This is the information the people need! Thank you for such a concise and informative video. It will help me greatly when considering my next candle purchases. Keep up the great work Drew!
I used to go into to Yankee Candle weekly. I told the manager over and over again that the candles used to throw well. I told her that Yankee used to be special because it was an event going into the store. She poo pooed me and that store is now closed. I LOVED Yankee and they just nose dived when they sold to a big company. I don't want my Yankee candle from a department store. Oh well.
Thanks for sharing! I agree the Capri Blue doesn't melt completely. That said, I got the Woodwick FireSide (the tall hourglass one) and it melted very evenly all the way down with no tunneling so I would give it a try. Throw was strong as well.
Glad i watched this i was planning to order woodwick in US to be shipped to ph. Yeah you used to love woodwick 😔I found out about woodwicks through your channel. Appreciate this review Drew. Love from 🇵🇭
Great review and ty for being honest. Candies are expensive and we want performance. The blue Java banana smells good, I’ll look at discount stores and make melts if I find it.
I tried Otherland, never again. Their candles tunnel so I don't even want to buy them anymore. I also think they put 90% of their budget into the packaging, the actual candle itself is either boring or outright badly formulated scent that is unpleasant. I study fragrance chemistry and their Canopy scent was probably the worst, most bland scent ever, but also kind of nauseatingly sweet. It makes total sense that they buy off the shelf fragrance formulations, because they do smell extremely generic for anyone who's been into candle or soap design for a while. Lazy, and I won't reward laziness in formulation. I also cannot believe they don't even provide a lid for a $36 matte glass jar (also, who told them matte white was a good idea?! Good luck keeping that nice for any length of time.)
I was SO EXCITED to get 4 new WoodWick candles! I thought I was doing the right thing and buying through their online store...through Yankee. I've never been so deterred from online shopping - they forgot to pack an item...and also, one of the ellipse candles' wicks is literally on the side of the wax...WTF???
Omg! Drew! I love that volcano scent but I agree 100% on the burning and I’m sad about their response. And I was wondering about the Woodwick candles - I had 2 kids back to back and stopped with candles for a few years and just came back to Woodwick and noticed their shortcomings right away! I tried Root Candles based on your recommendations and am super happy with them! Thank you for doing this video. And I love the nailssssss! ❤️
Well, I just bought an Onyx Evening and it doesn’t perform 🤣 Just like you said, just a tiny blue flame…I hope it depends on scent, because my new Coconut island candle smells like they used to. But Onyx evening is junk.
I haven't had much luck with bath and body works in the last two years. The quality has really gone down and just don't last like they used to. I've switched to goosecreek candles and I've never been happier. They are economical, last forever (2 wick jars), and have so many scents. I will agree with Capri blue, they suck, no throwing power reminds me of the ones you get at the dollar tree.
I just discovered goose creek and wow am I impressed!! Burning my first candle from them now it’s Carmel apple lane!! I have two more huge orders coming in so happy!!
I like WoodWick, however l get the little crackle ones that are a little bigger than tealights. They preform ridiculously well and can burn all night. Bc they are wood wick the burn time is extremely long, so they can last a week more if you don't burn them all night like l do. The smell is also awesome. The only thing l dont like is l can only find the small ones at Walmart, and not all of them carry.
The Capri Blue is a complete disappointment. I unfortunately bought the colossal size of this candle and it’s almost $200 😩 I bought it twice because I wanted to give them another chance but it’s not me the consumer, it is definitely them! Customer service is not nice and I know how to burn a candles. From BBW to Byredo. Great review! Thank you, Drew!
Lol, loved it Drew. Guess what, I've been watching you since you're 11. OG. Haha this 42 year old now mom just thinks you're awesome. I remember all those CBV reviews. They may not burn the cleanest and definitely stock fragrances but I have had some of them 10+years and still strong. Would love to hear your recommendations on what brands to look for at TJmaxx or other outlet places. That's my life these days. Stay strong, young man!
