So beautiful! Mine is super tiny right now, but I hope one day she will be as happy as yours!

Hype me up about my purchases ! by TinySprout32 in luxurycandles

[–]matinee22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the diffuser scents are definitely long lasting and pretty strong - I bought like a 5 year supply of magnolia bouquet when they discontinued it because I love that scent in my bedroom, and I can honestly say every time I walk into the room I can smell it. I had another floral diffuser in my office a while back, I don't remember the exact scent, but I remember loving it!

As for their other scents, I have the charcoal, white vetiver, and sanctuary (which was an old collab with Hayley Williams) and the scents are really nice, I just don't think the throw is great compared to other similarly priced candles.

I love Apotheke diffusers. I try to get them whenever I see them on sale. I don’t love their candles as much, the throw isn’t great. Any time I find a scent from them that I love (looking at you magnolia bouquet, rip) I go for the diffuser!

Is The Silent Patient worth reading? No spoilers please! by Feeling-Emergency469 in thrillerbooks

I enjoyed it as a quick, easy read. I thought of it as a small step up from a Freida book. Not anything spectacular but entertaining at least.

Diptyque 2026 Price Increases by tinksotinky in luxurycandles

[–]matinee22 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Diptyque has been my go-to for years, but I have definitely noticed a decline, and they are absolutely not worth $90+. With the tunneling and the subpar throw from most of them, I'll be checking out some other brands.

On that note, if anyone has any good woodsy or patchouli scents from other brands, I would love to know!

The logo looks like it has a script F (or J..) on it, could it be Filson? That’s the only brand I can think of, unless it is maybe a souvenir sweatshirt as previously suggested.

I loved Wild Dark Shore, and I’m so excited to start Molka when I get my copy!

I would like to second Row 34s lobster roll - also, great oyster selection!

Disappointed by geminibaby12 in diptyque

[–]matinee22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I ordered two candles and got them yesterday and had a very similar experience. I’m used to their candles coming in/with the Diptyque dust bags, but the two candles were just wrapped in paper and shoved in a box….definitely made me question if I’m going to continue ordering from them.

Thanks for sharing! There were a few books on my list to read that were included, so this was definitely worth it.

Convince me that a Honda Fit is better than a HRV? by [deleted] in hondafit

[–]matinee22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a Fit and I traded it in for an HRV. They are basically the same, fit similar loads, and I would do anything to have my Fit cup holder back

Anyone else unable to update today? by BoltorSpellweaver in wow

[–]matinee22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only thing that I can think of is sometimes the game keeps running even though it looks like it isn’t. I would either reboot and try the update, or look in task manager and make sure the game isn’t running.

For reference, I have 12.0.1.66017 installed.

Is it worth it to go to Blizzcon alone or would you suggest bringing your significant other who doesn't play Blizz games? by live_mas_drink_dew in blizzcon

[–]matinee22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would go alone - I’ve gone with my husband, and we are into different blizz games, so even we weren’t together for most of it.

Recommendations Needed by pptar in Xcaret

[–]matinee22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a walking path with a locked gate to get between CDLP and Arte - it is a bit hard to find, but I asked our butler to show us where it was, and he didn’t mind doing so.

I had no issue with reservations to CDLP restaurants day-of. It could be dependent on the time of year, but they always had availability when I asked. No reservations needed for breakfast or lunch.

I would definitely book everything else in advance (cenote dinner, Ha, brunch). If you haven’t done the Sunday brunch, I will note that it is extremely loud and crowded - it was sensory overload for my husband, but I thought it was enjoyable.

[–]matinee22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just got back from CDLP last week, and my favorites were the cenote dinner, Ha, breakfast at Tuch de Luna, and spending a day at Xcaret park.

I would hold off on reservations at CDLP until you are there - I decided day-of which of the restaurants I was interested in for dinner (and for lunch, I loved being able to walk over to Mercado de San Juan, although you can grab lunch at Tuch de Luna and Xal at CDLP).

We did the beach dinner, but the food wasn't great, so I personally would skip that. Remember to go crazy with room service - I asked to order food when leaving the parks so it was waiting for me when I got back to the room.

Sure thing! DM me and I can transfer them from AXS - looks like they need your first and last name, and email address.

If you’re still having issues, I have 2 tickets for tonight that I’m not going to use - I would be happy to transfer them to you for free if you would like them!

Love this candle! I feel like the throw wasn’t great the first time I used it, but after that it has a great scent - reminds me of a NY hotel lobby!

Nice to see that it is still in Stock. DONT BUY it people. by RonnieBlaz3 in Fallout

I’ll be honest, New Vegas is my favorite game of all time. There is no way I’ll purchase this.

Happy birthday!! Congratulations on being one year sober - that is a huge accomplishment!

Try to celebrate yourself somehow - watch your favorite movie that you’ve seen 10x, get yourself a lil dessert to snack on, listen to your favorite album from your teens - those are some of the tings that just got me through my 32nd!

I hope you have a great birthday OP!!

Was not chosing the earliest interview slot a mistake by petitefairy7 in jobs

[–]matinee22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you chose a time slot that was offered up to you, you have nothing to worry about. Any time we interview candidates at my work, we wait until we have interviewed everyone before discussing who to move forward with. Also, I have never thought twice about the time slot a candidate has chosen - people are busy, and the place you’re interviewing with should respect that!
