My bf and I bought one after wine tasting and it was worth it. The prices are not too bad and they are customizable too for your "special occasions." The store owner was so nice, we wanted to look at other stores and since it was hot, we left our candle at that store until we were done. Get a candle, guys! Support local business!

It has a well-organized layout and the employee there the day we visited was friendly and helpful which contributed to a pleasant shopping experience. I am very particular about candles due to my extreme sensitivity to strong scents. Circle E Candles had scents that weren't too over powering for me. I purchased two small sized candles in scents: orange patchouli and bird of paradise! One of my friends who is a candle enthusiasts purchased 6! She was very pleased.

Although the candle smells great, the wick is TERRIBLE! It puts off a lot of soot.

These candles smell so wonderfully - the scent oils they use are the best ever! When our church life group meets at our house, the first thing they ask is "where do we get these candles and they smell wonderful"! And of course, we let them know about Marlowe Candle Company and how they too, can purchase and receive the best candles in the business. Being an accountant has it's ax's to grind, but I wish I could convey in this review how much we love these candles and how wonderful they actually are, plus they are reasonable in cost too!

Their candles are amazing, and it felt great supporting such kind people and a small business. The owners were incredibly friendly, and we loved connecting over our military ties. It's so nice knowing there are still genuinely good people in the world! I'm absolutely obsessed with the Bluebonnet candle -- it perfectly captures that Texas spring feeling and made the perfect souvenir from our trip. We'll definitely be ordering online when we need to restock. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area!

In the back room are discounted candles that don't appear to be old scents, but for $3 instead of the $5.95 for the ones in the front room-yes! please! Quite a few scents and the most darling packaging-for $23.95 you can get a big candle in a glass jar that burns for over 40hours!

Unfortunately, the candle wick was not long enough to actually burn the candle (poor quality). I was unable to use the candle. A waste of $22.00.

The moment you walk in, you can feel it--this isn't just a shop, it's a living, breathing creation. Every shelf, every scent, every thoughtfully placed detail feels intentional and curated with a level of care that's honestly rare to come by these days. If you're drawn to apothecary, the esoteric, the intellectual, the beautifully strange--this place is a dream. Not in a trendy, surface-level way... but in a deep, rooted, soul-nourishing kind of way. And Wade... You can tell this space is a labor of love. Wade hasn't just built a store--he's created an experience. One that honors knowledge, craft, and curiosity. There's a quiet brilliance to it. Nothing feels rushed or mass-produced. It feels studied. Respected. Lived in. You don't just browse here--you linger. You explore. You ask questions. You notice things you didn't expect to notice. It invites you to slow down, to connect, to be present in a way most retail spaces simply don't. It's rare to find a place that feels both intellectually stimulating and energetically grounding at the same time--but somehow, this one does exactly that. San Marcos is lucky to have it. Truly. If you appreciate intention, depth, and beauty in all its forms... go. Take your time. Let yourself get lost in it. Some places you shop at. This one, you experience.
