Wood Wick Candles Are Soooo Romantic! By JenniferB on Jul 18, 2008 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

My Woodwick Candle from the Virginia Candle Company is by far my favorite candle that I own and I have tons! It is unique in that as the name says, it has a wood wick that crackles just like a fire when it is burning. It creates a wonderful, relaxing, calming, romantic atmosphere. It's just like I have a fire on when I light it!

Mine is the McIntosh scent (apple) and it smells fantastic. The fragrance is strong, but not overwheming. It is a deep red color. Boy do they have tons of scents available - very different too! I bought my friend the Mojito scent and it smells great and it's a pretty lime green color - she loves it! Some of the other ones that sound appealing are Water Lilly, Zinfandel, Almond Orange, Sangria, Lemon Chiffon, and Cashmere (I wonder what this smells like?)

I purchased mine at a local beauty shop and it cost $18, but I've seen it for a little less online. Although, the price I paid is well worth it! It will last for 100 hours and it burns very evenly - no hole in the center around the wick. I have the 10 oz glass jar with an attractive wood lid. This would be a great gift for a guy too since the candle doesn't look girly at all!
