Last week I purchased 4 Large 2 Peas in a pod scented candles. After Oz had bought the vanilla bean candle and raved about how good it was I just had to get Adore to get some in for us. I am so glad I decided to do this.
I am a scented candle Freak. I literally have hundreds that are just sitting in the cupboard waiting to one day get used. In my opinion there is nothing nicer or more relaxing than a scented candle burning in any room.
The four Large Candles I purchased by 2 Peas In A Pod were:
Vanilla Bean, Jasmine, Cucumber and Lavender.
I wasn't sure what they were going to be like and to be totally honest thought that they would be average due to the low price of around $19 each. I am very much a believer in the saying you get what you pay for.
However I had heard reviews from quite a few different people saying they were gorgeous so naturally I wanted to try them all.
I picked up my Adore Order last week containing my 2 Peas In A Pod candles and I could smell the scents wafting out of the box before I had even opened it (this is always an encouraging sign for me). Of course I had to open each of their boxes to get a feel for what the scents were like. Here's my Thoughts:
Vanilla Bean - This is a rich sweet vanilla fragrance (definitely my favourite).
Jasmine - This is a sweet Jasmine floral scent (and it's pink which means it's a winner in my opinion)
Cucumber - I didn't think I would like this but was so curious I orderd it anyway:chuckle:!! I absolutely love it! It's a really crisp fresh scent, not too green just nice and clean and refreshing.
Lavender - Calling all Lavender Lovers. This is a gorgeous lavender (and I am not usually a lavender fan at all). This would be fab for the bedroom prior to sleeping at night.
On Sunday night I started burning the Vanilla Bean Candle. At first I couldn't smell it much but after around ten minutes the full body of the scent developed and my room was encased in vanilla Bean Scent. I walked out of the room momentarily and when I walked back in the smell was even more evident. I simply could not believe the quality of the fragrance in these candles for such a reasonable price.
I highly rate these candles. They will certainly be re-purchased by me in the future and they will also make gorgeous gifts as well. I am planning to get Mum some for Mother's day as she is a scented candle freak also.
Just note that you have to trim the wick prior to lighting these candles as otherwise the flame gets a little too high. If you trim the wick to about 1.5 cm each time before you use it you will be fine.
