Product Insights
Flambette's Raspberry And Vanilla Scented Candle offers a clean, slow burn of up to 56 hours from 100% soy wax, with a patented wooden wick that crackles like a fireplace. Its moderate, variable throw is inconsistent, ranging from weak to room-filling, and scent quality varies between batches—some buyers detect a medicinal or chemical note when lit, while others find it sweet and candy-like. Achieving optimal performance requires careful first burn, wick trimming, and draft-free placement.

Disappointment with Raspberry Vanilla candle
Same. I had this and raspberry mimosa and couldn't wait for them to burn down so I could dispose of them. I did not want to feel that way but they both are not good IMO.
