Smells like a real Christmas tree without the needle cleanup
I love having a real tree but I hate vacuuming pine needles for three weeks. This candle is the best of both worlds. The balsam cedarwood is fresh and crisp—exactly like walking into a Christmas tree lot. I light it during the holidays and my whole apartment smells festive.
smells like the mountains
The balsam cedarwood scent is fresh and woodsy—reminds me of hiking. The single wick burns even. Would buy again.
Good for surviving the cold months
When it's freezing outside I light this candle and suddenly my apartment feels cozy instead of cold. The balsam cedarwood is warm and grounding—makes me feel like I'm in a cabin somewhere. I've been burning it all winter and it's still going strong.
Reminds me of camping trips
My family used to go camping every summer in the mountains. This candle smells exactly like those trips—pine trees, fresh air, a campfire in the distance. I light it when I'm missing the outdoors. The 6.7oz size sits on my bookshelf and the single wick throws just enough for my living room. Good for bringing back memories.
Helps me sleep better
I struggle with sleep when the days get shorter. This balsam cedarwood candle helps. The woodsy scent is grounding and calming. I light it about an hour before bed and it signals to my brain that it's time to wind down.
Great for my home gym
This balsam cedarwood candle freshens up the space and makes it feel like I'm exercising in the woods. The scent is energizing but not overpowering
My artificial tree finally smells real
I have a fake Christmas tree because of allergies. This candle makes it smell like I went out and cut down a real one. The balsam cedarwood scent is fresh and authentic—like a forest in winter. I put it under the tree and my whole living room smells like Christmas.
Good value for the price
I keep this in my home office and it makes the whole room feel like a mountain cabin. The balsam and cedarwood blend is authentic and not overpowering
Fresh pine without being chemical
The 6.7oz size is perfect for my living room and the single wick burns evenly. Good throw for a smaller candle. Will buy again next holiday season.
Perfect for post-hike evenings
I live in Colorado and spend weekends hiking in the mountains. This candle is my way of bringing that fresh pine forest smell into my apartment afterward. It's authentic—not like those fake Christmas tree candles. The 6.7oz size is perfect for my small space and the single wick burns clean. Will be buying the big size soon.
The only candle my dog doesn't react to
My dog is weirdly sensitive to candles—she sneezes or leaves the room with most scents. This one she ignores completely, which is the highest compliment. The balsam cedarwood is natural and not perfumey. I keep it in the living room and burn it nightly. Finally found something we both enjoy.
Reminds me of my grandpa's workshop
My grandpa was a woodworker and his shop always smelled like cedar and pine. This candle takes me right back to watching him build furniture in his garage. It's nostalgic without being sad. I light it when I'm working on my own projects. The single wick burns evenly and lasts longer than I expected.
My Christmas decoration that actually gets used
I have a box of holiday decorations that sit in storage 11 months a year. This candle is the exception—it stays out year-round because I can't put it away. The balsam cedarwood scent is fresh enough for spring, warm enough for winter. Burns clean and the 6.7oz size fits anywhere. My favorite impulse buy of the year.
Takes me back to Maine every time
I grew up in Maine and spent every Christmas in a little cabin in the woods. This candle smells exactly like those memories—fresh balsam, crackling fire, snow falling outside. The first time I lit it, I actually got emotional. It's that authentic. The cedarwood adds this warm, cozy depth that makes it feel like more than just a "Christmas tree" candle. It's the scent of home. I buy three every year now—one for me, two for gifts.
I thought "Christmas tree" candles were tacky... I was wrong
I usually avoid pine or balsam scents because they remind me of those cardboard trees people hang from their rearview mirrors. But this one was a gift, and I finally lit it on a snowy night. Okay, I get it now. It's not that fake, aggressive pine smell—it's warm and woody and actually sophisticated. The cedarwood really balances out the balsam and keeps it from being overwhelming. My whole apartment felt like a cozy lodge.
Not just for December—I burn this all winter
I bought this for the holidays but honestly? I'm burning it through February. There's something about the combination of fresh balsam and warm cedarwood that makes even the gloomiest January day feel cozy. It's woodsy without being pine-sol fake, fresh without being sharp. I keep it in my living room and it makes my whole apartment feel like a mountain cabin. My non-candle-obsessed husband actually said, "This one's a keeper." High praise.
My whole house smells like a $200 Christmas tree
I'm that person who buys a real tree the day after Thanksgiving and is sad when it comes down in January. This candle is my off-season fix. The balsam is so authentic—like walking through a snow-covered forest—and the cedarwood adds this warm, grounding base that keeps it from being too sharp. I lit it during a holiday party and multiple guests asked if I'd just brought a tree inside. The 34oz jar is massive and the 3-wick throw is insane. This is Christmas in a jar.
Fresh, clean, and so relaxing
Love this scent! It's like walking through a forest after a rain—fresh balsam with that warm cedarwood undertone. Not sweet at all, just natural and calming. Perfect for my living room. Burns evenly and lasts a long time. Will buy again
Smells like a Christmas tree farm
This little candle is so festive! The balsam is fresh and piney, and the cedarwood adds a warm, earthy base. I burn it all December long. Makes my whole bedroom smell like a winter wonderland. Great throw for the size
Fresh, woodsy, and calming 🌲
Love this scent. It's like walking through a forest—fresh balsam with that warm cedarwood undertone. Not too sweet, just natural and clean. Great throw for a small candle. I keep it in my bathroom and it's so relaxing
