Quick Take: highly scented, long lasting
I received this candle as a gift. I absolutely LOVE the smell and how long it lasts! The only drawback is the price~yikes! I went on Sephora to get one and saw the price. Wow. Great to receive as a gift. Too pricey to reorder :(

Smell is too citrus strong for me
-01.24.13
Quick Take: highly scented
I thought I was buying the Fresh Sake candle, which I love. Accidentally bought the Sugar scent, which really should be called Sharp Citrus. Ended up returning it because it was just too strong and off-putting to me. Try the Sake instead!

Lovely

Quick Take: highly scented
I recieved the Citrus on the advice of the rep. This was impulse on my part and this candle really does have a clean burn. I could feel the quality of wax burning, very beautiful. I am burning more than some. I do find the price very high and the candle will undershoot the 50 hours. Even if they threy in a little travel candle. I will notorder again.

Doesn't smell very much
-08.02.11
Quick Take: take a long time to give off scent
This product was a little disappointing: it didn't give off hardly any smell at all. My husband actually asked if something was burning! It's true: you do smell the match a long time before the Fresh candle starts taking over. So, the scent is very, if not extremely subtle. You have to burn it for a long time before you actually start smelling anything that smells like the Sugar scent, and therefore I think it is VERY expensive. This candle cost over $40 and I won't buy it again. Other brands are less expensive and smell more. My husband actually asked me if anything was burning when he came home, because the only thing you can smell is the match with which you lit the candle a half hour ago!

A VERY BEAUTIFUL HIGHLY APPRECIATED GIFT
-06.12.11
Quick Take: long lasting, smells like meringue pie
I received a variety of candles for my birthday. I love candles and everyone knows it. I love how a candle can create ambiance, and I love how they flicker. If there's the tiniest reason to use a candle, I'll find it. I love traveling with them, too, because even the most expensive hotels sometimes have musty smells. A candle can cover that. And let us not forget that candles can also provide light in an emergency.
Fresh's Sugar Scented Candle smells like delicious meringue. It's just as good as the fragrance. It's a great candle, because it burns evenly, and it's small size makes it perfect for travel. For a tiny candle, it burns for a very long time - more than two days straight if left to burn continuously. What I love about it is that the scent remains for hours after the candle is snuffed out. The lid is a nice touch, too, because the scent stays contained in the candle without any fragrance loss. I've had cheaper candles which don't come with a cover, and lose their scent over time.
Although I couldn't afford to buy these on a regular basis, I'm glad it came as a birthday gift. I love this wonderful gift.

Not Too Impressed

I really love the Fresh Sugar line but was very unhappy with the candle. It's an expensive candle but when I lit it and waited for about an hour you could barely smell it. Would not recommend.

Great candle or gift
-09.10.09
I really like this candle's scent and long burn time. It's not a horrible value for the price. It smells light and clean, not overpowering or synthetic. The packaging is super cute which would make it a great gift too!

My bedroom smells like HEAVEN
-04.23.09
Quick Take: highly scented, long lasting, crisp, clean, sweet
This candle is WONDERFUL!!!!!!! I can't explain how much I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Fresh candles. They ALWAYS smell sooooooooooo incredible! The Sugar scent is my favorite aside from the Cannabis scented candle. This one is far more sweet and light. This candle has such a lovely crisp, sweet, citrusy scent. I love it so much, that I wound up buying the perfume of the same name. I want this scent with me ALL DAY! It's amazing! The funny thing is, is that the perfume is aimed more at women and I am a guy...I just can't help it! I love the smell too much! Try this candle!
They are a little pricey but they do last very long. I have already bought 4 of them! Can't rave enough about them!

I love all of Fresh's candles. They give off a nice strong scent that'll freshen your whole house and they have a long burn time. This candle smells fabulous. When I have guests over I always get compliments on how nice my house smells. Great candle!

Great scent!
-09.12.08
A really fresh, unique scent. I bought it on a whim because I love the scent of Fresh Sugar lip gloss, and I was not disappointed. I would give it a higher rating, but it's expensive for the size.
