Way more than just a candle store. It has lots of Salem themed merch, plus cute items, books, decorations, and some really fun oddities throughout. My friend even left with a taxidermy beetle, and I had a great time just looking through everything. It is definitely a fun place to browse and explore. read more

This is such a cute and affordable store! They sell candles, tarot cards, candle melts, and sage, to name a few things. We had to stand in line to get in, but the line moved quickly. About a 5 minute wait, if that. I purchased a 9oz "Night Garden" candle, which smells so good. I also bought a mini torch sage, matches, and two incense matches in French vanilla. The ladies were very helpful and polite, they answered all of our questions and offered further assistance. I definitely recommend making this one of your stops if you're in the Salem area. read more

Loved this place, got a new Salem beanie. I could browse the book section and tarot cards for hours. Will be added to the shop/stop list for next time. The service is great and friendly. read more

I discovered this shop when I visited in 2018 and I've followed online since. It's hard to order scents you haven't smelled in person but I've always had success. My particular favorite scent was Black Apple which they no longer sell. Stopped in on our latest trip and got some travel size scents of two candles and an awesome seance print! read more

The moment I step into Witch City Wicks, I swear a little bit of magic sparks inside me. The scent alone is enough to enchant you, but it's the charming mix of candles, home goodies, and pocket-sized treasures that keep me coming back. Every corner feels like it's curated with love and intention. I never know if I want to work here, live here, or just keep coming back forever. Pure Salem magic in a shop--I leave happier every time. read more

I stopped here to find a candle that would remind me of the scents of Salem. I found the candle October rust and it perfectly smells like the air around Salem and the incenses of all the little shops. I cannot wait to burn the candle and feel transported back to Salem. read more

Completely honest- I saw magnets and convinced John to go in- he is a huge magnet collector. Meanwhile- I got to go into another shop! This was one of the last shops I bought from in Salem! Great fun- different product selection too compared to a lot of the surrounding shops. Love all the candles! read more

So, I usually never do this, like we all have bad days but my friend and I were really upset by an interaction we had with the lady working today. And I usually love this place, I still wanna come in here, get my favorite candles, and some of the amazing art and hanging glass items that I've loved. And usually the people working are really chill, I also try to be as kind as I can be cause I've worked in retail and food service and I know it's not the most fun way to spend your day. But it doesn't give anyone the excuse to treat a customer like they're stupid for asking a question. The girl today, after my friend and I asked what exactly a "faux match" was, told us that there were these crazy devices called our phones, that act as little computers, and we could just go and find out what a faux match was, on our phones. Like dude come on. And before this, she had the fun idea to tell us that she just worked there and she didn't know what half the stuff was, and we should just look it up. Dude I'm not stupid, I know I can look something up on my phone, but as someone that works at a store that sells these items, you probably should know what they are when you're selling them, the customer isn't immediately going to Google lens the item and look through a bunch of descriptions to try and figure out what it is. Plus, come on, it's not like we asked an insane or stupid question, even if we did, it's not a lot to just say, hey I'm sorry, I don't know or, I'll ask somebody to give you a better answer. Being a nice person doesn't cost anything, being a jerk however, does give you bad karma. So think about that next time. And please, don't treat customers like they're stupid. It's mean, and really unnecessary. If you hate your job that much, find another one, tbh I'd love to work at that shop and hang around among super dope gothic decor all day, but maybe that's just me. I'm honestly kind of bummed because I'm going to go by there now and not feel comfortable going in, so there's that. read more

What a cute place! So many of the "witchy" stores in Salem feel like they were designed for tourists, but Witch City Wicks feels more homey and calm. I'm not a fan of some of their regular scents, I find them to be a little overwhelming. But I can't recommend enough the holiday scents. Black Bat is the perfect perfume, cinnamon-y but not too spicy. The Fright Night candle smells like an actual carnival, no exaggeration. Takes me back to going to the Topsfield Fair late at night. Definitely should be on your list if you're planning a trip to Salem! read more

We loved this shop that specializes in locally made, small batch, hand-poured soy candles. The scents were amazing, and of course, many were spooky themed given the location. Fall was especially a great time to visit for those other gals like me who can't get enough pumpkin spice and Halloween themed goods! We purchased pumpkin spice and 'Bite Me' candles. The latter smells just like fruit punch! Fun! Lemon rosemary was a great one for spring and there was a coffee one for when I needed a jolt of the senses. We also picked up some travel tin candles to take along for Ouija in the cemetery. In addition to awesome candles that come in a variety of scents and sizes, they also sell really cool prints for framing, lip balms, stuff for the modern witch, like sage and dried floral bunches too. They also carry really cool bar accessories! This is going on our must-stop list for the next time we're in town. We could've stay and smelled forever! It makes a great place to stop for non cheesy, useful souvenirs! Service was friendly. Prices were fine. Love everything!! read more

The lady in the front was so fun and friendly ... I love my pumpkin head and apple wax burners from here ! I go every year! Love you guys

Great selection of Halloween inspired candles plus other fascinating accessories. The store smells amazing and the staff very friendly. I liked that each candle display had the scent description attached. read more

Heavenly magic. Their selection of candles is ridiculous. WOW... I loved Pumpinhead so much. My friend loves Poison Apple. Check out their store or online. And their roll on perfumes were the best I have personally tried. I purchased one called Church that was lovely. I plan to buy more. They last all day. The saleslady was so nice and the place felt very inviting. I went to a few other similar spots but it felt stuffy and overbearing. Witch City Wicks is a must to stop in and enjoy the smells. read more

The best candles! And they curate the best gift items ever. I have so much stuff from here and it's def my top 5 favorite Salem shops!! read more

I love Witch City Wicks, they have great products that last long and are locally made. I can always find a gift for everyone in my life. The staff is awesome too. read more

