Introduction to My White Barn Candle Review...
Here I am once again with a new White Barn review. I'm really beginning to like these candles now that I've finally started burning them. Thankfully, I've caught some killer sales making it easy on my pocket book to purchase any. That was my biggest pet peeve with this candle line, price. They're just so expensive compared to other companies online so I've always passed on buying any. Not anymore because I think Bath & Body Works has finally wizened up and started offering decent sales a few times a year.
White Barn has two lines that I know of. Their True Essence line which are their traditional fragrances you can purchase in their soaps and lotions etc. or their True Temptations line. I've tried both and like both so it's a tough call deciding on which one I like the best. The True Temptations line is centered more towards foods and bakery and boy are they wonderful. Today I'm reviewing Fresh Baked Cookie and it's definitely a keeper folks. If you like sweet and warm cookie scents, you would like this one.

| What Does My Fresh Baked Cookie Candle Look Like?
I purchased the smallest candle in their True Temptations line which is 4 ounces. The candle is a round glass jar with a flat shiny chrome lid. The look is very modern and sleek. The label on the face of the candle can be removed which says, "True Temptations, Fresh Baked Cookie."

| How Did My Fresh Baked Cookie Candle Smell?
This was a truly yummy scent and I couldn't believe how strong it was for such a little candle. I lit this puppy in my master bathroom and not long after, the fragrance of fresh baked cookies was all through my bathroom and bedroom. It smelled super doughy & warm which made it smell so incredibly realistic to me. Just like breaking open a warm sugar cookie in half right from the oven. I'm not really a cookie scented person but even this one had me craving the real thing, along with an ice cold glass of milk.
It still amazes me how authentic some of them bakery candles can smell. This candle would have been even better had I burned it in my kitchen but it was too small for that size room. I know a bigger candle would give a much stronger scent throw and would be terrific. My little 4oz candle fragranced my entire bedroom and bathroom which really amazed me. You definitely get your money's worth (on sale that is). All in all, I liked this candle and will definitely buy this scent again if given the chance.

| How Did My Fresh Baked Cookie Candle Burn?
This candle actually burned okay. I sound surprised huh? That's because the last True Temptations candles I burned didn't start out the greatest. This candle was single wicked because it was small but the flame stayed nice and strong and the wax melted completely to the edge. No soot or smoke.

Closing Comments:
I enjoyed this fragrance. It smelled very real, and you know when that happens because you're tempted to actually eat the candle. Next time I'm at Bath & Body Works and they're having a sale, I'm buying a bigger jar to burn it in my kitchen. It'll smell really yummy there!
In closing, I do recommend this one so if you happen to see this candle in a Bath & Body Works store, pop open the lid and take a whiff... I think any cookie fans out there may have a hard time resisting it just like I did.
