WoodWick Fireside Holiday Candle Gifts for Women and Men, 9.7 oz Medium Hourglass Candle with Crackling Wick

There’s a reason why this isn’t my first WoodWick..

First woodwick I had was the Woodwick Vanilla Bean oblong candle. It almost looked like a mini fireplace, I loved it! Problem is - it’s too expensive to replace it. So I settled for the WoodWick Hourglass in Fireside - sure enough, I didn’t settle for less! If you’ve ever just melted and caramelized sugar in a sauce pan - that’s what this particular candle smells like! Just has a touch of sweet, woodsy scent along with it. Love how the lid of the candle doubles as a base to protect your surfaces! When you light it for the first time, the flame will appear offset but just give it a chance to do its job. The flame engulfs the wood wick and immediately starts crackling - just like a fireplace on a small scale! The flame is bright enough to light up a small room for a romantic or soothing environment. Very therapeutic. Like any candle, you have to maintain them. Make sure to carefully read the label on the bottom of the jar before you light it so you know what to do. Please don’t flip it while it’s lit and be careful when blowing it out as the wax on these candles are much less viscous than other candles. I don’t recommend using this candle for longer than 3 1/2 to 4 hours cause the wax liquefies quickly on the second or third use. This candle is totally worth every bit of the $18 I paid for it and I look forward to buying my next one from here! Shipped quickly, got here the next day.

Beautiful scent....Purchased 2 more.

Purchased this candle on Prime Day. One of my favorite scents is Yankee's Pink Sands. It's great for the summer, but it is a sweet scent. I wanted something very different to change it up. The description for this candle (Fireside) says: bergamot, amber, exotic woods, and musk. Like others who've left reviews, I STRUGGLE to try to describe the smell. It is definitely NOT anything sweet, but it IS a DEEP, warm, luscious, cozy, homey smell. Not sure it SMELLS anything like a fire, but perhaps it's the musk that gives that "feeling". It would be a PERFECT companion to a fireplace going, or to a gas or electric log "fake" fireplace. Since it was burning in the kitchen and I'd been in the family room, the scent wafted to me in a very nice way, but I was unaware of any crackling that may have been going on. I don't care about crackling. To me, the presentation and most importantly, the scent is all important. It burned quite evenly for several hours and the wax is even upon cooling. It doesn't appear as if much was used. I am so impressed and loving this scent, I purchased 2 more at the Prime Day price. When summer ends, it'll be the PERFECT fall/winter candle, however, personally, it's so lovely, it could be used year round. WONDERFUL, elevated, rich, homey scent!

Cozy, Warm Fireside Scent with a Real Crackling Wick

This WoodWick Fireside candle is exactly what I was hoping for. The scent is warm and cozy, like a real fireplace burning on a cold evening. It’s not too sweet or overpowering, which I really appreciate. It makes the room feel comfortable and relaxing without giving me a headache. The wooden wick is my favorite part. It actually crackles while it burns, and the sound is surprisingly calming. It really does feel like having a small fire going, especially at night. The candle burns evenly, and the scent throw is strong enough to fill a living room without being overwhelming. I also like the size and look of the jar. The 9.7 oz hourglass glass looks nice on a table or shelf, and it makes a great gift for both men and women. I’ve already used it during the holidays, but I can see myself burning this all winter long. If you’re looking for a quality fireside candle, a relaxing wooden wick candle, or a holiday candle gift that actually smells good, this one is a solid choice. I would definitely buy it again and try other WoodWick scents.
