I have always found even expensive scented candles rather disappointing. They smell nice when you sniff them in the shop, but get them home and light them and the scent is often so subtle you don't notice it. Then they smoke horribly when you blow them out and you finally get a nasty acrid smell of smoke out of them!I am also a sucker for open fires but I live in a tiny modern flat with electric heaters, and I do miss even the glow of a gas fire, let alone a real one!So this intrigued me. I'd never heard of a wooden wick before, or one which created a tiny mini-fire instead of just a small flame, and I loved the idea of a sound of crackling wood! It also said it burnt clean.It's a beautiful product.Thick glass, lovely thick wooden top with a monogram on top - it looks and feels well made and expensive (as it shoud of course given the price).The wooden wick works beautifully - you get a lovely long dancing frame and yes a nice crackling sound - it's subtle of course, but in a small darkened room which is quiet you can hear it and it creates a lovely effect. I have uploaded a video of it and you should be able to hear the crackling I think if you listen carefully and maybe turn your volume up!When I blew it out it went out easily and near-instantly with zero smoking and no nasty smell or fumes - perfect! Easier to blow out that a normal candle with a tiny flame.The scent filled a medium-sized room very well - it's the only scented candle I have known which really does engulf the room in scent - it was almost too strong - so ensure you're not expecting just a subtle background scent - and it does linger long after the blow it out.My main disappointment was the particular scent I tried - At The Beach. Obviously smell is down to personal taste, but the description was misleading. I could detect no coconut or citrus as claimed - it was a really strong, cloying floral/spicy scent which I hated. So make sure you don't rely on the description as I don't think you can trust them to be accurate. Make sure you find one in a shop and sniff first!Otherwise this meets all the claims made. It is expensive but it will last for ages and you can see it's a quality product. It blows out easily, burns very clean, no smoking, lovely crackling sound and big jumping flame. The scent is strong and fills a room easily. It's certainly better than any Yankee or other expensive standard candle I have tried.

I think I have a new favourite candle. Personally, I prefer softer scents that are neither flowery not too fruity - linen, cotton, vanilla, coconut - as I find this gives a lasting fragrance that you can live with and is not overpowering. A little bit spicy I don't mind however and there's a lovely blend in this WoodWick candle that I really like. My personal favourite candle in the past would have been the Yankee Candle Coconut Splash, but this WoodWick Island Coconut might have a little bit of an edge over it.The description provided for Island Coconut gives Pinapple as the top notes, but perhaps because of what I'm used to or what draws me to it I find the coconut scent stands out more for me,or perhaps it's just enhanced by the pineapple to give it a little more of sharpness. Whatever it is it has a sophisticated freshness and it quickly neutralises any other unpleasant smells of food or cooking in the house. I would associate it more as a summer scent, but it could be used any time of the year. If you're looking for something more seasonal for Christmas, I would recommend the Woodwick Crimson Berries.I've noticed that not everyone likes the distinctive wooden wicks for WoodWick, and like any candle wick there's always the chance that it doesn't light well. Personally, I had no problems with the 'Hourglass' style Woodwick Island Coconut, and found that it burned well. The candle comes sealed with a wooden lid which gives the candle an expensive yet rustic appearance (much more elegant than the Yankee jars). The lid seals tight to protect the candle and is easily removed with no difficulty. An added benefit of the lid is that it is designed to be placed under the candle when lit to act as a scorch proof mat. This is very clever as it elevates the candle and the lid looks so elegant as a base stand while protecting against any surface scorch damage.I think this would make an excellent gift and a good alternative for the familiar Yankee Candle. It's in the same price range but it's also in the same quality band, and it might even be that little more special.

This candle was well packed and I received it with no breakages in the glass or wooden lid. I'd not lit a candle with a wooden wick before so I went to the Woodwick website to see if there was anything I needed to be aware of. I'm glad I did and I would recommend you check it out as well to make sure you get the best out of your candle.From the Woodwick site - the recommended time you should burn the candle is 3-4 hours and you shouldn't extinguish it until the melted pool of wax has reached the glass - this way when you relight the candle the wax will be completely level. The site also explains about when you should trim the wood wick,that you should light the whole wick and about siting your candle.The candle is meant to evoke the beach and smell of tropical citrus, coconut and sea breeze. Hmmm. I didn't get any of that. It had a very nice smell but just like a nice perfume, maybe a little sandalwoody. The scent of it did permeate the room whilst it was burning but not in an overpowering way.I did initially find the wood wick slightly tricky to light but it was easier on subsequent lightings. I love the crackling sound it makes as it burns, though it's slightly more like static than burning wood. It would be great to light one of these on a winter evening.This candle is not cheap but I have been impressed with how long it's lasted so feel that it's worth the price. It would make a beautiful gift. It would be great if you could make use of the candle holder and lid as a container after the candle has burned.Overall - Stunning candle but make sure you check out the website so you get the best out of it.

