Birthday cake smells sooo good almost like you can eat it. Sun washed linen light but very potent makes your whole house smell clean.

What can I say? These candles burn all day and fill my home with an aroma that I haven’t smelled from any other candle. My favorite is the Blue (Men’s Type) candle, it gives off a clean masculine smell without being nauseating and unbearable.

Just received my candles a couple days ago and I’m already really impressed! ☺️ I purchased the birthday cake and strawberries and champagne scents and absolutely love both! The candles are very fragrant and leave each room smelling so good. A nice bold candle is always in order, and these do the trick. I am also very impressed with the special care and attention the owner/company provided me soon after my purchase. I’ll definitely be back soon!

I would absolutely recommend Candles of Essence. The service is always fast and professional. You can tell the candles are made with love because the smell is long lasting and lingers throughout the area. My personal favorites are watermelon lemonade, clean linen && mango papaya. However, whatever scent you may choose, I’m sure you will not be disappointed. ☺️

Let me first state how apprehensive I was in the size of the candles being potent as promised. Lord was I so WRONG! My main concern was the scent being flavorful and lastly a long while. She hit it out the park. I purchased 6 candles and so happy I did! I am on my third one, I have the love spell burning in my kitchen currently. I am in my office working and can smell it from here ( I have a 2100 sq ft home)the wicks burns nice and slow .I just cut the old off from the day prior and light them up for another day of long lasting fragrance. I will definitely be a returning customer. I was provided quality customer service and professionalism. It was a pleasure meeting you and purchasing your products! See you soon!!

Absolutely love the candles, wax melts and all purpose spray. I have candles of various scents in my home and I love how quickly they fill up any room they are lit in without being too over bearing, The scent is just enough to grab you attention and make you smile. I love that the candle are soy and that you receive a candle and wick care card with your order to help you get the most out of your candles. No one has ever done that for me before. I won't be buying candles or wax melts from anyone but Candles of Essence ever again,

I was watching Tik Tok one day and I came across her video. I immediately sent a msg saying I wanted to support her business because I like to see Queens win, and a opportunity to support a black owned business. She was so professional I msg her and she got back with me right away and I told her to expect my order, she responded quickly . I put in my order and she sent me a video, that made my day. I came home from work and was excited that my candles were here in 2 days. I figured out how to send her a video. I love the smell of all the candles. I burned each one that night. I already told her I would be placing many more orders. I was truly impressed by the quality & professionalism. I would recommend Candles of Essence to anyone. 🥰❤️

Love, love, love my candles and body scrub!!! Fragrances are AMAZING! I have used sooo many body scrubs but nothing compares to how the new pomegranate lemonade makes my skin feel.
