I guess they could be a couple dollars cheaper, but I don't mind. I'm still gonna buy them!

I was shopping once in Wholefoods, a natural food store near by, when I came across some candles from Aroma Naturals. Aroma Naturals candles are made from soy wax and are scented with essential oils. I just love aromatherapy candles and at the time, I was just starting to experiment with soy candles, so I decided to give one of their candles a try to see what I thought. After sniffing all of their scents, I decided to buy their Vitality scent, which is a blend of Peppermint & Eucalyptus.
I lit my Vitality candle right when I got home and just loved the scent. It's very refreshing and filled my whole den with scent, which surprised me since most aromatherapy candles are very light when it comes to scent throw. My den isn't huge, but still I thought it had a nice strong throw for an aromatherapy candle.
Vitality is really a soothing scent to me. The peppermint actually gave me a nice cool feeling in my sinuses and helped to clear my "allergy-prone" nose. I kept breathing the scent in deeply because it felt so good.
I was very impressed with their soy wax as well. It is very smooth looking compared to a lot of other soy candles on the market, that sometimes tend to be flaky on the surface. If you're into aromatherapy candles, I highly recommend you give Aroma Naturals a try. I was very impressed. To this day, Aroma Naturals is my favorite "aromatherapy candle" company.

I had heard a lot about Aroma Naturals but their prices always kept me away. Finally, after getting a massage one day at a local spa, I decided to splurge in their aromatherapy shop and buy three different types of Aroma Naturals candles:
1. "Aromatherapy To Go" travel tin in Vitality, (peppermint & eucalyptus.)
2. 2.5" x 4" pillar in peace, (orange, clove and cinnamon.)
3. glass jar in verbena, (litsea cubeba & bergamont.)
None of the candles are very large and each ran me around $15.00 a piece. (But god are they worth it.) Each one burned evenly and had a long burn time. I haven't finished burning all of them yet and each of them have been burned for at least 30-40 hours.
These candles are so invigorating and relaxing at the same time- it's a fiesta for your olfactory glands! None of the candles needed babysitting and the wicks were easy to control and never got out of hand. Thus, each burned clean and evenly.
The only candle company that can rival this one in terms of relaxation is Pacifica, which again, takes a few bucks out of your paycheck unfortunately.
I would like to purchase more of these candles but I have so many other companies to try and I already have so many favorite companies. What's a candle junkie to do?
All and all, this luxury brand candle company is definately worth checking out if you get the chance.
Edited on 1/11/06:
These candles have an impressive burn time. Each one burned for a lot longer than I expected, but I stopped keeping track of the hours. My pillar must have burned for 55 or so, at least!

I ordered only one frosted glass jar candle. Enlighten, a blend of Anise (licorice) and Nutmeg. This is a lovely candle with moderate scent throw. It is aromatherapy, so I was not expecting a super strong throw. The candle is beautiful, a soft gray color, burns clean. The price was approx 15.00 plus s/h, so that was a drawback. I do intend to try other fragrances from this company. If you have never tried aromatherapy, this is a nice place to start.

I found out about them through candle find which they reviewed aromanaturals as best aromatherapy candle. They're right. I decided to visit whole foods around my job to purchase them to avoid paying any shipping and handling costs. Their pillars are highly scented no matter which scent you buy. I bought Tranquility(lavemder), Vitality(peppermint and eucaliptus) and Ambiance(lemmongrass and orange). They're so strong that I can only light one candle at a time, to avoid over scenting. They all smell like their descriptions and do what they state on the box. Tranquility calms and arouses sleep. Ambiance arouses energy, and happines, it prepares you in the morning for work and invites you to a beautyful sunny, vibrant day. Vitality receives you with a very minty, refreshinf scent, ideal for stuffy rooms and noses, or just to scent the house with refreshing mint.

my Wish wick smoked despite being trimmed, pricey-but they are an essential oil company

I loved these fragrances! I purchased a 6.7oz tin in the scent Ambiance, which is orange and lemongrass. This is the most perfect combination or orange and lemon that I have ever smelled. The tin was the perfect size for both my office and my bedroom, and I burned the tin in both those rooms. The scent throw was perfect and the scent was just like the website described: revitalizing, refreshing, and frankly, I thought it smelled so wonderful, it relaxed me! It did take a long time for all the wax to melt off the sides of the tin, so a burn time of more than 4-6 hours may be necessary. It is only single-wicked, but the wax melted down eventually. The wick to this tin didn't smoke.
Because of Carolyn's review, I also purchased a 6.3oz tin in the holiday scent Wish. That size tin wasn't available anymore, so I was sent two 3oz. Wish tins instead. This fragrance is incredible! I think it should be a part of Aroma Naturals everyday line. This is one of the most, if not the most, refreshing, magical scents I have ever inhaled. Although I would burn it all year, it is definitely a holiday fragrance and if fairytale worlds had a smell, this is what they would smell like:-) (at least in my imagination). Because the 3oz. tins were so small, I burned them one at a time (to save some wax for later), and only in my bathroom. The scent throw was excellent and I loved walking into my bathroom. The only thing was, for some reason, no matter how short I made the wicks, the wicks in both my Wish tins smoked black smoke. No soot was left on the tins, so my guess is that the fragrance oil made the wick smoke. I could care less, though. This scent is worth it. If you are a fan of peppermint or vanilla, you really should try this candle. Happy candle hunting from Jen the Candle Hunter
