The fragrance making class was an awesome date night experience for my girlfriend and I's anniversary. Bella was super knowledgeable about all the different scents which made the whole process a lot easier to go through. She gave us the perfect ratios of each scent oil and also good suggestions on which ones paired well together. The whole environment is very inviting and relaxing and it almost felt like we were just hanging out with a friend while we made our fragrances. I was honestly a bit scared that I wouldn't be a fan of any scents and not be able to make something I wanted but that flew right out of the door immediately. There's a huge variety of woody, sweet, oriental and floral scents which give great options for anyone regardless of their taste in colognes or perfumes. I would 100% do this again or try the candle making class and without a doubt got my money's worth and then some. read more

I'm so glad I found Thee Candle Lab! I wanted to create my own scent because I was tired of the same old fragrances. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by the coolest person; Bella! She was super knowledgeable and patient with me since this was my first DIY workshop. I told her I wanted a scent that captured nature, the ocean, and a touch of warmth, and she helped me find the perfect blend. I went with a light grey vessel and sky blue wax, and it smells exactly how I imagined. I named it "Blue Timber." Thank you, Bella, for your awesome guidance and amazing service! I'm already looking forward to coming back next time to build my own cologne! read more

Stumbled upon this place for a team building/bonding activity with my group of educators. This location just opened this past weekend and I could not have been happier with the experience! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted and was told how the process would go and what it entailed. From getting your own lab coat to act as a scientist (such a cute idea), to choosing the jar your candle will be placed in, to smelling an assortment of scents to match your personality, to choosing the color of the candle you'd like. I mean, this place has it all! The owners Amy and Bella were truly exceptional and made the entire experience amazing! The studio itself was clean and well maintained. Great space for a group outing for a nice and relaxing time. They also go bridal showers, baby showers, etc. I definitely recommend this place! read more

We each chose our own vessel and scent. Needless to say - this was our first experience with candle making and it was a blast! I would highly recommend visiting the Thee Candle Lab.
