November 2019 Ignis Vellabox Review
The candle arrives in a reusable drawstring bag. This one is a very rustic burlap-type fabric.
And each box comes with an info card detailing the candles featured that month:
Now, on to the candle!
Pears and Brandy Candle by Waxxy & Co, 8 oz - Retail Value $18.00
Fruity scents can be hit or miss for me, but I usually do indulge a little during the holidays because my husband loves them. Pears are also his favorite fruit, so how could I deny him? To my nose, this candle is too sweet, but that brandy undertone gives it a little spice and depth, which does help. When lit, it is borderline boozy! I added a few drops of sandalwood essential oil to mine while it was burning and it turned it into a much better fit for my house while still making Will happy. If you love sweet holiday scents, this will be a winner!
This is a 100% soy candle with a cotton wick. It burns nice and even and is made in Florida.
And each Vellabox also comes with a little treat like a food or beauty item:
KIND Oats and Honey Bar, 1.2 oz - Buy a box of 15 for $9.99
Yum! This bar has just the right balance of chewy and crunch! The sweet but earthy mix of honey, oats, and grains was delicious.
Verdict: This month's Vellabox wasn't quite my type of candle, but I made it work. My husband actually loved this one, and I would guess most folks will, I am just weird about food smells. The candle itself was very high quality and highly fragranced. I really love it when they arrive in those amber jars because the warm light on a cold night is beautiful.
