So there was some tweeting about these wonderful Tyler (Tyler, Texas) Candles a couple months back and I mentioned them as a Christmas gift idea for my brother who was flying to Seattle from Austin, Texas to stay with us for the holidays.
He gave me the Diva set which includes Goldleaves (jasmine, hyacinth, lilly, moss, musk), French Market (gardenia, tuberose), and English Ivy (blooming florals, ivy). I've already burned through Goldleaves (amazing!) and am currently enjoying French Market. Gorgeous, gorgeous scents! And just look at the packaging! (Presentation is so important, don't you think?)
They are very fragrant and I've found that to conserve, you can burn for just an hour or two but enjoy the scents for much longer. I couldn't find the type of wax used on the packaging so looked it up online where I read that they are a mix of soy wax and paraffin. I would prefer that they were all soy wax as I've heard it's much cleaner burning & better for your indoor air quality; I don't know what the percentage of each wax is. Other than that, these "hand-created" candles from Texas are absolutely fabulous.
If you don't live in Texas, these appear to be available at lots of boutiques and a few online shops, including amazon.com.
