I totally prefer the Wallflower, and it also depends on the scent in it. The SCENTPORTS were totally unsatisfactory, they put out very little fragrance and were costlier since they were Slatkin.

wallflowers are ideal for smaller areas like a bathroom or a bedroom or closet, scentports are idealistic for larger areas, because they diffuse more fragrance than wallflowers do.

I have used wallflowers for years and find that it works very well as far as scent diffusion. I found that Scentport was more awkward to use.

I prefer the Wallflowers as well.

I thought the Creamy Caramel was strong in the Scentport but now I have the Pumpkin and I can hardly smell it. I prefer the wallflowers . I use them in several rooms and use it with the oil warmers to add a srtonger release of the fragrance I am using in the wallflowers unit at that time. The Scentport and the wallflowers don't last as long as they say though. I am lucky to get 4 weeks out of mine.Hope this helps.

I agree with the reviews that say it depends on the scent you're using. I've had great luck with the Scentport using the Mandarin/Lime scent (my fave) but I recently purchased the Cinnamon Stick and Cinnamon/Clove scents and they don't seem to work at all. I thought my Scentport might be broken, so I bought a new one, but still no luck. The cinnamon fragrances work very well with the Wallflowers, though. Go figure?

The Scentport is made for the Slatkin Co., it's stronger in fragrance, and is sposed to last 4-6 weeks. The Wallflower is made by the White Barn Candle Co., it's weaker and is sposed to last 6-8 weeks.
You will notice though that Slatkin does make fragrances for the Wallflower but White Barn does not have fragrance bulbs that fit in the Scentport so you will not find fragrances such as Sweet Pea, Moonlight Path and so forth that will go into you Scentport. So the Scentport has fewer fragrances to choose from whereas the Wallflower has both companies frangrances to choose from.
I personally love the Scentport, I find it to be stronger and better to scent large spaces. I also like the smaller simpler design.

I have both and I think it depends on the fragrance. Scentport does get warmer so I think that's why it may seem to smell a bit more potent. But I had black amethyst (wall flower) in my living room and it fragranced all the way to my kitchen and dining area. Now I have apple Scentport behind my dinner table. It fragrances all the way to my front door. Like some have stated previously- it depends on the fragrance.

Scentports are stronger and in my opinion much better than wallflowers. The scent is stronger and with mine both last the same amount of time but i can barely smell the wallflowers. And it is true that some scents are just stronger thanothers.

Wallflowers typically tend to go on sale more frequently and they also tend to last a while longer than the Scentports do, despite the package estimate of 4-6 weeks plus. The Wallflowers also tend to burn less hot, while the Scentports get much warmer.
The Scentport is advertised to be twice as strong as the Wallflower, and for most fragrances, this is the case. Some fragrances in both Wallflower and Scentport are very 'quiet': they don't smell very strong.
I recommend Scentports for the large areas of the house, and Wallflowers for the smaller bedrooms or bathrooms.
I have also had some issues with my Scentports burning out excessively fast, releasing a burned oil smell, and having the oil turn a deep caramel color and coagulate. My theory is that if your outlet voltage runs higher than normal, it causes this.

Like everyone else said, i have also found scentports to be stronger. i like to constantly smell my favorite fragrance and not just when i walk into the room. however in a bathroom or small room wallflowers are sufficient and not over powering. i also have to switch to wallflowers during the holidays since there are no winter scentports :( maybe next year?!

Scentports are better for a larger room because they release more fragrance than a wallflower. However, wallflowers last longer.

The Wallflowers last longer, but the Scentports put out more smell. I prefer the Scentports. Wallflowers are for smaller rooms like the bathroom and the Scentports are for your larger rooms.

Hands down - Fresh Baked Cookies! An awesome, down-home aroma that is definitely more powerful than most.

CREAMY NUTMEG. It's sugary, it's sweet and its perfect for fall, or winter months when you want something warm, comforting and delicious.

I LOVE Spiced Cider. It is the perfect fall scent! Winter is really great for the upcoming holiday season too!

