Absolutely love this candle! It smells fresh and really does have hints of the ocean and the beach. Beautiful in the bathroom for a relaxing soak, fantastic in the bedroom to help you sleep. A peaceful, joyful smell that never fails to please. The throw gets stronger as the candle burns and I can smell this throughout the house. My only complaint is that the wick burnt very dirty and deposited lots of black bits into the pretty blue wax.
