CBV Oh how I love thee!

Candles by Victoria has been a love of mine now for over three years.  I first discovered the company through Youtube beauty videos, specifically Lepooke.  While I haven’t tried as many scents as I would have liked, I’m slowly working on that!  I think I’ve really got down what type of scents I like and discovering some new ones I didn’t think I would like.  I’ve always been a bakery girl, but I’ve found that through CBV, I am starting to really love fruity scents too.  I think with my next order I will try to get into a few florals.  Eeek!  Like many people, I suffer from migraines and can’t handle a strong floral smell because they’re instant triggers, but maybe the ones mixed with fruit or that have soft in the description I might try.  No other candle company has made me want to try their floral scents, so that’s really saying something!

 I have a constant wish list for Candles by Victoria, and it’s ever-growing.  Youtube reviews are my favorite to watch, and I think it really helps to get others opinions on scents since you’re ordering online and you can’t sniff before you buy.  Also, the Pouring Pot message board on CBV’s website is extremely helpful.  I don’t think I’ve ever asked a question on there without it being answered the same day.  The search bar is also really useful when looking for a particular scent review.  Everyone on there is very friendly and sweet.   

As far as the candles themselves, they’re the best I’ve tried.  Good strong scents, clean burns and long lasting wax are some of the things I really appreciate from Candles by Victoria.  I’ve never had an issue with tunneling or with the wicks drowning, it’s always a nice clean burn all the way to the bottom of the jar.  Speaking of the jars, I love the country look of the mason jars, but Victoria also has other types of jars if you want to match your décor.  She has options on some of her jars to add glitter and to specify the color of the wax, you can even create your own scent!  What other candle company can you do that with? 

This is my rave review of the company Candles by Victoria.  If you have any suggestions, please let me know!  I think I will try to do some individual reviews for some of the scents I have tried, which might be helpful.  To order from Candles by Victoria, go to http://www.candlesbyvictoria.com/ .
