Bath & Body Works: White Barn - Marshmellow Fireside.

Another candle post today. If you haven't guessed already they are my new favourite thing at the moment!
 The reason for these sorts of posts is that we're currently redecorating our living room (post to come) and I've suddenly got all into my home decorations!
Today's post is White Barn's Marshmellow Fireside which you can purchase in Bath & Body Works. My lovely boyfriend's Nan very kindly bought this back from me on her recent trip to New York.
I've heard such good things about this one and 'Leaves' (which was no longer available - i think it only comes out in Autumn) & when she asked me if there was anything in particular that I wanted from there I jumped at the chance of owning one of these!

I've seen reviews that this brand is slightly less powerful in scent then Slatkin & co (also sold at BBW) but to be honest i wasn't left disappointed with this one. 
It has the perfect amount of scent, noticeable but not overpowering.
Marshmellow Fireside is descibed as toasted marshmellow, vanilla cream and smoldering wood. I wholeheartedly agree with this description - The vanilla & marshmellows is present to satisfy my sweet tooth but the rich 'woody' smell stops this candle from being too sickly.
One thing that I would add is that I can't express how much better this smells once lit and once blown out the smell really does linger for ages.

I wish they would have Bath & Bodyworks in England!

  2. I LOVE the Leaves candle! They are still on the shelves where I live. It smells amazing, like apple cider and leaves...perfect fall scent.
    Thanks for sharing this post! Definitely going to give this candle a try now.

    1. I'm so jealous! I really wanted to get my hands on it! I live in the UK so can only get them if one of my friends/family goes over there. I looked on ebay but they're so expensive! :( xx
