Disclosure:  I received this candle for free from Diamond Candles  for the purpose of an honest and unbiased review. This giveaway is also sponsored by Diamond candles.

I love candles. I’m a huge fan of light/clean/citrus scents.  When the folks over at Diamond Candles offered to send me a candle, I scoured their site and honestly had a hard time picking out the scent I wanted. There was so much to choose from but I settled on the “relax and revive” scent which is described as follows:

“Fresh” doesn’t even begin to do this scent justice; it’s a favorite for guest rooms and master suites alike. It features a lively combination of lemon verbena and fresh mandarin lime, combined with sweet coconut and white musk.” 

I honestly loved this scent because it’s a perfect combination of all of my favorite types of scents.

 
My candle arrived within one week of placing my order and was secured in a recyclable cardboard case and wrapped in lots of paper.
About Diamond Candles
According to their website, “Diamond Candles are made using soy wax, which is different from the paraffin wax used by most candle makers. Soy wax is natural and made from soy bean plants. Our wicks are coated in soy wax instead of paraffin, because we don’t want to make any compromise.Our soy wax is also made from only US soy beans. We do our best to support American farmers and the American economy by using local products.”
 
 

The “wicks are also made from cotton, even some so called ‘natural’ candle companies use paraffin wax to coat the wicks in their candles! There is no lead, tin, or zinc in our wicks either.”
 
In addition to their candles being 100% natural and earth friendly, Diamond candles includes a fun surprise in every candle. A ring valued $10, 100, $1000 or $5000 is hidden in each candle waiting to be unveiled. 
After burning my candle for about 6 hours over a few days, my ring began to peek through. I’ll admit that I didn’t wait for the wax to cool completely (as recommended), but I was very careful and used my tweezer to lift it from the wax.
Although my ring was too big for my itty bitty fingers (I’m a size 5 1/4), it was a really cute fashion ring, and a nice bonus to an already great candle.
Each 21 oz candle retails for $24.95 and burns for over 140 hours.
