A Note from Carolyn, Editor of CandleFind: Pure Integrity is my one of my favorite candle companies! They smell SO authentic, SO strong and are very clean burning from the soy wax they use...no soot at all. I promise if you try their candles, you'll never want to burn another brand again.

I came across this site a little over a month ago and it was because of Candlefind.com that I was able to find and try this company. First let me say that I burn candles from morning to night. I became ill and find great pleasure in the comfort I get from my candles. I have always been a candle lover and have tried almost every candle company out there and have to say Pure Integrity is one of my fav's by far.
My first order was a "lets try them out" and I ordered the vanilla, lilac, and strawberry.
NOTE ALL OF THESE WERE 16oz candles:
VANILLA HUGE throw and strong. I placed one in teh front of my home and one in the back and it filled my home very nicely. I found putting two in my bedroom was to strong. (I usually burn two at a time always). This is a REAL vanilla. You can actually smell the vanilla beans. LOVED IT
LILAC Moderate throw. It was a nice soothing floral scent and I found it to be a relaxing one in the evening in my bedroom. To me there was an undertone of a clean type smell that I also enjoyed.
STRAWBERRY Mod-Strong I also had these in tea lights and was so surprised how LONG they lasted. I had never seen tea lights last this long. I could burn them for almost three days. The scent was sweet to me which I like in a strawberry scent and it was very true to it's name. If you like strawberry this is a great one for you.
On this order I also got a free MULBERRY which was the 5oz jar and I was so surprised that this little candle packed a big punch. I lit it on my night table in my bedroom and it filled it pretty well. I loved the scent and it was the purest "mulberry" scent I have tried. It does seem you have to trim the wicks more on these smaller candles but to me this one was well worth it. It burned totally clean and now I use the jar in my bathroom room. It was a strong scent to me which I also loved and will be ordering a larger jar.
My next order I contacted Jennifer to get some suggestions since as all of us know it is hard to order "candles" online without being able to smell them. She was very helpful and we emailed each other for about a week before I placed my next order. She did her best to try and describe how she felt each scent was like. After our long conversations I finally made up my mind and ordered two each of Sandalwood, Pina Colada, Fruit Slices and Creame Brulee. I also was sent MANY tea lights including the new summer scents.
SANDALWOOD AMBER I was really looking forward to this one and I don't know what happened but I did not get a scent through most of the candle. It wasn't till the very end that all of a sudden I got a great scent throw and LOVED it. It was just a shame that I didn't get to enjoy this candle until the last couple of burns. :-( It is a great scent and I would have loved to have been able to have enjoyed it. I have contacted Jennifer about this but have not yet heard back from her, will let you know. ***UPDATE: As always their cutomer service was wonderful and Jennifer scent me a replacement for this candle. This time it was PERFECT. It had a great scent all through the candle and in my opinion makes a great 'bedroom' and romantic scent. To me this one had a slight perfume undertone as well but it isn't overwhelming by any means.
PINA COLADA MODERATE throw. THIS IS A GREAT ONE My daughter and I loved this one. It is a great summer scent to me. My hubby even made a comment on it which he never does. All that was missing was the rum. LOL It smelled JUST like the real thing and was very refreshing and to me a fun kind of scent. This is great for summer. You could smell the pineapple and cocconut with a touch of sweetness. This one I will reorder.
FRUIT SLICES Huge throw. I don't know what I can say about this one that everyone else has already said. I LOVED it and it is one of my fav's right up there with the vanilla. To me I would burn this one anytime of the year because I love it so much. I can see why it has gotten such great reviews.
I got MANY complimentary tea lights and one of my favs was the Almost Paradise, Chocolate and the new summer scents First Bloom and Lemon Meringue.
CHOCOLATE My daugter and I laughed at the chocolate as it smelled JUST like fresh baked brownies in the oven. I mixed burning it with the vanilla and WOW what a GREAT combination. My daughter wants me to order the chocolate for her.
FIRST BLOOM since this was only a tea light I would hate to comment on the throw but will say that I put two in my bathroom and it filled it up VERY well. I really love this scent. To me it has a beautiful fresh cut flowers smell and is very refreshing. As with all the tealights from this company they burned for days. I liked this one so much that I will be ordering it this week in a large jar.
LEMON MERINGUE this was also a tealight and the scent throw was terrific. Now I am not a normal "lemon" type person but this was really nice. I could actually smell what I thought was a pie crust. It was a fresh lemon smell (not at all like pledge) but a like fresh cut lemons when making lemonaide and a touch of sugar. If you like a mix of a twist on a bakery scent but with a clean fresh cut lemon scent and a touch of sweetness you will love this one. To my surprise I really liked this scent and will be ordering this one in a larger jar as well.
***UPDATE: I ordered two of the larger ones in this scent and was NOT disapointed. They both burned great and as I have already discribed the scent was as great as the tea lights if not better. I can't get over how much you can actually smell the crust :-) I had two jars burning in a small room and actually put one out because one was strong enough.
ALMOST PARADISE Again this is one I can't say much more then what all of the other great reviews have been on it. I loved it right out of the box and I knew it would be a great one burning and it was. The scent throw was terrific!!! If you like a fruity and clean type smell this is one for you for sure.
CONCLUSION All and all I love this company and will be making many more orders. The candles burn very clean and last a VERY LONG TIME. (I burn candles constantly in my home and everyday so that is a big deal for me). The customer service is great. Any time I had a question on a scent I just wrote to them and got a response. I really love this company and love their candles. As everyone else has stated I also got a personal note in regard to questions I may have had or just a thank you which to me says a lot. I will be writing again soon and when my next order arrives :-)
***UPDATE
Well as an update I bought a bigger size jar of the new FIRST BLOOM and have to say this is one of my all time favorite candles EVER. I usually do not like floral but LOVE this one. The scent throw is TERRIFIC. One 16oz filled my entire living room and kitchen area. It is such a romantic yet fresh scent and my husband loves it as well (which says a lot trust me lol). It is not to "perfumy" which I really like since I am prone to headaches. It is like walking in a beautiful garden full of fresh flowers. It is a great one for spring and summer but I can see this will be one I will burn anytime of the year. It is a nice one to relax to as well like a lavender would be.
UPDATE: 5/31/07 I just ordered the CHERRY, GRAPE, ROSE, AND MULBERRY.
MULBERRY I already know I love this one as I had a small jar (I got it for free for doing the "refer a friend"), and it filled my bedroom which I was surprised given the smaller size of the jar and it lasted for a very long time. I can't wait to get the larger jars. The scent on this one is strong just like I like my candles to be. It is one of the better mulberry candles I have tried.
The CHERRY I have tried in tea lights. I lit two in my bathroom. It smelled just like cherry lifesavers and I loved it. It had a crisp refreshing kind of smell as well (don't know if that makes sense but don't know how else to describe it). I didn't think I would like it
but I did. It wasn't to sweet and smelled just like you would think a cherry candle would smell like. I can't wait to get the larger jar. It also had a great scent throw especially for being tea lights. For me this is one I would not have normally purchased so I am glad they scent me a tealight to try so I could "step out of the box" as they say.
I haven't tried the grape or rose yet but will let everyone know when I get them... Happy candle burning to everyone until then...
Some of you may already know this but each month they have a different "special" and everytime you place an order you can do the "refer a friend" which gives you a free 5oz candle of your choice of scent. I just always put the name of the scent I want in the comments section when I check out since I have found that sometimes the box doesn't always show up at checkout. They have always read the comments and made sure I got my free candle. I have not yet found a scent that I did not like from this company and cannot say enough about the WONDERFUL customer service. I think I have now tried almost every scent they have. I like my candles to have a very strong scent throw and MOST of these do even the ones that say "moderate" on their website. The only negitive thing I can say about them is I wish the price was a little lower but besides that it is a great company to try if you have not done so already.

