Hats Off to the Repackage Committee!!! Your efforts are noted and appreciated!!! #bbwexposed

[@alisonhurt2274]

Thank You So Much 💓

[@The_scentedlife]

Great live the other night! Dark Amber & Oud/Vintage 🤯🤦🏻‍♀️ No wonder I love both! Anyway, I shared on my insta back in Aug when I realized the “new” Walk In The Forest sw had the exact same scent notes as White Eucalyptus & Sage. ILNs don’t match since it’s a phytogaia vs a standard 3 wick but obviously with the scent notes being the same they weren’t trying to hide it to much. Another one I posted recently as being a repackage is the “new” Café In Venice sw, it’s a repackage of the Cinnamon Spiced Vanilla & Paris Café blend 3 wick that was out for summer sas! Again different ilns bc of colored wax but scent notes are identical.

[@drawnhere]

Thank for this !!! 😊

[@jennifermarie1230]

I AM THE VP OF THE REPACKAGE COMMITTEE!! KENT THIS VIDEO!!! YESSSS 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

[@lavender_coffee]

Thank you! Finally, proof that their scent notes are often fiction as well, yet people will swear they smell the different notes in each. People underestimate the suggestive power of words, packaging, and marketing. I feel like this is a deceptive practice, but there’s obviously no laws against it. I guess protecting consumers from candle repacks isn’t a high priority 😂. I wonder if the same method can be applied to body care scents to identify repacks, although they are usually more obvious.

[@Anna-gy7dv]

The nose knows -- thank you so much for this, Kent! I have some health issues and therefore still wear a mask when I shop in-store. This will prevent me from accidentally repeat-buying scents!

[@runswithrats]

I can’t believe I missed the meeting! I love this so much! This only confirms that I didn’t need all of the candles I thought i did!I bet BABW is scrambling to try to figure out a way to shut this down! Lol

[@Anna-gy7dv]

Seriously -- I was thinking watching this that I wonder if they'll take that ingredient lookup system off their site after this. Either way this is awesome, so glad to have the info after years of being gaslit by sales associates who have to tell me something's not a repackage.

[@jools8088]

Wow!!! This amazing. You cracked the code 😊. No more wasted funds on repacks and now i can indeed hoard repacks of previous favorites. I wonder if birchwood trail (green package this fall) was actually vanilla birch as many figured out - i bet those ILN numbers match.

[@TheCandleChannel]

Yea! So we actually checked all those candles in that highly-repackaged Birchwood Trail collection but none of them turned up to be a match in the database. We suspect that because those 4 candles were made with "Phytogaia" fragrance technology, that it somehow modifies the fragrance formula therefore assigning it a new ILN that doesn't match with its previous repackage.

[@jools8088]

@@TheCandleChannel ah, got it!

[@Anna-gy7dv]

@@jools8088 I am a diehard Vanilla Birch lover and you cannot tell me they aren't the same! Smelling side-by-side, if there is a difference it's so minimal -- either way it's the same woodsy, sweet cologny goodness.

[@charliegirl2468]

Yes! I didn't buy Birchwood Trail since it seemed to be a lighter dupe of Vanilla Birch

[@arili7126]

This shows how easily people (including myself!) can be influenced to think they’re smelling something different just by them changing the adjectives on the scent notes or the name of the scent. For instance I love Rainforest Gardenia but I’m not crazy about White Gardenia. Same with Limoncello and Sugared Lemon Zest. I’m not a fan of SLZ but love Limoncello 🤣 I’m glad you did this video!

[@ashleys_space]

I’m not convinced. Things can have the same notes and less or more of an Ingrid and it makes it smells different. I have many of these and they smell different. This comment isn’t against you or any one in person in any way… just saying.

[@sniffawhiff6915]

I had SLZ and Lemoncello side by side and couldn't smell a difference.

[@arili7126]

@@ashleys_space no offense taken! But yeah we’ll never know for absolute certain without B&BW admitting it. I understand what you mean because it’s something about certain formulas I enjoy more than others, like in the cases of RG vs WG and Limoncello vs SLZ for instance. Even having the info about the ILNs being the same, I still wouldn’t buy the ones I didn’t like because to my nose they just don’t smell the same! Still good info to have if you’re wanting a certain scent they’re not currently making. You could then try the other just to see. Edit: certain *scents (not formulas, oops)

[@arili7126]

@@sniffawhiff6915 I wish I could say the same because I would love a Limoncello right now and would take SLZ if it smelled the same to me. Limoncello smells like a sweet lemon candy to me, but SLZ smells like really sour lemons and makes my nose hurt! 😩

[@ashleys_space]

@@arili7126 right. Just because the ILN’s are the same could just mean they pay less to reuse the same codes.

New to your channel. Gotta say that I'm glad that I make my own candles. Haven't bought a BBW candle in so many years. But as a maker it gives me confirmation that I'm doing just fine.

[@taylornation320]

I love this video! This is exciting to finally have this validation. I realized quickly the champagne cupcake candle is just sprinkled birthday cake and was upset! 🤦🏻‍♀️ but omg I'm dying about the hometown cookies iln.. this is so funny. I hated hometown sugar cookies so much and I bought twas the night before Christmas cause I loved the room spray. But when I burned the candle I hated it and I started realizing it had that same weird burnt plasticy smell that hometown had. I'm so sad!

I've caught a few deceptions over the years (the Perfect Christmas, for example). It is very disappointing and I wish they wouldn't do that.

Haha! I just got to the part of the video where you talked about sparkling icicles

[@TheCandleChannel]

I didn't mention it in the video, but the men's Freshwater fragrance is also extremely similar to Sparkling Icicles! I believe both are dupes of the Acqua di Gio fragrance. Freshwater was an online exclusive 3-wick at one point this year, but doesn't seem to be available anymore :(

36 candles and I think I had a different scents total all the others had a exact copy in a different package. I did check before I bought them and some that were duos had different scent notes. Or they left one or two out on the scent notes. So that's why I ordered I thought I was getting variety on scents for the fall season. And I got copies instead.

I have another one, Vanilla Birch=Birch trails something, but they smell the same

[@Anna-gy7dv]

Yes! Birchwood Trail was developed using Phytogaia though, which is a different technology than how they develop most of their candles, so the numbers wouldn't match. But I've smelled side-by-side and they are either the same or extremely close.

Glacier lagoon = Deep Blue Sea 🌊 aka the Irish spring candies 😁

[@Anna-gy7dv]

Fascinating -- I passed on Deep Blue Sea but stocked up on Glacier Lagoon!

[@kananbeanandme146]

@@Anna-gy7dv I just purchased Glacier Mist which is similar to Deep Blue Sea and the B&B associate confirmed glacier mist is actually Glacier Lagoon but they are similar 🙊

I had Paris cafe and Campsite coffee at the same time and at first I thought they were the same, but side by side they were not. Campsite coffee is a little deeper in coffee and I prefer it and wish they’d bring it back.
