Real coffee!

I like they fragrance. I can light them in the morning to wake up instead of drinking coffee.

Yummy vanilla

This was my first ever order! I had been looking with no avail for a true yummy vanilla cupcake scented candle until I took a chance on this one. It smells exactly like I wanted it to. So vanillary and I’m so happy with it that I’m gonna buy the large one next time.

Perfect for the holiday season

The cinnamon spice scent is well-balanced with the evergreens. This one was on rotation with Christmas Tree for this year's holiday festivities.

パチパチ音は唯一無に

パチパチ音がいいです。匂いも柔らかくていい。最初は家族からもらったフォレストを使ったのがきっかけ。友人が気に入ったので四つのうちの一つをプレゼント。

Scent descriptions are tricky!

It's difficult to know what a candle will smell like based on a written description. For example, Patchouli Woods is more sweetly perfumed than the woodsy herbal scent I expected. Although some of the scents in this set are surprising, they are all pleasant and I am enjoying the fragrance in my home as I try each one.

Yummy!

I LOVE this candle! It has a strong chocolate smell that lasts for a long time. I like drinking hot chocolate while burning it.

コーヒーの香りの再現度が高いです！

蓋を開けた瞬間にコーヒーの香りが広がって、コーヒーが目の前にあるかのように錯覚するほど香りの再現度が高く驚きでした。カフェオレに近いほんのり甘さのある香りでした◎使用すると部屋中がコーヒーのいい香りに包まれて幸せな気持ちになります☺︎リピ確定です、また購入させていただきます！

日替わりで香りを選んでクリスマスまでワクワクできます

憧れの海外のクリスマス気分を味わえる香りです！12個あるので日替わりで楽しんでいます。甘い香りは得意ではありませんが、スモールサイズだと強くなり過ぎず、テンションが上がる程度に香ってちょうど良かったです！

Sharing the Holiday Magic!

I was a little hesitant to make such a big purchase, but I’m so glad I did! I was able to share wonderful holiday scents that were nostalgic and fun for me with my kids.

Getting a big set meant that there was something for everyone to enjoy, and I have been loving trying out different scents everyday!

Instructions for Use & Scent Information

1. First Burn: Burn your candle for 1-2 hours on the first use to ensure the wax melts all the way to the edge of the jar. This helps prevent "tunneling" and allows for an even burn. 2. Recommended Lighter: To safely light your candle all the way down to the bottom, we recommend using a long-tipped lighter, such as a barbecue-style lighter. 3. Small Flame Fix: If the flame becomes small, extinguish the candle, remove any excess wax, and wait for the wax to harden before relighting. Be careful, as the wax and container will be hot. 4. Safety: Always burn your candle on a flat, stable, heat-resistant surface. Keep it away from flammable objects and never leave it unattended. Ensure the candle is out of reach of pets and children. 5. Burning Time: Do not burn your candle for more than 4 hours at one time to avoid overheating the container. Scent Information: Our essential oil candles are made with 100% plant derived essential oils that we use to make our own original essential oil blends for the scents in the candles. We also have synthetic fragrances in a variety of scents. In general the essential oil candles are a softer, more natural type of scent. Our fragrance oil candles are generally stronger scents and more exotic smelling. If you are sensitive to scents we recommend considering our essential oil candles! Small candles tend to create a smaller wax pool and have a more subtle scent. They are perfect for small spaces or those who prefer a lighter fragrance. Larger candles create a wider wax pool when burning, which allows more fragrance to be released into the air. We recommend larger candles for customers who enjoy stronger, more noticeable scents or are using them in larger spaces and are also looking for the additional value of the added burn time.