After reading the reviews, I ordered four 16oz jars and I have to say I loved them. I ordered Oatmeal Cookie and that was my fav - it scented my whole living room/kitchen area, also ordered Vanilla Almond, Pumpkin Pie, and Hot Apple Strudel. They all gave a great scent throw and burned very nice. I have recommended this company to all my candle friends and will absolutely order from them again :-)

A little on the pricey side but if that is what it takes to make them strong, for me it is worth it!

I just recently tried this company after reading the reviews here at CandleFind. I have to admit I was a little nervous to try them without being able to "smell" them first. However I am so glad I did. I loved the jars they come in and love the fact they do not put lables on the front of the jar. I ordered the vanilla, first bloom, and almost paradise. I have to agree with the previous reviewer that the first bloom smells soooo beautiful. I ordered the large jars and they burned clean and I had no wax left when they were done. (now I use the jars in my bathroom for cotten balls). I also liked the fact that they were double wicked. I am very happy with my first purchase and will be buying more from this company in the future for sure. The scents are very true to their name and all had a great scent throw (especially the vanilla and first bloom). This was the first time I tried soy candles and I don't think I will ever go back to the "others". I didn't realize what a difference soy made. Thank you CandleFind for helping me find such great candles!!!

I must say that these are the BEST candles I have ever purchased!! I am a candle addict, Illuminations, Yankee Candle, Votivo, etc..... I absolutely LOVE these. I chose GRAPE which smells like grape koolaid from my childhood, makes your mouth water. I also chose HYACINTH which is so soft and true to scent, it is amazing. These candles burn very clean, come in pretty frosted jars and they pack them with care. I am a "FOREVER" customer.

Here I am again only 3 weeks later. I absolutely LOVE these candles!
This time I chose: PEACH, FRUIT SLICES, BLACKBERRY, GRAPE (again) and FIRST BLOOM.
The peach and grape are "mouth watering". They actually smell juicy. I love them.
The blackberry smells exactly as it should, like blackberries and the fruit slices smells like a roll of 5 flavor lifesavers. I received the First Bloom as a freebie for friend referral and Jennifer sent me a much LARGER size for my
continued business. She also sent me some Mulberry tealights wrapped up all pretty with a ribbon.
Excellent customer service with attention to detail and a personal note included. These candles burn so clean, no black soot like other companies. They are packed perfectly in egg cartons with peanuts. I am hooked!
