I bought the Country Candle candles for years, and they were always stronger than the Kringle line. Once Kringle changed to the all soy wax is when I could barely smell their candles unless I was standing right over it. Sad, as they used to be my favorite candle company. Have a great vacation.

I’ve been with Kringle is 09..I LOVE the Kringle jars and the 3wicks..the Country jars always had problems and I’ve concluded that it’s the colored wax.. isn’t it kind of weird that the Kringle jars and the three weeks are white and always burn strong, with big throws..whereas the country jars have nothing but problems with soot/throw/consistenties etc etc and they’re in colored wax..it’s definitely the colored wax

I definitely think the jar style in the country line has a lot to do with the performance of those candles.

@@leesawarshauer7928 thanks for chiming in. I’m a little relieved to hear that others have this same theory. Yankee has been struggling with this same issue & I think it’s because ever since BBW came on the scene with a different vessel & wax formula, we’ve come to expect greater strength & throw from all of the brands. 🤔

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on these! Always appreciate! The kittens and cashmere was probably my biggest disappointment because I love the label so much but its WAY too fresh for me. I'm not sure I will ever be a fresh girl. You already know I have a bone to pick with you about Pinecones and Pomander lol. I can't believe we disagree on it 🤣
@katiesjoyfullife3 ай бұрын
@@MrKongsMom 😂😂😂. The label on that Kittens & Cashmere is everything, but it is definitely in that “fresh, crisp nature” category. Your pomander scent is way more my speed. Who knows how that Pinecone one will transform when it burns though? Sometimes I like them a lot more upon burn than on cold sniff. 😊 It looks like we’ve got a couple of “burn outside when company is over” scents in this release. 😉 I’m actually surprised that the Salted Maple Pumpkin is too sweet for you, although I shouldn’t be with the maple note. I know that’s not your favorite. I’m just excited to have received these & to get to burning them when I get home. 😊

Thanks for getting your first impressions uploaded before your trip. I am very interested in Toasty & Warm. It seems like it might be a dupe of Maison Margiela's Fireplace perfume, which BBW duped with Bonfire Bash. I'm curious how Bourbon Apple & Oud compares to the Reserve Red Delicious. Looking forward to Salted Maple Pumpkin and Pumpkin Rum Toddy. 😉💜

@@Angel-Dawn-13 you’re welcome! I have the Fireplace perfume & I’ll do a side by side comparison when I get home. I had Reserve Red Delicious last year & can say that BA & O is very different. It really reminds me of BBW Dark Amber & Oud with some lovely sweet apple in the background. 😊

These releases look fun. Bourbon Apple & Oud looks interesting. Almond Butter Cookie looks delicious. Kittens & Cashmere simply for the kittens aspect would be great, I'm one of those "fresh" scent lovers. I seem to steer toward them more sometimes. Glazed Blueberry Scone's look reminds me of Yankee's Blueberry Muffin or their version of Blueberry Scone. Interesting that it has a cranberry note. I would love to have Maple Woods simply for it being a Fall candle. Nice haul Katie. Happy burning.

That Maple Woods label looks like my backyard here in Massachusetts in the fall. I have to smell Kittens & Cashmere. I love Sweater Weather and fall fresh scents. Melanie found the blueberry candle very blueberry forward so I may have to try the daylight to see what I get.
@katiesjoyfullife3 ай бұрын
Yes I just finished watching Melanie’s video & it’s interesting that we pick up on some different fragrances. I get more dried cranberry with some blue & blackberries in that scone candle, but it’s definitely not a summer sweet blueberry scent to my nose. She also picks up more citrus in that Pinecones & Pomander & all I can smell is the astringent pine first. How I wish I could see beautiful fall colors like ones on that Maple Woods! If you like Sweater Weather & scents in that family, I think you’ll like Kittens & Cashmere. 😊