Review is for the coconut candle. This is a multi page product so reviews may not correspond to the product you are looking at.This candle turned up in a Yankee Candle box and I thought it was a mis-pick item, but it is WoodWick, so I am guessing it is a Yankee Candle subsidiary?? The jar had a little greasy feel to it, but all was in good order and well packaged for the transport.The glass comes with a wooden top with rubber seal. The top is said to be suitable for a stand, but I wouldn't recommend it as it is polished wood and the glass slides too easily on it. The fragrance from the unburnt candle is a delicious blend of coconut and fruit. The unusual wooden wick certainly does crackle when lit,but to me the crackling is quite fast and sounds like a little more like a crackling gas burn than a gentle fireside, but it isn't unpleasant to listen to.The smell when burning is not overpowering and it certainly lifts the ambiance of the room and leaves a lingering coconut smell. It really does smell good enough to eat.EDIT: Originally gave this 4 stars, but after using it for several days now, guests have commented how nice the house smells. The scent really has lifted the ambience of the rooms. Absolutely love it, so much so that I have bought a larger one, which was even better packed than the small one. If you do get one, there is some instruction to rub off and remove any older charred wick to keep it short. You don't have to, but the wick might smoke a little until it burns down.

I am very amazed by the features that this stylish candle packs. Starting with the design, this candle comes in a sleek and well-crafted glass. It doesn’t have a boring cylindrical shape, but rather the glass narrows around the middle and widens on the extreme sides, making the design and shape very appealing. The cover is wooden and also very appealing in colour and build quality. I usually put it below the candle which adds extra elegance.Once lighted, the candle starts making some amazingly unique crackling sounds. It really mimics a fireplace and gives a feeling of warmth especially in these cold days. The sound is loud enough to be heard but not disturbing at all,so it can be placed nearby either while chilling or working.This scent in particular (At the beach) is not very intense compared to other WW candles I tried before, and this is what I like about it. As I work from home, I like scents to be less intense while working. I also prefer less intense scents when in small places like when taking a bath.This candle is very durable as it is claimed to last for up to 130 hours which I find really massive. It is the longest lasting candle I ever had. In fact it is amazing value for money compared to the small variant or the ellipse variant which last 60 hours and 50 hours respectively.

Firstly, this is a well-made and well-packaged candle. It arrived in a large box with inserts that held it firmly in place in the middle of the box, plus the outer packaging. The candle is in a super heavyweight glass leaf-shaped container that asks to be reused for something else once the candle is used up. The glass has a tightly fitting lid, with the instructions on the inside: the lid itself can act as a heat-proof stand for the candle.When I opened the lid, the fragrance hit me - overly citrussy/beachy - a little like cleaning sprays (sorry!), I couldn't smell any coconut at all. Following the instructions on how to light, I didn't have any problems getting it lit (I used a long match just in case).Once lit, the smell is slightly more mellow although there is a lot of it which might overpower in a small room. However, I still couldn't smell the coconut.The crackle noise from the flame is subtle but fun, and the long flame makes for a more interesting flame than candles with multiple wicks. It burned nice and cleanly. I have only used it once so far, but having let it burn for a few hours which is recommended, I hope it'll work just as well on subsequent lightings.

WoodWick's large candle is large and heavy but well worth getting if you love your scented candles. The quality is certainly up there with Yankee Candles and it has its own unique feature, too.The candle is shaped a little like an hourglass, though not as severe. As such, it is eye catching even without being lit. The lid can be placed underneath the candle as a heat resistant coaster, meaning that you can place it on a table without worrying about the surface. It has a good long wick which is easy to light.The main feature, aside from the scent, is that this is designed to crackle like a fire. it does this, though it's not as loud, and creates a nice atmosphere.In a dark room with the candle flickering you could almost imagine there was an open wood fire going.The scent of the Sand & Driftwood is not what I was expecting, in a good way. It has a mild spiciness to it, almost like incense and exotic spices rather than a beachy smell. It's not as strong as other candles we've had, though it can still fill a room with a soft scent.Overall very happy with Woodwick and will look to other candles in the range now that winter is coming,

WoodWick Hourglass Scented Candle is a lovely sophisticated looking candle, take off the thick wooden lid and you've a single elegant hourglass shaped candle - there is a label, which is raised, but it can be removed if wanted. I'm not sure I grasp he concept of the crackling wick, the sound is not even like white noise but more just irritating background noise - although I suppose it reduces chance of accidentally leaving it lit! The wick is a little difficult to get lit at first but at least it's not buried as can happen with other wicks. The candle and wick have a good long life to them, but I'm always a little baffled as to why candles cost so much,a cheaper candle may not be as nice but for the price difference it does the job.I prefer to keep my candles around without the lids so the scent can fill the room even when not being burned. Island Coconut smells amazing, even before using this candle it was sitting on a shelf and very time I entered the room I could smell it - compared with other candles, such as standard Yankee Candle, the scent of this candle is superior.

We had this yesterday and opened the really protective box to discover a delightful shaped hourglass/vase in which was housed a grey coloured candle. Upon opening we could smell the scent coming from the top of the candle it’s such a gentle scent too. The wick is not like a normal wick but a special style that looks much bigger and almost like a cross. We lit it for the first time and it was so lovely to both hear and see it flicker in the twilight of the dining room. The crackling sound reminds us of real fires back when every home had 2 or 3 burning in the grate everyday during the autumn and winter months. The wooden top of the holder is solid and can be used as a base on which to stand the candle.I’d agree with the instructions that burning the candle for about 4 hours is about right as you want this luxurious experience to last and send out its scent for as many sessions as possible. This is a very stylish product and one that makes you think about buying more as the year progresses. We think your visitors will be impressed with both how this looks and smells too.

