September 2019 Ignis Vellabox Review
The candle arrives in a reusable drawstring bag. This one has a very subtle colorblocking effect.
And each box comes with an info card detailing the candles featured that month:

Ardor Bin Sandalwood Night Candle, 8 oz - Retail Value $22.00
I know that most everyone adores pumpkin spice season, but as someone who hates food scents, it always brings a little dread since I know everything is going to smell like pumpkins, nutmeg, and cinnamon for a few months. I was so happy to see that this hasn't yet taken effect in my Vellabox subscription! Instead, I received a delightfully sexy sandalwood candle that also has notes of teak, patchouli, musk, and just a little spice. It is a perfect candle for burning as the sun sets and you relax and wind down. I absolutely love this scent.
It is worth mentioning that typically this candle comes with a wood wick, while our Vellabox version has a traditional cotton wick. The wax is 100% soy and is hand-poured in Los Angeles.
And each Vellabox also comes with a little treat like a food or beauty item:

STASH Tea Samples in Peppermint and Ginger Fire Chai
STASH makes one of my favorite Earl Grey varieties (DOUBLE bergamot!), so I am excited to enjoy more of their flavors by candlelight, when it cools down a little!
Verdict: This was another winner, just like last month. Vellabox is on a roll! I love that the last two months have been such sophisticated and sultry scents. I am sure next month will probably be more pumpkin-esque, but for now, I will celebrate sandalwood. For $20 we received an estimated $22.00 worth of candle value.
To Wrap Up:
Can you still get this box if you sign up today? You will likely receive the October box. From Vellabox:
Once you sign up for a monthly membership, all boxes will ship on the 5th of each month. For new subscribers we will be flexible to ensure as many customers as possible can receive the current months box. Therefore, if you sign up after the 5th, but before the 20th we will ship you that month’s box.
