I purchased the full sized Coconut and Lime Glasshouse candle as a treat - a luxurious, highly scented and beautiful candle to light over the winter. The scent is fresh, sweet and powerful. Even lifting the lid off without lighting the candle fills the room with a lovely scent. This candle has two wicks which creates a very cosy feel in the room.
I am disappointed in the way that this candle burns. Despite letting it burn for a particularly long time on first use, it burns unevenly and not completely to the edges. This means that I am going to be left with a lot of excess wax around the edges of the candle. Often, one of the wicks will go out, leaving only one burning. There is no breeze around to make this happen and I have never had this trouble with other candles.
The scent is the best part about this candle; however, it is not enough to make me repurchase it. With quite a high price point, I will stick to other brands that are better quality with a lower price.
The majority of people who have this candle love it! I unfortunately don't, I am definitely in the minority with this. I was given this candle for a Christmas present, my first impression was that the packaging was really nice, the box is cute and the glass jar makes the candle look really classy and one that you would want on display in your house. Tahaa is very sweeeeet, sickly sweet (for me). I don't light this candle as it is just too sweet for me- walking into Wellington Peter Alexander will let you know exactly what the scent is like. I do however have this in my bathroom on display and it has a wee smell to it which is nice, in that environment. Pretty much it is a ornament in my house :)
Tips: I wouldn't recommend this as a gift for someone who does not like sweet things. The packaging is really nice and looks cute sitting somewhere :)
