This is a very classic looking candle and I love the way it looks on my arts and crafts style desk space. Love your English Library scent with this but I also love how I can choose from many fragrance options to begin with. So cool!
My home has been truly been elevated by this lovely Cottage Garden candle in “Garden Party” scent- The perfect candle for anyone who loves earthy, botanical, clean scents and beautiful home decor.
I’m loving the fact that because it's phthalate-free and made from a coconut-apricot blend, it burns super clean without any nasty black soot or toxins polluting our air quality. Super big plus in my opinion!
I hate not being able to repurpose empty candle jars due to the wax residue and soot. These candle jars are perfect for repurposing with their clean burn and beautiful design – I look forward to using this as an organizer or a little planter in the future.
I am completely enamored with this candle. The container alone is a work of art, featuring a stunning, vibrant print of William Morris’s iconic "Strawberry Thief" design.
The burn quality is amazing too. The coconut and apricot wax blend melts completely flat and even, so no wasted wax at all. Plus, I love that they use phthalate-free oils. It gives me total peace of mind knowing it’s a clean, safe burn for my home.
And the scent? Wow! It smells exactly like ancient abbey incense—filling the room with this lovely, peaceful vibe. It is the perfect cozy-day candle!
This is a super cool design and my candle burned great with no tunneling! I got this in the Garden Party scent. Love that I can customize the look to the scent notes I most like. :)
This is the perfect candle for my office. The English Library scent smell is nice and light and is a great backdrop for reading and working. The candle quality is high and I love the retro plane.
This candle is beautiful. The design is timeless and goes perfectly in my living room. I got the lavender scent and am usually pretty particular about candle scents. This one is the perfect balance between clean and light while also filling the room. I would definitely recommend for a common living space. It also came in a very giftable box so is easy to purchase for an out-of-town friend because it ships so well and is fun to open.
I purchased the Gatsby candle in the scent Latin Mass. I can say, without exaggeration, that it is the best smelling candle I have ever purchased. I have honestly never had a candle like it. I will CERTAINLY be buying again!!
I will continue to purchase from Retrovert as the burn is clean and the quality is the best that I have ever experienced. I'm so happy to have come across this candle company.
