I've ordered 1 of almost every scent they offer, but this has to be my favourite. All the scents are strong out of the box, yet when burnt are delicate & not at all overwhelming. Beautifully packaged, arrived very quickly, shipping is reasonable & prices cannot be beat! I LOVE these candles!

I ordered this scent & Pomegranate. Both arrived in just a few days. They were packaged so beautifully I don't want to open (& burn) them. Lovely netting tied w/ a ribbon. Had to be done by hand. My house does smell wonderful, though, from the scents, even though I've not yet burnt them. I am going to order a whole bunch more!

These scented soy jar candles are lovely to give as gifts as well as keep for your own use. They burn clean, do not leave a smokey residue on walls or ceilings. The scent of these candles is very pleasing, it is not thick or overpowering; instead, very light and relaxing. I recommend these candles highly, not only for their high qualities, but they are extremely affordable. You definitely get your money's worth.

Although I liked the scent of my ther'e-Pe candle, little did I know of the fire danger it posed. The directions say not to burn longer than 3 to 4 hours. It was about the 4 hour time frame, when our fire alarms screeched and announced "Fire, Fire." The candle wick had fallen below the melted wax and the entire surface of wax was on fire with flames 4 inches high and the top 1 inch of the glass jar was so hot it exploded and flew in every direction. NEVER burn this candle more than 3 hours at one time.

These candles have been so frustrating! I have spent years using Votivo, Archipelago, The Thymes and most recently Lucia soy candles. These Therepe candles don't have as many interesting scents, but the one I was able to salvage was clean burning, very fragrant and lasted just as long as my $30 Thymes Indigenous candles. The order came in a complete mess. There wasn't a mere softening of the wax, which I would expect in hot weather, they spread all over the box they were shipped in. The little organza bag that they came in was completely saturated and ruined. I saved one by using a spatula to scrape up all the spilled wax, tried to re-smooth the top without losing the wick, washed the outside of the glass with soap and water, and refrigerated it. Candle Bay was good enough to send a replacement order immediately after my first complaint, I will give them that. The replacements arrived today, delivered directly into my hands so they did not sit out of doors, and in worse condition than the first order. I began yet another salvage attempt by squeezing the gelatinous wax from the organza pouch, then stopped and laughed at the ridiculous lengths I had gone to make the best out of a $20 purchase. They went directly into the garbage. It's really a shame. Not a single other soy candle that has been shipped to me has had been anything other than perfect...even in hot weather. The quality and the price combo of Therepe candles is unbeatable, but pointless if I am unable to enjoy it.

These soy candles are both cost-friendly AND eco-friendly, each lasting many hours. A true bargain! Thank you!!!

I absolutely loved these candles at first. The lavender, mandarin grapefruit, lemongrass, and sandalwood smell AMAZING and are an amazing price. A couple of them arrived broken due to the shipping process, and the company quickly shipped replacements with no hassle.

The problem however lies in the wick, which I guess is too thick.

I am religious about keeping my candle wicks trimmed. There is something wrong when you trim the wick, light the candle, and 30 minutes later the entire top half of the glass is black from smoke. Eventually black smoke stained my wall/ceiling near where the candle sat. I won't be purchasing these anymore as I need something cleaner.

CANDLES (ALL SCENTS) ARE VERY LIGHTLY SCENTED. SINCE THEY BURN NICELY, THEY DO LOOK NICE WHEN COUPLED WITH ANOTHER CANDLE (S) THAT ACTUALLY HAVE A SCENT. ON THEIR OWN, NOT MUCH FRAGRANCE.

Loved them so much I have already ordered again. Come in a little gift bag, perfect for that unexpected gift or thank you.

Candle Bay sells a great smelling candle, burns for a long time and is a great price.
