Kringle Fall 2023 First Sniffs Preview: Gourmand dreams do come true!

[@janetmyers6120]

Thank you for the discount code. That was very gracious of you.

[@MrKongsMom]

Oh yes, thanks to Kringle for that! I love that they offer this! They really are a great company in terms of their product and to work with. Really genuinely nice people.

[@anns2scents136]

I really enjoyed listening to you describing these scents...I had to jump on the Bourbon Bonfire first for the label and then the smoky note.. I sure hope I like it...the others I picked up in melts to test the scents since I am overrun with candles from buying large jars right off the bat over the years. Thanks again for taking time with these candles.

[@MrKongsMom]

Thanks so much for being here Ann! I can't wait to hear what you think of the Fall scents after you try them. Bourbon Bonfire is sure to be a fave of those who love that smokey note!

[@ashleyholm5523]

I am OVER summer. It’s so flipping hot out…bring on fall!!! So excited for all the fall scents, pumpkin patches, cooler weather and hoodies.

[@MrKongsMom]

Me too!! Just seeing all those yummy fall things spelled out like that makes me so happy. There is something so special about Fall.

[@connorlovescandles]

I knew you would love Cherry Crumble!! Can’t wait to see your reviews!

[@MrKongsMom]

You were so right!!!!!

[@connorlovescandles]

@@MrKongsMom and I believe the candle your referring to is Cranberry Pumpkin from Bath & Body Works!

[@susiematthews9549]

Yayyyyyy for Fall....🍁🌰🍂🍎🏚️

[@annashaffer8657]

Leaf Peeper sounds beautiful! Getting excited for fall 🍂🍁🍃

[@MrKongsMom]

I burned it today Anna... its so much better than Leaves. I may never buy leaves again.

[@annashaffer8657]

@@MrKongsMom oh wow!!! That’s a strong statement! Definitely going on my must try list now. Thanks, Melanie 😊

[@susiematthews9549]

Oh my goodness I'm so glad you like the cherry crumble, I always wait for your reviews but I was so afraid they were going to run out of this one so I ordered two large candles in this scent. I was so worried it might be mediciney but usually when I see they've added raspberry or another berry to a cherry it's usually pretty good. So now I'm so EXCITED that you like it!!! 🍒and I ordered 1 waffle.

[@MrKongsMom]

These are all so well done! Honestly I am really pleased!

[@tarynbell2962]

I’m here for all the Fall content 🍂🍁🎃👻

[@MrKongsMom]

Oh gosh, is it still only the middle of July lol????

[@donna1844]

Thanks so much for your descriptions of the new fall collection! I know you’re a gourmand scent lover but I’m not so I’m disappointed with this release. I don’t do boozy or fruity scents either so there isn’t anything that interests me. I was hoping for some good outdoorsy, woodsy, smoky scents for the fall, which Kringle does so well. I know you’re very happy with this release! Enjoy burning / melting and I look forward to your post burn reviews. Thanks Melanie!

[@MrKongsMom]

Awe, I am sorry to hear that you are not as excited about the more gourmand route this Fall. I will say, you will likely really love Bourbon Bonfire. It has the smokey outdoorsy vibe that you may well love. You may have some more options when it comes to the holidays!

[@CandleswithDillon]

Yay you uploaded another haul. I love your videos! How long are you holding off on switching to fall candle burning?

[@MrKongsMom]

So my full transition to Fall is end of August (because I decorate for Fall early lol!). My motto is that as soon as the pumpkins are up on the mantel, I am burning all the Fall things! Starting with apple....

[@scottvanhille5688]

Apple Pumpkin Pie looks good. I have Yankee's version and it has a crust note in it which makes it different from Apple Pumpkin. Spicy! Autumn Spice will work for me. Sign me up for Candied Orange. I think I would go for Country Candle first due to the double wicks and soy. Cherry Crumble looks amazing for Fall. Chocolate scents can be good if done right. I'd go for it. I have Yankee's Banana Bread and Home Inspiration's Banana Nut Bread and both smell so delicious that I believe I'd love Banana Muffin. I really like grape scents. I have Yankee's Vineyard and Tuscan Vineyard and looking forward this year to burning one of them. Warm Cinnamon Buns would be great as a transitional candle for the Fall. Nice haul.

