Of the three candles I bought just before Thanksgiving, Cottage Hearth is the first one I have begun burning in my small home (condo). I want to make all of them last as long as possible! :-)
The vanilla hit me first upon removing the lid, but then the smoke followed. It seems to be the aroma that lingers with the chestnut snuggled in between. It's wonderfully cozy, especially on our first wintry nights this year. It brings back memories of falling asleep with my little sister on our living room floor in front of the fireplace ... and walking through our neighborhood where smoke swirled upward from many other chimneys ... and breathing in the aromas of favorite holiday foods being prepared.
Love, love, love this candle! Thank you, and very happy holidays to you!
