Scented jar candles - my choice

November 4, 2007

I have to admit that scented jar candles are among my favorite type of candles. I love the fact that these candles travel anywhere – to hotel rooms, to vacation homes, to guest rooms. Anywhere I travel, I can add instant scent and coziness in the amount of time it takes to light a match. The fact that the candles are in jars helps to keep the fragrance contained and therefore all the more powerful when the candles are lit. Plus, the handy jars can be used for many practical things once the candle is burnt out. In my estimation, scented jar candles are simply the best value for my money.

Having said that, though, I have to admit that I like some scented jar candles the best. My current choices include Archipelago Botanicals Ambiant Jar Candle, which combines the intoxicating scents of avocado, teakwood and amber. Made from the best ingredients, this candle features 60 hours burn time. The 4.5″ tall and 3.5″ wide candle fits in most places but is small enough to travel well. I also love the fact that this scented jar candle is made from essential oils and natural fragrances. I like knowing that I’m not burning toxic chemicals in my home.

I also currently love the Herve Gambs Pomme D’Amour Noel Candle. The scent is completely reminiscent of Christmas, but the candy apple fragrance is also delicious for fall. I also adore the ruby red glass jar. When lit, the jar imparts a wonderful glow and the candle jar also looks stunning in my home. The Herve Gambs Pomme D’Amour Noel Candle is also a main choice for me because it burns for 60 hours and measures 3″ wide by 4″ tall. The wax even contains anti-tobacco ingredient.

Another favorite of mine is the Manuel Canovas Fleur de Coton Candle, with its intoxicating scent of linden flower, white-thorn and morning dew. The clean crisp fragrance is ideal year-round. The Manuel Canovas Fleur de Coton Candle comes in a frosted glass jar, which is emblazoned with the MANUEL CANOVAS monogram. It looks so stunning in my home that people assume I have spent a small fortune on this candle. I love the fact that the Manuel Canovas Fleur de Coton candle comes with a glamorous gold lid and burns 60 hours.

Another favorite of mine is the Jimmy Belasco Soy Absinthe Candle. With notes of lime peel, patchouli, amber, lavender, and sandalwood, the Jimmy Belasco Soy Absinthe Candle is heavenly and it is not too feminine, either. I have given this candle to male friends with great success – they loved it! The Jimmy Belasco Soy Absinthe candle has a “pure soy” wax formula that only uses two all-natural ingredients. The candle is made from soy beans and vegetable oil. I love the fact that this candle is so pure and non-toxic and I adore the simple glass container, decorated only with Jimmy’s signature. The candle burns for 50+ hours and measures 3.5″ by 2.75.” I have also found less problems with soot and smoke with this candle, which I love, since I hate trimming the wick and fussing over candles.
