    Smells amazing, purchased yearly, throws well, smells like expensive hotel or perfume

    Pumpkin apple and fresh balsam. Both are candles that I purchase yearly, and both throw amazingly well. To me, Pumpkin apple doesnt smell like a particular season. It just smells good. Like an expensive hotel or perfume. I burn it year round. Fresh Balsam smells clean, so I'll…

    Smells amazing, surprising favorite even for non-banana fans

    Banana Cream Latte surprised the heck out of me. Not even a big banana fan, but this candle smells amazing. The Vanilla Patchouli candle I picked up I think winter SAS this year was just...so sad. I love vanilla, and I love patchouli. The candle smelled like a weird plastic.…

    Go-to fall candle

    Depends on the season. Lol. Kala mo naman. Since fall ngayon, my go-to candle is BBW Pumpkin Pecan Waffles or Marshmallow Fireside. If you have the budget, OP, and you don't mind din, try mo ibagay sa seasons ang scent ng candles mo. Kung summer, try summer scents, ganorn. 😀…

    Strongest B&BW candle ever burned, crazy strong

    I think the strongest B&BW candle I've ever burned was Viva Brazil! I've been burning B&BW forever but that one was crazy strong for me ETA: Evil Queen was pretty disappointing! It's one of my favorite scents but it had no throw for me, even in my bedroom

03FAQ

Product finder FAQ

How does Product Finder rank products?

It searches Reddit for threads about the category, reads the most useful comments, identifies named products, then counts how many collected comments mention each one. The list is sorted by that count.

Is Product Finder free?

Yes. You can run free searches without an account. Repeated searches are cached, so popular categories often return immediately without using another public run.

Why use Reddit for product recommendations?

Reddit threads contain detailed comparisons from people who have tried several options. The useful part is not a single opinion. It is the repeated product names and reasons that appear across many comments.

What does mentions mean?

Mentions is the number of comments in this search that name the product. It is counted from the collected comments in code after extraction, not estimated by the language model.

How do I get every comment behind the ranking?

Open the linked receipts to inspect individual comments. To collect the full conversation and turn it into ad angles, scrape the source threads in Adlicio.
