Charmed Aroma Candle


Classic 2 Wick Coconut Vanilla

"Every Charmed Aroma candle has rings valued between $10, $25, $100, $1,000 or $5,000."

"Rings will come randomized between sizes 6-8."


If your reading this you are probably were like me before I decided to purchase one of these candles
from Charmed Aroma, and asking yourself is this legit? 
I decided for my birthday, I would take the plunge and I purchased the
 'Classic 2 Wick Soy Candle'  in the scent 'Coconut Vanilla'.

One of the reasons why I was so hesitant (besides the major reason, how could there be rings of that quality buried in a candle), was the overall cost of the candle.  The candle itself $26.99 plus another $8.95 for shipping.  If your like me your looking at that being $40 bucks for a candle.  Really?  It better be a damn good candle.  Even if I only were to find a $10 ring.  The candle better be worth it :)

So me being curious/the tester I am.  I wanted to see how long the candle would actually last.  So yes, I kept track of how long I burned the candle.  I had a little piece of paper stuck on the fridge and I logged "my times".  Husband thought I was nuts (nothing new), but hey, this was going to determine if I was
to actually buy another candle from Charmed Aroma again in the future.

I should also mention there are other products available from Charmed Aroma, which include Bath Bombs $16.99 (925 Sterling Silver Ring worth up to $5000),  Body Scrub $28.99 or Body Butter $27.99 (925 Sterling Silver Ring worth up to $5000), Necklace candle $26.99 (Sterling Silver Necklace & Pendant worth up to $5000).

They also have a Sterling Silver 'Choose your Size' Candle.  It costs a bit more $44.99 but at least you know your going to find a ring that actually fits you.

What I Found?



Overall scent of the candle was very pleasant.  I'm not one for vanilla but I love coconut.  Truth. I get a lot more vanilla scent that I do the coconut.  So not too sure where the coconut comes into it but it was still very nice.  And too be honest I was quite shocked on how long this candle actually burned for.  If you check the FAQ on the Charmed Aroma, website they state that their Classic 2 Wick candles can burn any wheres from 30-40 hours.

Mine lasted: 45 Hours & 51 minutes.

Yes, I could be off a bit, but damn I'd take it. LOL.
That makes me feel a little bit better for purchasing a $40 candle.

Now this can vary for different people but the approx time I was able to fish out my ring was
26 hours and 37 minutes in.  I didn't go digging around for it.  I waited till the "baggie" was full visible.



Tin foil + baggie straight from the candle.
Baggie removed from tin foil.



























So since there was an actual ring in my candle that means I wasn't luck enough to have received a $1000 or $5000 ring.  If it was to be a $1000 or $5000 ring I would have just received an appraisal code/note and once you contact Charmed Aroma, they send you the ring with appraisal papers.

The ring I was to about to find would be between $10 - $100.
Any guesses?

Here's My Ring!


When you get your ring there is an appraisal code attached and once you go onto the Charmed Aroma, website your can enter in that code and the value of your ring will show up.

In my case my ring was valued at: $100

I took a screen shot (below) of what appeared.  I just blocked out my 
actual code but it does state my ring "Appraised for $100".



The ring itself is so sparkly and shiny and well gorgeous.  But sadly, it is too big.  I'm guessing its either a size 7.5 or 8.  It just barely fits my thumb :(

(I ended up gifting this ring to my Mum for Mother's Day)

I hope some people found this to be little bit helpful.

Oh, forgot to mention.  I had no issues with ordering.  Received my candle in a timely manner.  Packed well, wasn't damaged.  I know right now with it being the Xmas holidays and them just finishing a huge 12 days of Christmas promo, they got little overwhelmed I think and their shipments have been delayed by 4 weeks.  I think I just lucked out and bet the rush :)  Once the holidays are over you "shouldn't" have any issues.


Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!
