January 2020 Ignis Vellabox Review
The candle arrives in a reusable drawstring bag. This one is has a soft and subtle wood grain pattern.
And each box comes with an info card detailing the candles featured that month:
Now, on to the candle!

Feya Candle Co. 'Brown Sugar & Fig' Candle, 8 oz - Buy a 6.5 oz candle for $17.00
This candle could have gone either way from the description. The sugar and fig sounded mighty sweet to me, but I was pleasantly surprised when I opened the lid and sniffed. It feels much more like a cashmere sort of vanilla and sugar, with just a hint of fig that gives it a botanical twist. The fragrance is much more perfume than food, which was a big plus. I really like this scent a lot! It is one of those warm, homey types that are perfect for chilly nights in with hot tea. The soy wax burns very evenly and the fragrance is noticeable but not overpowering, filling my office up with a soft "background" type of scent.
And each Vellabox also comes with a little treat like a food or beauty item:

Winter Woods Natural Birch Coaster
This was a really nice addition this month because it serves as a nice holder for the candle, especially when it gets burned way down later on and the base becomes warm. It adds the right amount of wintery rusticness to the whole experience.
Verdict: This month's Vellabox was really nice! I love the candle smell and how it seems perfect for winter without being "wintery." I also liked the little birch coaster because it adds to the overall theme and also serves the function of protecting my furniture from heat.