I am almost 42 and have also been watching Drew since the beginning. Before I started watching I could not have cared less about candles. Haven't thought about CBV for a long time!! Drew, what happened to all of your old videos?
Hi I love your video, I wanted to ask if you have any videos about candles you like and recomend. And maybe tips. I wanted to buy a present for my mom and some friends, And I thought that woodwick was a cool concept. But first I wanted to buy some small samples to see if they smell nice, before I commit to a large candle 😅 So I ordered a few ones from Yankee and woodwick. But I have no idea on anything else, but I'd love to learn more. And you have a nice way of talking about the topic.
I got my first wood wick candle last year aaaand it was a little underwhelming. I loved the fragrance and got a small one on sale. But the wick was underwhelming. I burned it on my nightstand so I cant say if it had good throw (dont think so) but I think I maybe got halfway through it and lost interest. Did not spark joy lol.
Yankee has gone WAY downhill over the years. I used to love them back in the 90s and 2000s and would buy them constantly, but ever since the 2010s, something has changed. They have NO throw and they burn horribly now! I have no idea what they have changed in the past 6-7 years, but they are definitely not the same company that they once were. I've tried multiple scents and haven't been able to smell any of them. I contacted Yankee's customer service, who was totally useless and provided no answers whatsoever. They just send that same crap about "how to properly burn a candle." Now, I buy the Goose Creek brand. They smell AMAZING and their prices are very low, more than half as much as what Yankee charges!
Totally agree and I wish I has seen this before I purchased my first candle from Anthro. this year. I burned my new candle overnight the first use and it never burned to the sides. I tried everything, including cutting down the wick etc.., In fact it smelled great before burning but had no throw while burning, all I smell is a burning smell from the wick.
1st time here. Thanks for the reviews and heads-up on these candle brands. I am trying Prosper and Bloom no throw (probably 1 or 2), Kirkwood Wild and Amber no throw (probably 2) and Huntington Home from Aldi strong throw ( probably 9 to 10). Thanks for the tips.🙂
I feel like Capri Blue is overhyped on its throwing power. My 8 oz Nest candle throws better. I did try to fit a yankee candle topper on top of the Capri Blue opening and it didn’t exactly fit but it made it pooled out. The volcano scent has a very unique scent though and BBW sun washed citrus may be close but not exactly like it.
I love Lower Lodge candles. They manufacture Jo Malone’s candles (the brand I’m so lucky to work for) and they’re amazing at what they do. The same glass as Jo Malone’s candles, the same quality but at a more affordable price! I mainly buy Jo Malone, Diptyque, and Cire Trudon.
Thanks Tyler! I'll have to check them out! I'm a Diptique & Jo Malone addict but now I have grandbabies to spend my 'fun money' on so I'd love to find a less expensive addiction! haha
so glad I saw this before I ordered otherland based off your first review of them so wondering if the quality changed or what? hadn't heard about them till today just started watching reviews when I saw yours .
Totally agree with Capri blue and woodwick. Yankee has also gone way downhill. Will never purchase them again. Their loss as I buy about 700 candles a year. Thank god for Harry Slatkin!
I recently bought an otherland candle and had pretty good luck with it. Strong scent. Only problem was the price and burn time. Too expensive for the size.
I'm so glad I watched this because I fell in love with the pine woodwick candle in the store but they were way to pricey imo. Now i'm so glad I didn't buy it 😂
Back in the day Yankee Candle used to be the bomb. A marble wax two wick tumbler couldn’t be out performed! I’ve got a Natures Paintbrush going now I’m going to miss tremendously...
You forgot to post the pics in with the video, which was kind of a bummer. I do agree with what you said about WoodWick though. Yankee did ruin them after the purchase.
@@dsyauch u should look into it...since a was a child, its been part of my life;)!!but now scentsy is taking alot of my space hahahahah...love my wax😊💜
My Yankee candle Candle's tunnel also, they pool at 1st but before it reaches a full pull about 30 mins in my flames start to get very small about an hour later it's practically no flame , I do everything to fix the wick and it fizzles out to no flame but a dud every time within 30 mins - hour every time
