Burning Thoughts

Candles… I LOVE candles. Seriously. I love the ambiance, I love the smell, I love the warmth, I love the way they look. So, you can imagine my excitement when I was invited by BzzAgent.com to participate in a Bzz Campaign …. of CANDLES! WOOT!

Glade (c) has the new Fragrance Collection and I was one of the lucky little Bzz Agents selected to receive a fantastically free Fragrance Collection candle to sample. (By sample, I mean I got the full size candle and THAT, dear folks, is fantastical.) What do I do in return for free stuff? I just tell people what I think about the products I check out, good or bad. I have nothing but good to say about these product. Honest.

They sent me a Currants and Acai scented candle that is supposed to be able to burn 27 hours. I’m not so good at actually paying attention to how long I’ve burned candles, but I can assure you this one has lasted several extended burnings. The scent is subtle but is definitely fills the kitchen and living room (we have an open area between the two). If I go outside to get the mail, I come back in and just smell this wonderful candle. And you know how sometimes you can feel overwhelmed with multiple scents? Let’s say you cook dinner and have  candle burning, and obviously the two scents are different. Well, the nice thing about this candle is that it doesn’t completely override the smell of good food cooking, it DOES override the smell of the forgotten oven (oops!), and it blends nicely with anything I have cooked. (The scent. I haven’t tried eating the candle, and I don’t suggest you do either.)

I highly recommend you check out The Fragrance Collection by Glade. Not only do they have these wonderful candles in three subtle scents, they also have the scents in Reed Diffusers! Even better! You don’t have to light them, the scent is there when you get home!

And while you are checking out The Frangrance Collection, check out www.bzzagent.com and see how you can become a part of the community that let’s you check out great products, and websites in exchange for your honest opinion (and a little word of mouth action).