My favorite Autumn scent is LEAVES. For the Holiday Season, I love The Perfect Christmas SPICE.

I love Midnight Pomegranate, Caramel and Pumpkin scents in the Fall/Winter, And Fresh Lemonade and Cucumber scents in the Summer/Spring. I adore Enchanted Orchid and Sweet Pea for anytime scents. But, I only use Lavendar Chamomile in the Bedroom because I like for that particular room to always have that peaceful, calming aroma.

my all time favorite is pineapple mango. I have about 20 bottles on the side just in case it ever discontinued. I absolutely love it

Winter! it just got really cold out today so i switched all of my scentports out to wallflowers so i can use winter. i am also burning the new winter candle right now too. smells amazing and im ready for the holidays!

It's not about finding just one scent. Harry Slatkin encourages us to fragrance layer with different fragrances in the same fragrance family. Combining similar scents in multiple forms really makes the scent your own.
For example, I always have Wallflowers and Scentports plugged into my house. I use a different fragrance in each room so as I walk from room to room I can smell the fragrance better. This also helps so that I don't get used to the fragrance and stop smelling it. When I feel like cozying up on the couch with my fiance I will light a few candles. Right now that we are in fall I like to light my Warm Vanilla Sugar 14.5 oz 3 wick candle. Since these candles have 3 wicks they create a larger melt pool pushing out the strongest fragrance. Then I take a few of my seasonal candles and light them. Recently it has been the Perfect Autumn Pumpkin, Perfect Autumn Leaves and Caramel Pumpkin. THEN when I'm having guest over I like to burn an oil in my oil warmer to POWER UP! the scent. I usually use something different then what I have burning in the candles, but I keep it in the same fragrance family. With the example above I would use spiced cider. Then right before my guests come in I spray 2 or 3 shots of a room spray right at the front door.
By mixing fragrances you can create a unique fragrance that is all your own. Sometimes I even mix different oils in my oil warmer. Here's one to try. Mix autumn apple with a caramel fragrance like caramel pumpkin to create "caramel apple".
This all may sound like a lot, but being in the house I get used to it and cant smell it after a while. But every time I have guests over they always say my house smells great, and they want to know what I'm using. I have 2 dogs and you would never guess we had dogs with the help of Harry Slatkin!

My favorite this fall is caramel pumpkin. It's the perfect scent for the season! It's not too sweet and not too pumpkin-y. I've purchased the wallflower, candle, and oil. Everyone loves the scent as they enter my home.

I've got 3 that I am crazy about for this time of year: Henri Bendel Pomegranate, Slatkin Perfect Autumn Pumpkin and Perfect Autumn Apple. As we get closer to the Holidays I go for the Winter fragrance!

I have more than one, it's too hard to narrow in one one!
For Fall I like perfect autumn leaves, perfect autumn pumpkin, caramel pumpkin, creamy nutmeg, and cinnamon & clove buds.
For Winter I like perfect christmas tree, perfect christmas winter, vanilla bean noel, winter candy apple, and creamy nutmeg.
I like to buy in candles, wallflowers, and oils.

Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin!

Fresh baked cookie!

Put the candle in the freezer for 5-10 minutes and the wax will pop right out. Then you can put it in a tart burner (like and oil burner, but with a larger reservoir for the wax - you can use the oil burners that have the larger reservoirs as well) to scent your home. Try some goo gone in the bottom of the jars to loosen up the wicks. (they are glued down)
Or, get one of those candle heating plates. It will heat up the wax and let it scent your home, then you can pour it out when it doesn't smell anymore, plus the heat loosens up the wick holders.
I prefer the freezer method, myself. Then you'll be able to use the jars for other things. I always do this with my figural candles, so I can keep them from year to year.

The reason there is wax left in the jar after burning is because it's set as a safety mechanism. If you notice the candles will burn themselves out. Some candles will burn all the wax out of the jar this in turn can let the glass get so hot it ends up breaking and possibly lighting your house on fire.
If you want to continue using the wax for other uses I suggest taking a fork (or whatever else) right after the candle is done burning and picking out the metal wick holder, then stick the candle in the freezer for a few hours, afterwords the will be easier to break out of the jar.

