Aroma Naturals Essential Oil Orange and Lemongrass Scented Pillar Candle, Ambiance, 2.5 inch x 4 inch, Yellow

The title says it all-- Aroma Naturals are a quality candle and well worth the price. I use A LOT of candles and for the last 20+ years have bought the majority of them at a long-time, local, family owned candle shop. They had great candles that they made on site as well as really cool candle accessories that you just couldn't find at a big box store. I was devastated when they closed, but fortunately I'm a candle hoarder so I've been able to coast through my mourning period with my favorite candles. Then the time finally came when I was going to have to find a new go-to candle brand-- and I'm pretty sure I've found it with Aroma Naturals. I never bought cheap/artificial-smelling candles (and absolutely loathe the popular YC brand) but the Aroma Naturals candles put my old favorites to shame. First off-- the quality of the scents is unmatched. It is obvious, even before lighting, that these candles are made with quality essential oils. I rotate between candle burning and oil diffusing, only using high quality EG brand oils, and I can tell that Aroma Naturals uses quality essential oils. After experiencing the Aroma Naturals candles, I can tell that, while still nice candles, my favorite old shop was not using quality, natural essential oils. Another plus-- they burn great with not a lot of waste. As long as you follow general candle burning tips (ie. keep wick trimmed, make sure first burn is long enough to melt to the edge to avoid "tunneling," don't burn under/near a fan/blowing air etc) you should get hours of enjoyment from these candles. In the picture you can see what was left after burning a 2.5 x 4 pillar all the way down. I burned it in the same small bowl that the red one next to it is in. Based on other candles I've burned, there was a reasonable amount of waste at the bottom of the bowl. In my experience I have found that bowls tend to do better in terms of waste than plates, and the smallest size container you can find to fit your candle usually helps as well. The scents are strong (in a good way) and can easily fill a large room or even travel through multiple rooms. Lastly, the packaging was great-- the candles were wrapped with care inside a nice box-- and you can even smell the scent through the amazon packaging. Looking forward to trying many more scents, but these are my thoughts on the ones I've tried so far: --Ambiance (orange and lemongrass): This is a beautiful citrus scent-- very clean and fresh citrus notes with a hint of sweet orange oil. Not your typical citrus. --Fresh Forest (juniper, spruce and basil): A fresh cut Christmas tree in a candle-- amazing! Fresh, woodsy, authentic. Think, sticking your head in tree-- awesome! I have a sensitive sense of smell, so it got a little strong for me at times, but then I'd just blow it out for a while and enjoy the lingering scent. --Warm Spice (orange, clove and cinnamon): Now this one was an EXTREMELY pleasant surprise for me. I'm not partial to clove or cinnamon, so I didn't expect to like it as much as it did. The citrus saved the day and brought it all together for me. Honestly, I've never liked a cinnamon candle and now this just might top my favorites list. You know those boxes of cinnamon pine cones that they have in the entries of the craft stores starting like before Halloween-- those make me gag. This candle has all the wonderful notes of those spices but with none of that artificial smell and then brings it all home with the citrus. Warm Spice is an absolute perfect holiday candle! Looking forward to trying the entire line of Aroma Naturals candles.

I am a huge fan of lemongrass so I had to buy this candle. It's a lovely yellow color. The wick burns straight down and the fragrance fills the room, but it's not overwhelming at all. I find that I can burn the candle for about an hour and after I put it out the smell will linger for quite a while. This is a quality candle that is well worth the money. I would purchase this candle again and others from the company. This was a great find!!!!

I've bought two forms of this candle (the larger pillar and the votives) for years and years and was thrilled when I found them on Amazon. This is the most deliciously-scented candle ever. It's intoxicating. Though I crave the gorgeous scent, I can also attest to the quality of the candle in every other respect. The other fragrances are lovely, highly recommended according to one's individual taste, but I'm totally stuck on the orange and lemongrass.

I love the lemony citrus scent but it did not last through out the whole candle! My other candles from Amazon the fragrance lasted the whole candle but this time it didn’t. I is pretty in the room with it being a soft yellow so I kept it. I was a little disappointed but that’s ok, everything else I order is perfect so this is no big deal. I still like the candle for the color!

I put this in my drawer to make all of my clothes smell good. It's not clear to me if I should try to burn this because I've had such rotten luck lately with candles in this shape.

I was really excited when I first opened the box of this candle. The packaging was lovely, and the candle itself looked beautiful with its strong, vibrant color. In fact, it smelled amazing right out of the box — a lovely, inviting fragrance that promised to fill the room with warmth. Unfortunately, once lit, the experience took a turn. Despite the strong initial scent in the packaging, I could barely detect any fragrance while the candle was burning. It was incredibly subtle to the point of being non-existent, which was a huge letdown considering how great it smelled when unlit. Ironically, the box itself actually had a stronger scent than the candle once it was burning. On the positive side, the candle burned cleanly and evenly, leaving only a small rim of wax around the edges — no tunneling or excess soot. While I appreciated how it burned, the lack of a noticeable scent throw makes it hard to recommend if you're after something to really fill your space with fragrance. We haven’t even bothered to light it again, which is disappointing given how promising it seemed at first. I really wanted to love it, but sadly, the performance just didn’t live up to the expectations set by its appearance and pre-lit scent.

Great candles! Smell is spot on and they burn perfectly!

Love the smell. Can’t say enough about it
