First impression of Marshmallow Fireside:
I can’t believe it’s taking me so long to review Marshmallow Fireside from Bath & Body Works. This candle smells so yummy, like sweet and gooey marshmallows with the perfect touch of campfire smoke. It always amazes me how these candle companies can create such realistic scents in wax and this one truly blew me away.
Here is the scent description for Marshmallow Fireside:
Toasted Marshmallow, Smoldering Woods, Fire Roasted Vanilla, Crystalized Amber.
Mmmm!! Smelling the wax, this candle smelled like toasted marshmallow, vanilla and moldering woods. If amber comes through, I’ll be in heaven. Love, LOVE this scent so far. Now let’s see how it holds up once burning.
Let’s get to it!
I lit this candle in my master bedroom and waited for the marshmallow magic to begin. Twenty minutes in and my bedroom smelled like sweet marshmallows and wood smoke, with the wood smoke stood out the most in this fragrance. Every time I walked into my bedroom, the aroma surrounded me and it was strong. It truly smelled like I was roasting marshmallows on a stick. I could clearly smell that gooey and hot marshmallow sugar blended with the campfire smoke. The amber never materialized for me and I’m sure the vanilla was there as well but it was blended too well to really notice. Loved this scent!!
Strength for Marshmallow Fireside – I would rate this candle a 10 out of 10 in any size room. It was a room filler for sure. This single candle fragranced my huge bedroom, open bathroom and even spilled into my great room. Basically it scented the entire upper level of my home.
How did my Marshmallow Fireside candle burn?
This candle burned perfect. Zero wick issues. YES!! I even had to trim the wicks a couple of times, a rarity for this brand. Clean burning from beginning to end.
Closing to my review:
Loved Marshmallow Fireside and definitely recommend it to all you candle lovers out there who love sweet marshmallow scents. The added woodsmoke element to this scent made it even better. I’m definitely purchasing this candle again.
Don’t see this candle listed in Bath & Body Works website? Try one of their stores which tends to carry all their current scents vs. online.
Happy candle hunting!
