I went there with my brother and mother to celebrate Mother’s Day and had the most enjoyable time. They have a great array of scents to choose from so anyone can get their favorite. I loved how interactive it was. Shyla was so knowledgeable and entertaining about the candles. We learned so much about candle making and its history. Can’t wait for them to add perfumes and body oils. Would absolutely book again!
