Bath & Body Works Fall Hall - August 2018

Leaves, Fresh Balsam, Flannel, Blueberry Maple Pancakes & Owl Pedestal Candle Holder

Bath & Body Works is having a weekend sale on all 3-Wick candles for $12.95 each (retail is $24.95), plus you can use a 20% off coupon (NRS2TW) or a $10 off $30 coupon (SPICEITUP). If you are on their email list you should have received a printable $10 off coupon. I also received several coupons in the US mail. 

I did two store transactions with a $10 coupon which decreased the price of each candle down to only $10.31 after tax. My Bath & Body Works App coupon was rejected by the store manager, but she allowed me to use her coupon. I recommend printing out a coupon or showing your email instead unless your store allows the use of the new app. I found that quite annoying since it was accepted at another store and she was so loud and irritating. I will be going to a different store next time since they have a new manager who is harsh. I also didn't like the way she was treating the new cashier. Normally, my visits to Bath & Body Works are a calming, happy retail therapy experience so she will not be getting my business again. There are six stores close by that I have to choose from, so it's not even inconvenient. 

I purchased the following:

1. Fresh Balsam - woodland balsam, crisp eucalyptus, fir branches, and cedarwood.
2. Leaves - crisp red apple, golden nectar, and warm clove spice
3. Flannel - fresh bergamot, heirloom mahogany, and soft musk
4. Blueberry Maple Pancakes - wild blueberries, griddle fresh pancakes and warm maple syrup
5. Owl Pedestal 3-Wick Candle Holder - white resin with faux rose gold leaf accents

Fresh Balsam, Leaves, and Flannel are returning favorites. I purchase several of Fresh Balsam every winter so that I can burn it throughout the year. It smells just like a Christmas tree. During the long, hot, humid summer this candle transports me to a chilly winter day. It's a delightfully fresh, clean and calming scent. The majority of their candles that I purchase are from their fall and winter collections. Leaves is another one that I love to burn year round and it's an absolute favorite. It's the perfect fall candle that smells like red apples and spices. It is currently offered with three different labels. This is the first time I've purchased Flannel, at Hubby's request. He loves their masculine cologne scented candles. It has a throw of 8 out of 10. Bergamot is the strongest scent followed by musk. He also loves Fresh Balsam, Winter, Evergreen, Mahogany Teakwood, and Leaves, so those are perfect for the men in your life. Blueberry Maple Pancakes is a new scent. The last time I remember them having a blueberry scent was back in 2013 and it was called Blueberry Pumpkin Patch. It smelled like blueberries muffins and it was perfect. This one smells lighter and less sweet. It smells like blueberries in the beginning and then it changes to pancakes with whiffs of maple syrup and blueberry. Its throw is around 6 out of 10, we can't smell it upstairs on the catwalk that goes across our two story living room where the candle is burning. It's not as good as their 2013 creation, but great for those that don't like the sweet scents. It took about an hour for it to be melted across the top so I would recommend burning this one for at least one to two hours before extinguishing it. Hubby gives it 5 out of 5 stars, I give it 3 out of 5 stars. I don't think I'll be purchasing it again. I also wanted to purchase the new scent, Pumpkin Peanut Brittle, but it was sold out. It is still available online. They didn't have many Blueberry Maple Pancakes left. The Owl Pedestal is cute and the flames light up his eyes as you can see in the photo above. I think it would have been even nicer if there was a frosted glass hurricane that sat on it around the candle. It even looks like there is space to place one there, so maybe they planned it and then decided against it due to the price or the possibility of breakage during shipping. Frosted glass candles look best on it, but you can turn the label around for the others so it looks better. They also offer a matching hand soap holder that is the same owl design which is adorable. This design reminds me of crocheted owls in the 70's, so it was hard for me to resist.
