PokeHome Candle Luxury Scented Soy Jar Candle, Small 3.6 Oz (Daisy, Mars)

I'm in love with this candle container, so sculptural, classy and beautiful in itself Candle inside is small and the scent is sort of lavander-ish/daisy-ish. Once the candle is consumed, you still have this awesome mini-sculpture jar to use with another candle, as a container for small rings or earrings, or just as a decorative element. Packaging is really good as it has some double-mold foam inside the box that holds and protects the sculptural top and the candle container. I wish they had more variety of candles, because this candle is really elegant. The candle per se is on the small size, but the jar and the top are still medium sized. Good value for money.

Dusk is an Australian franchise selling candles, melts, aromatic essential oils and burners, room perfumers, and anything related to the world of candles and aromatherapy, like oil burners, vaporisers, ethanol fireplaces, and mood reeds. They also have a few gift items, silicone flowers and glass vases. Their candle products are produced in their factory in Western Australia.

This Dusk shop is very small, but packed to the rafters. They always have colourful catchy displays at the entrance, and the inner shop is, despite being crowded, aesthetically pleasant, well organised and the products are beautifully displayed.

I especially love their essential oils blends, which are fragrant but without being overpowering, and cheaper than other brands. I also like some of their individual candle holders, or packs of three, which can be truly cute, pretty and sometimes even artistic, and are usually well priced. Although they have tons of things, I find the style of their oil burners a bit limited. 

The girls at the shop are lovely every time I have visited, and attend to you with great diligence, affability and friendliness. They leave you browse around, if that is what you want. They are very knowledgeable about what they sell and about the world of candles in general. They always give customers two free leaflets: "Aromatherapy. A guide to use, care and safety", and "Your guide to use, care and product safety".  

Pricing of most products is mid range, not cheap but not expensive either. The only thing I found pricey were the normal tea candles, which can be found at a fraction of the price at your local IGA. 

Dusk Carillon is perfect for a quick visit for your refills during your lunch break if you happen to work in the CBD, and one of those places where you can find a nice gift for a female friend or relative for not much money. 

MIND - The aisle space is very reduced, so mind your arms and handbags or you break something!
