This candle is a perfect testament of ambivalence. Even before removing the lid, its strong and delectable scent is noticeable. The entire household loves the cherry/almond combination, and the artisan touches on the jar/lid choice and surface wax nodules make this an attractive candle. This was larger than anticipated, too, which is usually a bonus... However, the size leads to the problem of only a single wick. Tunneling is a massive problem; very apparent after letting it burn for two three-hour periods. It's evident this candle needs two or three wicks--the single one only burns about half the surface area. This is most unfortunate for what could be a solid winner. I would only buy this candle again if they fix the tunneling/wicks problem. For the price (we buy from candle companies all across the spectrum), I expect a candle like this to perform without issue. Everything else about this candle is great!
