My Experience
I always buy bath and body works candles on sale and that’s when I feel it is worth purchasing as these babies cost a lot on full MRP. Coming to the packaging the candle comes in textured black glass jar with a decorative black lid along with a sophisticated brand logo and name of the candle on it. Definitely has man vibe aesthetics to it as it is from the men’s collection.
The fragrance is exactly how it sounds just like a cologne, similar to mahagony teakwood. It’s masculine with woody and musky vibes. Some sage and sandalwood hints blended with a slight sweetness(tonka bean) to it. The candle even sounds pretty sexy but the scent is soft. What I mean by soft is that it’s not potent like the white barn candles by bath and body works. This candle has to work its way up to fill the room and so you can say it’s mild. The other white barn candles that I used to burn would be intense and the room smells so good. That does mean I am mad at the black tie candle but I wish it were a little more intense.
When I was randomly watching some influencer showing her shopping haul which included the bath and body works candles, she said the same and I kept wondering why this one is mild in terms scents. Apparently the white barn candles are more stronger and may be a slight difference probably in the formulation.
Coming to price, as usual these are quite expensive in India with taxes so I urge you to buy on good sale periods. Have you tried this candle, let me know 😊
