I love everything lavender, and all the reviews on this scented candle. I also like that the throw is strong, but this scent is not for me. It is way too sour and artificial for me. It reminds me of a floral-lemon scented spray cleaner. It may be good if you enjoy something like that. I had to put it out after 10 minutes and open all my windows, and light up Balsam and Cedar instead. I would mail it back in for an exchange, but the shipping cost wouldn't justify the cost of the candle.
