March 2019 Vivere VellaBox Review
Each candle arrives in a reusable drawstring bag.
And each box comes with an info card detailing the candles featured that month:
Now, on to the candles!
Mr. B's Luminaries Candle in Orange and Ylang-Ylang, 4 oz – Estimated Value $13.56 (buy a 5 oz. candle for $16.95)
Orange and ylang-ylang are always a perfect pairing, at least to my nose! The brightness of the orange is blended perfectly with the creaminess of the ylang-ylang, making this candle both stimulating as well as comforting. This brand makes their candles with a 100% soy wax which burns bright and clean.
Mr. B's Luminaries Candle in Lavender Rosemary, 8 oz – Estimated Value $27.12 (buy a 5 oz. candle for $16.95)
Lavender just smells especially bright and clean, even more so when paired with rosemary. I love these two fragrances together! It is the perfect scent for early spring because it hints at the coming warmth and flowers.
This candle arrived in this month's Ignis and Lucerna subscription boxes as well.
And each VellaBox also comes with a little treat or sample:
Meyers Clean Day Hand Lotion Samples
These little single-use samples are perfect for on the go moisture. I was sent two scents: lavender and basil.
These samples arrived in this month's Ignis and Lucerna subscription boxes as well.
Verdict: This month's VellaBox has a value of about $40.68 (not counting the samples), making it a good deal for a $30 subscription, especially for such nice candles! I love that they included little lotion samples in complimentary scents, it just makes the whole box feel like much thought was put into it! I look forward to burning both of these scents in my home and can't wait for my space to be filled with the scents of lavender and orange!
