Love the scent, but am disappointed in candle’s

Love the scent, but am disappointed in candle’s appearance. Majority of candle is faded/discolored. Purchased for gift but am embarrassed to gift it since it doesn’t look as nice as it smells. This is not a cheap item.

So sorry the candle appearance isn't what you expected. Frosting can occur with soy wax, as it is a natural product. It can sometimes be caused by temperature changes during shipping, but it does not affect the burn time or scent throw, We appreciate the feedback.

Lovely!

I'm very sensitive to candle scents, and will usually get headaches if the scents are too strong. However, these candle is simply lovely! The scent is soft and not too overpowering, much like their other candles. It is a nice touch to any room. I highly recommend it.

This is my most favorite candle so far

I got this candle for my birthday last year and I have been holding off on using because of how pretty it was on my study table. I finally decided to use it and it has become my fav candle now. I am placing the order for second one already!!

The perfect candle to read by!

This scent is so calming. The lavender mixed with the ginger let's off a soothing scent with the slight bite of spice. It truly smells like rain! Most fresh rain scents I find are so soapy, but not this one! It's my favorite candle!

Expected Better

I chose this scent based on the popular reviews for it, but it didn’t fully meet my expectations. The scent of ginger was so much stronger than the lavender scent & fresh rain, which was more obsolete due to the power of the ginger.

Perfect for a dreary day

This candle is has such a relaxing scent! It really brightens up the room.

Lovely scent, but barely noticeable when lit

When I burn this candle, I am barely able to smell it. It’s lovely in the jar, but the scent doesn’t fill the room when the wax is hot. Also, the wax creates craters/air pockets when it dries and makes for uneven burning. Disappointing first purchase from Frostbeard.

Rainy day reads is highly Disappointing. For a 1st candle choose something else.

If you choose a candle choose something else first than this. I'd suggest if this scent just choose something from walmart.Was looking forward to the candle and it was a complete fail for the price. It's incredibly faint perhaps for on a desk. Does NOT fill even half the room. As far as the smell does not resemble rain. Now it does have a nice delicate smell l, the ginger is a nice touch(i wished that it was enhanced to fill half the room)but not worth the price again. I wonder now if it's like that for their other candles. Sadness

Petrichor!

Oh I really do love this one, I think its my new favorite sent next to Castle Fire Demon! I love the gorgeous sent that it gives my room.

Great gifts

I bought this candle, and one other, for my sister’s graduation gift. She loves them! I ordered online and picked the scents by their description. My sister says they smell just like the labels say. The shipping process was excellent & was delivered exactly on time. I will definitely by purchasing more products in the future! Thank you!

Trial by rainstorm...

Huge storms in TN gave me the perfect morning to enjoy this candle. I like the scent, though it is a little sweet for me (my favorite is The Shire). Likely to purchase again, definitely gift-worthy.

Comforting in the Storm

It started storming today and I was so excited to light this candle! It is the perfect subtle and relaxing scent for a rainstorm spent with books and blankets. The rain water and lavender scent is sheer magic.

I just love these candles and am looking forward to lighting them while reading great books.

Great stuff order it every month

One of my favorites!

I love to use this candle during the summer because it sets the right "vibe" for a long reading session.

Smells divine.

Just love the way it smells and makes me feel!!

Just love the way it smells and makes me feel!! Good memories!

I expect d this to “smell” more like rain

I expected this to “smell” more like rain. All I get is the lavender scent. I’m disappointed.

Spring!

One of my favorite spring scents!

Great Scent

Fast shipment. Beautiful scent. Will definitely order again!!

Peaceful enjoyment in a turbulent time

Great product and fast shipping!

Absolutely love this candle. The scent is strong, which I love. Will definitely buy again.

Pleasant, sweet smell. I recommend it.

One of the best

I pretty much always need to have at least one of these in my house, ready to go when I'm reading on a gray day. Unique scent, really light and refreshing but still fragrant with a good throw.

Liked it so much I ordered one for my BFF of 50+ years and one for my sister-in-law. Both are book nuts too.

Great Customer Service

I was disappointed when I received broken candles. However, now I realize the customer service of Frostbeard Studio is amazing! Due to some issues, their response was delayed. Now I'm so happy with my candles and the service. Order from Frostbeard for quality candles that smell wonderful and spot on customer service.
