It is a just ordinary candle with not-that-marvelous scent, and way too expensive for the quality. Don’t be taken in by seductive words.

I bought two of these candles because of the reviews. I was expecting too much. I bought the deep clover one and the clean crisp white. While they smelled nice the smell wasnt as strong as I expected. I live in a tiny condo and the only time I could smell anything from these candles was when I walked past them. I’ve had much better luck with a cheaper candle from department stores. Even yankee candles have a stronger scent. On the plus side the candles look nice and they were packaged very well.

I bought this for my wife for the holidays, it was a bit expensive for a candle but I believed that it would last a long time and burn uniformly. However, in our case, after about an hour the candle went out. The wick burned too quickly, becoming too small, and now the candle won’t stay lit for more than a few minutes before it drowns in the wax. The return shipping will cost a lot, so we will just toss it out. Waste of money, don’t buy one.

I was v. unimpressed with some of the fragrances, especially Squid Surprise and Old Man's Cadaver.

Who the heck wants their house smelling like some elderly fisherman died there last week?

Also, an electric bulb works better at lighting a room and is way cheaper to run. Rating: 2 / 5

When i got this candle i was very excited, but when i lit it, it seemed to make a scent that strongly smelled of fart. When i put it out, the fart smell went away.
