CHESAPEAKE BAY CANDLE MINIMALIST COLLECTION

Oznell — Sun, 06 Jun 2021 01:01:13 GMT

This line was new to me. It's available through Amazon, Target, Walmart. I found it in Walmart, @ $12. 92 for the largest jar. I've tried the "Rosewood Fig", which is rather subtle, but to me a definitely-noticeable-while- burning, very pleasant, light, summery smell. Includes essential oils of mandarin, sweet orange, fig leaves, rosewood, among others. It's a "soy blend", so not totally soy.

Love the packaging and all the colors! The containers are elegant, and have a velvety soft, matte texture. The smaller jar has ribbing all around, and the larger one has just one "ridge".

The Forest Honey I would get next-- it smells just like honey! But more complex, with grapefruit, honey, pine needles, cypress.

This candle assortment is definitely worth a look! I am a Target shopper so that is where I will go . The aromas sound pleasing and the containers are pretty. Thanks for the post!!! This will be my first visit to Target since before the pandemic!!!!!!

Wow, @spiderw , so glad for you! I'm sure it will be huge fun to be out and about at Target, taking in all the new things. 'Recreational shopping and looking', even if we never purchase, is one of the great pleasures, as we know...

@Oznell, Thank you for this tip. I try to burn soy candles, as they don’t irritate DH’s nasal issues.

This looks like such an interesting line to try. And at a reasonable price. Thank you!

I love shopping at Target. It is “dangerous” to my spending, with all their offerings. Go in for a few greeting cards, and go out many $$ later.

Oh, my pleasure, @PamfromCT . I try to find mostly soy also and don't burn many scented candles any more anyway, but every once in awhile it's fun to indulge, especially with scents I haven't tried before.... This one was light enough not to be 'overwhelming'.

Oh, how well I know, @PamfromCT -- esp. with their Threshold and Studio McGee lines, I am very vulnerable!

I saw these candles in Walmart about a week ago. I had one in my hand and decided to put it back...now I am sorry I did that.

I hope they are still available..I will look this week.

Thanks for the tip!

Ha, I did the same thing the first time I saw them, @DREAMON -- sort of fingered them, and put them back! I tend to dither over stuff like candles....

@OznellThe large size candle in these two fragrances is $9.99 at my local Walmart. I ordered both. See what you made me do! Lol

Hey, great bargain score, @SunValley ! My Walmart never seems to have good deals like that.

Well, I had to go back and get "Forest Honey", the one in the wide green jar. It is lush, yet light, while burning, with unmistakable honey notes. I like it the best of the two I've tried so far.

A surprise bonus---the matte, sage-y green jar coordinates with a small pitcher I have, my little piece of green Wedgwood jasperware! Whoever designed those cool, opaque container jars with their chalky colors, was clever.
