I have this one but haven’t burned it yet. After the review, I’m not sure if I should keep it. I actually like the smell on cold and hope it smells as good while burning. I hope that it performs ok and has a descent throw. I like that yeasty bread smell. Also, I’m not a fan of strong spices. Great review! Thanks, girlie🍃🌸

My burn was so bad from the get go that I just decided that I didn’t want to have to deal with that for a fragrance I was t crazy about. I hope yours does better though 😊

Hey Katie, I see puny wick syndrome coming up there, my Leaves did that to me and now I'll be cutting the wax around them to hopefully make it burn again. Sounds like it should've been named "Spoiled" lol. Glad you're taking care of the situation. Toasted Cinnamon Sugar got bad reviews for suffering the wick issue from what I've heard. Hope you get a wonderful exchange.

@@scottvanhille5688 thank you! I ended up exchanging it for Pumpkin Clove today.

@@katiesjoyfullife Nice! I'll be burning that one next Fall. Sounds good.

What a bummer! I can see someone thinking yeast like this smells weird. Its my favorite smell ever as a baker. 😍 I actually think this is the most authentic doughnut scent ive ever smelled actually. Most doughnuts are made with yeasted dough so i think they nailed it. Harrys smells like a normal pastry to me. I dont get the yeasted dough from his so its not super authentic for me. I really think its a nose thing.. my fiance doesnt care about candles but he is actively obsessed with this thing. Never seen him so excited about a candle haha. Ive seen a few people say it smelled totally off to them as well though. You just literally never know how your nose will interpret something.. i hope you find something more to your liking! Have you been to tjmaxx and HomeGoods lately? They have the hand soap, body lotion and a giant body wash in hot cider donut if you'd ever use it as body care. I got the body wash and I'm enjoying it more than the HCD candle 🥳

@@chrisray5853 it’s always reassuring when I know it’s not just me who thought it smelled off. Thanks for chiming in!
