Unlike my lavender candle, I cannot smell this candle when burning. It is about as aromatic as a $x large mart candle which I thought I had gotten away from. But at 5 times the price for no smell.... I'd like to return this candle. Smells fine unlit with ones face buried in the jar. As I type the candle is one foot away burning and I cannot smell it. I guess YC's are hit or miss. Every time I smelled one in someone else's home it was very strong. I will no longer purchase until I have smelled one burning.