[@ReillyWilde]

So excited for Autumn Kringle candles! Thank you for sharing your initial scent impressions. Autumn Spice sounds good to me. Curious about Leaf Peeper, too.🍁 BTW, I’ve also experienced that although the box says it contains candles, delivery people tend to place boxes in the sun although I have a large shaded porch.🙄 During 90-100 degrees I have candles sent to a mail store box. Looking forward to receiving wax melts to sample. 🍁

[@MrKongsMom]

Leaf Peeper and the pumpkin waffle one has convinced me to NEVER need another BBW Leaves or Pumpkin Pecan Waffles from them again! Kringle did them better lol!

[@ReillyWilde]

⁠@@MrKongsMom Agreed! Leaf Peeper is so much better than BBW Leaves. 🍂 That & Autumn Spice are good to pick up in full sizes.🍁 Rosemary Applerita is too perfumed to my nose. You’re spot on that the rosemary is the same in Rosemary Grapefruit. Vineyard Harvest reminds my nose of a kid’s grape juice box. 🍇 🧃

[@TheCarlrivera]

Hiii!!! It’s been forever. I discovered you last autumn and fell in love with your reviews. Been swamped with life stuff and have missed your videos. I’m working in Marlboro VT for the festival this summer and it’s 30mins from Kringle and I went today. It was awesome and made me think of you. I really wanted to peek at Halloween but they had nothing.

[@MrKongsMom]

Welcome back! I bet the trip to Kringle was so fun!!! I am jealous!

[@ScarletteSun]

Good cherry scents are so hard to find. I'm on a big big cherry kick this year so I'm way too excited for cherry crumble. ❤

[@MrKongsMom]

Oh gosh! I hope you love it!!!! Did you love Cranberry Pumpkin from BBW?

[@zabethvi]

I'm so glad you received the candles and glad there are more gourmond scents. Definetly wanting to purchase the Country Candle for the first time, now that its all 100% Soy. The four candles on my wishlist are Apple Pumpkin Pie, Bourbon Bonfire, Pumpkin Waffles, Warm Cinnabuns. Bring on the Fall!!🍂🍁

[@amberaouatefi]

Hi Melanie. I am getting so excited for all the Fall candles to arrive! 🥰. I absolutely love Fall & Holiday scents, especially the bakery type ones!! These sound amazing! I have never tried Kringle Candle as it's expensive to ship to Canada. Hopefully one day I will get a chance as the new soy formula seems great. For the Cherry Crumble, were you thinking it reminds you of BBW Sweet Cranberry Pie(Tart cranberries, brown sugar, chopped walnuts and a flaky pie crust) that was released during the holidays?! That was an amazing candle! 🥰. Thanks for sharing these. They all look beautiful and sound like a great assortment of Fall scents. Hope you enjoy them! Have a great day. Take care 🙂❤

[@susanl.5226]

Oh, yea. I was thinking of 2015 Cranberry Pumpkin, but Sweet Cranberry Pie probably makes more sense. Lol. Either way I love both of those candles. Ordered Cherry Crumble in full-size. ;-))

[@amberaouatefi]

Cranberry Pumpkin was also a delicious BBW Fall candle! I absolutely loved both the Cranberry Pumpkin and the Sweet Cranberry Pie! 🥰. Unfortunately, I no longer have a Cranberry Pumpkin in my collection left but I do have a Sweet Cranberry Pie that I am cherishing! 🤣❤. I think all these Kringle scents sound lovely! I hope you enjoy them! 🙂

[@MrKongsMom]

Its like a mix of those two! But more Cranberry Pumpkin. I have one upstairs and sniffed them side by side.... incredible! I will be stocking up on more candles and melts.... Don't sleep on this one!

