NEWNESS UPDATE: More Winter 2017 Candles *UPDATED

-
You thought BBW was done with winter? Nope, think again!

As this fall was a huge epic colossal fail and utter shitshow to end all shitshows, BBW is focusing all of their time, energy, and "creativity" in winter to make up for it. That said, despite all of the hoopla, the upcoming influx of winter scents aren't very exciting

So first it looks like the Camp Winter collection are getting some add-ons, a Camp Winter 2.0. These candles have wood grain tumblers. Scents include...
  • Cinnamon & Clove Buds
  • Marshmallow Fireside
  • Snowflakes & Citrus (aka Midnight Blue Citrus)
And there appear to be 3 "new" new scents as well

Patchouli - Patchouli and Cedarwood (straightup patchouli from what I've heard)

Coconut Snowflakes - Cooling Peppermint, Fresh Spearmint, Coconut Water (this sounds suspiciously like Fresh Mint & Coconut)

 Winter Sage - Clary Sage and Juniper Essential Oil (I'm hoping this is Snowed In but it could also be Holly Wreath)

White Woods - Oak, Cashmere, Vanilla (I wonder if this is based off of the Winter White Woods soap)
Next, the WB Core collection will getting some fancier add-ons with both marble tumblers and chrome tumblers with sparkly, glittery marble lids. Scents include
  • Frosted Cranberry (chrome)
  • Evergreen (chrome)
  • Mahogany Balsam (marble)
  • Salted Caramel (chrome)
  • Bourbon Butterscotch
  • Black Tie 
  • Rosewater & Ivy (marble) DAFUQ?!
  • Bergamot Waters (chrome) again, DAFUQ?!

New scents include...

Peppered Suede - Black Peppercorn, Amberwood, Lavender (Autumn Night/Cardamom & Suede? Autumn Woods? Villa Bergamot/Bergamot Woods/Bergamot & Suede?)

 Smoked Birch - Silver Birch, Sweet Incense, Haitian Vetiver, Smoked Incense (...yeah, I got nuthin) 

Star Anise (marble) - Star Anise, Licorice Root, Brown Sugar, Smoked Firewood (BLEGGHHHH)

Capri Citron (marble) - Sorrento Lemons, Citron, Agave Nectar (word on the street this isn't Limoncello and is actually new)

Vanilla Spiced Pear (chrome) - Bartlett Pears, White Rum, Fresh Cinnamon (new but similar to Brandied Pear from 2012)
As always, we're getting a glitter holiday/New Year's collection..quite possible to the most boring and blandest one to date. Scents include..

The Unholy Trinity - Vanilla Bean Noel, Twisted Peppermint and Winter Candy Apple
Tis the Season
Cinnamon Caramel Swirl
Champagne Toast

This collection will be getting 2 new but familiar scents...

White Mint Latte - Fresh Peppermint, White Chocolate, Whipped Milk (the consensus is that this is new but similar to Mint Mocha Bark )

Blueberry Sugar - Sweet Blueberries, Brown Sugar, Graham Cracker Crust (updated repackage with a twist of Blueberry Twist)


Finally, we're getting another Mrs Meyer's-esque mason jar collection, cuz BBW is obsessed with mason jar candles lately. This collection has an alcohol/cocktail theme (YASS BITCH!)

Gin & Tonic - Juniper Essential Oil (YASS, my go to drink. So supposedly this smells like Grapefruit Gin Fizz without the Grapefruit. I'm really hoping this isn't that god awful Sparkling Limeade)

 Elderflower  Martini - Lavandin Essential Oil (it's been said that this is new but I wonder if this is Sugarberry Spritzer)

 Orange Bitters & Bourbon - Orange Essential Oil (besides Bowties & Bourbon, I'm too sure what else this could be...though I've heard that out of the 3, this smelled the worst. We shall see)

      It's just a guess/theory at this point

      I can't find the notes for it anywhere. Everyone I've talked to haven't seen it and the few who have are being tight-lipped. So we shall see

    I understand why they put out a traditions line every year. I really do. i even like that they are called what they have always been called. However this renaming of scents makes me crazy. Why? If I loved Autumn nights then I would be so happy to see it out again. Calling it something else would mean I may miss it.

MY LAST POST: End of an Era

-
Have you ever looked back at something in your life that you were once passionate about and/or obsessed with and over time, you found yourself not feeling the same way anymore? Perhaps sort of going thru the motions with it or just completely over it but not ready to admit it? That's how I feel about B&BW...more to the point, that's how I feel about talking about B&BW as a reviewer. I've mentioned before that I stopped posting regularly on IG. During last year's lockdown, I would pop my head in with a post or a story just to keep in touch a bit and show I was alive...only to see my post not get as much attention as they used to as well as also watching one follower after the next unfollow me. Apparently if you're not churning out daily content, folks can't be bothered with you, regardless of what's going on in your life. At the start of 2020, I had a little over 6000 followers (even that annoyed me as there were accounts who started later than me and

CANDLE RETROSPECTIVE: Brozeblogger's Top 20 Candles OF ALL TIME

-
Well dear readers, today's New Year's Eve - we're almost at the finish line and soon we'll be able to wave goodbye and not so fond farewell to the dumpster fire that was 2020. Normally, as per my own tradition, in honor of New Year's I would write a retrospective look back on the past year and list what I thought were the best new scents that were released. Obviously I couldn't do that this year - with the pandemic, I've been avoiding stores thus couldn't do my usual WALK N SNIFFs nor did I particularly buy very much as I'm not about that shipping/handling plus tax life. But as this this New Years hits a bit differently than past ones and is the beginning of a new decade, I thought I do something different. I thought I'd do a real retrospective and look back at some of my favorite scents spanning from my time as a review and as Bronzeblogger - some from now till back in 2013 when I started this blog. I'm gonna avoid seasonal rideordie loves l

NEWNESS UPDATE: Spring 2021 Candles

-
 Well we made it to 2021! I personally feel like the new year started last week on January 20th; the world got a little less crazy and I feel like I can breath again. No, things are certainly not ideal and nowhere near back to the normal but it's slowly getting there. I hadn't had much to say on here lately. I didn't engage in any SAS shenanigans for obvious reasons. Besides a few wf bulbs during the most recent sale, I haven't really bought anything. I've kinda just been laying low and slimming down my collection as I'm not about the collecting/stocking up life anymore; either burning things or giving and/or selling them away. Occasionally I peep my head into social media to see what's poppin and what newness (that I won't get to see or smell for myself to review) is heading our way. I debated whether or not it was worth posting a newness update; after putting it off and hemmingandhawwing, I decided I might as well. So here we are. So as you may (or may
