I arrived here today and the owner showed me around. This place is really cool and owned by a guy…read morewho has been in this business over 20 years. The place has a wide selection of different scented candles. They sell a particular candle that they donate the proceeds to Ukrainian people. I definitely will be coming back. I'd much rather support a local business over Amazon all the time.

Outstanding!! The best candles I've ever gotten!! The quality is superb and long lasting. I'm so…read morehappy with my candle. The scent I recently got is Lavender/Vanilla and it smells fantastic. The scent totally fills up my apartment, making it smell so good. The people that work there are so nice. They go above and beyond to get me my perfect candle. I will be buying more and more in the future. I highly recommend Timothy Jay Candles for all your candle needs. You won't be disappointed!!

This is one of the chain of House of Intuition. They all have a style that tends to be the complete…read moreopposite of one's typical esoteric, occult, New-Agey place: instead of clutter we have minimalism. Clean, white walls. Carefully packaged stock. Plenty of room to navigate. While HOI is not my first place to buy things like incense, I will say that what I'm looking for is easy to find. And, depending on your choices, things are very reasonably priced: five dollars for a twenty pack of incense, for example. This store, like its sister stores, does not have the vast selection of esoteric shops like Liberate Emporium or Psychic Eye, but it serves a purpose. And the staff have always been pleasant.

House of Intuition on Melrose used to be my go to for my Witchy needs. But they've drastically…read moredownsized and they just have less and less inventory every time I go. Very sad as their store used to be chock full of Witchy goodness. Now it's pretty sparse. I did manage to leave with 2 chime candle holders and a Magnetite stone. Parking can be difficult but that's Melrose for ya.

I learned something: Their scents rotate!…read more Last time I was here, I bought a bunch of "Los Angeles" scents to give away as Christmas gifts to out of town family. But they don't have all the different products for that scent anymore. Makes sense --- since they now also have a bunch of new ones that I am excited to try like the Bergamot Shiso and their Enoki Cedar. Parking on the street in front of the shop is difficult, but I was able to find one two blocks away. Got some steps in. Their Teakwood & Tobacco is one of my favorites and I got some refill. Glad they are open weekday. No crowd. Friendly staff. I love how they have a big airy space so the scents don't become overwhelming. I also love how they organized and displayed their products -- logical.

I was a little overwhelmed while trying to figure out what to buy, but I took my time to scope out all of the different scents. I'm pretty satisfied with the two candles that I ended up getting and I appreciate how carefully they were each paper-wrapped! Hopefully I'll be back again to get something for myself! It's such a cute little shop. Thanks again for the wonderful service!

This place is a gem haven. The owner Liz is a 10 in customer experience. Every time we called to…read moreget info and book our visit, she was warm, friendly and so accommodating. Once you arrive, you will be blown away by this studio. It's gorgeous! She has the best taste in gift items and pots to make your custom candle.

My daughter surprised me for my birthday by taking me to Pacific Oaks Candle Studio to design and…read moreassemble our very own custom candles. From the minute we walked in, we knew we were in for a treat. The space was beautifully designed by the owner, Liz, who was a soft-spoken, sweetheart of a human being. She walked us step by step through the process of creating our candles from selecting the vessel it goes in, to selecting our scents, to assembling it. My daughter and I have never experienced anything like it. We enjoyed ourselves from beginning to end and left feeling as though we'd spent the day at the spa. We were both super relaxed and smiling from ear to ear. I cannot recommend this one of a kind experience enough for anyone looking for something fun, relaxing and memorable to do for a mother/daughter day, date-night, bachelorette party or just because.

I prepaid and scheduled a candle making party for a group of four to celebrate a birthday. We…read morearrived early for our appointment, only to find the store completely closed. The owner of the adjacent hat store (who shares the space with Topanga Mercantile) kindly called and texted the owner on our behalf -- but received no response. I also called the store number and emailed, but got no reply. My friends and I waited outside for 30 minutes before finally leaving. This was supposed to be a fun birthday outing, and instead, we were left standing in a parking lot, disappointed and frustrated. As of today (a full day later), I still haven't heard a word from the owner. I've since contacted my credit card company to dispute the charge. Absolutely unacceptable customer service. I feel like I've been scammed. Be very cautious if you're thinking of booking anything here.

Each nook of the store offers a different vibe with the Candle Bar displaying their hand made candles and aromas. Antiques, instruments, functional art and furniture adorn this fascinating shop. I got to engage one of the owners, Tom, in a fascinating conversation as my camera eye led me around the shop. I picked up some gifts and a candle that I burn often in my place. Soothing and sensual, take a drive out to the country, explore Topanga and walk through Downtown Topanga next to the Post Office where you can find some more bliss for your eyes and nose in this delightful store.

I am such a big fan of the beautiful candles sold at this store. They're very high quality and immediately make my house smell amazing and feel cozy. If you're not a candle person, the diffusers from this store are another great alternative. I have these in my bathroom and they do a great job of making the area smell so nice. The specialty body products at this store are also wonderful and I love the lavender bath salts to help with my muscle aches and relaxation routine. I've gifted so many of the body creams and lotion sets to my friends and family who all then ask me where I purchased the gifts! I then recommend they shop at Aroma Scent and go there too. During these tough times, I really love supporting small, local businesses. This one is such a hidden gem and the service is incredible. I feel so welcomed and attended to in the store, and I love going back to the store. I'm so glad it opened again after a brief break due to COVID. Come here and you won't be disappointed. I also just bought a new diffuser and enjoying this new addition to my work from home office.

The owners are incredibly kind and welcoming people. They did for me a tarot reading and helped me choose a candle for attracting money. I also bought a protection stone for myself. Great value for the price. The whole experience felt very personal and thoughtful. This shop feels like a museum, I'm swearing, that's true, so much atmosphere, knowledge, and beautiful details everywhere. I will definitely be coming back whenever I have questions. They also offer classes and workshops, which is amazing. Thank you, Helga and Eugene, for such a wonderful experience!
