I got a order a few weeks ago, and there are two scents i totally fell in love with: Piggy Peanut Butter Cookies and Vanilla Pound Cake. The peanutbutter cookies...is HEAVEN. I've never smelled anything soooo good, authentic and yummy!!! I was blown away! I will be reordering this one! The next one is Vanilla Pound Cake. This was actually a free sample that came with my order (thank you Tarrah!) It was soo yummy. It was a little chunk of square wax, but it scented up the whole apartment for at least 5 hours, maybe more. I lost track lol. I will be reordering this one also. AWESOME company and customer service, highly recommended!

Update to my last posted review...The man from Pure Integrity just called me. My order is on the way, he said. YEAAA! They were not answering their phones because they were too busy, but are most definitely still in business. Will keep all posted and review my candles when I receive them, which, I think, will be soon, now.

I ordered candles based on the reviews on this site. I have never received them. There is no tracking number on my order page at Pure Integrity. I have tried and tried to call them, leaving messages, and have emailed them. I am trying again on Friday, 11 AM, their time, during customer hours, and getting no answers, still. Have they gone out of business, I wonder? Guess I will try to do a chargeback on my credit card. I am SO disappointed. I was really excited about trying them. I have tried calling all of their locations, always during business hours, with no answers at any number. Does anyone know if they are even still in business? (rated 2)

I don't use any other candles...these are the BEST! Their scent fills the whole house and anyone who comes into my house when one is burning always asks about them! Excellent customer service- I highly recommend them!

I've never had a bad experience with any PartyLite candle or accessory.

Each catalog has numerous scents, colors and accents to please any decor or taste. The pricing is average for what you're getting and they offer a very good hostess plan. The company has excellent customer service and warranties the products including the candles.

The candles burn slow and cool to the touch. I find the throw to be appropriate,(considering that you shouldn't expect a single candle to throw it's scent into more than one average room.)

After many years and burning candles from many different brands and sources, PartyLite is still my top pick and amazingly, my husband's also.

I also love that I can now order online through my rep's site and not have to wait to go to a party to replenish my stock.

I ordered 2 of the Heritage 16oz jars because of an email I received promoting these. They arrived fairly quickly and I was very impressed with how they were packaged but my enthusiasm soon faded after the second day of burning the first one!

I first lit the candle mid morning after receiving it and the smell was wonderful (Cedar Woods) although a bit less patchouli than I was hoping for. About 8pm, while watching TV my husband noticed that our air return vent was 'whistling' so he got up to check it out and OMG!!!...the filter was so black you could not see through it even holding it up to a light!

Didn't think much of it at first except that the house is 20+ yrs old and we had a new a/c and air-handler installed 2 months before and even though we replace the filters every month, maybe the new system is just so much stronger than the old one and it's 'cleaning' out the air ducks. He replaced the filter and it was a few hours later that we blew out the candle and went to bed.

Next am I get up, make coffee etc and light the candle but first have to clean the rim of the jar because it's so black with soot and of course, trim the wick...by 7pm the same thing is happening with the air return and it's filter!! Totally black and clogged again!!

Now, we've been candle lovers like forever and although I sold another brand that is our absolute favorite, we've also burned cheaper store bought varieties as well as other candle products purchased online, so I didn't at all think this was the cause of one lowly candle...no black smudge on the ceiling above the candle...??

I even called around to get estimate of having the air ducks cleaned professionally.

But here's the final synopsis... it WAS the candle! I didn't burn it at all for the next 24 hrs and the filter is fine! The candle jar is 2/3 burnt and sits with a totally black soot build up from the top of the wax to the rim of the jar which is just how GC will receive it returned along with the other one unburnt since I just don't trust them now.

Thankfully I figured this out before spending $450 to have the air ducts cleaned!

I LOVE these candles. Got my first one as a gift 2 years ago and haven't stopped buying yet. My favorites are apples & berries, coconut mango, pomegranite, raspberry violet, birds of paradise, citrus dream and many more. AWESOME candles. Give them a try...you won't be disappointed.

I love authentic scents with strong throws. I've been pleased with Circle E's Bed of Roses, Leather, Creme Brulee, Almond Creme Cake and Bird of Paradise. I find the following have a very faint throw even for the 40oz double wicked jar: Sierra Wind, Sage and Verbena and English Ivy. For the price, I would expect a strong throw. I DO NOT reccomend the votive seasonal pack as these are packaged in a cardboard box which absorbs the scents and all votives begin to smell the same. Santa Fe, a Drakkar dup, smells authentic but does not produce the amazing throw like the previous scents mentioned.

Blueberry Cobbler, amazing throw with the double wick 36oz jar. I'm addicted as is everyone else who walks in my house. Vanilla Sugar Cookie, Amy's signature scent, is out of this world! Never had a problem in the last 9 years with Amy's candles until now. My 36oz VSC, 1/4 of the way thru, stopped producing the yummy throw. I called the headquarters and they had me mail it back. I am presently waiting on a reply. Will follow up on Amy's response when I hear something.

One word...amazed! I have seen these candles at school functions and craft stores but never bought one because I thought they would be junk. Finally, one day at a Marshalls I saw a 13oz. in BANANA SPLIT scent for $4.99. How could I pass that up? I purchased it and did not expect much. Amazingly, the first layer of COCONUT BANANA filled my kitchen and it smelled wonderful! The next layer was STRAWBERRY CREAM and it was also throwing pretty well. Haven't gotten to the FRENCH VANILLA layer yet but I am hooked. This candle burns so clean with no soot (I trim the wick when it looks like it needs it) and it throws enough to fill the room its in. The scent has no odd notes that I detect. At under $5 a candle I will be getting some more of these. Happily surprised! Wink

I checked this site out when I was doing a search for heat shaped candles. Val was nice enough to extend the sale over a day on these from April.

I haven't burned all of the fragrances yet, but I will be sure to update as I do.

Tropical Tuberose- I think this one may be might favorite. I love florals, especially Tuberose, and this had a nice twist to it, maybe coconut? It had a floral sweetness. I love it!

Brown Sugar and Fig- smells like BBW, and is one of my fave scents! Definitely a re order!

Mandarin Coconut- Love, love , love it! This one will make you think SUMMER! You have to try it!

Pear Spice- this scent is not only for holidays if you are a spiced pear lover like myself. This one was great, smelling like a Pier One fragrance I love.

Haven't burned my Ginger Peach yet, but the cold throw smells divine.

These candles have a great, even burn with three wicks, and all of the wax was used! I mean all! They were packed well. I will be sure to check back often for specials. If you are hesitating on trying these candles, go ahead! You'll be delighted!
