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!

To Wrap Up:

Can you still get this box if you sign up today? You will likely receive the April box. From VellaBox:

I love natural/vegan beauty products, Korean skincare, unique jewelry, and weird candies from far away places. When I am not waiting for my next exciting box you can find me painting or taking photographs of interesting people. I never leave home without pug hair somewhere on my shirt and a bold lipstick on my smile.

Orange Ylang Ylang sounds lovely. 😍

I find ylang ylang to be at its best when paired with a citrus, so I loved it!

Hi Meghan! I really enjoy reading your reviews. You’re always very detailed and thorough. That said, I know this is a really simple box but I often use these reviews to find new brands to check out. I’m a bit of a candle freak I guess. 😊
The thing that’s just as important for me as the scent itself is the scent strength or “throw” I think it’s called. I myself feel like it’s kind of a waste of money if something is too weak. Of course a better way to describe describe it without insulting the candle/company would be a “light scent with minimal throw so it might be good for a bathroom” as an example, versus one that was able to fill your whole living area or an entire floor. Rarely you might even get one that’s too strong and overpowering for anything but a really large area or only suitable to burn for a short time. I ordered some seasonedal candles this year that I couldn’t even stand to burn in my average size apartment. Just some ideas for those of us always looking to find that perfect candle! 🙏 Thanks!

hey Maria! I appreciate the input and will totally make note of that in future candle reviews because I can agree that throw is important. My house is really old and massive, but I found that this one did delicately fill my living room (~ 15×13 feet?), but not in a super strong way. It would probably be great for a smaller space but not overpoweringly so. <3
