A month ago there was a luminara LTS with 2 dark green scroll candles.  They are 6 inches high, 3 diameter.  I don't decorate with this shade of green, but they were under $30.  I like them a lot.  I ordered the 5 inch today to go with the scroll ones.

Really? I've had mine about 2 months and they're in my LR & I have to put it up to my nose to detect a faint vanilla smell.

 

Of course, I realize that many people are more sensitive to scents, than I may be.

 

Sorry they didn't work out for you @mousiegirl!

 


IG, I do have other Luminaras which only have a scent if I put my nose right in the top,  and this doesn't bother me as it does not permeate the room, but the candles I mentioned just reek, glad your candles do not.  There is hardly ever a mention either in the item description or by the presenters that there is any scent/odor, but posters in feedback certainly mention it.

 

 I burn real candles and love the scent, but can't stand the fake scents, and I don't understand why Luminara has to do it to the majority, if not all, of their candles.

I agree.

 

I've read many reviews of Luminara candles from people who are sensitive to scents and you would think that Luminara could make them all scentless, since we have many other ways to scent our home with our preferred scent, or no scent, than just the Luminara candles.

 

That way, those people could enjoy them also. And it should be easy enough to just skip the adding of any fragrance.

You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.
