As the nights draw in and winter nears, we know shoppers are spending a lot more time indoors snuggled up on the couch. Gadgets like heated blankets and festive tipples are perfect for creating that cosy autumn atmosphere, but don’t forget to set the scene with your favourite scent too.
Last week our shoppers went crazy for this Woodwick Crackling Fireside Candle, claiming it sounded and smelt “just like a real fire”. To keep you in the loop, we’ve now spotted this Linen Ellipse Candle in a gorgeously modern shape and fragrance, also reduced by a fantastic 15 percent.
Longer and flatter than a traditional burner, this Woodwick Crackling Ellipse Candle “looks so good on the lounge table” or as a centrepiece in any room. It’s scented with a “lovely, fresh” linen fragrance that gently fills the room alongside the “relaxing” sound of the crackling wick.
The patented wooden wick of these crackling candles creates a long, dancing flame and distinctive noise for a sophisticated and “therapeutic” fireside feel. Even better, this linen fragrance gives a “nice, light scent” that’s “not overpowering” and lasts for ages – even with the lid off.
Shoppers agree that Woodwick candles are a fantastic investment since they “burn more evenly” and last longer than other brands. This loyal customer notes: “Just love these candles. Worth paying that bit extra for the real thing rather than copycat versions.”
This particular Woodwick Crackling Ellipse Candle will last you a whopping 50 hours of burn time, creating a consistent and pleasant fragrance that fills the room thanks to its wide opening that produces a fully melted wax pool. If you’d rather try a more wintery fragrance, take a look at these Black Cherry, Fireside, Cinnamon Chai and Warm Woods aromas – perfect for creating a Christmas vibe.
Woodwick candles are extremely popular amongst Amazon shoppers, and this particular scent has earned a fabulous 4.7 out of five star rating, with over 900 bought in the last month alone. These delighted shoppers testified: “My favourite a candles and a beautiful scent! Love these candles so much! It arrived well package and was very quick delivery! Such a lovely fresh scent perfect for the bathroom! Love listening to the cracklings sounds whilst chilling in the bath! Perfect!”
This happy buyer said: “Great smell and the crackling sound really makes you feel like you’re sitting buy a fire. It’s lovely year round, but is particularly appreciated in Autumn/winter for providing that ‘fireside’ feeling.“
Another added: “Looks so good on the lounge table. Bought this for as a Christmas gift and they loved it. Burns nicely and smells nice. Not overpowering just a nice light scent. Love the wick.”
One happy customer commented: “I prefer WoodWick candles to other brands as they always smell amazing and I love the crackle they make when lit. I haven’t had the linen one before and wasn’t disappointed, great lasting fragrance, you can even smell it when it’s not lit if the lid is off. It has a good burn time and is useful that the lid doubles up as a heat resistant mat.”
This Woodwick Crackling Ellipse Candle customer commented: “The smell is so fresh! I love the relaxing sound of the crackling wick. Would recommend 10/10. I left it overnight and it still had over half of the wax left. Woodwick candles are a great alternative to regular candles as they burn more evenly.”
The majority of reviews were positive, but this disappointed shopper said: “I will say it can be tricky to light the whole wick to get an even burn.” Though they did note it had a “nice scent“.
