I bought this and the Rivendell candle for a friend who is a big LOTR fan. She loves them, not only because of the literary reference (the main reason I bought them) but also because their fragrances are evocative of the two imaginary locations. Win!

Smells awesome and the packaging was so thoughtful, including a smaller bonus candle!
Winter in Narnia smells exactly like you would imagine Narnia to smell. It’s the perfect fall/winter scent. It isn’t too feminine or masculine, which makes it the perfect gift for anyone! Both my husband and I are using it!
With so many great choices of scent I just couldn't decide
With so many great choices of scent I just couldn't decide, so I purchased a couple each of the perfume samples for my book-loving besties (Fireheart and Elven Moonlight for one, Violet and Rainy Day Reading for the other). They were a huge hit! Thanks for the inspired gift idea :)
This scent was not what I was expecting but, once it softened up on my skin I really liked it alot and will continue to use it. The mix and concentration of these perfumes are very nice and long lasting.
