I purchased several of the holiday votives to give as gifts this year. While most of them are still waiting to be given I have enjoyed the scent of these beautifully crafted candles boxed in my work room.
This is going to be a Christmas gift. The shipping and delivery was excellent! It is beautifully packaged, and I know it will be an appreciated gift.
The scent is fantastic and the strength of the candle is also great. Some of their other candles only faintly smell when burned. This is my new favorite!
This candle's packaging is a bit more elevated than Lodestone's other scents. However, the black wax does not burn as cleanly as competitors' and tunnels a bit even after three hours burn time. If you want a mild, discrete scent this is the candle for you. If you want a strong throw and intense scent that lingers for hours after the candle is blown out, this is not the candle for you.
Should we take that as an endorsement? Ha! You are not the first. And, you are in good company!
I love this scent, it’s wonderful. But the issue is the strength of it. I burn this candle in a smaller room, and even then the scent has trouble filling it up.
After shipping, I spent $59.05, making it one of the more expensive ones I’ve bought. Definitely not worth the money. Still a fine scent though, if a little weak.
Hello, William. Thank you so much for your honest appraisal. We believe in our products and we take it very seriously when they don’t meet expectations. After the Rain is one of our top sellers. Like all our products, our Fret-Free Guarantee applies to this one. We’d really appreciate the chance to make this right. We’ve email you directly to help out.
I love how this candle burns, I love the packaging ( perfect for gifting), but most of all I love, love, love the scent of this candle- subtly floral, very fresh, not overpowering. Use many of your candles and all are great, but for spring/ summer/ actually any season this is a favorite!
Thank you for your rave review, Sarah! We are pleased to have added some joy to your home!
I first discovered Sakura at Longwood Gardens Gift Shop. When I returned wanting to buy more Lodestone candles they were no longer carrying them. I'm so glad I found your website. I just love Sakura. Lovely scent. Thank you.
Hi Maria, you may have just caught a time when Longwood was simply sold out! We’ve since replenished their stock. We are, of course, happy you found us online too!
If there is an imperfection, I certainly couldn't find it. It's perfect in every way as usual. Lavender and Sandalwood is my absolute favorite!
All the candles burn beautifully and smell divine and this one is no exception. Very very happy with my selection.
Purchased several of these over the holidays for myself and for gifts. The frangance is so wonderful that I ordered more. Added bonus is how elegantly they are presented and how long they last.
Thank you so much for the praise, Bonnie. Festal Forest was one of our first. It has stayed around for a reason. Our customers love it!
I love this candle and burn it year round. The scent is so luxurious, I never get tired of it.
Amazing!! As are all of the Lodestone candles I've tried. I especially love all of the winter themed candles including Winter Berry & Cypress and Holiday Hearth.
Lodestone candles are amazing. I love their holiday scents, but honestly every scent is great. I have burned all the other high end brands and Lodestone by far the best.
Snug is the perfect candle for snuggling in front of the tv or fireplace during cold winter nights. It also is my 19 year old son's new favorite candle!
Thank you, Kimberly! You are correct. I know this because that’s the test we put to it. We’re so happy you love it too.
