How long do they last?

This is a large candle at 26 ounces. I have been lighting my Village Candle since December, 2016 around Christmas. If you burn it for two to three hours let it cool after blowing the frame out then cut the wick down to about a quarter inch each time you burn it. This gives you a nice clean burn from the candle. I'd say so far my candle has burned about 75 hours and I have probably half of my candle remaining. So it burns about 150 plus hours. I hope this has helped.

Does this candle have any harmful chemicals?

Any candle made with paraffin contains petro-chemicals... So yes, it does.

Do the Village Candles burn down evenly?

The jar candle shown, has twin wicks and both should be lighted. If you allow the candle to burn no less than 2 hours or so, the entire top layer will melt to liquid and the candle will burn evenly. If you only allow it to burn a short time with each use, you will get a deep well in the middle and wax around the outsides (wasted). The candle shown will burn over 180 hours and you will have about 1/4' of wax in the bottom of the jar. I remove this and the wick holders, and use them in a wax melter for additional scent. I love these candles! Can you tell?

Is this highly pine scented?

I think it's more of an "ever green" smell, kind of like walking the the forest rather than straight pine. Some pine, to me, stinks like a public bathroom, not this one, it is is an extremely nice scent! It's a strong candle. I love it, have been buying this for many years for the holidays and really enjoy it. I originally bought the "other" brand, but their scent seemed to get weak, besides, the Village candles cost less!! I would recommend this candle for anyone who wants their home to smell like they have a real tree. Hope this helps.

Burns super clean and even!

I am taking the time to post this because I always thought that Yankee was the best but guess what? Its not! I ordered the Village Candle in Balsam Fir, which is my favorite. Not only does it smell better, it burned perfectly even and it felt like it lasted longer! I have no proof of that, but it sure felt like it I was worried that due do having two wicks that it may not burn even but it’s really impressive! This is my second purchase and having it go exactly like the first time a review was needed! AND, it’s a dollar or two cheaper and I never trimmed a wick!!!

A Lesser Knock Off of a Yankee Candle

This is a reasonably good candle but it's not the quality of a Yankee Candle. It does not last as long, it's scent is in the upper 1/2 of the candle and it has 2 wicks, which I never liked and still do not. The scent is great and ultra potent at first. It actually fills my1600 square foot home but after the candle burns 1/2 way through, the scent is done. Yankee candles have their scent all the way through to the near end. This is a lesser knock off of a Yankee and often times costs more. If you cannot find a Yankee at the right price, buy this one.

Je dois vous dire qu’elle est super ,c’est bizarre mais sur Amazon tout est numéro 1 Le service aussi,mais j’ai commandé de la même compagnie des usa et très très décevant ,et le prix est PLUS cher aussi,plus les frais de douane. Donc je vous conseille FERMEMENT de l’acheter direct sur Amazon et non en provenance des usa. Merci

Fantastic and authentic smelling candle. It truly does feel like Christmas in July at home now. It's got 2 wicks but we burn only one and the smell permeates the whole lounge room. Will def be buying again!

C'est une bougie que j'ai acheté à noël pour l'odeur de sapin. Je n'ai pas été déçu. Très jolie et très bonne qualité. L'odeur est agréable. Il est très important de la tenir allumée minimum 3-4 heures à chaque fois pour éviter l'effet de tunnel.
