Pomegranate..it's their Jo Malone copy!

I like the blackberry bay but it's rarely available. Pomegranate, fig and rose all nice too.

If you like sweet ones, the almond and macaroon one is nice.

Do they actually smell when lit? I’ve had some very disappointing ones and thought you had to spend big money to get a nice smell?

I've only had one from there however it was actually the one that smelt the strongest So I'd definitely buy from there again

Blackberry and Bay (if you can get it) is a dupe for Diptyque Bais.

The Lime (and something) is a dupe for Jo Malone Lime Basil and Mandarin and the pomegranate is too as said by a PP.

Ooh, love almond and macaroon and also like blackberry bay. Much prefer the Reed diffusers though as they last for ages, only ever bought one Aldi candle and didn't think the scent was very strong when lit.

Almond and macaron one but they never have it lately.
I googled it studio now do it and was £20 big jump from £3.99 in aldi.

Im gonna try the pomegranate one next

I thought blackberry and bay was a dupe for jo malone blackberry and bay. That’s my fav one and always pick one up if I see one in store as they’re not often in stock

Another vote for almond and macaron, not sure if they've discontinued it though as can't find it every time I've been there.

Thank god for this post, as my bunker is in desperate need of some artificial scent!

The giant red roses one they did for Valentine’s Day. Or Pomegranate.

QueenOfHiraeth · 06/03/2022 23:54

None of them have much scent when lit

SoupDragon · 07/03/2022 07:33

I do tend to go for the scent diffusers rather than candles. They give a great scent.

It's currently available as one of a set of 3 scents online.
