I am burning this in my kitchen right now. I am 2 rooms down the hall and cannot smell it, but if I walk into the kitchen I can smell the fresh Raspberry. Very subtle, but a TRUE Raspberry smell. (Not a sweet candy scent). Overall, I enjoy this candle. Burns nicely, beautiful color, and nice light scent. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone who is trying to cover up a smell (smoke, pets etc) but I certainly recommend to anyone who enjoys light, true fruity scents.
