"Smells nice, but the soot was frustrating"
I was excited to try this candle and the scent was really nice at first, but I got annoyed waiting for it to burn evenly and then seeing all the soot it left on the glass and even the nearby shelf. For the price, I expected a cleaner burn. It’s not awful, and I might give one more a shot, but it was a little frustrating

"I picked this up as a gift..."
I picked this up as a gift for my sister, and the packaging did look really nice. The scent was a bit stronger than I thought it would be, though... She said she liked it alright, but I’m not totally sure I’d choose it as a gift again.

"I bought this again because I liked the..."
I bought this again because I liked the first one, but this time it just felt different. The scent and texture seemed a little off compared to what I remembered, and that made me hesitant to keep using it. For the price, I expected it to be more consistent from one purchase to the next. Kind of disappointing, and I’m not sure I’d take the chance on it again

"nice smell, but it tunneled badly"
i ordered this from boysmells.com the scent itself was really nice. no complaints there at all. it smelled good without being too much, and i was excited to keep using it.
but after the second burn, it started tunneling even though i let it burn for a few hours. for the price, i expected a more even burn. i tried the foil trick, but there was still a lot of wax stuck on the sides, so it felt disappointing.

"Smells really nice at first, but it disappears way too quickly"
I really like the way this smells when I first put it on. It has a nice, pleasant scent that made me think I was going to love it, but unfortunately it just doesn’t seem to last on me at all. After a short while, I can barely smell it anymore, even when I try to notice it. I wish it had better staying power because the scent itself is lovely, but for me it fades way too fast.
"I was trying to place my order, and..."
I was trying to place my order, and of course the website decided to freeze right at checkout. It happened twice, which was super frustrating because I didn’t have time to keep messing with it. I ended up just giving up.

"Waited forever and the packaging was disappointing"
I was already a bit frustrated because it took longer than expected to arrive, and then when I finally opened it, the packaging looked messy and kind of cheap. Just not the vibe I was expecting at all

"Smells a little different than I thought"
It’s not bad or anything, but yeah, the scent was just a bit different than I expected. Not totally off-putting, just kind of not what I had in mind...

"Smell faded way too fast"
I really wanted to love this, but I was disappointed. The scent is nice when you first put it on, but it barely lasted on me at all. For the price, I expected it to be a lot stronger and stick around longer. After a short while, it was basically gone.

"Scents were a little too much for me"
I really wanted to like these, but the scents felt kind of all over the place. They mention all these nice-sounding notes and make it seem like everything blends perfectly, but it’s vague and didn’t really match what I expected. A few started off nice, then turned heavy or just weird on my skin after a while. Not terrible, but way too busy for me. For the price, I was hoping for something smoother and more put-together
"Just didn’t feel that unique to me"
I tried Boy Smells because I thought the scents would be a little more different or interesting, but they just smelled basic to me. Nothing really jumped out, and one of the candles kind of reminded me of something I’ve smelled before at cheaper stores.
For the price, I just expected it to feel a bit more special. Maybe it’s just my personal taste, but I don’t really get the hype. I probably wouldn’t buy again...
"Honestly, it feels way overpriced"
I don’t know, for what it is, it just doesn’t feel worth the price to me. I expected a bit more for the money, but it kind of left me thinking, yeah… not really worth it.

"Wrong candles sent, still not sorted out"
I ordered three candles from Boy Smells and somehow only one of them was actually the scent I picked. The other two were completely different, which was frustrating right out of the box.
I double-checked my confirmation email because I thought maybe I had messed something up, but nope, the order showed the correct scents. These candles aren’t exactly cheap, so getting the wrong ones felt extra annoying.
I reached out to customer service, but it’s been slow and I’m kind of tired of having to keep following up just to get a basic order fixed. This was my first time buying from boysmells.com, and at this point I don’t really see myself ordering again.

"Showed up cracked"
I opened the box and noticed it was already cracked, so I didn’t even try to use it just to be safe. Disappointing, honestly. I’ll be looking into a return or replacement.

"Shipping was okay"
I ordered from boysmells.com and the package did show up, but it took longer than I expected. The tracking also didn’t update much for a few days, which was annoying. The product was totally fine once it arrived, I just wish the shipping had been a bit quicker

"Good scent, but it disappears too fast"
It smelled nice, so I was hopeful, but it burned down way too quickly. I barely got a week out of it, which was disappointing for the price. Also, having to go through the same verification steps over and over just to deal with the order/review was really annoying.

"The smell was kinda... off??"
I was expecting the scents to be a lot nicer, but the one I got smelled weirdly sweet??? Like, not in a good way at all... It was a bit too much for me and ended up giving me a headache!!
"I ordered from Boy Smells and the..."
I ordered from Boy Smells and the delivery experience was kind of a mixed bag. The package did eventually show up, but it arrived later than the estimate they gave me.
The weird part is, the tracking barely updated for a few days, so I was just sitting there wondering if it was actually moving or stuck somewhere. It wasn’t a total disaster, just a little annoying not knowing what was going on.
Everything was fine once it arrived, so no complaints about the items themselves. I’d probably order again, but only if I wasn’t on any kind of timeline.

"Smell is barely there"
I really wanted to like this candle, but the scent is kind of just... not much. I had it going in my bedroom for a few hours or so, and I could only really smell it if I was basically right next to it. For what it costs, I figured it would be a lot stronger. Disappointing, to be honest.

"Burns a Little Uneven"
so it looks really nice, but mine started tunneling badly after just two burns. Kind of disappointing because I wanted to love it.