That little bit of wax on the bottom is actually a safety precaution.
You can always pick up a mug/candle warmer at any big box store to warm the candle and get the fragrance oils out of the last bit of wax.
Freezing the last bit of wax in the jar will help it pop out and a wash down in hot, soapy water will get rid of any residue.
We use the leftover jars as cotton ball holders and to hold votives.

You should get a candle warmer, like a hot plate type to melt the wax in the bottom. Also, if you just want to get rid of the extra little bit of wax in the bottom, you can melt it like this and then pour it out...or you could mix them all together and make a brand new scent....be careful mixing certain scents, it might be gross. :)

If I may make a suggestion, I would recommend switching over to the home fragrance oil and using it in an oil warmer. It is much less messy than candles, and you get to use all of it up. Don't have to deal with wicks or messy wax with oil warmers.
Unless you are very inventive, when the candles get down that low, it's advisable just to toss them, as I believe it's not safe to burn them (in glass) past a certain mark due to heat issues.
As far as using the jars, I know for a fact that the wick base will come off, especially if the candle is warmed up.
My dad likes to use the old candle jars I have as a place to store his screws and bolts out in the garage. Says the big ones are the perfect size for it.

Generally, what I do is, put the candle in the freezer for 5 minutes or so, then take it out and hit the bottom of the candle jar with your hand to break the remainder of the wax loose from the jar. You may need a butter knife to free the wax if it is being stubborn. When the wax is free I cut out the wick and holder and place it in a tart warmer. Afterward, I clean out the jar with soap and warm water. I like to store various household items in the jar. I hope this helps!

You can put your candle on a candle warming plate to enjoy the remaining amount of wax. You could also use an old spoon to remove the remaining wax and melt it in a tart burner. If I have had Bath and Body Works/Slatkin/White Barn candles in the past and wanted to keep the jar for another use, I just put the jar in the freezer for about 20-30 minutes and then the wax will pop right out. You are right about the wicks being attached to the bottom of the jar. If you work at it, you can get the little silver disc out. Then you just have to clean up the adhesive residue left on the bottom of the glass. I always keep the jars if they are colored or decorated. They are nice to use with a tealight or flameless votive.

The jars are best to clean them out when the wax is still liquified. This way, you can just pour out the remaing wax and wipe it clean with a paper towel. You can also try pouring hot water from a coffee pot to soften the wax. To get the remaing wax, Goo Gone always works. I then run the jar through my dishwasher on the top shelf to get them spotless. They make great containers.

I don't re-use the jars, i wish i could think of a way to, but you can chip out the remaining wax and put it in a tart warmer, you should get some scent from that.

I didn't know you were only suppose to burn them 3-5 hrs at a time either. Like you, I burn the things like crazy when home. When my candles get down to the "won't light" stage, I have put them on a candle warmer base and still enjoyed the smell. I have also poured one remain into another remains jar and then wiped the empty jar out with a paper towel while it was still warm and liquid. Empty jars can be cleaned and used for tumblers. Though sometimes they have a decorative paint on the jars and this will come off in washing. You can also do as you mentioned and recycle the empty jars. Though if you clean them out, they also make nice little gift jars for candies, etc.

I have used the Scentports and they do not last long. The fragrance is strong and I loved it, but within three weeks all of the oil was gone. It seems to be more expensive to use the Scentports.

The Scentports seem to be a little stronger, but do not last as long as the wallflowers... the wallflowers are a bit less intense... but last a while longer... I personally like the scentport for larger rooms and the wallflowers for smaller spaces.

Scentports are stronger but they only last 4-6 weeks. Wallflowers by comparison last 6-8 weeks. It's a preference call. It really depends on the size of the room as well. The bigger the room the more fragrance you will need.

Wallflowers are better for a small room, and scentports are better for a larger room. I personally like the scentports more than the wallflowers and think they release a stronger scent.

