We have a working fireplace, but stopped using it because of the mess. I missed the smell and the ambiance, so I bought this candle and placed it on the hearth in the hope of recreating both. Instantly, the room was cozy. The smell was fragrant, rich, and woodsy. The long wick created a beautiful look. 

The only problem is that we burned it so often, it was gone all too soon. Going to buy two next time so I have a back-up ready.
