Scent isn't immediate
So I will start off by saying, I love the smell of this candle. It is LOVELY. That being said, it did take about 1/4 of the candle before I even caught any scent at all.After about 1 - 2 hours of burn time, It started to produce a great scent. That's the only negative thing I have to say about the candle. Otherwise its great and I have nothing but good things to say.

Candle box came ripped
This candle was intended as a gift but the box top was ripped upon arrival so I'm not sure I want to gift it like that. Too bad because it's a brilliant idea and well designed.

This candle LITERALLY smells like you're listening to "All I Want For Christmas" by Mariah Carey. It's pine-y, woodsey, and is a great way to get into the Holiday spirit without having to buy a tree (especially if you're allergic) 100% recommend and will be burning well past christmas. (Also THESE BURN FOREVER!!!!)

If a smell could capture the feeling of being around the fire with family and friends on a snowy night with with all the fun and no drama it would be the Holiday candle from Homesick! Love it!

Scent is lacking
It's a pretty candle, but the scent was not what I expected and left much to be desired.
