Customer Reviews
Clip Da Wick
It was noted in an earlier review below that these candles emit a large amount of black soot. ANY candle (or oil lamp) will do this if the wick is longer than about 1/4 of an inch. I lit my Glass Jar candle after trimming the new wick to that length and found that it still smoked with a long flame. Blew it out and trimmed it to about 1/8-inch and the issue disappeared.
Trim the wick short; this fixes the issue.
These candles are exceptional.
mMmm.. archipelago candles
i love these candles….
altho this particular collection looks a little different from what i’ve originally purchased (from what i can tell, only the presentation… mine came in a basic glass container), archipelago candles in general make the best candles i’ve ever bought!
they’re very fragrant and a single candle (altho i’ve only purchased the larger ones, since they’re more bang for your buck) can fill up an entire room (and this old house has high ceilings!). another pleasant attribute is that they have long life spans. some candles don’t burn well, but these can burn for a few hours without literally melting to nothing. of course, you don’t want to leave them on all day, but they’re perfect for a romantic evening (for which i think pomegranite citrus is amazing), parties (yay, pineapple ginger), or even a pick-me-up while cleaning house (pink grapefruit- my fave!).
i was a little concerned with what one person wrote about the smoke that ruined his evening, but the worst i’ve ever had like that from these is just a little black emission when first lit… after that, it’s been nothing but delicious! besides, from what i’ve read, most soy candles don’t usually give off much of a toxic anything, anyway.
(but i recommend, if anything like his situation occurs, to, obviously, extinguish the candle, and return it to the place of purchase.)
oh, and my reason for giving these candles for 4 stars is that, as you can see, they’re a little pricey (and it’s literally like burning money, no? hehe). but, you get what you pay for!!

Smells great even when not burning
These candles have a strong and wonderful smell. Mine has lasted well beyond what other brands of candles last and still makes my home smell sensual and welcoming.
