Advantages: Smells lovely, burns forever, looks great, did I mention it smells lovely?

Disadvantages: I suppose it's quite pricey for a candle... but worth it!

I first spotted Lily Flame scented candles in Fenwicks in Newcastle and I was amazed at how powerful the smell was. They come in a little tin with a lid on, and as soon as you lift the lid, the smell just hits you! As the name suggests, this particular candle smells of mango and boy does it smell. You don't even have to light it, if you just take the lid off, the room will start to smell of mango too!

The candle itself is orange in colour and almost fills in the tin, all lily flame candles also have 4 little blocks of different coloured candle within them (like little spikes) just to give them a unique and different look. Overall I really like the look of the tin and the candle itself, simple yet effective!

When the candle is burning, the smell soon fills the room and it is absolutely gorgeous. After blowing the candle out, you will still be able to smell the mango for ages afterwards. I find this to be very rare with scented candles so have been very impressed with the lily flame range.

I think the smell is the best thing about these candles, and having had a quick sniff of the other ones, they are all equally fantastic. However, another amazing thing about them is the burning time.It states on the label that these candles will burn for at least 35 hours! That is a huge amount of time considering the tin is only about two inches tall and I have to say, I have burnt mine for probably about 6 or 7 hours so far and it looks as though hardly any has gone. Obviously the wax has melted, so it doesn't look the same as it did when I got it, but in terms of how much candle is actually left - nearly all of it!

The candles don't come cheap and will probably set you back around £7 or £8. I got mine off ebay and it was a little cheaper but not much. However, if you consider the burning time, the beautiful smell, and the cute look of this candle, it is so worth the money!

Summary: A very unique and delicious candle which will get you addicted to the lily flame range.
