The jar is beautiful and will be a nice décor piece after the candle has been burned. This candle came packaged very well. The scent right out of the box before burning is strongly reminiscent of soap, but settles down somewhat when it has been out of the box and aired out. The scent while burning is much less reminiscent of soap, but is more floral than expected. I would say the scent is equal notes sandalwood and light florals. I love that it has a wood wick.
