Crème Caramel Bath & Body Works Candle Review
By Christina Rylan
Brand: Bath & Body Works
Type: 14.5oz large 3 wick candle
Fragrance: Crème Caramel
Scent Strength: Medium
First impression of Crème Caramel:
Crème Caramel smelled pretty darn yummy and I’m so glad I purchased one to review. The moment I popped off the lid, a sweet and sugary caramel aroma wafted all around me… and it was very sugary sweet.
Here is the scent description from the bottom of the candle:
Butter caramel, powdered sugar, vanilla.
Buttery caramel – check! Powdered sugar – check! Vanilla – check! It was ALL there and it smelled beyond decedent. A scent you could easily become addicted to if you love sweet caramel scents. That me!! I was already in love and I haven’t even lit the wicks yet.
Which happens right now. 🙂
I went big and lit this candle in my master bedroom to start out. It’s a huge room and a nice size to gauge the strength of these large candles. If it can fill that large of space, it’s a winner. Once the wicks were lit, it took the average 15 minutes to reach a full melt pool and from then on out… a really sweet caramel aroma filled my bedroom and yes, I could even smell the powdered sugar in the mix as well. It was a perfect balance of all three elements… caramel, vanilla and powdered sugar. Super yummy!
Strength – I would rate this candle a 7/8 out of 10 in a really large room. 10 in medium to smaller rooms so great scent throw.
How did my candle burn?
This candle burned perfect. Zero wick issues. Clean burning from start to finish.
Closing to my review:
I really enjoyed Crème Caramel, it was sugary sweet and different enough to stand out. I wouldn’t say it was the best caramel scent I’ve ever tried but I still really liked it and do recommend it for those who love sweet and sugary confection type scents. So should you run across this one at a Bath & Body Works store, 
smell the wax and see for yourself. You may walk away with one.
Just an FYI… I currently don’t see this scent listed on Bath & Body Works website right now so try one of their stores which tends to carry way more scents than online. It wasn’t that long ago that I purchased this scent.
Happy candle hunting!

Hello, for me this is the best caramel scent from bath and body works, but you stated that for you is not the best, can you tell me which is the best caramel scent from B &BW that you’ve tried? Thank you and best regards!
