If you've read any of my past candle reviews, you probably know that as much as I'm a candle fanatic, I'm also quite picky about what I light up in my home. The latest candle to come under my scrutiny is Tocca's Colette Candle ($38). I've had good experiences with the luxury brand's beauty products in the past, but had never tried Tocca home fragrances. Just like the Tocca Bianca, which I Read more

Our very own PartySugar recently asked the Assisted Living group for scented candle suggestions: I recently moved into an old building in San Francisco. I went away for the long weekend and when I returned last night, I couldn't take the funky smell. I made sure to take the garbage out before I left on Thursday evening, but both the bathroom and main room (it's a studio) smelled stuffy and old. Read more

If you've read any of my past candle reviews, you probably know that as much as I'm a candle fanatic, I'm also quite picky about what I light up in my home.

I own very similar Fleur-de-Lys Glasses, which I adore, and I'm Read more

Nevertheless, when Himalayan Trading Post sent over a couple of its candles, I was happy to give them a test run. First up is the Small Spice Pot Candle ($23) in Wild Rose and Oak. With a dark wood finish, this spice pot has a vintage look, Read more

Lumnique, a new company that specializes in personalized candles, recently sent over a vanilla candle for me to review.

I purchased this candle at Annie's last summer in Vail, CO. Annie's is one of my favorite shops in the village, and regrettably, they do not have a website. If you are ever there for holiday, or just driving through, Read more

Here is a post from OnSugar blog Maison Classique: I bring to you a candle company I am excited to spread the word about: West Third. I purchased this one at The Malibu Colony Company in December 2009. The candle names (all Los Angeles locations, the one pictured here is "Laurel Canyon") and peacock feather graphic drew me in.

You may remember that I am very picky about my candles — and willing to spend big bucks on one that I love. Beyond that, I am skeptical of "seasonal" scents, because I often find them gimmicky or simply rushed to the market. So even when Linnea's Lights' new limited edition Fir candle ($28) arrived at my desk in its elegant box, I wasn't yet sold. Scent: Pulling the candle out of its box, I Read more
