I was curious which one people prefer. I'm leaning toward the Bwarm candle because of the design shape, but the Afterglow looks tempting because of the brush.

I only have the Jimmyjane Afterglow. Just the smell of the bourbon sends chills down my spine. We love this candle so much I really should write a review. Since I haven't yet I'll tell you the brush is cute but I don't find it very useful except to tickle. The oil from the candle is not really slick but soft and silky. Sounds strange but for me that's better. I don't like to slip off the skin when giving a massage. I light the candle for about 45min and just pour on once it cools for a few mins. You really don't need too much to cover the entire body and it leaves the skin soft not oily. The candle is simple and pretty as would be expected from Jimmyjane.

I've only tried the Bwarm, but both my boyfriend and I love it. We got the fig scent, and it's the loveliest scent of candle or massage oil I have ever experienced. The shape of the candle holder is great for pouring the oil with no spills, but some leftover wax will dry on the pouring "spout". This does melt off the next time you use the candle, but it can look "messy". It's very nice and light, not oily at all. I haven't tried the Jimmyjane Afterglow, but the Bwarm has been awesome and I don't think you would regret purchasing it.

Thanks for replying, I'm so in between! I need to find someone who has tried both since they sound amazing. It's a hard decision!

I was thinking about the fig, since I do have an issue with very strong smells. The design is what is tempting me. Does a little go a long way?

You don't have to slather it on, but you do need to pour a fair amount depending on the area of skin you hope to cover. With our Bwarm, I'd estimate we've gotten 10 uses out of it so far and it looks like it's going to hold up for about 5 more. If you do get the fig scent, I think you'll enjoy it. It's not overpowering, but it lingers on your skin in that really wonderful way.

Oooh, I think you may have sold me. Anything that leaves a light scent without being overpowering is my type. I do love fig scented candles. Thanks!

I have them both. I like them both equally in terms of texture of the massage oil. Though they are different. The Bwarm is creamier. The JimmyJane is oilier but a nice oil.
The JJ has more wax and will last us longer. We have it in the fig leaf scent, which I'm not super crazy about. It's a bit too green smelling for me.
The Bwarm holder is great for pouring. We have that in Amber and I love that scent.
I guess if I had to choose between the two I would pick the Bwarm.

I like the container of Jimmyjane better.

I'm pretty sure the newer scents, the ones that are actually available, do not come with brushes. Only the older versions.
