Try it!

Added this to my cart just because, and what I love about it is you get to try a scent you might normally not be drawn to based on the description. I got the le cirque des reves scent and OMG I want to eat the candle. Will try this again.

Yes, sir

Makes you want to do what it suggests. Cozy, warm scent. Hope they keep this one in regular rotation.

Pleasant surprise

Tried this one on a whim. Love it! Definitely sets the right tone for the genre. Would buy again.

please restock

I should've known to stock pile this one, I'd forgotten how much I love the scent. Cozy, intoxicating scent.

Oh, the scents!

I almost don’t want to light the candle, just open it up and smell it when I need a lift!

Not a mystery, I love this scent

I was super excited about this candle because of the scent notes and the color. Neither disappoints. It's amazing. 12/10, hope to get it again soon (it might be in my cart now)?

Fresh and spring

Great candle for spring, it's a nice fresh scent. If still available on my next order, would order again.

You never know what you'll get!

I ordered 3 mystery candles with my last order, 2 I love, 1 is ok, all I had previously received. It's a really great deal, and even received one of my favorites that's not currently listed for sale on the site (Scottish Ridge, perfect for spring!).

Nice!

Haven't burned this too much yet, but it has all the scents I like. Woodsy, campy but the champagne brings a lightness/airy-ness to it. Feels good for someone who loves the fall, but wants to bring some spring into the house this season.

LOVE

Love this. Can't stop burning it. Strong, pleasantly chocolatey smell that makes me feel like I am working from a bakery or cafe while I work from home.

A cozy and lovely scent!

I was curious about this scent so I bought the sample version the first time. The smell is perfect for cozy days and reading at home! I just had to get more so I bought the 8oz candle! This one might be my absolute favorite!

Excellent smell!

This candle has a wonderful scent and I fell in love at first light! It captures the essence of the winter forest so perfectly and the distant scent of bonfire! I love writing with this candle, it helps transport me to another world!

Coffee shop vibes at home

This very strongly scented candle smells like my favorite coffee house when I’m there enjoying a book and a chocolate-almond pastry. Very well done scent and sure to be a winner with you all! Add some French bistro music and you’ll be all set!

Perfect scent with the perfect name

The unique, relaxing scent of Bookstore is a big hit and ideal for quiet reading time.

Mulled wine, anyone?

This reminds me of mulled wine, which makes this perfect for cozying up in winter months. The blackberry adds something richer and headier to the mix. Also, gorgeous color! I wish I'd purchased one or two more before they went into the vault.

So glad this came back!

This is in constant rotation at my home. Smells boozy and comforting and delicious, all at the same time. Will always stock up when this candle is available (hint, hint, Frostbeard).

Quality Scents

First off, the small tins are so stinking cute! All the scents are great. My favorite is Castle Fire Demon. Clove and cinnamon are my favorite smells.

It's what you light when you wanna write

It gets you quiet and in the zone. A lovely scent that calms the mind, as if you are in a lovely cabin in the woods instead of in your apartment playing birdsong and forest sounds. Lol. Good scent, last long.

Smells like the name!

It's such a cozy scent! Like curling up with a good book after a nice bubble bath, with fresh cut flowers on the table. Vibes.

Strong scent and long lasting!

I got the wax melts. This is a stronger scent, but it last long. It may not be for people with sensitivity to heavy aromas. But it does smell glorious!

Love this!

This scent is so great for the transition to spring! Still warm and woodsy, but with the bright champagne pop. I wish this one was around for more than a month!

Great candles!

I really like the option of getting random candles for a discount, got a great selection of scents I would not have normally went for but I like them all!

I received "Wibbly Wobbly Timey Wimey", "Grimoire" and "Holiday Romance", so a nice variety of seasonal scents.

I will definitely buy again in the future!

Pleasant woodsy scent

This is a light but pleasant woodsy scent that gives a subtle but warm cozy aroma while burning. Wouldn't mind if the throw were stronger but all in all nice candle.

Comforting!

Actually feels like I'm in school again studying in the stacks, but without the stress of impending exams. A comfortable feel of retreating from the world with a book.

My favorite part of the month!

Not only is Frostbeard unmatched in terms of scents and theming, I love the surprise of guessing what will come for my candle of the month! So far, they've all been hits, and I can hardly wait for each new one to arrive.
