Circle E Candles

Cute candles, I was greeted by a lovely woman and she helped me choose the perfect gift.

I wasn’t very interested in coming here with my friend last week because I already have tons of candles and I just didn’t see the need for more in my life — or my carry-​on when I had so many other things to worry about.
She wanted to come get the Cotton Candy candle since that’s her favorite and we eventually stopped in the smaller store on the strip further down from their main store with the production center.
They have some nice scents that I liked — Butterfly Kisses, Cherry Vanilla, Orange Vanilla, Bed of Roses, Christmas Spirit, and Wassail which I really liked. They had a few like Leather and Eternity (like the CK cologne) that were interesting but I don’t know if I’d want my house to be filled with that heady scent… ah well — to each their own. My favorite is their most popular — so I guess I’m a sheep — bc Bird of Paradise smells so damn good that I immediately bought one. lol.
I wasn’t overly impressed with their standard line — it’s fine — but it’s just normal boring glass jars. What I liked, and ended up buying, was a small golden glass candle that has a real handblown glass look to it — it’s decorative all on its own and then has that fantastic Bird of Paradise scent in it.
I liked the store — but I liked the location also — nestled in with all the other charming shops in Fredericksburg, TX makes for a fun afternoon with friends or family.

Thank you, Circle E Candles for your total awesomeness. Your candles are wonderful — great fragrances and the candles burn so beautifully (Silver Bells is my favorite — I have a cranberry-​scented candle burning right now), top-​notch customer service. Also, thank you for solving over-​the-​phone a particularly odd order problem for me. I can’t thank you enough.

Great selection and great customer service!
I recommend stopping by before you leave.
I got the peach, vanilla, country morning and jasmine.

I have been using these candles for years, they are amazing. I usually stockpile them when I’m in Fredericksburg. The other reviews are correct these candles last a long time. One candle will smell an entire room with the delightful fragrance. They are on the pricey side the 12 ounce flared jar is 15 $ where some candles at the grocery store would be maybe $ 10, but they are worth the value because the great fragrance last all the way to the end of the jar. The company’s service is great too. I had an experience with one of the candles I got home and did not like the way it burns so the company was nice and replaced it with a different fragrance and shipped it to me for free! Great service!

My husband and I had such a fantastic time busing the Circle E headquarters. After enjoying a wine tasting, we stopped by to the showroom. The lovely sales associate was so friendly and helpful. We had a great time smelling all the candles. We ended up leaving with a whole box full. I’m pretty sure we’ll be good on candles for the next ten years since these are THE BEST & tend to last forever. If you’re a candle fan, I absolutely recommend stopping by!

These aren’t what they used to be. nothing special and kind of weak scented. I miss dreamers.

I love Circle E Candles. I have been using these candles for years. I have never gone to the showroom because I place my orders online. I love the Bird of Paradise, Orange Patchouli, and Evening Passion (which smells like Obsession). The candles are well-​packed for shipment and I have never had a problem with my delivery. Yes, they are pricey — but the scent carries through the whole house.

I miss this place… I used to stop in to get votive candles on my way from Kerrville to Austin, or vice versa, but now that my trips are few and far between, it’s harder to be traveling on 290 while they’re open.
However, they have the most wonderful candles. As the other reviews have mentioned, they are pricey, yes, but so worth it. I tend to like tropical scents, my mom is all about cottons and linens, my older sister likes floral, my younger sister likes desserts, and my dad likes their baby powder scent. It’s great when holidays come around and I want to throw together a gift with a variety of trinkets. The candles come in a wide variety of sizes, and they have plenty of accessories if you don’t get a candle in glass. Additionally, the staff is so friendly and willing to help. The whole place smells amazing. I rarely carry cash, but the one time I used cash to pay here, my change even smelled amazing.
I can’t rave about this place enough, and I’m happy to support this little gem.

Circle E uses some of the best materials in their candles and a person needs to only smell one to believe it!
While pricier than most candles, keep in mind the burn time — this makes the cost totally worth it. One could absolutely have a candle for months, with frequent and multiple burns. Not to mention that one candle can fill a great space, even my whole house.
Their shipping is super fast, very reliable.

My absolute favorite candles! They seem pricey at first, but they last a long time and the scent fills up any room! (we have a really large living room and it fills the whole upstairs up). Lots of yummy scents, my faves are ambrosia, bird of paradise, fresh cake, butter rum, butterfly kisses, gourmet sugar cookie, & spiced cake. (and there are many more!)
They also carry these cool iron candle holders, they have a star, fleur de lis, and cross. Great Christmas gifts! You can also order online and it’s free shipping if you spend over $ 100!

These are my absolute favorite candles! The showroom has monthly candle discount which is great. The staff is very nice and friendly. These are the best candles in Texas!

I love these candles, but I find that the prices are the same here as opposed to buying them at craft shows or online. I wasn’t too concerned since all I wanted was the ever popular bird of paradise candles. I did get a few gifts while there. Stop by if you are in the area to smell all of their fantastic candles!

Love, love, love this place! Their selection is amazing. Prices seem a little high until you realize that their candles last forever. You could pay a lot less for a candle that wouldn’t burn nearly as long. Scents are strong and will fill up your room/​house, even the small ones.
Service is odd. The first time we went, the guy who helped us was a (retired?) local football coach, who was very nice and chatty. This time, the lady was cold and unamused, which was too bad.
Favorite scents are Hill Country Bluebonnets, Wisteria, and Apple Strudel.
We have been here each time we’ve visited from out of town, and I’m sure we’ll be back again!

Circle E Candles are wonderful! I love the different smells and the unique deco and gift ideas they have for them. I’ve bought a few candles from there from local area stores/​shops that carried some of their stuff but never really went to where the magic happens. They definitely have an extensive selection in scents and in sizes. Small votives run about 3 bucks but the bigger stuff can run ya about 36. Then they have these huge jars called ‘Cookie Jar Candles’ and they’re about 50 bucks. The scents last a long time — even a small 4 oz can have a burn time of about 30 hours or more (with a cost of about 6).
Don’t ask about the factory part though. They apparently don’t have it open to the public and it’s not open on the weekends either anyway. =)
