Village Candle Summer Slices Candle

I love candles and have spent large amounts of money on candles throughout my life. I have discovered some of the biggest names out there have the least scent, and even more so lately. Back in the day I would purchase these candles and have them scent a whole large room with no problem- lately, not so much.
I started looking for a candle that would provide me with that super strong scent I missed and I am so glad I found it with Village Candle! I contacted them for a review a while back, and I was thrilled when they agreed to send me a premium round candle for my review. I selected the summer slices scent because I love all summery smells, particularly fruit scents. I have been so impressed with this candle. My living room is pretty decently sized and is open to the kitchen. I really have issues getting any candle to leave a scent in this design, but my Village Candle does! I even had a roast in the crockpot yesterday and I smelled the candle more than the roast!

"As refreshing and fun as a summer get together. The inviting fragrances of freshly sliced watermelon and crisp cucumbers straight from the vine capture the best of summer for you to enjoy anytime."


The Summer Slices has a terrific aroma of (mostly) watermelon, with undertones of cucumber. I just love it. It really brings summer right into my living room. The scent truly reminds me of a watermelon jolly rancher, which I love!  It also seems to burn extremely slowly. I have burned it 3 or 4 times for multiple hours each time, and it does not seem to have made a dent in the candle at all.

At only $18 for a VERY large 26oz jar candle, when other brands are MUCH MUCH more expensive- you should definitely check into them! Village Candle definitely passes my smell test, and I like them as much- IF NOT better than more comparable more expensive candles! The two wick design is very nice too because it has a cleaner burn, increases the candle burning ambiance, and more efficient because with two wicks burning, it really burns a lot of that wax in the bottom of the jar!
