Can’t do Baies! Headache inducing but wear and love most of the scents. Floral tends to give me a migraine.

Anyone else taking avenge of P.F. Candle’s sale? What did you order and why?

It seems like folks are split on this brand, some love the subtle scent and other not so much. After reading lots of P.F. Candle reviews on this sub I decided to try 2 candles, 5 incidents, and 1 linen spray

• Standard Candle in Watermelon & Chili and Los Angeles (I had Cathedral Clove in my basket but deleted to stay on budge – hope I don’t regret it.
• Golden Coast in the Room & Linen Spray and Incense Sticks
• Incense Sticks: Ojai Lavender, Saltwater Jasmine, Wild Herb Tonic, Arroyo Oak, Amber & Moss

Hi there. I am looking for a new candle and there are so many options on the market haha I am also quite new to the luxury candle scene.

Thought I could just quickly ask for some recs here.

Since it’s summer here in Germany and it’s getting pretty warm, I am looking for a nice fresh scented candle.

I love linen, cotton, clean soapy smells. But also love floral and sea scented stuff too.

So far these are the candles I have loved and used in the past:

Byredo:
- Cotton Poplin
- Coin Laundry
- Bibliotheque

PF Candle Co.
- Los Angeles
- Sandalwood Rose

As you can see, I haven’t used many and while I do love the two top brands, I don’t find the throw on all of them so great, besides a few standouts.
So I appreciate any recs. As I said before, I live in Germany, therefore the brand would have to be acquirable here/EU.

Thanks in advance :)

Please suggest some candles or wax melts for my first few days post elective limb surgery. I’m expecting an EFFload of pain and want to treat myself to something lovely to look forward to. X

I see candle delirium has this in their batch of new scents. I'm interested since I've got a discount code. Curious if people have burned this candle, how is the hot throw? What exactly does it smell like? Thanks!!!

Some candles and Diffuser are on sale

Anyone know where I can find ultra niche candle fragrance scents I’m not talking about the ones that are already out there or another fruit, floral or gourmand scent I’m talking about atmospheric scents like nightclub or Laneway

Has anyone gotten their candles from Lemuria’s summer sale? I’m so nervous - it’s 100+ degrees today and my order is out for delivery. I keep envisioning a box full of melted wax. Do I have any hope?? Why are people running sales on candles right now 😩

Update: candles were delivered perfectly fine, a little moist on top but no wax anywhere. Feeling incredibly silly for worrying 😅

so I know this totally depends on the vibe of the home, but thought I’d ask anyway.

think of a cute little cape cod with a white picket fence in a little high income historic neighborhood. it looks cozy/small on the outside with a cute little porch with Virginia creeper vines running up the side, but step inside and it’s surprisingly open and airy with a two-story tall great room with sunlight streaming in thru big windows spanning almost the whole width and length of the opposite wall — through shimmering green trees, casting hundreds of little dynamic circles of light everywhere in the room. I have a few houseplants around which love the high ceiling, and all the natural light. Furniture is sparse and low but high quality. the hardwood flooring, big windows, but historic, worn-but-maintained wooden surfaces throughout makes it feel kind of zen.

what kind of candle would you pick for selling a house w/ this kind of vibe?

Even something generic would be fine - like a lemon, linen, eucalyptus, etc?

thanks!!

Lafco is having a 30% off their Holiday candles.

Our July BST thread is officially open!

If you have candles to trade, sell, or are looking to purchase, leave a comment below.

Here are some simple guidelines to help keep you safe in BST transactions-

General BST rules:

Only post items you currently have in your possession.

Include size, how many times lit, percentage left, etc.

When paying through PayPal, use the Goods and Services option. There is a fee, but this will protect the purchase and ultimately both the buyer and seller if something goes awry.

When posting either items to sell or items you are in search of, include your location (country). This will help folks figure out if shipping would be domestic or international.

As always, use your discretion and BST at your own risk. Mods cannot assist with BST issues or transactions.

I got an alert from Diptyque about a secret sale that went to my US associated account while the sale is for European people Lol

I saw Christmas, perfumes, and recently discontinued candles along with kitchen and candles accessories such as plates. I didn’t know Diptyque is in the kitchen business. Thought I don’t know how Diptyque can possibly ship candles in high heats blasting Europe!

Luckyscent is running a 10% plus free shipping with code- July4. I grabbed a few Lola James Harper and Astier de Villatte candles.
