Fresh and invigorating!

I love pine scents for how fresh they are and by adding peppermint to the mix it's a truly invigorating candle. I don't get much if any of the cocoa but that's okay. My one complaint is that for a candle with a throw labeled 'strong' it isn't as strong as I'd hoped.

Warm and sweet

This is a delicious scent, perfect for fall or cooler weather. To me the nutmeg really stands out, and while I knew the scent throw was mild/moderate when I bought it I do wish it was a bit stronger as it lives up to that mild rating.

My personal favorite

I love all the scents that transport me to a bookstore. Remember them?? Stay Home & Read, Reading at the Cafe, & Bookstore evoke such wonderful memories of browsing & walking out with a stack of books.

Great gift idea!

We have enjoyed ordering candles from Frostbeard in the past, and so when I saw this box was available, I immediately ordered one and have used it as a family 12-days of Christmas gift! Each night we take turns between Dec. 13th and Dec. 24th picking one candle from the box, take turns smelling the candle and then set it out to be used next! Just something fun to do together and enjoy these wonderfully named and scented candles!

Always one of my favorite scents. Strong enough to create ambiance, but not overpowering at all. Love it!

A holiday favourite in our house

Bah Humbug is delightful; even Scrooge would like this scent. Very Christmas forward, with the fruity notes and the little touch of pepper.

Overpowering leather smell

This one was disappointing and perhaps it's just our batch, but it has an overpowering leather smell.

Hi Michael,

Sorry the leather was stronger than you'd hoped! We do offer returns/exchanges on unused items if you haven't burned yet let us know and we can find one you love :)

I was hesitant to get this because I thought it would be too similar to Sherlock's Study but I like this one even more. It's a really nice scent for every day.

Christmas!

This is a perfect scent for Christmas-time. I think this is my favorite of the Christmas candles

Sherlock's Study Candle

Candles arrived safely and fairly quickly considering how far it had to travel. It was packed very well. The candle smells fantastic.

Subtle autumn evening scent

Slightly elusive; whenever i melt this scent it changes. Sometimes more cocoa-y, sometimes more smoky, sometimes more autumnal. Overall, its intriguing, but I'd also enjoy it being stronger in its blend and scent throw

Soft cabin scent

Was hoping for a more robust woodsy scent here but it's gentle like coming inside a wood cabin on a cold day.

Like a foggy Halloween night

I expected this to be very sweet and appley, but its more complex than that, with the feel of wet leaves, dark skies, and treats that might be dangerous. A unique autumn scent.

Dark and mysterious

When you're in the mood for moody, this is a deep and enveloping spicy scent. Could be good for fall and winter
