Bath & Body Works New Market Fresh Candles

I love love love (most) of these new Market Fresh Candles by Bath and Body Works. I stopped in a few weeks ago when they had their buy $20 worth of product and get a fresh Market Fresh Peach candle and bag. I fell in love and bought just about all of them in the 3-wick size. The cashier was super sweet and told me to do separate transactions so I could get multiple free candles.

Without further ado...



Since these guys are pretty expensive in the 3-wick if you don't get a good sale (and because alot of the winter fragrance candles I had lots of issues with the wicks getting covered with the wax) lets do "The Good, The Bad, The Ugly"

The Good:

The best smelling candles are Strawberry, Pear and Lemon Mint Leaf. The first two smell just like they are supposed to...smells like a farmers market on an early summer morning! The last one listed, the Lemon Mint Leaf...that's a whole new fragrance all together! I really love it, but some may find it a bit medicinal. It smells alot like lemon and something else...I wouldn't call it mint though...I think they are off base with the name...but it's really unique! All three of these candles I have burned in my house and as always they fill the entire house with their awesome smell!

The Market Peach and Pineapple Mango are also really sweet smelling...but I feel like Bath and Body Works always hits the mark with those two fragrances and they release them very often.

The First Bloom and the Garden Bouquet both smell like a lovely flower shop. I opted to go with the First Bloom because I thought the container was prettier (since I reuse mine to store things in).

And lastly, the Lilac Blossom smells A.M.A.Z.I.N.G! Light it and your whole house will smell like you have rows and rows of lilac bushes outside your windows!

The Bad:

I can only think of one...if you or someone you live with is easily given headaches by strong smelling flowers I would stay away from the First Bloom, Garden Bouquet and Lilac Blossom. For some reason they can trigger headaches of allergy season proportions for some people. =(

The Ugly:

Zip! Nothing...nada!