My wife and I are addicted to their candles, especially their Christmas ones! They have a great Christmas one that actually smells like REAL pine, not that fake pine scent you get with most products. My wife loved it so much she burned it down to nothing (oops!). Hearth is another favorite of ours that we burn in the winter to replicate the smell of a real fireplace, and my mom is in love with the Wassail candle we gave her for Christmas. They have another really nice one that smells like being in a leather shop (mmmm, sexy). None of the scented candles smell chemically or fake, nor are they too overpowering. I sometimes have scent sensitivities and have had no problems with their products (though a few of the floral ones bothered my mom, so make sure to test them first if you have an allergy or sensitivity). The shop itself is well decorated, very cool and withcy looking, and the ladies working there were friendly and fun. They also let my mother bring her dog in with her, so of course we loved them even more. read more

The candles smell so good. I am Obsessed with Seance, I also bought the room/body spray. read more

Walking down the street you can almost miss this shop, however it is one of the best in Salem! Between the amazing scents (that you can get in candles, room sprays, or even roll on perfume) and the perfectly unique gifts this shop is dangerous for my wallet! read more

I've been a follower of this shop on Instagram for a while, but unless I can smell the scent in person, I don't buy candles or perfume online. So while in Salem, my friend, my partner and I stopped in. I'm so glad I made this shop a priority to visit during my short visit to the city. Visually stunning, with a dark grey/blue wall paint and the simple clean, earthy and yet, macabre decor, the shop reflected the type of candles they sell. I found the candle scent (Black Amber for the win) I wanted to take home, my partner found a solid cologne that drew him in and my friend was pining after a hand cream that smelled perfect for her. FYI: I can't seem to find their solid perfumes/colognes or hand cream online, I think they are only sold in the store itself. Right before we went to pay, I turned around to see wall artwork from another Instagram artist I follow (@death_follows) being featured in the store! Her work is beautiful. I snatched one up and we all left happy campers. I was really pleased to obtain two items i had been coveting in one location. Turns out, the shop owner and the woman who makes the wall plaques are sisters. :) After arriving home, I also learned that the shop had just opened, within one or two days of us visiting on the 3rd of June. I would of never known it. To see them have so much in stock, displayed in such a artistic atmosphere while receiving excellent customer service so quickly after they opened was awesome. I hope this store stays busy like it was when we visited. I look forward to visiting it in all my future Salem adventures. Be sure to check out the sister's work on ETSY, which you can obtain in Witch City Wicks. https://www.etsy.com/shop/deathfollows read more

What store doesn't open until 11am?!?!? Apparently this one doesn't and a few others in Salem. My parents and I stopped in here on our vacation and looked around. There was some cute items that were worth a second look. We had just left our hotel and were looking around town. My parents saw something they wanted but figured they would stop on the way back and purchase it so they didn't have to lug it around. Well it was closed. The whole time there it was closed after that and on our last day had a sign that said it didn't open until 11am. Well they lost a $100 sale because we weren't waiting around. We had to get on the road and head back to Philly. This store needs to reevaluate their business hours. I can only imagine what they lose in sales with their current hours. read more

I'm so happy to have finally visited this shop! Like the poster before me, I've been following Witch City Wicks on Instagram but was hesitant to order online because I'm SO picky with candles. A lot of candles can be overpowering, leave a fake chemical-like scent in the air, and leave me with a headache. Well, not these!!! They're very high quality, with such pleasant scents that didn't overwhelm me. It's obvious these handmade candles are made with love and attention! It was the first time I was able to smell EVERY candle in a shop, and leave feeling great! The owner was at the counter, and she was absolutely delightful! The shop itself has a great aesthetic - spacious and tasteful decor. I left with a big smile on my face. I am definitely a new loyal customer, and will order online until my next visit to Salem again! read more

Witch City Wicks - So many great choices! - Perfume Near Me - Salem, Massachusetts

The candles here smell so good I will only be getting witch City Wicks candles from this point on

Purchasing the item from their site was very easy. Shipping was quite quick as well. However, the kicker and reason for two stars, is that the candle did not smell like advertised. The shipping was $9.40 plus the $18 for the candle. The response was "Sorry to hear that you don't like your candle. If you'd like to return it you can ship it back to us and we'll refund you for the cost of the candle." I did not like the candle because it was NOT what I bought based on the description. Now, if I were to return the candle, I'd be out more money. The least they could do as their candle was not correct, would be pay for shipping back and also refund my money. read more

This is the cooooolest spot ever. It's gorgeous in there and, on top of that, you get to smell so many incredible candles. Spooky and sassy and the sweetest staff - yes! read more

Beautiful, tastefully decorated shop with a large assortment of scented candles, candle holders, and decor. Pumpkin Head is my favorite. Salem, is a close second. The women working the shop were friendly and even on a busy Saturday in October, we were able to shop and pay easily. read more

I went into this shop last week looking to find a candle that smelled pleasant but not too overpowering. I was so pleased! They have a good variety of scents in different sizes. I picked up a travel tin of "A Day at the Spa" and it was EXACTLY what I was hoping for. Clean, light scent that filled my loft condo! The lady at the counter was very friendly. I live close by and can definitely see this becoming an addiction ! read more

You love unique blended one of a kind scented home fragrances? Well this is a must stop shop! Set aside space for gifts & home use if traveling back to your homestead. Love the NIGHTFALL scent , reminds me of home. Not only does it come in a room spray , but the room spray doubles as a body spray!!!! Looking forward to purchasing from a far. Cheers - Until my next trip to Salem read more

Love this shop! Randomly stumbled upon it while walking around Salem and fell in love. Great selection of unique candles, reed diffusers, and other items. I didn't get her name, but the woman at the register was very helpful, nice, and welcoming. read more
