The scents and stories behind each candle are so unique and one can't help but affiliate scents with memories. They from what I last hear are currently more of an online and mobile candle making shop, but I hope they are able to come back and open up a brick & mortar again. If you're seeing this review check out their website and you too will appreciate the descriptions of each candle and have a solid understanding of what to expect. Wicks Nola is more than just candles though they have linen sprays, aromatherapy focused products, and more. I also would consider their bulk candle program if I had a moment that required buying gifts in bulk as they offer a steep discount once you buy a certain quantity.

As always super cute merchandise, mostly made in Louisiana. I was specifically there for my 2nd brother's birthday present but ended up with some cute things for me too.

Really nice find in Esplanade Mall. They had a lot of nice soaps, bath bombs, lotions, and candles…read more They even had seasonal items. I felt that the prices were very reasonable and the store owner was very helpful. She helped me put together a Halloween themed gift basked. My only complaint is that I use natural soap in the shower and it's very strongly scented. You come out smelling a little perfumed. But you might like that :-)

I had a phone reading with Krysten. The reading lasted an hour but you can also purchase a 30…read moreminute reading if you can't do a full hour. Krysten was spot on and very patient with all of my questions. The reading Krysten gave me provided clarity and answers to a situation I'm currently dealing with. I really wish I could disclose specifics but I want to protect my privacy. Let's just say that everything she told me was accurate. She knew things without me volunteering details. Krysten gave me a lot of hope for the future and I'm confident that I'm able to turn things around. After the reading, Krysten took a lot of time answering questions and she provided advice. The reading is not scary at all. Try it for yourself.

Simple Sweetness!…read more SITREP Such a fun little boutique of a store to kill some time at while waiting to pick up a friend at the Louis Armstrong airport. SETUP Total Tourist Trap, but that is it's charm, and if you happened to accidentally miss the French Quarter, the Marigny neighborhood, or a couple hours trooping through the French Market, at least you have Sweet Simplicity to catch as a final stop before leaving NOLA where you catch some most excellent NOLA, Louisiana, and Saints paraphernalia before you jet out of town. ITEMS GALORE From cooking utensils, food items, gift baskets, themed banners to candles, frames and sports items, you can find so many awesome little trinkets to make into a memorable memento of wildly awesome trip. The trade-off: nothing is really cheap. But I wouldn't expect anything less from a glitzy gift shop. THE LOWDOWN A cutesy, kitschy boutique gift shop to bring back a NOLA themed memento.