Having been a massive fan of Yankee Candles for several years, I was excited to try this woodwick candle.Having got through the three boxes it came packaged in, which seems a tad excessive but ensures it arrives in one piece, I was impressed with the quality of the glass jar and the candle topper. The top is heavy and everything feels very premium. The scent of this candle is like a nice aftershave. It’s sophisticated and smells very pleasant, without being overbearing or smelling artificial. The added benefit of woodwick candles is the gentle, subtle crackling effect when burned. It’s quite comforting especially as the nights draw in.With regards to the “throw” which is the strength and reachability of the scent,it quickly filled the room within about half an hour. I did notice it burnt quicker than other candles, and it’s more expensive too, so you will find yourself replacing them more often.Overall I was very impressed. A lovely looking candle which has a strong, pleasant scent and looks and feels very expensive

Firstly the box amazon sent this in was big. Really big. Then inside the bog full of paper padding was another box. Incredibly inside that box was another shaped cardboard box with spindles to isolate it and then inside that was the candle ... wrapped in bubble wrap!!! I've accused some shippers recently of not protecting their products but these guys may have gone the other way. So no concerns then ... this is getting to you in 1 piece without fail.The candle jar itself is pretty big and the wick is not the traditional wick but more of a synthetic cross. There's also a warning that the candle fizzles. It certainly does but it's not a worrying sound but quite soothing. The smell is great as well.At first i thought the price may have been a bit over the top but the candle, jar, wooden lid etc. are all very well made and look like it's expensive and to be honest I think a couple of these candles around at Christmas would look very cool and homely. I thoroughly recommend this make and these candles. Very nice indeed.

As soon as we opened the box this WoodWick Medium Hourglass Candle comes in, the rather pleasant scent wafted out. Both my wife and I gave and immediate Ooooh Aaaaarrr of pleasure at the smell. Its described as "Island Coconut" but to me it was more reminiscent (get it) of custard. Sweet but not sickly or overpowering. The candle sits in an hour glass shaped glass with an attractive wooden lid. The wick is an X shape not your standard bit string like material, Its lights easily and makes a quiet crackling type sound as it burns. And as it burns the coconut fragrance really does begin to come through. It is really nice. We have dogs and two of them soon started to sniff the air when it was first lit.Then settled down to sleep. So it gets their approval too. After burning it all evening the next morning there's still a light fragrance in the air within the living room. Which was a pleasure to come down to first thing. All the wax stays within the glass so there's no mess either which is another plus.

Comes in a plain hourglass shaped container with a wooden top. At first I was not happy with the colour of the wax then realised it was supposed to represent wet sand, i used the top as base to sit candle on and the smell of wet sand hit me immediately before lighting it. When lit it there was the comforting sound of the fire crackling. Its a long time since I heard that. I had not heard of woodcock candles before but will certainly be using them more now. I like it24 th october Received medium candle with currant smellLove this candle. Comes in a slight hour glass shaped container with a wooden lid. The lid can be used to stand candle on when in use.i have used it for the advised 3 hours and found the smell delightful and very reminiscent of bygone Christmases. The red colour too will add to the Christmas decorationsI will definitely be keeping it for Christmas Day when we are having our first 'grown up ' christmas for many years so candles are permitted. I love it

The candle arrived well packaged and in a thick glass egg-timer shape, complete with an attractive rubber-sealed wooden lid. The lid doubles up as a heat resistant mat. The sludge grey (‘sand and driftwood’), whilst not necessarily the most attractive colour, in fact colour-blends well in most of the rooms in the house. The fragrance is a subtle aroma of sweet and citrus spices which does permeate and linger in the rooms long after the flame has been extinguished.The wick is a wooden cross which gives it that familiar crackling sound, reminiscent of a log fire burning. It burns for hours and can be extinguished and re-lit when needed (you may need to trim the wick using your fingers and removing the burnt bits).Please note, I have found that these candles do not burn the wax evenly.This may not be the cheapest candle on the market but it is certainly one of the best. It is priced at £22.49 (Amazon October 2018) and makes a super gift to give and receive!

Described as "Large", this is even larger than I expected. It comes exceptionally well packaged and protected, and the hour glass shaped holder and lid are beautifully designed. I must admit I normally buy other market leading candles, so this is my first experience of WoodWick, and I wasn't disappointed. The fragrance is lovely, subtle, and relaxing, as is the gentle crackling as it burns. In my opinion, every bit as good as the other top branded candles. The lid can be used as a stand for the candle holder during use.If you light it every day for a couple of hours, these large candles are going to last for weeks and weeks. Once finished the holder and lid can be used for handy storage of small items.I can highly recommend this WoodWick candle,and look forward to trying more from their range. I love using this type of candle, and so do my friends, so they make absolutely perfect gifts too.
