CierraCandles - Review

Karan from CierraCandles is excellent to work with. Her professional way of dealing with customers makes you feel like you are the only customer she has. My orders have all arrived promptly and whenever I open up a parcel from Cierra I am always extremely pleased with how well packaged the items are. She has some excellent products - see below.

Mango - This really is a *mango* scent. It has a wonderfully strong scent throw and the fragrance is crisp, juicy - not too bitter and not to sweet. It is just right!
Cappuccino Bruleé - I tried a sample of this scent and liked it very much. It has a terrific throw and as it was burning it smelled just like a steaming mug of cappuccino. Coffee/chocolate.
Chocolate Brownie - This smells exactly like a fresh made, chocolate brownie! It is so delicious! You just want to drink it from the bottle!
Home Sweet Home - This is a difficult scent to identify and describe with justice!! It is a touch of spice in a "floral" surrounding!


I haven't had the pleasure of trying more fragrances from Cierra yet, but that will change in due course!! I do use a lot of other supplies from them ....


Cello bags - these are perfect for packaging candles in. They are available in several different sizes and are so inexpensive. I used to individually wrap each candle in cellophane, but now I simply plop it into a bag, fold down and tape over the excess, label and it is ready to go!!!

Votive boxes - These white boxes have a transparent lid and are perfect to fit a dozen votive candles in. I use them for display, to transport the candles and when the lids eventually get trashed (I cart them all over the place with me and really put them through their paces!) the surviving white boxes make ideal storage trays for loose labels!!

Digital Postal Scales - Measuring scent has never been easier!!! Place an empty styrofoam cup on the scales, zero them out to take into account the weight of the cup and pour in the required amount of fragrance oil. You will probably surprise yourself at how much an ounce of fragrance oil actually is! My scent throw was always good before, but since I have been weighing my fragrances rather than measuring by volume, the scent throw I get is even better!

Molds - The first metal molds I bought were from CierraCandles. A great selection at great prices.

Neat stuff! - Cierra also have a lot of what they call "neat stuff" like oil burners etc that I haven't used yet but drool over all the time! You will need to visit the site for the latest they are offering.
