Vellabox is a monthly candle subscription box that delivers top quality, natural candles from artisan makers across the USA. Every month they send you a different candle curated to their scent preferences and the season. Every candle featured in the box is made with 100% natural wax, clean fragrance, and cotton-braided wicks - guaranteed non-toxic, cruelty-free, and vegan.
In addition, you'll receive a surprise "lifestyle" item chosen along the same health-forward lines, from businesses with a focus on natural products and social good. They offer three box sizes that range in price, depending on subscription duration: the Lucerna (starting at $12/month), the Ignis (starting at $22/month), and the Vivere (starting at $29/month).
This is a review of the "Vivere" 16 oz. candle and gift box.

First Impressions
Disconnect to connect: Vellabox
I love technology, but definitely find this month's Vellabox quote incredibly accurate. "Disconnect to connect" has been my motto as of late, and paired with a candle and some family time is exactly how I want to spend my down time. This month's candle encompassed all of the relaxing feels and created an ambience that can't be beat. Paired with a surprise gift and Spotify playlist, and you've got yourself an entire experience rather than just a box!
What's Inside the Box
Borough Home "Daybreak" - Retail Value $40.00
Candles are my signal to the world that I have completed my tasks for the day and it is now time to relax. I typically choose scents that feature earthy notes like lavender and cedar, so this month's pick was absolutely perfect. Created with notes of lavender, bay, and tobacco leaf, this candle is the epitome of relaxation. While the lavender is the most present in this candle, the subtle hint of tobacco creates a scent throw that just can't be beat. Filling my living room with the perfect amount of flavor, my husband (who is sensitive to strong candles), really enjoyed the tame fragrance this blend gave off, and let me keep it lit for the majority of the evening! With a springy yellow label, this candle is just in time for the changing season!
Borough Home is a company founded in 2021 by Laura Lutz. Creating scents nostalgic for her home state of Hawaii, she works to create products that transform spaces. Creating small-batch, hand-poured soy candles, these truly are very fine products and fragrances!
Now for the secret item!
"Lucky" Air Fresheners - Set of 2 - Retail Value $12
After 6 years, I finally upgraded my car and bought myself a "new" used car! Upgrading to leather, I am bound and determined to keep this car more clean than the old tan cloth I had. To spruce up the scent, I received two "Lucky" air fresheners, and couldn't be more happy! Featuring notes of cool water, ozone, and flower petals, this scent is light, crisp, and very springlike. Another great inclusion - I love this month's box!
Was This Box Worth It?
The Cost: $29
Vellabox is one of my all time favorite subscriptions, and this month was fantastic. With a beautifully lavender scented candle and two spring scented air fresheners, this curation was perfectly suited to March. With the combination of the candle, surprise item, and Spotify playlist, this subscription continues to leave me impressed. I already can't wait to see what's in store for April!
