Holiday Haul |Bath & BodyWorks

Holiday fever has hit me…hard.
I look forward to the holidays every year and get anxious after halloween for December 1st to start the festive decorations.
This year I caved, I was wondering the mall as one would trying to stay on task with blinders on. The sweet smell of amazingness caught my sense of smell trying to lure my sight upward. There it was in the window of Bath & BodyWorks “3 for $33.50”
3 three wick candles for basically the price of one! No way!
I couldn’t resist. Blinders off and original task forgotten I went in and started to smell EVERYTHING. I smelt all the new holiday scents and reminiscing about the memories made with the scents I got last year.

After way too long smelling everything I ended up with these three candles plus an extra 5$ bonus.

	WINTER This scent was a repurchase from last year. I think this candle should fall into the classic category in their holiday collection. I was so happy to see it again this year. Imagine taking a stroll on a nice beautiful sunny crisp winter day. The sun shining and reflecting off the crystallized frost that had formed on the ground. Take a deep breath…THAT is what winter smells like to me. In all seriousness I hate the cold and being cold so this is truly my way of experiencing winter minus the frigidness
‘TIS THE SEASON According to B&BW this candle has a strong, spicy cinnamon scent with Apple Cider and a touch of pine. I do not smell the pine so much but I do smell the apple cider. Im not the hugest fan of the sweet sugary smells but this is just sweet enough not to give you a headache but sends you off to reminisce about all the holidays before. Not my favourite of the three I bought but its nice on the nostrils.
	SPARKLING ICICLESThis is not a scent I usually go for. It’s quite masculine but I thought my partner would appreciate it. According to the B&BW website this scent is ‘A sparkling blend of citrus bouquet, bergamot and a touch of holiday moss’. In Simply Sarah terms, It smells like man… NOT a post gym man but the good smelling well put togther man (to be clear.)

Last but not least, these cute antibacterial hand gels for 5$. The scents come off strong but a lot better than the nostril stinging alcohol smell from the generic kinds.