I would go with the wallflowers..seems like the reviews on the scentports most of them seem flawed (ie when they work they're reliable but half the time they aren't up to par..) and your scent may only last you 10 days with the scentport. I've never had a problem with the wallflowers.

the scentport is great for larger rooms in the home. the fragrance bulbs last about 4-6 weeks.
the wallflower is great for smaller spaces and the bulbs last about 6-8 weeks.
hope this helps!

scentports are great for bigger rooms (living room, finished basement, etc), while wallflowers are great for smaller rooms (bathroom, bedroom). also, scentports last 4-6 weeks (because of the stronger scent) and wallflowers last 6-8 weeks. i use both in my home, depending on the room!

It depends on which rooms you want them in. Wallflowers are for smaller rooms, like bathrooms and small bathrooms...they don't put off as much of a scent. Scentports are for the bigger rooms, bedroom, family room,ect. they give off more scents. I have both in my house Wallflowers in the bathrooms and Scentports in the larger rooms! Hope this helps!!

wallflowers are great for small rooms like bathrooms or laundry rooms and last 6-8 weeks
scentports are for larger rooms living rooms kitchens and last 4-6 weeks
so depending on the room your choosing to scent
if its large go with scentports if smaller go with wallflowers

Why not do BOTH? Seriously though, it depends on where your putting them. I find Wallflowers are perfect for smaller rooms or where you desire the fragrance to not be strong. If you want a stronger fragrance, or have a larger room or a room with higher ceilings Scentports are your best bet. I use both just depending on the room. And remember, you want to layer your fragrance so Wallflowers & Scentports are your base notes. Remember to punch it up with a candle or a oil burner or room spray.

I love the fresh bamboo, I didn't in the store, but my daughter bought one and it smells so good....never judge a fragrence by it's store scent...there's so many scents in the store, it's hsrd sometimes to really be able to smell just one. Bamboo is clean & fresh,with almost a very very light incense smell. One little spray lasts for hours, too.

I don't know if you have taken the time to smell the Fresh Bamoo but it smells like grass, it's top notes in fact have the fragrance of grass in them.

To me, Rainkissed Leaves, while a "green" fragrance, does not smell like fresh-cut grass. I would agree it is probably the closest thing to it, though. I have to say I have grown to LOVE this fragrance. I didn't at first, but it really grew on me and now it is one of my favorites. It's light and never gets overpowering, which is why I think it's going to be around for a long time.

try rain kissed leaves in the signature collection it smells just like cut grass not my favorite but sounds like one of yours! hope this helps

Grass...ewwww! Why buy any grass body fragrance when you can just roll around in your yard. Definitely not for me. I think there are ten times better scents out there.

I agree. I absolutely love those natural smells! However, given we live life in the present right now and not in the future, your best bets to get this earthy, green scent is going to be one of three options. For body care, I highly recommend either Rainkissed Leaves or Green Clover and Aloe (you can only buy the latter online, however). For home fragrance, make sure you try Slatkin's Fresh Bamboo line. It comes in candles, room sprays, Wallflower/Scentport starters and refills, and home fragrance oils. I think you'll be pleased!

Definitely not my cup of tea. Have you smelled the new Bamboo scent? It's not grass, but pretty close to it, in my opinion.

that would be great!! have you had the chance to smell his fresh bamboo it is a close second its so fresh and clean. It smells like fresh cut flowers without the flower smell taking over, almost like walking into a florist when they are in the middle of making arrangements!!! you MUST go check it out

I know some people are into that fresh cut grass scent but I'm not particularly fond of grass or other plant fragrances. If you like that kind of outdoorsy, green scent...I'd suggest Bamboo.

I recommend " Cotton Blossom" for a bathroom!

<33good luck happy holidays!<33

I use tropical fruity sents in my bathroom year round. Pineapple mango would be a good one or orange nector. I bought a bunch of the slatkin summer sents at the semi- anual sale this june for 75% off and i have been useing those

I use Winter Candy Apple. It's light, sweet and fruity. Very festive.

