Fall Fall Fall at Bath and Body Works



I wanted to let you know about some Fall scents that are currently for sale at Bath and Body Works!  I purchased these a little while ago, but didn't post anything about them.  I figured I better say something about it soon because Winter/Christmas products will be coming to stores shortly.  Actually at some Bath and Body Works test stores across the country, Christmas items are already being sold.  These retailers do not waste anytime going from Summer to Christmas! 

This purchase consisted of some new Fall scents in soaps, concentrated room sprays, home fragrance oil, pocketbacs and a few Spring/Summer candles.  All of the descriptions below came directly from the Bath and Body Works website.  In the picture above from left to right on the bottom row is:

    I have tried each one of the products purchased.  My favorites of this purchase are the Cranberry Harvest hand soap.  It smells so good.  The pocketbac smells a little strong for my taste, but it is bearable.  The other items I really enjoy are the Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin concentrated room spray and the home fragrance oil.  The Vanilla Buttercream hand soap did not have much of a scent. I could barely smell it, so I decided to exchange them for two more Orchard Walk Foaming Soaps.  The 4oz Root Beer Float candles did not perform well.  They smell good in a small room setting or if it is right next to you.  It was the burn that did not do so well in my book.  It tunneled straight down the middle and never reached the outsides of the candle.  Also, the 3-wick Island Margarita candle was from the Spring line and if you are a fan of Bath and Body Works, then you know what that meant.  Yep, you got it....horrible burn.  The wicks would not stay lit for long.  Eventually, only one wick would stay lit, but just barely.  I will post a pic below.  Needless to say, I returned it and the one I had that I had not burned, yet.  From my understanding and experience, the new Fall scents have wonderful wax pools, nice thick wicks and give off a magnificent throw!  You must go out and buy some Fall 2012 3-wick candles, so you can experience all of the wonderful things about them, too!  Also, while you are out getting your candles, make sure you pick up some of the other Fall products mentioned above because as I stated previously, the Winter/Christmas items will be out on the floor before you know it!
