You know those places you go to that as you walk past you stop, then you turn around and go back just to go find out what that smell is?
This is one of those places.
It's a small corner store just as you get out of Town Hall train station and walk into the QVB. However, don't be disappointed by its size, the smell is all encompassing.
I will make a note here that these candles, oils, cremes and other beauty products are not cheap.
There is a reason for this, I swear.
It's because their products smell divine for hours after. The candles you pay $40 for a 300g but it goes for months and never once looses it's scent. Other candles you buy stop smelling nice by the time you burn it half way. Not so with these.
The 350g ones come in a beautiful glass jar with a lid to extinguish your flame. It's double wicked and will have your home smelling divine in under 5 minutes of lighting them.
Why the double wick? Well from what I gather a double wick means that it burns more evenly and that there's always a good liquid layer on top. It also burns all the way to the bottom so you don't waste any wax. A double wick also means that there's less soot and the scent, it releases the scent of the candles nicely.
So do what I do, treat yourself on occasion.
My next one will be the lemongrass. Or maybe the coconut and lime? Decisions! read more