I agree with you on the Capri blue HOWEVER, their fir and firewood candle is my favorite Christmas scent and it’s just amazing even tho they’re kinda terrible
If you have left over wax melt the rest out with boiling water and make them into wax melts. That's what I do. I even mix scents. Such as sweet coconut and italian limon. Smells amazing in a melt. And I will never waste product again. You can even get good quality wicks in bulk, repour in your favourite old candle wax in old candle glasses and then have a whole new candle. No more waste.
I purchased the beautiful pink OTHERLAND Georgette Magnolia Amber Vegan Candle a few days ago and it smelled like nothing. No throw or scent at all. It smelled like hot wax! What a waste. 🙄😒 I'm sticking to Overose, at least I know the smell will pack a punch.
Thanks for affirming that Yankee doesn't throw scent... I got a cheaper Chesapeake candle from target that fills my entire downstairs yet I can't smell a whiff of midsummer night in a tiny bathroom unless I hover above it. What a disappointment... At least it was 40% off on Amazon. BBW candles are amazingly strong but so expensive unless they're on sale and inconvenient to get if you don't have a store with pickup. But now I'd rather just get a candle I can actually smell. My absolute favorite is teakwood. Wish I could smell it all the time. Have a plugin for it too. Amazing scent. Now if only I could find a potent midsummer item. Only one I've had is the cardboard (paperboard, hanging) car freshener. The plastic jar one sucks and has barely any throw just like the candle. Unfortunate indeed.
I have been told that Yankee has the most amount of soot. Recently I read that they have changed hands although I am not sure if that is true. I know everyone has been complaining in most recent years that they are being stingy with the essential oils so many have very poor throws if any…blehhh
i AGREE on the Woodwick. Gimmicky!!! I bought one they are beautiful-and like you said-they don't burn. I could NEVER get that silly wick to stay lit. Waste of money.
Ik this is old but WoodWick is easily one of the best candles out there imo. I started using them in 2016 (not sure when Yankee Candle bought them) but I still use them til this day and the wicks are great, never ever have gone out on me, I get an even melt throughout the surface of the candle (no tunneling) BUT yes the flame does get very small at times but the smell is still great and strong with every candle type. Not sure where your getting your WoodWick Candles from
so funny because i bought the capri blue and thought i did something wrong because it has the worst tunneling. tried the foil and oven tricks and nothing worked lol so thank u
My capri blue candle lives in a tin foil sweater. It has to. Only way it will burn across. I haven't tried the others, and you've convinced me I shouldn't.
Okay Yesss wood wick used to be so amazing and their scents were so strong. I got the old wood wick from a homegoods and it was my favorite candle ever and it’s gone!! 😫😫😫
nahhhhhhhh - I have had mostly good results with capris blue candles. You're right that the big ones sometimes tunnel irreparably, but more than half the time they work. The smaller tinned candles and the even smaller glass mini candles have always burned well IME (this is over 10+ years of burning them). Avoid the size you're holding (and larger, of course), all will be fine. Yankee candle is freaking nasty. They always seem to give me an itchy nose and possible headache. No thanks.
Have you bought one recently? Like in the past 3-4 months? The WoodWicks have definitely gone down hill, and the pillar style is on-exultant in terms of scent. I just bought one yesterday. It’s really disappointing. I loved WoodWick candles.
Well, I wish I would have seen your report months ago, but it completely explains why the last two ww candles I bought are trash. I LOVED ww. No more. They self-extinguish!! So so sad!!
I could not agree with this more!! Woodwick candles used to be my FAVE!!!!!!! I have not truly smelled them in years….not because I have not purchased them, but because you can’t smell a single thing when burning them! They have no throw & the wicks are GARBAGE!!!! Absolute garbage! My last ellipse is completely full & the wick sunk to the very bottom. Literally a complete waste.
This is the information the people need! Thank you for such a concise and informative video. It will help me greatly when considering my next candle purchases. Keep up the great work Drew!
A cultured man of candles as well I see.
The legend Reviewbruh!!

