Real Talk About Bath and Body Works Candles

My bf is sick (hopefully not with the flu) so while I was out getting him some stuff to get better, I peeked in a nearby BBW to sniff some post-SAS spring newness . So without further ado, let's start at the top and werk our our down thru all of the NEW things that are currently in stores Pomelo Citron (7334M8A1) - straightup Capri Citron without a doubt Coconut Colada (7348K3A1) - I was really really hoping this would be the now forgotten Bahama Fizz  but no such luck..though on the plus side, it's totally new.  So you get a creamy blend of coconut and banana equally followed by a tiny hint of cinnamon sugar spice.
