Neom Christmas candles

15 replies

Hello

Has anyone tried either the perfect peace or Christmas wish candles please? Some pretty good offers on neom and would like something festive but the reviews are a little mixed especially for perfect peace, some say it has very little scent. But I really like the thought of the essential oil mix in it. Thanks so much

I got one a couple of years ago and didn't rate it at all. Was really disappointed as I generally like their stuff.

@Girlintheframe

Wish one was it please?

I had a box with the red and gold ones in a couple of years ago and thought they were lovely, especially the gold one, which might be the Perfect Peace one. I find candle reviews always have a few complaints about the scent not being strong but some people love really strong Yankee type things and that's their benchmark.

Thanks @Lamentations. I know what you mean about some people preferring very strong scents therefore not enjoying subtle more natural ones.

I loved the Wish one from last year. Very beautiful and traditionally Christmassy with clementine being a strong notes. However, it didn't lat too long especially if you are wrapping presents while drinking fizz. It did make present wrapping, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day feel wonderful. Is that worth £40?

I mean the candle itself doesn't last too long but the smell does fill the room.

I love perfect peace. I rarely use the candles anymore, I find the oils much better value. I didn’t like Christmas Wish at all, and on paper I should have loved it.

Thanks all - very helpful!

I have last years Christmas candles, not lit yet, but they still feel the room with their scent. It's lovely

I’ve got the Christmas oils. I don’t think it smells christmassy at all. Still lovely, just not Christmas.

I've just been gifted the perfect peace candle and lit it about 15 mins ago. The room is already starting to smell beautifully fragrant

I get a 3 wick Christmas wish every year. The smell is beautiful, good throw the whole of downstairs smells of it.

Space NK is another really good Christmas smell that scents the house. Both are my favourites.

I also treat myself to a large Christmas Wish one each year, I love it, love the tonka bean scent.

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 21/11/2021 00:47

I had them last year and thought they were great in terms of scent and throw, but burnt down really quickly.

NotMyCat · 21/11/2021 09:30

I have a three wick one from last year and find it strong with good throw
