Pros: cute tiny jar.
Cons: a bit expensive, scent & scent strength could be better

I'm totally new to these candles. I just burned my first one yesterday...it's their Warm Apple Pie scent in one of their really small jars. (I picked it up right in Acme...a well-known foodstore on the East Coast. They have a nice display of Village Candles.) I don't really like it that much. It kind of just smells like apples with a hint of cinnamon. It doesn't have that awesome pie crust smell to it that some other apple pie scented candles do.


The scent strength of my candle wasn't really strong. It was ok, just not an awesome really "saturating-my-room" kind of smell. That might be from the candle being a really tiny jar.


I still want to try other Village Candles to see how some of the other scents are. I guess I'll try them in a bigger jar next time to see if the scent strength is better.

Pros: good price,great smell paid 20.00
Cons:

I bought a summer slices 26oz jar and a summer slices car candle car air freshener. The candle filled my room quickly and did'nt smell artificial as some watermelon and cucumber candles sometimes do. The air freshener smelled exactly the same as the candle and lasted pretty long. I will definately burn this candle again. Has any one else burned this candle? Let me know!

Pros: Great scents
Cons: A little pricey

Ok, first let's just say that apples n oak is one of my all time favorite scents anyway! I love this candle, and the car candle too. This fragrance is so warm and screams Fall to me. The candles are clean burning too.

Pros:
Cons:

I have tried a few scents from this company and some are stronger smelling then others. I like their Mulled Cider. What they told me is the sqaure premium are stronger scented, the round ones are relatively new- I did purchase the square one, what I have learned in general about candles, sometimes the frangance just doesn't produce a strong smell

Pros: Great Scent Selection; Various Candle Types to Choose From; Burn Quite Well
Cons: Votive & Tealight Wicks Off Centre at times

Before I start I must say that you guys in the States are so lucky to have so many great candles to pick from. Here in Australia we have little of our own and those that do exist focus on looks and color rather than scent. Lucky you!!! Village Candles are the only American Candles that I've come across that smell so good.


I've burned the following;


Friendship
Love Birds
American Spirit
Just Because
LightHouse
Apple A Day
Heart N Home
Warm Apple Pie
Rasberry Tart
Grape Bordeaux
Hydrangea
Spring Lilac
Lily of the Valley
Jasmine
Gardenia
Natural Cotton
Summer Breeze


Some smell stronger than others but overall good scent throw - even unlit.
Premium Square Jars are supposedly stronger scented than Round Jars - I've also been told that they're scented the same strength in both.
I've been told both lines by Village Candles themselves so I'm not really sure at this stage. Premium Square Jars cost more so I think they may contain more or maximum oil content than round. As I have only Root Candles and some other Iowa Soy Candle Company starting with A...... to compare with - Village Candles are the bees knees. Love the many various scents offered. I love the different types because I burn Jars, Pillars, votives, tealights and melts !!! Love them.