[@laurierz]

I'm so anxious to hear your post burn reviews, especially the Candied Orange. I ordered the daylights. They were all so strong on cold sniff and I could smell them when I walked in the room they were in. The two I've burned went scentless once I lighted them, which I can't imagine why. I'm hoping the actual candle won't do that.

[@MrKongsMom]

I am filming the Fall reviews this week and its been fun! The full size is not scentless but it is a medium throw. I never really smell daylights unless they are in my tiny powder room downstairs or I am sticking my nose over them in other areas. To me they are essentially a tester for the scent and what I can roughly expect scent wise while burning.

[@CandidlyKim]

I had to get the chocolate orange. Have you ever had the terry’s chocolate orange at Christmas? I wasn’t supposed to buy anything until the Halloween candles came out. Oops

[@zebralove2840]

Ooooh, my daughter used to buy me one of those choco oranges every Christmas, I may have to get this!

[@MrKongsMom]

YES! I buy the Trader Joe's version of the Terry's (just as orangey and delicious!) and its so yummy! I was so excited about this scent!

[@hollymyers4665]

I am so ready for fall weather. I can't even get from the house (or any air conditioned building) to the car without breaking a sweat. It is humid here too. I ordered 7 of the scents in wax melts & daylights considering most wax melts were sold out. I plan to chop them to melt. Thank you for sharing your first impressions.

[@MrKongsMom]

Oh that type of heat is the worst honestly. So invasive lol! Sending you cooler weather vibes Holly!

[@tarasfragrancedworld]

Thank you for sharing your first impressions definitely helpful. Apple Pumpkin Pie, Cherry Crumble and Banana Pumpkin Muffin are my top picks right now! I am usually not a huge fan of cherry but after watching this I want to give it a try!

[@MrKongsMom]

Tara, try this cherry.... it's incredible! Not medicinal at all! THis is "cherry" done right.

[@snackpack113]

Hi! I'm new to your channel. I do not like summer either & seem to like the same scents. I would like all of these scents except the Bourbon Bonfire & I would have to try a waxmelt in the Vineyard Harvest. All the new wax melts are sold out right now. I could open up a store with their candles..lol. In my last two orders of paraffin candles, they all came perfect in 90 degree weather. Thanks for your detailed reviews!😁

[@MrKongsMom]

Thank you so so much for being here!

[@smileshan1000]

Do you know once items sell out in a launch like this, specifically the wax melts, how soon they replenish? Thank you! Shannon

[@MrKongsMom]

Not sure of exact restock times but hopefully soon. Since this is just the start of Fall they will be replenishing anything selling out hopefully rather quickly

[@terrys_smell_goods]

I sure hope so. I feel like some of the new soy spring candles weren’t really replenished - at least it seems like the large Cosmic Cupcakes and Coconut + Blueberry Tart candles have been out of stock like forever! 😢

[@susanl.5226]

Hi Melanie! Oh so fun to watch. Is the cherry candle reminding you of BBW "Cranberry Pumpkin"? I still have a couple of those left. Just pulled to sniff. Luv! Mine are from 2015, but they smell soo close to Homeworx Harvest Leaves! (which should be in the Hall of Fame!) If the Cherry candle is in either neighborhood, I'll love it. Ordering some full-size, but others in daylights to test. Thanks for the video. Happy Weekend! ;-))

[@MrKongsMom]

YES! Yes that's it! Cranberry Pumpkin. I have one upstairs and I compared them and they are so very close!

[@terrys_smell_goods]

I have never experienced that BBW candle but I freaking love Homeworx Harvest Leaves. One of my faves.

[@bookaddict8574]

Nice cold sniff impressions! I ordered the wax melts for 9 out of 12 of the fall scents. It is 115 degrees here today, so I will definitely be waiting until maybe mid August or September to purchase the candles. That’ll give me plenty of time to try out the wax melts and see what I think.

[@MrKongsMom]

Yes! We have so much time coming up with all these scents! The Fall just "arrived" so we have months and months of it to come!

[@deliciouscolours]

Speaking of old school Yankee Candle, what would you recomend similar to tarte tatin? I miss that one so much!

