Egypt the first one but it is the one that exists and really smells beautiful thank you for the review and if it came from him in Egypt I will certainly try it
So many good ones!
Hi Kent, loved your line up. I really loved sea salt and neroli, I kicked myself for just getting one of those. I have half left of the one I bought. Wild berry and Ube same thing loved it. Thank you so much for all your reviews this year and past years, you help me to choose which candles to purchase and not waste time.
Candle 🕯️ Day was so amazing 🤩 this year
Wildberry and Ube would be my guess for one of your top favs
First off, would say one of your top '23 candles would have Rose in it! lol We tend to forget BBW has a great return policy even if slightly burned - good to re-visit it.
Well a lot of ones missing here for me 😂 Pink Lavender Espresso is the big one, but I also loved Salted Amber & Vetiver and Fall Forest 😍
PLE was too similar to Lavender Marshmallow to feel like a truly new fragrance to me. But I did enjoy the other 2 you mentioned!
It took forever for me to get The Perfect Winter, and I hate that it came shattered. Whoever packed my box opted out of the bubble wrap, and of course, it's sold out, so I couldn't get a replacement.
I feel like this year was a hard year for scents lol but I’m gonna guess either raspberry jam thumb print or that rose water ice cream one😁
Pink petal tea cake??🎉🎉🎉
OMG. I am hoping to find Rose and Lychee at SAS.. I only got 1!!😢.
Right! There were still a ton left at my store so hoping they put them back out.
I’m so upset with myself for getting only ONE Crunchy English Toffee/ Praline Delight/Cozy Sunday Night! I wish I had back-ups of all three.😢
🤍🤍🤍🤍
Tiki beach blew me away and i hate coconut scents!!!!
