What Our Customers Say

This earthy candle is a top choice for those who prefer the nature scents. It has a softness of nature and topping of earthiness that brings your senses to the younger years of being outside after a rain and just soaking up the mixtures of light scents of summer flowers in their freshly worked beds and planters with fresh raindrops just splashed down to cover everything in that wonderful scent that brings you right back to those young and carefree summer days. Those memories of the rains take us right back, in the window, just waiting for the showers in the afternoons to stop so we could hurry up and get outside and enjoy that nostalgic scent. I hope this is available all year. I'm on my second candle already.

My parents didn’t give each other gifts on holidays.  He did though, buy a candle for my mom one Christmas - Juicy Apple. She loved it so much, he began to buy her one every year. He passed away in August but that year around Christmas, a candle came. And so every year since my mom send each of us kids a Juicy Apple candle. It smells like home. I’m so happy to carry them in our winery! I have them out already and although I can’t put out fall decor just yet…they put me in the mood. Burns down to the wick every time. Thank you for being a part of my families memories and history and…my parents love story.

I love candles and wax melts! In my 56 years of life, thus far, I've purchased from several other companies... these are, hands-down, my FAVORITE candles and wax melts 🥰. This wax melt, scented Pecan Belgian Waffles, is DIVINE! My husband has commented at times about the good smells from other companies, but this time, he said, "why do I want pecan pie all of a sudden", and then, he said, "those wax melts smell DELICIOUS...I could just drink it!"...he didn't drink it. Lol!! I have the wax warmer going in the living room and I could smell it all the way in our bedroom! I will be buying this scent again and again...Thank you, Cheerful Giver for such excellent products ❤️.

This is my favorite and only candle company that I absolutely love. It surpasses Yankee Candle Company in superb candle scent and quality. I used to be my favorite candle company until I came across Cheerful Giver in Elmer, NJ. Never going back to Yankee again!
