When I requested a refund they said because the product had been used they couldn't accept (of course they've been used, I attempted to burn the candles, which ultimately wouldn't burn). Also said they 'couldn't guarantee the quality' because they didn't manufacture them. Do not sell product you can't stand behind! I was shocked and disappointed by the terrible customer service here. Wouldn't recommend. I will continue supporting The Boston Tea Room where they run an exceptional business and treat customers with respect!

The value is worth it, you get 2 free refills of the candle you made and they do it all for you! Service was excellent, she was super kind and energetic and knowledgeable! One thing I wish we were able to do was heat the wax ourselves so we get the FULL experience but other than that everything was perfect.

When you arrive, you pick your candle vase which varies in prices from $30 to about $60. You'll pay the difference from the cost of the class depending on which one you pick. After you've found your spot at the table, your instructor will take you to the scent wall. You smell different candles and down the scents you want to mix. Back at your table you'll test, then mix your scents, then make your candle which is all clearly explained by the instructor. Your candle has to set so you're unable to take it with you, so you have to pick it up later or the next day. For those who live far, they do offer shipping for an additional fee. I enjoyed hearing about the owners entrepreneurship journey and why she opened this place. I overall had a great time. The location is easy to find the decor is nice and the customer service is top tier. I'll definitely come back. I highly recommend the experience.

Interesting beginning to the story you say? It is.... please read on. My girlfriend gave me a gift card a while back to Yankee Candle and although I love BBW candles, I was intrigued by a candle my girlfriend included in her gift. Long story short, I had a $25 gc and it was burning a hole in my pocket.... er, pursue. Upon arrival to the store, I was super stoked by the halloween selection already available! Hubby and I had to smell tons of candles and check out all the goods. After much discussion, we finally decided on a quirky resin pumpkin. When we were checking out, I swiped my gift card. ... only to find nothing from the card came off the bill. I handed the cashier my gift card that has never been used.... she swiped it a couple times and she said the account was closed- super unfortunate considering there should have been $25 on the card. No need to worry the cashier or cause a stink, I thanked her but left the store with nothing in hand. Subsequently, I called the number on the back of the card and they also told me the account was closed. So, I ended up emailing Yankee Candle (I will post my email soon) and ultimately, they were not any help AND they are rather insulting. They only told me to call the store. After a couple of calls to the store, they confirmed it was a system glitch and offered for me to come back to the store (don't worry it is about an hour away) and pick up my merchandise. The store was helpful and accommodating but based on the horrible customer service from corporate, I won't be back. My go to store will be Bath and Body Works again.....

This was such a fun experience! I came here with my girlfriends to celebrate my friend's birthday…read more When you enter the shop, you are given a clipboard and are directed to start smelling all the fragrances...over 80!! You write down all of your favorites and then narrow it down your list to the top 4 scents you think smell best together to create your own signature candle. You can also make a reed defuser, room spray, or soap as an alternative option. Before pouring the wax and mixing your scents, you choose from their selection of jars, ranging in price around $40-60. After creating your candle and naming your scent, it takes around 90-120 minutes for it set. I think the experience could be elevated with a few things: An option to customize your candle with glitter, color of wick, color of wax, ability to select a cute label with your scent's name or create one, even a label maker would do the trick. They have some cute vessels, but I would love to see more variety in different styles, colors, and sizes. I asked the owner, Marleen what ingredients were in the fragrance oils and she couldn't really give me a complete answer other than they are not 100% essential oils but they're synthetic and safe because they don't buy them from overseas. hmmm.... With that said, I'm sure they contain toxins like phthalates and ethyl methoxycinnamates. Reputable brands of oils will clearly label their products and disclose all the components. I try to use scents, body care, and household cleaners free from toxins so this is a little concerning not knowing what chemicals are in the candle. I'm sensitive to irritants which aggravate my asthma and also give me headaches. I just wish i knew for sure what was in this magical potion of oils we mixed. Overall, I had a fun time and made some great memories. It's a unique activity for a date night or group outing with friends that all ages can enjoy.

This was such a fun experience!! Good for groups and date night!…read more Checking in was a breeze and they got us set up quickly. They give you a card to write down your top scents. We started by smelling several scents, they have 90 scents to smell - I skipped some that weren't appealing like bacon and old books LOL Be sure to grab you a bag of coffee beans to cleanse your scent palette. I don't want to spoil the process so I won't tell you everything! So just go ahead and make a reservation, the fee goes towards your reservation at the end. I'm going to wait 2 weeks before light my custom candle so that I get the best scent payout. It's worth the money. You can make a candle, room diffuser, and/or room spray. I'll be back to make a diffuser.

On top of it all the service that is provided is superb. The store owner is very knowledgeable and friendly. She helps with selection of items for those who are indecisive like myself. What is also unique about this shop is the many classes and services that are provided. Like sound bath related to the moons or based on grounding your chakras. Definitely great for relaxing. They also offer bone throwing readings and even have space rentals for those who are wanting to host at a slot for tarot readings, meetings, metaphysical classes of all kinds. Very accommodating space. Definitely recommend even if it is a 20 minute drive! This small business is worth the drive.

You'll find candles for almost any ailment, predicament or situation. Baby mama drama, legal trouble, help winning the lottery, etc. Some of them are printed on the jar but other signs are taped onto the jar (a little low-rent for my tastes). Room for improvement includes pricing all the candles. I picked one up without a price tag and it was $8 when I got to the register, when I saw many others priced around $6 or $7. It was a gift for a friend so not a big deal. Discount Candles is a really fun shop whether you believe the hullabaloo or not. They offer a wide variety of candles, incense and oils to choose from, and they've got a large (free!) parking lot to the right of the store for your convenience.
