We love candles, especially the highly-fragrant Bath & Body Works candles! They smell great and can make every room in your entire house smell like you live in the popular candle store.

My sidekick Michelle recently visited her local Bath & Body Works to do a sniff test on their new summer candle scents to see which ones she loved and didn’t love (yep, she smelled EVERY single jar! 🙃).

Here are our TOP 5 favorite summer scents…

Bath & Body Works Barcelona Sun-Washed Citrus candle

1. Barcelona Sun-Washed Citrus

“I was so excited to find this scent as it smells super similar to my favorite Capri Blue Volcano candle from Anthropologie. It’s a light citrus scent that smells so yummy!”


Bath & Body Works Pineapple Mango candle

2. Pineapple Mango

“This is a super strong scent and reminds me of Tiger’s Blood Snow Cones. It’s the perfect background scent for summer.”


Bath & Body Works Cactus Blossom candle

3. Cactus Blossom

“This candle has a sweet floral scent but it is not overpowering at all and thankfully smells nothing like old lady perfume.”


Bath & Body Works Peach Bellini candle

4. Peach Bellini

“This is the yummiest peach scent I’ve ever smelled and I’m pretty sure it’s what Reese Witherspoon has burning in her home down south!”


Bath & Body Works Summer Boardwalk candle

5. Summer Boardwalk

“This smells like all the good parts of the fair (with none of the bad). Imagine caramel corn, apples and sunshine!”


And Michelle did NOT love this scent…

Bath & Body Works Rome Pizzeria candle

1. Rome Pizzeria

“This really does smell like pizza cooking in the oven. I’m not sure what the point of this is. The only reason people like the scent of pizza is because they get to eat the pizza afterwards!”

    I got the Boardwalk one at the winter SAS. This time I got Love You, Oceanside Garden and Banana Cabana.