Namaste! Fascinating review. I had no idea I was burning candles wrong..or..that they burn wrong... I'm enthralled in this fascinating candle world.
My woodwick candles have actually never disappointed me
Woodwick are great. They smell fsntastic and their scent is sooo strong. I love them.
I’m so glad they work for you!

Support small business instead! 1820 House ♥️
@@dsyauch thank you. Do u have a video on the best candle companies?
😂 I really like this! Big brands sometimes really don’t make their candles as they should… so glad I started my own candle business
Loving this video!! I will be avoiding these brands! Is there a brand that you recommend that does the wooden wicks? Thanks Drew!
Honestly, none that I know of. They are all so hit or miss.

I love seeing your sass!! ♥️ Tell em babe!
Thanks for keeping it real Drew!!
This was great! I’d love to see more of what NOT to buy! “Who spends all day in their bathroom?” Hahahaha

I plan on doing my favorite Holiday candles soon and I can do a TJ Maxx video too!
I am almost 42 and have also been watching Drew since the beginning. Before I started watching I could not have cared less about candles.
Haven't thought about CBV for a long time!! Drew, what happened to all of your old videos?
Very lucky man to get behind that
Hi
I love your video,

I wanted to buy a present for my mom and some friends,
And I thought that woodwick was a cool concept. But first I wanted to buy some small samples to see if they smell nice, before I commit to a large candle 😅

I have never had a yankee candle that I’ve been happy with.
Please ask why
Same! I have people who rave about Yankee and I don't understand why!

They are totally not worth it. If you love the scent, check out Sunwashed citrus from Bath and Body Works!

I was actually minutes away from ordering that exact woodwick candle 😂 thank god for this video before I did that!

so glad I saw this before I ordered otherland based off your first review of them so wondering if the quality changed or what? hadn't heard about them till today just started watching reviews when I saw yours .
Totally not worth it, they are an awful company run by not so kind people either.
What do you think of the crazy strong candle brand? I'm looking for a candle with a strong throw.
Candles by Victoria, the strongest candles I’ve ever ordered!
Oils you save the jar by using a candle lamp with the Capri ? I would be annoyed if I purchased a candle that wouldn’t burn correctly.
*can
Thanks Drew!
This is the very first time I'm watching your content, I just love your personality. You even made me laugh
Awww shucks thank you so much!
Totally agree with Capri blue and woodwick. Yankee has also gone way downhill. Will never purchase them again. Their loss as I buy about 700 candles a year. Thank god for Harry Slatkin!
Yes, the wax is super bad! But they have an essential oil in the Volcano / Capri scent. That would be my suggestion if you love the scent.
i'm here 2 years late but you saved me from the long term temptation of buying from capri blue and otherland, and thank you for that
Drew, can you do an update on this subject? Can you give Woodwick a second chance?
I have. They still perform the same for me.
What about putting the Capri Blue on a candle warmer?
Most of their vessels are too large for one, but you could make wax melts out of it!
I’m new to the candle game. Are Yankee candles bad?
Eh, not good. 😂
I recently bought an otherland candle and had pretty good luck with it. Strong scent. Only problem was the price and burn time. Too expensive for the size.
Not worth it, haha.
Great video. Have you purchased any candles from the eternal flame ? I'm having issues with their customer service 😐
Never heard of them.
Thank You!
Can you suggest a soy or coconut wax blend candle company?
Sassy Girl Aroma does incredible candles and Kringle!
Thank you very helpful
Have you done a video of top 3-5 brands?
No, but I will add it to my list!
Best review ever!
I thought maybe my volcano candle was defective or that I burned it wrong because it was mess! I'm so glad it wasn't just me.
Not just you, Capri Blue candles suck lol
I'm so glad I watched this because I fell in love with the pine woodwick candle in the store but they were way to pricey imo. Now i'm so glad I didn't buy it 😂
You can not use coupons on them either, they are “luxury”. LOL

