Candlefind Review Board Archive

First off, kudos to candlefind! It's an amazing site, and I've been introduced to so many more brands of candles. My review is on Time and Again Lychee Fruit scented candle. I was browsing through a local candle shop when I saw a display with a candle lamp shade top. I noticed the scent was lychee fruit, which was exactly the scent I was looking for! I've noticed that lychee is an up and coming scent, but not really popular because it is an exotic fruit that most likely not too many people have tried. The closest scent I think it compares to is a pear. Not too strong but definitely a little sweet, but not in your face. I lit the candle the minute I got home and was pleased that the smell was authentic. There is not a strong scent throw but the lychee fruit does not have an overpowering smell to begin with. I also bought the waffle tarts in the same scent and the scent was much stronger than the candle, which was nice. The waffle tarts come 8 to a pack and are so cute. They look like little pieces of candy. I could smell the tart from upstairs. I will definitely have to go back and purchase the candle/tarts again. The owner of the store doesn't even put out the scent unless asked for. I guess no one is really looking for a lychee scented candle, which works out for me! These candles are beautiful with a modern minimalist look.

While on my weekend shopping spree, I came across these tarts in a cute little store and, since I've never tried them before, could not resist (they were also on sale for $1/pack, so how could I?). I only got fig and avacado & lime. This is a smaller pack than the ones I am familiar with so it does take at least two squares to get a sufficient wax pool. The wax is hard and snaps easily and the scent throw is nice, although moderate. The fragrance itself is very good, with a sophisticated quality to it. This is perfect for a smaller room, in a smaller burner, and I like them very much. If I come across them again, on sale, I would certainly purchase more!
