Bath and Body Works Candles UK Notino

Forget "Hot Girl Summer" it's about to become "Sweater Weather" and that means it's time to scent every corner of your home with a flickering candle or two. Now like most people of a basic disposition (I wear it as a badge of honour), I am more than partial to a Bath and Body Works Candle or ten. I kid you not, one year I visited the States with my extended family and persuaded each and every member to allow me to stash at least three candles in their suitcases for the journey home. It's a problem what can I say? The good news is that a problem shared is a problem halved and to enable us all in our quest for fragrant perfection, I have found a UK supplier for Bath and Body Works Candles.

Not any old supplier nor a Facebook selling group (which apparently can be brilliant so no shade here) but a fairly big store, that stocks bountiful options both in candle scents and sizes - all of which are delivered within a few days too. I don't know if you are familiar with Notino but it is a somewhat hidden gem that I've quickly become enamoured with due to the range of lesser know and slight more tricky to source brands. I won't pretend that the Bath and Body Works Candles are cheap but realistically without coupons but they work out around £3 more expensive than purchasing from Bath and Body Works - an option most of us don't have.

For my first order and to test the waters, is settled on three large candles, admittedly I was swayed by the packaging more than the scent descriptions but fortunately it all worked out. In my experience as long as you steer away from scents and notes that you know you don't enjoy, it is very hard to go wrong with Bath and Body Works fragrances in general. Safe might not be the most exciting descriptor but it rings true for the vast majority of Bath and Body Works launches and as such it is one of the few companies that I will blind buy from.

So a quick run down of my selections:

Bath and Body Works/ White Barn Banana Cabana (£27.59) - extremely sweet with a slight warmth, the banana note does veer a tad artificial (think of those banana foam sweets) but is somewhat saved by the addition of vanilla. Not my favourite fragrance but pleasant enough nonetheless.

Bath and Body Works Garden Greenery (£27.59) - initially this was my wild card, I don't typically purchase "green" fragrances and yet this has quickly become my new favourite. It's floral yet flushed with green notes of basil and mint, beautifully coupled with a hint of apricot. It somehow manages to be fresh, fruity and botanical, all wrapped in easily one of the most beautiful candle jars around.

Bath and Body Works Georgia Peach (£27.59) - a cult favourite and for good reason. I've bought this ripe and juicy scented candle several times over the years and never bore of eye delicate yet bright peach fragrance. Again the packaging is divine and definitely a great choice for all that like fruity concoctions to brighten up dull and rainy days.

I hope this helps tide everyone over until Bath and Body Works see sense and finally open a few stores in the U.K. I'm already planning my festive order.
