Bath & Body Works: Vanilla Fireside Candle




Cozy ambience, flickering fire, smokey vanilla woods.
This candle is a dream. I purchased this last year but it just got lit the other night. This gorgeous pool of wax was created after about 40 minutes. The throw was stellar and the scent divine. Bath and Body Works may be reeling me in once more with their home fragrance. What are your favorite Bath and Body Works scents? Candles? Items?

  1. I was just on their website tonight salivating over all the fall scents ---don't tell you know who ;)
    I'm glad you enjoyed Vanilla Firewood! Sometimes I have a hard time with B&BW's smoky scents (the bonfire ones specifically)

    1. They have some great ones coming out! Candle burning season is upon us! The fireside ones are very potent. Definitely best for larger spaces for me. I can see how they could be difficult for some.

    2. *ahem*
      Salivating is fine. Even sniffing in the store is fine. It's the actual premature burning of fall scents that one needs to worry about.

  2. Ooh, I like smokey scents too. Last year I had sandalwood soap that made my bedroom smell like a campfire, it was comforting. I was surprised...usually sandalwood has a nondescript dirt-like scent, in my experience.

    1. Mmmm... Smokey! I love it in perfumes too. Sandalwood is a favorite of mine too. Sandalwood can be anywhere from vanillic to woodsy. But smokey sandalwood?! Yum!

  3. I really liked Summertime S'mores from last year and was bummed that they didn't bring it out again this year. I have to look for Vanilla Firewood!

    1. Hi Kate! Summertime S'Mores sounds delicious. I don't think I have smelled it before. Is it similar to Marshmallow Fireside? Did it have chocolate in it? Hopefully BBW will cycle it back in. I want to sniff it now! :-)

    2. Very similar to MF but a little less sweet and a little smokier. Sometimes I get a hint of chocolate, but I could be imagining it :D My last 3 wick is almost gone and I only have a small one left. So sad!

    3. Ooooo... Sounds cozy! Inhale a few times for me! Meanwhile I will keep my eyes peeled for stragglers.

    1. It is good! It is down to an inch of wax left to burn. I will miss it when it's gone. Do you have a favorite fall candle scent you like to have on hand?
