My Collection: Candles By Victoria


This is my long awaited post, CBV collection. I was addicted to their candles about a year ago, and I could not stop myself from buying. Their candles are hand poured, fresh, strong scented, long lasting and colorful. Besides, there are hundreds of scents to choose from which is good and bad at the same time. When I placed my first order, I was so overwhelmed by all these options. The only downfall is that they are only available online, which makes it difficult to find scents you love.
I am really not good at describing scents, so I decide to copy from candlesbyvictoria.com.
Let’s start with my favorites.
Bath Time With Pooh, Georgia Peach, Indonesian Delight, Rock That Vanilla
Bathtime With Pooh - Crunchy toffee bits with generous drizzles of sweet honey makes this fragrance so delectable and mouthwatering.  In my opinion, it smells like baby powder with honey.
Georgia Peach ~  Like a bite into a ripe, freshly picked peach, fresh and fuzzy on top, with green crisp skin notes, giving way to the sweet juicy fruit and tart red pit at the center.
Indonesian Delight ~ The top note sparkles with crisp dew fruit, mandarin oranges, tangerines and sweet berries. The heart combines a midley of pineapple, mimosa blossoms, peaches, plums, fruity jasmine and soft lavender. The base is a beautiful lily and vanilla.
Rock That Vanilla - Listen up vanilla lovers!! This fragrance is unbelievably good! It's vanilla with a touch of earthiness added for depth.

Tiffany-D, Why I Autumn,  Jacob Black


Why I Autumn ~ An Autumn blend of lemon and apple; followed with middle notes of anise, cinnamon, and ginger; sitting on well-rounded base notes of woods, musk, and vanilla.
Tiffany-D ~ TiffanyD on YouTube inspired me to create this wonderful fragrance. Colored light blue like the infamous Tiffany boxes, a beautiful mix of Watermelon, Honeydew Melon, Cotton Candy .
Jacob Black ~ The ocean mist mingles with the earthy moss covered forest a perfect place for a werewolf to roam. Patchouli, Sandalwood, Evergreen Pine, Ocean and Rain with a hint of musk this scent is one manly werewolf fragrance with a splash of Vanilla.

Some scents I like, but do not love.
Vanilla Bean Noel, Bunny Slope, Sweet Pea
Vanilla Bean Noel ~ Vanilla Bean Noel is a warm blend of fresh vanilla bean, warm caramel and rich, comforting cream.
Bunny Slope ~ Fluffy white clouds of icing decorating the perfect cake! Decadent and delicious pure almond icing.
Sweet Pea ~ A light and refreshing floral with hints of jasmine, violet and Lily Of The Valley set on a velvet musk background. A Bath & Body Works Type.
Lastly, here are my least favorites.

Tokyo Spring, Daisy, Pink Sugar & Coconut, A Bit Of The Bubbly
Tokyo Spring ~ A blend of fresh air notes and a hint of Japanese grapefruit, middle notes of spring melons, rose, lotus blossoms, and lily of the valley all sitting on base notes of bamboo and white musk .
Daisy ~ Daisy fragrance created by Marc Jacobs. Our rendition begins with top notes of tangy lemon and jasmine; followed by middle notes of muguet lily, rose petals, African violet, and daylily; sitting on base notes of cedarwood, patchouli, and musk.
Pink Sugar & Coconut ~ Inspiring blend of the above scent combined with coconut. Just yummy!
A Bit Of The Bubbly? ~ Once you inhale this fragrance you find this is indeed a delightful citrus! Our fragrance captures the essence of wild oranges drenched in rich, heady cognac. This fragrance is seductive it will tempt the inner vixen in all of us.

Overall, I do enjoy their candles. All the candles are of great quality, but I just wish I could smell them before buying.
