Capitol Hill Cattucinno:

Just like Carolyn, I love a good coffee scent and the name alone on this one sold me.  The color of my candle was actually a milky brown, not white which added more flare to the coffee theme. Here is the scent description for this fragrance:

"Gotta Cuppa Joe? Well, save yourself a few bucks every week by burning our almost-real cappuccino scented soy candle...creamy and sweet...choose SUPER-scented or Slightly-Scented (coming soon)...kinda like one shot or two...no calories.  Sweet espresso."

Seattle is well known for it's famous Coffee, Seattle,s Best & Starbucks are the two biggest names I can think of offhand but I know there are a few more.  We may as well say gourmet coffee capital of the world here simply because of Starbucks.  So how did this scent live up to such dynamic coffee giants?  Not bad, not bad at'tall.

This was such a delicious coffee fragrance, I was tempted to drink right out of the glass if I could have.  I love realistic scents and Capital Hill Cattucino definitely was realistic and had my nose sniffin' away all day.  I lit this candle in my bedroom and the warm and inviting scent of cappuccino filled the room within 15 minutes. This fragrance was so sweet and creamy, just as the description implies and every time I walked into the room, I could have been walking into my favorite coffee house.  There was nothing bitter to this scent whatsoever, just a smooth and rich cup of java.  Definitely give this one a try.  It's a clear cut winner.

Cascade Current:

I burned this fragrance in their full votive glass cup and we're talking brimming to the top full.  I've burned a few current scents and I guess you could say it's marketed as more of a winter fruity fragrance but I think it's nice any time since it's so fresh and uplifting. Here is the scent description for this fragrance:

"Rich, sweet and fruity. This scent is fresh and uplifting.  Difficult for me to describe this fruity/floral scent.  Includes notes of cassis, citrus peel and fir.  Ribes sanguinuem is our native red currant here in the temperate Pacific Northwest and it grows wild under the cover of huge cedars and firs. And by the way, this soy candle is also wildly popular!"

Great description and it is definitely hard scent to describe.  I can smell all of the above with everything blended to perfection.  I could distinctively make out the fir which I found pleasant and my husband loved it for obvious pine obsessive reasons. The overall fragrance was very pleasing and easy to breathe in.

I burned this votive in a smaller bathroom and the scent throw was wonderful so I know a larger glass jar would be great in a bigger room.  Definitely give this scent a try if you love crisp berry scents sure to uplift your spirits.

How Did My Soy Candles from SparklePuss Burn?

My candles burned evenly & completely to the bottom with no waste.

I was very impressed with this company and my candles.  I don't think you could go wrong with anything you order from SparklePuss and I will definitely be going back for more.  I'm really getting into tarts and think I'll order the lot so I can sample everything they have to offer. Definitely order some candles too because these little guys pack a pretty surprising punch and are well worth the cost.

Happy candle shopping!