[@MrKongsMom]

Oh I wish I had something just like it... I have not found anything. But this year I am finally going to burn my last two back ups of the tart tatin. I will be on the hunt tho!

[@deliciouscolours]

@@MrKongsMom I live in France, at the time I was new to candle collections and I thought they would always have it...😥 I could have easily stocked up but I didn't! I don't know why they don't release it again, everyone loved it, it was such a major hit! Anyway, enjoy your last ones. 😉❤️

[@elizabethsscenesscents]

Ohhh-Leaves meets Autumn… that sounds like the perfect scent!!! Does that come in a wax melt???

[@MrKongsMom]

Yes! All scents are available in wax melts. Some may be sold out since they were such a good deal when everything launched. I am burning leaf peeper today and I am honestly absolutely in love!

[@elizabethsscenesscents]

@@MrKongsMom thank u!!

[@betsybabf748]

My Sunday morning...Woke to all fire alarms going off, which would not stop. No fire. No smoke. Firefighters think a bug must have walked into one. It freaked me out so much I forgot to put on pants, realizing I was talking to firefighters in a Guns & Roses t-shirt and panties, going into another panic. FML on this heavy rain Sunday morning that was suppose to be relaxing. 😰😰😳😳 I am interested in Leaf Peepers, but does it have that fermented apple note that is in BBW Leaves? I love Autumn but that note in Leaves smells rancid to me.

[@tammytolbert5499]

Don’t you just LOVE Fall/Winter!!!! Stop It!!! ❤😂

🤣 Kringle really knocked it out of the gourmand park here!

[@candlereviewsbydina9744]

Do they ever have coupons promo codes or sales I looked and they are very expensive

[@MrKongsMom]

Of course! I always list the sales and discount codes in my weekly home fragrance roundup videos. Sometimes you can combine ambassador codes with certain sales. Sometimes they just have great sale prices that don't allow for combining. The quality of Kringle is unmatched with their soy formula. Much more expensive wax but worth it. They NEVER soot. They NEVER have wick issues.

Melanie isn’t that Chocolate & Churro great, to me it’s a super authentic Mexican chocolate, with the spices. Brings back memories. I grew on that chocolate Abuelita

[@MrKongsMom]

Its absolutely fantastic! I too love Mexican hot chocolate. While I did not grow up with an Abuelita (I had an Oma) my best friend Kate did introduce me to Mexican hot chocolate in college. Holy moley was that a delicious hot chocolate game changer! So yummy!

[@wendyroberts2893]

Yes it’s super delicious, but that chocolate is called Chocolate Abuelita 😂, so that’s what you drank in that hot chocolate My Abuelita lived in Mexico we would go once a year

[@retaillove3062]

Can u do a burn review of the chocolate and churro one 👀 thanks

[@MrKongsMom]

Sure thing! I am loving it! The spice is just right!

[@taylornation320]

Idk why Kringle keeps overloading us with the scent notes. Everyone finds it annoying i think. They always throw random scents in there for marketings sake that i dont think are even there. Why do they keep doing it?? Heliotrope in the cinnamon buns? Wood in the pumpkin waffles? WHAT?

[@MrKongsMom]

I do wish they were a bit more pure in their descriptions. BUT I also know that sometimes they do blend a number of scents together to create another scent if that makes sense. And sometimes certain scents are just in the very background, but I just don't think most people experience their home fragrance in that way. Most aren't looking for exotic notes. Personally I find their little stories before the scent notes to be almost more indicative of how the candle smells. I don't pick up all the of the nuances myself most of the time. But the end result is usually a pretty great smelling candle. I'm sure they will play with things.

[@ReillyWilde]

Melted the Candied Orange melts today… I’m getting a play dough note.🫠 You’re right about a powdered note, which does throw it off to my nose. If you would like some melts, I’ll send the rest to you. 🍊🍫

[@MrKongsMom]

Interesting! No play dough in the candle but I am sure getting the powdered note. Almost like a huge bucket powdered sugar fell into the chocolate as it was being made lol!