Cherry Blossom is great for the bathroom!! It is not overly strong, but strong enough to know you have something in the bathroom.

I love using wallflowers in my bathrooms! I've used brown sugar and fig, the perfect autumn leaves, the perfect autumn pumpkin, and creamy caramel. I love warm scents and since it's fall I use a lot of warm, fall fragrances. If you're not into fall or warm fragrances there are lots of fruity and flowery scents to freshen a bathroom. I just like to give the bathrooms a sense of warmth since it's usually a cool, damp area.

It depends on whether you like to pepper your house with seasonal fragrances. If the answer to that question is no, I absolutely have to recommend Dancing Waters as a Wallflower in your bathroom. It is fresh, crisp, light, and sweet smelling without being obnoxious. It screams clean to me.
A few other nice ones would be Sea Island Cotton, Sweet Pea, Fresh Bamboo, Moonlight Path, or any of the others in the fragrance family once called the Fresh, Cool, and Cleans (anyone at BBW will be able to tell you where they are now at).
It is much harder to find, but Clean Mist and Shore Breeze are also fabulous bathroom scents

For the bathroom I would choose something clean like sea island or fresh linen.

I really like using autumn apple or lilac blossoms. Both of these scents are fresh and release an ample amount of fragrance to cover up odors.

I prefer the glass dish on top, just make sure you clean it good after each use that way the bottom doesn't get to dirty. The electric ones suck as far as being able to smell the oils.

I like the various burners for different reasons. My personal favorite is the classic plain ceramic column. I get a good scent throw from this type of burner, and I feel like it's a little more stable than the type with the glass dish. I have 2 dogs and a cat and have had the glass dishes slide off of the little metal ball supports before & spill when my dog bumped the table the burner was resting on, which damaged the finish of the table.

The ones with a glass dish perform the best as far as scent strength and throw, but they're not as stable as the one-piece columns. I use the glass dish type only when I can be there and supervise while it's burning.

Lastly, I have the electric Slatkin warmer too, and I feel that the scent throw isn't quite as strong as the glass and ceramic burners. It still puts out a nice amount of scent though, just not as strong. However, I can use my electric warmer when I'm busy & can't be in the same room as the burner while it's in use. My new cat is a very curious and busy boy & I like being able to leave the electric one on without worrying about him setting the house on fire. And he would if given a chance. Lol.

Glass seems to be the general concensus followed by the ceramic burners. I don't like the electric burners due to cords. If you don't clean and dry your burner every day don't get the metal ones, mine rusted.

I bought the sale burner , the cream colored ceramic one from this site and I love it. I also prefer the glass top ones. You have to trim the wick of the tea light candle and blow it out after about 20 minutes so you don't have a burnt smell if you don't want to keep trimming the wick of the candle tea light. I did buy the black and the soapstone one but it was chipped and sent it back at the store for a refund of the soapstone one,and the black oil burner rubbed black color off onto my cleaning rag when I would wipe out my warmer top. I hope this helps.

I have a few ceramic oil warmers and the classic three piece one that most stores use to burn their oil. The best one of those kind, by far, is the three piece one. It's a bit more work, but it warms up much faster and it seems as though it disperses the fragrance better than the ceramic ones.
I've also found that the ceramic ones take a while longer to heat up. A word of caution on the oil warmer that is electric: it tends to eat up oil pretty frequently, and I don't find the smell nearly as strong as the open-flame ones.
I tend to avoid the oil warmer with the exposed tealight. It is very attractive but not functional. It's a bit more dangerous and prone to being blown out with any slight draft.

I prefer oil burners with a removable glass dish on top, because they are easier to clean afterward (plus, they look prettier).

I prefer the burners that have the glass tray on top. They seem to have the best scent throw. The ceramic ones, etc don't seem to burn warm enough to really bring the franrance oils "to life". Plus the glass tray burners are really attractive and look great on my coffee table. :-)

If you are talking about oil burners, I suggest the electric burner. The oil lasts longer, you don't have to worry about any candles and the oil overheating and the oil will not get burnt.
It's what I switched to when they came out the it and I love it so much more.

