If you giggled a little at the title don't feel bad, I still snigger at the term ear muffs.
One day I will grow up but today is not that day my friends! Last year I bought Bomb Cosmetics Chilly Willy Candle and burnt it almost nightly from the first day I got it. This is somewhat unheard of for me as I have a vast candle collection and tend to dip in and out of scents. Again somewhat out of the blue is me repurchasing a candle - I really have to love the scent and I guess to a degree miss not having it to burn. Stupid I know. As soon as November approached I logged onto the Bomb Cosmetic site, clicked purchase (along with a few other treats because y'know I'm good to myself like that) and have snuggled up to the beautiful scent almost nightly in the last week or so.
Yes the title "Chilly Willy" is slightly cheeky but in fun, tongue firmly in cheek sense. The candle is not only beautifully presented but it has a wonderfully warming scent too. Bomb Cosmetics Chilly Willy somehow manages to encapsulate the fragrance and essence of that moment when you step through the front door at home after being out in the cold. Warm, comforting and inviting with a slight chill factor all at once, this is created using a blend of fruity,
fresh apple crunch with a spicy hint of ginger and black pepper. It is one of those scents you have to experience yourself to fully understand. Although it does contain a few spice based notes it is not over powering, festive is a better way to describe such additions. Over all it has a mainly sweet fragrance, that reminds me a little of Christmas cake and festive mince pies. I should point out that it is decorated with gold glitter which isn't really translating all that well on camera but in reality it is a rather beautiful candle both in presentation and scent. The good news is that at just £7.99 you don't need to feel bad should you treat yourself. It is taking all my will power not to order the Hot Toddy, Santa's Little Melter and Secret Santa candles. I mean start as you mean to go on, right?

let's be honest the word WILLY is just hilarious!
ReplyDeleteI am in dire need of a new candle (my current candle and sadly my last one smells like a bathroom air freshener) and this one sounds perfect. Chilly Willy is now my new favourite name for a candle.

I'll hold my hands up, I still laugh at the word willy too aha! This candle looks lovely, I may have to try it as an alternative to my beloved Yankee Candles as my addiction is getting costly! x
