Village Candle Black Bamboo Large Glass Apothecary Jar, Scented Candle, 21.25 oz., Black

I first found this candle at Wal-Mart yrs ago. It is no longer available, so I was thrilled to see it on Amazon. Of course, it's more expensive than Wal-Mart. But I expected that.Pros:The scent is like a sensual, expensive unisex cologne. It's not overwhelming, yet it gives a room a classy and upscale fragrance.The 2 wicks burn evenly, which is important to using the entire candle.The fragrance used is not too much in the candle. Using too much fragrance oil will make the candle turn smokey and make the scent smell burnt.** You can tell if there's too much fragrance oil in the jar by looking to see "wet or slick" places scattered around inside. It will also look"frozen" in some places.The wicks do not slide back down into the candle. They don't bend over when burning, making one or both wicks unable to be lit again.It can be put on Subscribe and Save.*"Please be sure to trim the wicks after each burn. This will ensure the candle doesn't smoke when lit again. A decent wick trimmer can be found on Amazon. I also recommend a bendable lighter. This will make lighting the candle when it gets low easy.I have no reservations in recommending this wonderful candle.Cons:The price.This candle will be cost prohibited for some people, especially if they aren't Prime members.

AllTime favoriteHas a nice smell it more on the Manley sideI can have it burning all day and it scent up the entire room

I realize scent is very subjective, but based on the reviews I read I was not expecting it to smell completely like men's colonge (Drakar) - not sure where the bamboo is!?!? However, the candle itself lasts a long time and is a good value - I just wanted a scent that was more "fresh".

Smells great.

Smells amazing!!!

I originally bought this at my local grocery store as a birthday gift for my mom last year. We both loved it so much that when it was time to get a new one, we were disappointed to learn that the store no longer sells this brand. Next stop? Amazon, of course; and it was the same price as in store. This is one of the best smelling candles I've ever owned. It's not too strong or overpowering. Our house is approximately 1,200 sq ft, and this candle reaches every room when we burn it in the kitchen.

I LOVE the scent of this candle, but agree with other reviewers that it doesn’t seem to be quite as strong as it had once been. I have been buying this scent in stores for years. When I couldn’t find it recently, I ordered one from Amazon and was disappointed in how weak the scent was.The original scent may have been overpowering in a small house or apartment, but I liked to light it in the basement, and have it fill the entire house with that great scent. It is a manly, kind of musky scent, but I love it - especially in cold weather.
