I purchased this candle as a Mother's Day gift for my Mom. It's actually quite difficult to find natural/organic candles in the U.S. Let me tell you, it's an experience from unboxing, to the visuals, to the very fragrant scent.
I was a little concerned since the candle was coming from Hong Kong to the U.S., but Frika Nature clearly takes pride in their products since it was packaged exceptionally well and made the journey around the globe undisturbed.
Part of the reason no damage came to the candles is because these candles are shipped in its own individual wooden boxes. (I ordered several because these are TOO good of gift options for upcoming birthdays and holidays.) Frika Nature has an eye for detail because the boxes don't just serve as protection during shipping, but are attractive enough to keep for display or to hold for safe keeping when not in use. It's not even the focal point of the product, but it's a nice touch in it of itself. My Mom plans to repurpose the box because of the quality.
The candle itself is beyond stunning. The organic soy wax is a minimalistic cream color, but is adorned with beautiful amethyst that's carefully scatters on the top layer of the candle. My Mom absolutely loves the color purple and amethyst, so the product has the feel of being tailor-made for her.
Now the big thing, the scent. Personally, I am VERY cautious when it comes to candle scents because sometimes they can be too overbearing. And while this candle's scent is strong, it's not obnoxious at all. It somehow maintains a light aroma despite being dispersed quite generously through the air.
My relatives were a little on the jealous side when my Mom opened her candle because it's the total package! It's beautiful, smells nice, and doesn't even have to be lit to have a pleasant smell.
My Mom told me that she doesn't want to light it because she likes it so much. But I assured her, I would order more in the future for her. I even had my relatives immediately ask me where I purchased the candle because they want some for themselves.
Seriously, if you need a gift idea, this is the one. Or, if you're an avid candle or mineral lover, just do yourself a favor and buy one. Thanks Frika Nature, you have some amazing products!!!
