Expert Reviews

Julie Mathers

I LOVE this candle! The scent is beautiful, lasts and commands a room, in a great way. The candle is long lasting and burns well. The packaging is well thought through and they support local businesses and artists which is also great to support the local economy.

Kirsten Junor

I like the cardboard box and the packaging with flowers. I do like the refill option. I also love that they are using local artists for their designs and sourcing natural toxic-free ingredients.

Ellie Degraeve

I’m impressed with every part of this product. From unboxing it, to the natural feel designs and scent. The candle refill is clever and reduces emissions and waste. The cherry on the pie was for me is that the candle is made with essential oils. It has not stopped burning in our home! From supporting local to standing up for indigenous cultures, this brand sets a new bar for ethical and sustainable business.