Damn it! I just bought a wood wick candle and started burning it. Not sure I didn’t research before buying 🤦🏻♀️
I agree completely. I've wasted so much money on Capri Blue over the years, just praying to get that one that doesn't tunnel. Never happened
Same here. I finally just put mine on a warmer. Not buying anymore!
My Yankee candle Candle's tunnel also, they pool at 1st but before it reaches a full pull about 30 mins in my flames start to get very small about an hour later it's practically no flame , I do everything to fix the wick and it fizzles out to no flame but a dud every time within 30 mins - hour every time
Have you ever tried Candle Lite candles?
No.
Have you ever tried Candleberry candles? They have some fall scents out now. Also, Magic candles has some good Halloween scents.
OMG I just returned my Capri Blue volcano candle last week! Such a disappointment, burn was horrible and no throw at all!
Right?! So sad that they don’t perform.

so funny because i bought the capri blue and thought i did something wrong because it has the worst tunneling. tried the foil and oven tricks and nothing worked lol so thank u
It is junk.
I used to LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the wood wick candles! They were THE BEST!
You need to add DW Home Candles to this list. Absolutely terrible throw, lots of mushrooming problems, and tunneling.
I wish I had read this comment sooner 😭 never again DW home, never again!
Yep the throw and the tunneling absolutely terrible!
I have a love/hate relationship with DW. I've got some REALLY good ones and some drowning ones with no throw
I see Woodwick in alot of discount stores. A few of the scents are good.
My capri blue candle lives in a tin foil sweater. It has to. Only way it will burn across. I haven't tried the others, and you've convinced me I shouldn't.
Literally turning my boat woodwick into wax melts rn lol
Omgosh Thanks for the yankee bought woodwick info. 🤯
Gingerjune has a volcano scent it’s amazing!
I’ll check it out.
Okay Yesss wood wick used to be so amazing and their scents were so strong. I got the old wood wick from a homegoods and it was my favorite candle ever and it’s gone!! 😫😫😫
Hi I loved this video. Would I be able to send you a candle and tell me what you think please?
Send me a message on IG! (: @dsyauch
What is pulling out in candle terms?
Pooling out means the wax becomes liquid. You want a deep liquid pool for it to burn evenly.
@@dsyauch thank you!
ok since i found you i feel so much better ab my candle addiction and less alone!🤣💘💘
Yasss girl, it’s only an addiction if it’s bad for you. 😉
I am sad about Woodwick. They were great. Gave as gifts. So sad.
If they don't perform I melt them down and pour the wax into molds for wax melts.
nahhhhhhhh - I have had mostly good results with capris blue candles. You're right that the big ones sometimes tunnel irreparably, but more than half the time they work. The smaller tinned candles and the even smaller glass mini candles have always burned well IME (this is over 10+ years of burning them). Avoid the size you're holding (and larger, of course), all will be fine.
Yankee candle is freaking nasty. They always seem to give me an itchy nose and possible headache. No thanks.
Can you do Goose Creek review?
I have never tried them, but I’ll add them to my list! (:
What???? I never have issues with the elipse jars, they always are crazy strong and burn perfectly
Same here! I love woodwick candles not just because of the crackling sounds but also because of the strong lightning and the gentle smell.
Have you bought one recently? Like in the past 3-4 months? The WoodWicks have definitely gone down hill, and the pillar style is on-exultant in terms of scent. I just bought one yesterday. It’s really disappointing. I loved WoodWick candles.
I love the candle selection at Marshall’s. I think they have the best candles.
Yep! What happened to Woodwick? Yankee Candle is what happened to Woodwick.
Well, I wish I would have seen your report months ago, but it completely explains why the last two ww candles I bought are trash. I LOVED ww. No more. They self-extinguish!! So so sad!!
Literally trash.
great video
I agree woodwick isn’t good. The candles are unscented
It is sad about Woodwick 😔
I hate Capri blue too 🤣 one of the few candles I threw out after it didn't burn right. I dont even think it smells that good.
All of my woodwicks just smoked up badly.
I could not agree with this more!! Woodwick candles used to be my FAVE!!!!!!! I have not truly smelled them in years….not because I have not purchased them, but because you can’t smell a single thing when burning them! They have no throw & the wicks are GARBAGE!!!! Absolute garbage! My last ellipse is completely full & the wick sunk to the very bottom. Literally a complete waste.
Bath and Body works have the best candles, and House of Intuition
