Weak Scent

I think it smells good, but the smell doesn't radiate far

A
Holiday Seasonal Pack
Ashley T. (Avon Lake, OH)
Pretty good selection of holiday scents

I really like the Bah Humbug and Holiday Hygge, but the other two scents aren't really my style. I still love the quality of the wax melts, so I will be gifting these scents to someone else!

Favorite Frostbeard

I bought a 2oz of this scent to try it out last year and liked it so much I bought bigger ones for myself and my mom. It's a very comfy aroma of coffee and chocolate.

Perennial favorite!

Seasonal candles come and go (and are wonderful) but Oxford Library is one I have to have in store all year round. The leather and woody smells are very calming and the throw is just strong enough to give me a lightly scented cloud in my office without making the whole place smell like a leather goods store. I feel like it's my secret weapon for focusing at work even when things get hectic!

Christmas in the Great Hall

Favorite Christmas Scent!

This is my favorite of the winter/Christmas scents. It has such a perfect balance of Christmas tree and Christmas vibes. I have artificial trees and I use this melt all of December to make my home still have that perfect Christmas smell.

Headmaster's Office
Erin R. (Riverbank, CA)
All time favorite!

Headmasters Office is my absolute year round favorite sent. Almost the only one I use. I use the melts and they work great. I am super sensitive to smells and get migraines easily and this is one of the only ones that doesn’t bother me. I’m a huge HP fan so that helps. But really, the smell is the best.

My new favorite

While similar to the grimoire candle, it adds on an herbacious quality which only adds to the intrigue.

I could deal with it being a little bit stronger, but maybe the desire for more is part of the allure.

Bright pleasant scent

The ginger (though mild) offsets the floral quality of the lavender scent, which I appreciate.

Decent

More tobacco than cider, but still enjoyable. You just have to be in the right mood for it.

Grimoire

Exceptional

Different from any candle I've owned. Pleasant, but musky scent. Fills a medium sized room well.

Some good some mediocre

I've gotten more good luck with this option than bad.

Definitely worth a look, especially if you are considering giving one of these candles as a gift.

Smells amazing just like coffee and chocolate

Strong coffee smell

Smells like coffee.. and scent doesn’t fill the room.

The 2oz size is meant to be a sampler so you can get an idea of the scent, and typically won't be strong enough to fill a room. We should include this information in the description, so thanks for your feedback!

Men’s body spray

Men’s body spray…That’s what I think of when I smell this candle. I do smell the leather in it a little, but it’s not good enough for me to buy again. Scent doesn’t fill the room.

Strong Ginger smell

I think it’s the only candle I got that I can actually smell without being on top of it. But it doesn’t remind me of the rain.. guess it’s just the name. If you like ginger, then this is the candle for you.

Smell does not fill the room

I like the scent, but when it’s lit it hardly gives off the fragrance. You literally have to have your nose in the flame to smell it lol I wouldn’t get it again.

Pairs well with a leather couch

This candle has jist the right amount of the tobacco scent. Not overpowering like some. Scent spreads well.

Great Autumn Candle

Sweet and sour, love the prominent apple scent, balanced nicely by mellowed notes like newspaper and leaves.