Vanilla caramel/pumpkin patch
Leaves/Autumn apple
fresh balsam/creamy nutmeg
warm vanilla sugar/pumpkin patch

if your looking for a great one for fall u should try pumpkin patch & warm vanilla sugar

White Barn has printed a pamphlet "Top 20 Oil Combinations" by Harry Slatkin that gives a general description of each combination. I shop at several B&BW stores and am not sure which store had this.

Super question! One of my FAVORITE mixes is Jasmine Vanilla and Sandalwood Vanilla. It is awesome. The SanVan cuts the, sometimes overly "sweet" smells and the JasVan mellows out the Sandalwood. It is a great scent any time of year. Try it, I guarantee you will like it to. The next one I want to try is Sandalwood Vanilla and Lavender Vanilla. I think I might like it...

Cinnamon Stick and Autumn Apple.
Leaves and Spiced Cider.
Creamy Nutmeg and Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin.
If you like flowery ones do..
Sweet Pea and Honeysuckle.
Moonlight Path and Cherry Blossom.
If you like fruits do..
Mango Mandarin and Coconut Lime.
Irrestiable Apple and Black Raspberry Vanilla.

Autumn Leaves is great with Creamy Nutmeg and/or Cinnamon and Clove Bud

They balance eachother without being too overpowering.

Also, any of the spices (Cinnamon, Nutmeg, Spiced Cider, Pumpkin, etc.) can be combined in all different ways to make awesome originals!

Oh my goodness. My favorite thing to talk about.

Evergreen and Cinnamon Stick
Fresh Bamboo and Leaves
Autumn Apple and Leaves
Cinnamon and Clove Buds and Orange Nectar
Creamy Caramel and Autumn Apple
Winter and Tree

They all smell WONDERFUL together

I have many oil burners since it is my favorite way to home fragrance, and one of my burners is electric. I do like the electric one, but I do agree with much that has been said. The fragrance doesn't seem as strong as with a glass or ceramic top burner and you do have to put more oil in it to fill it up. However, I can touch the burner at any time no matter if I just turned it on or if it has been burning for a long period of time. I also don't have to worry about an open flame or it over heating and it's pretty maintence free. It also makes a great alternative if you have pets. I have two cats that are always curious about flame, but they have never gone over to the warmer and I don't have to worry about them playing around an open flame.

I have the electric one a well as the tea light one and this is what I noticed.
1. The tealight burner when you light it you can start to smell it within 5 min. The electric takes about 20 until you can actually smell it.
2. The tealight burner sucks up the oil faster but the electric keeps on going.
3. If you dont wash out the leftover oil in the tealight burner it will wear away the glass or ceramic and cause there to be a crack/hole.

i have the electric warmers to along with the ones with the tealights. the warmers heat up just fine for me. it's just enough to. i leave mine on all the time. i check mine every so often to make sure there's still oil in it.

I purchased the electric oil burner about 5 months ago and personally do not like it as well as the other tealight burners. I leave mine plugged in because it also has an off/on switch, but I have to put a lot of oil in it to cover the bottom. I use around 1/3 of a bottle just to fill the bottom and it still needs refilled after 4 hours or so. It does not burn as strong as the tealight burners, nor does it circulate around the room. If you really like your oils to burn strong and circulate well, then I would not recommend the electric burner. The only advantage is the on/off switch and I sometimes leave mine turned on for days at a time, I just keep refilling it.

Hey NahimamaCG. I am an avid oil burner and I've tried many different kinds of burners and what have you, and I can tell you that those with the glass dishes for the oil to sit in burn the strongest, by far. The electric oil warmers are nice and a bit safer, but I have to be honest in saying that I don't notice nearly as much of a fragrance throw. My electric one from Bath and Body Works does not get very hot at all. You can actually put your hands on it when it's fully heated up and hold them there.
I also feel like the oil warmer (electric) needs more oil to get a decent fragrance throw that isn't even that impressive to begin with. So for your first question, I don't think it heats the oil nearly enough. Second question, I do NOT find that they are stronger than the tealight burners with the glass top. Not by a long shot.
As far as how long you can leave them plugged in, I leave mine on for hours and hours at a tiem sometimes all day) and it has never caused a problem whatsoever. There is a switch on the cord that you flip on and off. You do not have to unplug it when you are done heating the oil. All it takes is a flip of a button. Hope this helps!

