Top positive review

Cozy and lovely

Reviewed in the United States on August 6, 2014

I love this line of Paddywax candles, but this is probably my favorite scent in the Library Collection. I like these small tinned candles because they feel vintage and romantic, but also because they're easy to travel with. It's amazing how much a familiar scent can help you feel at home out on the road. (But of course, be cautious with open flame and all that.) I find many other scented candles cloying, and some even give me a headache, but these are high quality and smell wonderful and natural rather than chemical or artificial like some other scented candles. They're a wonderful gift for book lovers — consider giving with your favorite book by the author in question!

The candle smells great but is very small! Expensive candle to be so small.

This candle smells so good

I have bought this candle two times now because I just love the way it smells. I find it delicious and also adorable. However, it burns down really quickly and is kind of expensive for this size of candle. It is great for gifts but hard to use as a staple in your home.

Oh my goodness, I bought the Jane Austen version as a gift and it smelled so good I had to order another for myself! It’s also bigger than I thought. It’s nearly the size of a dollar bill. Very cute label. It will look perfect on my bookshelf!

The throw on this candle is AMAZING. I'm also really really pleased with the way this Jane Austin candle smells, it has a fresh cut 'green' hint to it that prevents it from smelling overly sweet or cheap. The flowers and freshness smell beautiful, and in such an afordable candle. This will be a staple for my girls rooms.

Jane Austen/Louisa May Alcott candles

The Jane Austen candle smells amazing! I can picture Darcy handing flowers to Elizabeth and Edmund and Fanny strolling through the gardens at the Parsonage. The scent is soft but it spreads over a large area. It’s just lovely. I’m sad it only comes in travel tins, because I would absolutely buy larger candles in this scent.

The Louisa May Alcott candle smells nice, but has a super sweet undertone that is a bit cloying. I’m not a huge fan.

Lovely scent!

LOVE the scent of this candle! I wanted something I could take with me on a trip to help me relax, and this will be it! It's definitely a bit expensive, so I likely won't be buying repeatedly, but for a once or twice a year thing, it's great!

Scent, great. Throw, mediocre for bedroom size room. Took on a trip and candle was done after 3 uses. Not suitable to burn for more than an hour or so at a time.
