The candles arrived as described, in a neat jar with a nice classic black lid and a subtle transparent logo on the side.. The jar is full of great smelling wax and the cotton wick is a welcomed healthy option. Burns slowly and cleanly and right to the very bottom of the jar. No waste!. The scent is gentle and pleasant and nice when you walk into the room or come in from outside. ( I am burning one in my kitchen right now ). I had ordered three Acadian Forest and am on my last one ; I will be back for more!. Thank you to the Soap Company of Nova Scotia for offering online shopping, shipping to my home and a massive selection of products and scents.