I've had one for a year now, it's not the plate warmer kind, but a full sized candle warmer that holds a 22-26 oz candle. It truly melts all the wax down to a liquid. I plug mine in all day & night, if I'm home. I don't notice the scent so much when I'm home but anyone who comes over or if I leave & come back I can really smell them. I've unintentionally left mine plugged in over night and my house did not burn down, however, I've made sure ever since then to make sure it's off when I go to bed. The candle oil is hot so you'd want to be careful with kids or pets pulling it over or tripping on the cord, the usual precautions. But a candle will last, well, a year so far. The wax just melts when it's hot and resolidifies when it's not. I love mine. It's just so much easier and less expensive. And you can still light a candle or two of your favorite scent to blend in with it.

I am i love with the electric oil warmers. I purchased my first glass one when they launched 3 years ago. The beauty of the electric warmer is that I find it heats the oil more evenly, extending the life of the fragrance. And there's an on/off switch for ease and the unit turns off automatically after a certain amount of time has passed.

I have never had this problem with B&BW, Slatkin & Co. or White Barn candles. You may be trimming the wick(s) too short or you're not burning them long enough each time you're using them. I recommend that you burn the candles until there is about an inch of melted wax visible from the outside of the jar (This should take about 3-5 hours). Extinguish the candle and let it cool. If you're trimming the wicks, I would suggest that you stop doing so. Slatkin candles (which include all or most of B&BW and White Barn) are specially designed so you don't have to trim the wicks. If you follow the directions above, you shouldn't have any more problems from here on out. To fix your current candle, scrape the wax (if any) that is stuck to the sides of the jar off with a butter knife. Dig a small ring of wax from around the wick with a spoon and light the candle. In order to not waste the wax that you remove from the jar, I'd save it for a tart burner.

OR, if you don't want to dig the wax out, I'd invest in a candle warmer. That will eliminate your problem completely.

Make sure when you start a new candle that you burn it long enough before extinguish it. The melt pool must cover the top.
What you may have now is a candle that has tunneled after a series of short burns. Now if you have wax along the sides of the jar it can melt and out goes your wick.
If that is the issue, try to scrap away some of the extra wax along the jar wall. Save it, you can use it in a tart burner. Then burn your candle until the pool is even along the top.

It depends on the candle. I bought my mother the new Tree candle in the glass jar, and she mentioned to me that the wick keeps drowning when she burns it.
As others have mentioned, burn time is important. The 14.5 ounce Slatkin candles are to be burned up to four hours. The wicks should be trimmed, contrary to popular believe, to around an eighth of an inch before each burn. The carbon bulbs that build up on them should also be brushed off so as not to fall into the wax pool while burning.
If you trim the wicks, you might be taking too much off. Try leaving them a little longer for awhile and you may see a difference. I'd also advise keeping the candle away from any draft if there is one.

Are you trimming your wick? Harry Slatkin says that you do not have to trim his wicks. This is important because it generates enough heat to completely liquify the candle across the entire top. Also, keep an eye on it, sometimes they will tilt in which you just use a wick dipper to straighten it out and keep it centered.

You should trim the wick before every lighting.

Make sure that every time before re-lighting your candle to trim the wick. Also, make sure to only burn your candle no more than 5 hours at a time.

No, you're not doing anything wrong. I've had the same problem, but not with all B&BW candles. It's curious that some burn clean and beautifully, while others put themselves out by drowning the wick.
When I experience the "drowning wick syndrome," I pour some of the melted wax out into the trash can. Then I wipe down the sides of the candle with a paper towel before the wax cools. When you relight it and it evens out, it usually burns more cleanly.
I hope you have success!
