This is a great product that was even featured on Oprah!
I find that the purpose of these votive candles is to be smaller and cheaper candles that you can purchase to try out different smells. The larger candle costs about $40 so this is a good option if you want to see if you like a particular smell or not.
It comes in a clear glass vessel, with opaque stripes running vertically on the outside. This candle could match just about any interior. This small votive candle also burned very evenly (no tunneling, etc.). The Nest line of candles is a great brand and I have had a few of their other scents.
While they do not use soy wax, they do use cosmetic grade paraffin - this means that the wax would be acceptable to use in cosmetic products as well. I find this to be very comforting knowing that this candle is not releasing a lot of harmful carcinogenic chemicals like other cheaper candles do. Also their fragrance throw is unparalleled. For such small candles, they release a lot of fragrance into a room.
Now for the smell.. I would say the strongest notes are of the grapefruit, however, this is far from the only scent that is in this candle. I am not sure what lily of the valley smells like but I find there to be a bit of an earthy scent to this which is probably from the lily of the valley scent. I am sitting here smelling it now to try to give you the most accurate description possible. It reminds me of a spring or summer day and is a very clean smelling scent. This would be a great kitchen or bathroom candle. There is also a more subtle note of coriander blossom giving it a bit of a sweet smell. Altogether, these smells come together to create a very unique smell that I have not had before. I highly recommend the smell of this candle.
Overall, I would definitely recommend this candle. Its good looks, high fragrance throw, and delicious smell would compliment any home, leaving you with a clean, great scent. While it is very pricey for its small size, I find it to be a good option to test out a smell before buying a more expensive larger nest candle.
