Re: Empties - V2

@itsfi Fantastic progress for the month of March! The peach black tea candle sounds sweet and refreshing (why am I suddenly craving iced tea? Lol). I have similar feelings about the Hourglass. It would tend to clump my lashes together sometimes. I never ended up having the patience to figure it out. One day I will have to try the Gucci spray!

Re: Empties - V2

@itsfi  fantastic job, and lovely aesthetic photos, as always! Those candles all sound wonderful! I am just lately trying to venture into the world of scented candles. Other than those you mention here, do you have any particular favorites you would recommend? I don't really know what I like yet when it comes to candles, so I am open to pretty much anything.

Re: Empties - V2

@itsfi  thanks so much for the recommendations! I am in the US, and I was actually eyeing that Voluspa set - I do love a mini sampler set 😉 so I might have to pull the trigger on that one. I will definitely check out the other brands you mentioned!

Re: Empties - V2

That Voluspa mini votive set at Kohl's is a nice one @caitbird! I had one a few years ago and thought it was a great way to try out the brand and their different scents. The containers are very pretty too and can be reused for any number of things. I will keep my eyes open for your future candle hauls; love seeing what people are picking up. It'll be great to see what notes you  gravitate towards.

Re: Empties - V2

Ooooh, getting into candles will be fun @caitbird! Brand-wise, in addition to these, I like Diptyque, Byredo, Nest, which I saw in your hauls post 😍, Homesick, Lafco, L'or de Seraphine, Anecdote.

 

Every year, there's a Sephora Favorites Mini Candle Sampler Set and that's a great way to try out different candles from different brands. My recollection is that the set includes a voucher that applies the price of the sampler set to a full size of any of the candles or brands in the set. 

 

Diptyque releases its city candle collection once a year online (and in stores). Usually, the candles are only available in the city that they represent (New York candle only available at Diptqyue NY stores, London candle in the London boutiques), but once a year, Diptyque makes them available online and in all their boutiques. The collection has typically been releaed in April but this year, they've pushed the release to June. 

 

I'm sorry, I can't recall if you are in the US or Canada. If you are in the US, Sephora at Kohl's has a Voluspa mini candle set on sale online - this is a great way to expllore the brand's different scents.The cnadles in the set are tiny but it's a good sampler set.

Re: Empties - V2

Awesome job @itsfi ! I always love your pictures, too.

Re: Empties - V2

@makeitup305, thank you. It's nice to work through good items.

Re: Empties - V2

@itsfi  I loved seeing your emoji key🥰.  Your home must have a wonderful scent.  Great job on all of those candles 🕯️.  And great job overall, especially on the reviews 🥰

Re: Empties - V2

Thank you @Cissy63; very kind of you to say. There were a lot of well loved empties.

Re: Empties - V2

@itsfi  I also forgot to mention how amazing Peach tea candle is! It smells soooo yummy! Almost as good as the pineapple cilantro 🌿 one! 

Re: Empties - V2

Just now seeing these post; sorry for the delay @ather @missjeanie. Trader Joe's has really done a stellar job with their candles over the years. If my memory is on point, the throw on their candles is great whether lit or cold. Sure, the strength of some scents may not be as strong as others (their rose one is very strong), but they're usually strong enough that they can fill a room when lit. 

Re: Empties - V2

@itsfi  The throw on the TJ candles are great!! And scent combos are incredible too!

Re: Empties - V2

@ather Oh my... Pineapple Cilantro... loving the sound of that one!  Trader Joes candles for the win!

Re: Empties - V2

@itsfi  Wow!! Amazing job!!! So many 🐐 and 💖! I love seeing all the favs!! Great job on the candles too!! 

Re: Empties - V2

@itsfi I just love your rating system!  I had to zoom in and save a screen shot of the Beloved Peach Prosecco and Mimosa Flower candle.  It sounds so yummy.  I didn't even know this brand made candles and now I have to make sure to give some sniffs next time I'm in a store!

Re: Empties - V2

Thank you @missjeanie. Gotta say, putting together that emoji key rating system was one of the most fun things I’ve done this year. 🥰

 

I wish I had picked up more of the peach Prosecco and mimosa flower candle. Next time, definitely next time. Will keep my eye out for it this year.

Re: Empties - V2

Fantastic job 🙌 @itsfi 

Re: Empties - V2

@lmaster, thank you. Lots of skincare and candles empties.

Re: Empties - V2

@itsfi that is a a lot empties, great job

Re: Empties - V2

@CorgiMommy, thank you. There’s usually a few months here and there where my candle empties are larger than usual, like March. 

Re: Empties - V2

I always love seeing all of your candles, @itsfi.  You end up with some that sound so lovely!
