This Candle is so nice! If you've been reading my blog for a while you'll know how much I love The Body Shop Peach body butter and body spray. Well this candle smells exactly like the Body Shop's peach fragrance! Its so fresh and juicy smelling exactly like a freshly cut open peach. As its infused with Pink Grapefruit, Orange, Mango and Coconut its so summery and such a nice scent to burn in the kitchen or living room! 

Both candles are the large 22oz Jar candles which burn for approx 120-150 hours, which is loads! I've had mine for around a month now and burn them both on a daily basis for a few hours and I've still got around half a jar left in both! 

These large Jar Goose Creek Candles are available from Scented Candle Heaven for £17.99 as they are on offer at the moment reduced from £22.99!!

I highly recommend you check out Goose Creek candles as their scent selection is fantastic and they burn for ages, filling your house with amazing scent!

Village Candle have always been my favourite jar candle manufacturers as they produce the most stunning fragrances and thanks to their 2 wick design they burn evenly without leaving an annoying tunnel of wax around the outside of the jar. I'd spotted the new Limited Edition Fragrances on their website a few weeks ago and was overjoyed when they arrived on my door step last week for review. I received 3 of the 11oz jar candles and these fragrances are only available in the 11oz and the 16oz sizes. I've burnt all three for a few hours each and they are amazing! I would even go as far as to say these new fragrances are my favourite to date as they are so refreshing and perfect for the summer months! Let me tell you more about them....

Sweet Nectar Limited Edition Premium Fragranced Candle Jar

''Nectar of sweet clove honey highlighted by the perfect floral bouquet of traditional rose, fragrant jasmine and golden honeysuckle with a touch of creamy vanilla.''

This Candle is so nice! I wasn't sure I would like it as much as the others as I prefer Fruity, Woody Scents but this one is a dream! Its not as floral as id imagined which I like as I'm not a huge fan of Floral Scents but its very sweet and a little 'cake' like, If that makes sense. The Honeysuckle really shows through the floral fragrance and Its a really nice candle to burn in the evenings as I've found it to be very relaxing due to it not being very overpowering. 

Size: 11oz (701g)
Burn Time: Up to 55 hours

Beach House Limited Edition Premium Fragranced Candle Jar

''Awaken the senses with this sea inspired scent with notes of fresh waters, white flowers and warm woods''

I knew this one would be right up my street as its such a summer scent. It smells very fresh and inviting and is true to its name 'Beach house'  as its the perfect summer beach fragrance. I'm sure this candle would bring back many happy memories of summer holidays for anyone who burns this fragrance. I've been speaking with  the lovely Sophie from Village Candle and she stated that this candle was her favourite from the new limited edition collection. 

Size: 11oz (701g)
Burn Time: Up to 55 hours

Pink Grapefruit Limited Edition Premium Fragranced Candle Jar

''Sparkling grapefruit and mandarin zest are blended with juicy peach and succulent mango in this sweet yet tangy blend.''

I love my fruity fragrances the most so when I took the lid of this one it smelt divine! I recently reviewed the Village Candle Grapefruit candle and I can honestly say this one smells much nicer and more like an actual freshly cut and squeezed Pink Grapefruit. Its a really juicy, mouth watering scent and it fills the room instantly once its burning. You can really smell the peach and mango notes bursting through the scent as it burns. This is the best candle for summer mornings burning in the kitchen whilst you enjoy a fruit tea :) 

Size: 11oz (701g)
Burn Time: Up to 55 hours

The two wicks for me always ensure my Village Candles burn evenly and they haven't ever tunnelled down the jar as my previous Yankee Candles have done. They look so pretty on my mantles and fireplace and the photographs on the front of the jars always match the fragrance so well.

I have linked to the Village Candle website for you all to check out their full range of amazing fragrances but you cannot purchase from the website unless your a supplier. Sophie has advised me that if you want to find out where your nearest retailer is then please send an email with your postcode and quote 'Sophie Jenner Blog' to sales@villagecandle.co.uk  and She will be sure to point you in the right direction :) I know that Cane & Able Cwmbran have now started to stock Village Candles. I do not receive commission on sales and I am not affiliated with Village Candle in anyway.

I haven't done a Yankee Candle review in a while and on a recent stroll around town, Craig and I picked up a few new Yankee Candle Scents and a few old favs. Grapefruit is one of my all time favs for spring summer scents as its so fresh and fruity! Its a gorgeous pink shade also and looks stunning on my mantle. Its the perfect refreshing pick me up scent and its not over powering at all. We also picked up the 3 new 'Cafe Culture' range from Yankee wax melts called Cappuccino Truffle, Pain Au Raisin and Tarte Tatin, which smell divine! I will be doing a review on those shortly, once I've had chance to melt them. I couldn't resist also getting Pink Grapefruit and Red Raspberry as they also smelt perfect for all this stunning spring weather we are now getting here in Wales. 

I hope your all having a fantastic Weekend and let me know what your favourite Spring Yankee Candle scents are in the Comments below. 

I have been trying out the village candles for well over a month now so that I could give you all a true review of them! I absolutely love Village Candles and Can't wait to try out the new spring/summer range as they look and sound amazing. I think the village candles that I have tried have lasted a lot longer than the Yankee jars I've purchased in the past which is great as they are cheaper than Yankee candles too! 

I'd love to know if you've tried any Village Candles and if so which fragrance is your favourite? 

I hope your all having a great weekend!

As you all know I recently reviewed Ark skincare and loved it! If you haven't already read my review of the age aware skincare discovery collection I will link it here. Whilst browsing their website I noticed Ark also do a range of home aromatics from reed defusers to room sprays and these cute little scented candles. This is the Candle Discovery collection* and it includes three mini sized candles in the Ark fragrances Living,Loving and Lounging...

As you all know by now, I have a slight obsession with candles especially the scented kind...So when I was sent this Cocktail Cosmopolitan candle* to review from IWOOT.com , I couldn't wait to see what it smelt like. IWOOT stands for I Want One Of Those and their website has tons of awesome quirky gifts for all occasions. There is so many amazing products on their website its easy to find a great gift or a sneaky treat for yourself!

The cocktail candle in the fragrance Cosmopolitan smells lovely and is really refreshing as it smells of oranges and cranberry's. All of the cocktail candles are made from pure vegetable wax and have a cotton wick. They burn for approximately 30 hours and I've burnt mine for ages now and still have half the jar left which is great! The cocktail candles are available a variety of different flavours and are £11.99 on the IWOOT website. 

I love this candle because its not over powering at all and smells lush! Its very fresh and fruity and I will be sure to check out the rest of the Cocktail Candle range from IWOOT.com.

I hope your all having a great week so far!

Last week Marvin from Village Candle kindly sent me these Jar candles to review. I'm a huge jar candle fan and have ALWAYS got a scented candle burning in my house so when I received these three, I couldn't wait to start burning them. The Village Candle Premium Candle Jars come in three sizes, are available in 40 fragrances and burn for up to 170 hrs which I think is amazing! I was lucky enough to receive Black Cherry, Creamy Vanilla and Pure Linen to test out and I can honestly say I'm so happy and surprised by these candles...
