I love this nutty brittle base with the woody vanilla note and sweet and bright Mac apple notes. Ideal transitional scent that feels fun and nostalgic for end of summer. It truly feels like a fall night at the carnival or pumpkin patch. Great scent throw of 7/10.

This has been a rollercoaster of a candle 😅. The fragrance is a very bright and sweet mango. It’s creamy from the coconut milk, while still being very refreshing. I got a little bit of the strawberry in the base, which was more of a tart fresh strawberry (similar to lunchbox). On first burn the wick on right was sinking into the wax and was extinguishing itself. I guess there was an air pocket in the wax. Once I straightened the wick and let it burn for a while it got back to normal. The second burn it was a powerhouse (9/10) throw. Then the next burn I couldn’t smell it at all. I tried some new spots in subsequent burns and the fragrance output still fluctuated, but it never got back to that powerhouse strength from the second burn. This averages out at a light-medium for me. The fragrance overall is a very pleasant summer scent that accompanies their famous Banana Boat very well.
This is not your typical foodie scent, but does also fall into the sweet category if that makes a lick of sense. It’s sweet like a pumpkin cheesecake. I don’t associate it with pumpkin puree but more so a true pumpkin cream! Think if you took some pumpkin from the can or fresh, and then mixed it with sweet cream (like the brand for your coffee creamer sweet cream, NO COFFEE JUST CREAM) and then mixed in some baked apples. The cashmere just gives it a warm cozy vibe and cuts the foods and cream. This candle is EXCEPTIONAL. A solid 8-9 scent throw with standard open concept (1400 sqft lower level) it is a must have for me every single year.

This is a lovely take on fall spices blended with autumnal fruits. I get the bite of the strong clove mixed with the wood first. Then it’s sweetened by the simmering cranberry with a little apple and a touch of orange zest. This will take you from early fall all the way through to the holiday season, since it’s so versatile. It’s burning beautifully as always and the strength and throw lean medium-high. I personally am waiting to try Hocus Pocus since I know it’s similar with the addition of a beautiful mahogany note! I am enjoying this one and it’s making me so much more excited to get my hands on some new fall candles!
Great new scent. Has to definitely be a new fan favorite. Great atart for fall scents.
