Review of Scented Soy Jar Candles from CandleMart for ONLY 2.99!

About Christina's CandleMart Review:

She has reviewed 3 scented soy jar candles below from CandleMart.com. The soy jar candles are 13oz Mason Jars and cost ONLY $2.99!  The burn time for each candle is approx. 100 hours.

I found CandleMart.com through Candlefind and decided to buy some candles just to see what this company was all about. CandleMart has a different assortment of scented candles but you have to search for them. Their website can also be a little confusing but they have an interesting selection and great sales worth checking out. When I saw some scented candles for $2.99 a piece, I was very skeptical...who wouldn't be? So, creature of habit that I am, I ordered my usual 12.

I had a great shopping experience with this company. I placed my order and it shipped the following day so I received it in less than a week. That is very fast service. Shipping is a pet peeve of mine, I want my order in a timely manner and I don't think I should have to pay for it either. CandleMart does not offer free shipping but since the candles I ordered were on mega sale, I didn't mind and figured for 3 bucks a candle, who cares?

FYI… I’m not sure how long these candles will be available so if you’re interested, I wouldn’t wait.

Scent Review #1:

Scent strength:  Medium

What did my Orange Creamsicle Candle look like?

I am pleasantly surprised by this candle.  The candle style is a simple mason jar, the label on the front is very cute and attractive. The jar is narrow so there is only 1 wick.  The wax color is a creamy pale orange.  They don’t tell you on their website but the label on the jar says it’s soy wax.  (candle can be seen in photo above.)

What did my Orange Creamsicle Candle smell like?

When I opened the jar, the scent strength seemed average, not super strong but strong enough to smell what the fragrance was.  It had the classic Orange Vanilla smell but sweeter and much creamier to me.  I lit my usual two and waited to see how long it would take to fill my great-room. I would say it took not even 15 minutes.  The scent is really creamy and sweet so if you like those two ingredients, this candle has your name written on it.

I’ve burned my Orange Creamsicle candle for 3 days straight now and it’s burning fairly clean.  The scent strength has been consistent and has not changed at all.  It is also burning slower than I expected which is another pleasant surprise.  Not bad for a candle that only cost me a little over 4 dollars including shipping.  I highly recommend this candle for the scent and incredible price.

Scent Review #2:

Scent:  Blueberry Swirl

Size & Type:  13oz Mason Jar

Cost:  $2.99

How did it burn:  Average, it is leaving a little bit of residue but not much.

Scent strength:  Medium+

What did my Blueberry Swirl Candle look like?

The candle style is a simple mason jar, the label on the front is cute and attractive.  The jar is narrow with only one wick which is fine as it did burn evenly leaving little residue on the jar.  The wax color is a creamy cobalt blue.  They don’t tell you on their website but the label on the jar says it’s soy wax.

I’m not really a Blueberry fan but for those of you who are… you would enjoy this candle.  The price is also out of this world at $2.99 a jar.  If you wanted to splurge and buy more than you normally would, this would be the time.

What did my Blueberry Swirl Candle Smell Like?

When I opened the jar, the Blueberry scent was pretty bold and once lit, fills up a room fast.  I’m not a Blueberry expert and don’t have another candle to compare it with, but it smells pretty yummy to me.  I found myself enjoying this candle the more I burned it. To give you an idea of how far the scent traveled, friends who came over would tell me they could smell Blueberries walking up my driveway.  The scent strength is also consistent after burning it a few times so the quality of the candle seems okay.  That amazes me for the price.  My overall opinion… great candle, killer deal!
