NEST New York Something Tropical Votive Candle
"NEST New York Something Tropical Votive Candle smells so amazing for such a little candle the aroma fills the room and the smell isn’t overwhelming . Put mine under a candle warmer ( only because I have kids ) but from what I’ve seen the wick didn’t look like it needed to be trimmed before lighting it and there was no ashes. All in all this is a great candle."

"It doesn’t smell tropical to me but more like a muted version of the forbidden fig scent. It is nice but I wouldnt purchase this particular scent again."

A tropical mocktail in a candle
"Being a huge fan of NEST candles, I knew I had to try this new release the moment it appeared on the site. I ordered it just in time for Valentine’s Day, and it perfectly captured the light, playful, and flirty mood of the holiday. The name is a great fit for this candle since the scent feels abstractly fruity and tropical in the best way. While I do pick up the passion fruit, mango, and hibiscus note mentioned in the fragrance description, they are not particularly prominent. To me, the aroma is closer to a multi-fruit juice or a non-alcoholic tropical mocktail with muddled fruit pulp. It is sweet without being cloying, remaining bright, cheerful, and very charming throughout. I would absolutely love a body wash or lotion in this exact scent. The throw is impressively strong both when the candle is cold and when it is lit. Even though this one hasn’t made it into my top three favorite NEST candles, I enjoyed it enough that I will definitely repurchase it in the future."

Very Little Scent
"I love NEST candles because, after 30 year as a customer, I can always depend on the lingering fragrances. I cannot detect much of a scent at all in this one."

Cute & smells nice!
"This is such a nice tropical scent! To me it smells mostly mango which I like. This is a great size for a small room like a bathroom or a small entryway. It burns nicely and I could see these as really great gifts for a gift basket or just a little treat yourself candle! I love the packaging."

Smells great and last a long time.
"I really love this scent. It smells heavenly. It’s smaller and the wax burns slow. The smell lingers all over the house and it’s very safe with the small wick. Made to last a long time very great quality. I love this brand. They make all things smell better. Love the way the scent is made to last."

Truly impressive
"I’ve always been a fan of Nest, but I’m officially blown away by their candles! This is the perfect tropical scent for people who don't want to smell like a cupcake or a suntan lotion. It’s fresh, sweet, and has a touch of musk that makes it feel elevated and 'grown-up. ' Don’t let the small votive size fool you—the scent fills the entire room almost instantly. Plus, it burns perfectly even every single time. If you want a tropical vibe that feels sophisticated rather than just sugary, this is the one."

Cute little candle with a big scent
"This candle may be small but it has a big, strong scent. The tropical scent is a little stronger than I was expecting. I like the size of the candle. It’s cute and can fit easily into our decor. When burning I do not like the scent as much as I do when it just sitting on the shelf. This is not q scent that I would have purchased. It’s ok but I prefer scents like cinnamon, Christmas tree and pumpkin better than such fruity scents."

Bright, fresh, amazing throw!
"NEST New York is known for having the highest quality and trendiest candles. This Something Tropical votive from Nest it’s absolutely no exception! It’s sleek and minimalistic with an amazing throw of the scent. The scent itself is bright and fresh, fruity like you first sip of Hawaiian Punch soda. It smells like spring break and summer evenings and splashing in the pool, and in dreary and gray Wisconsin this is apparently 100% what I need right now in my life!"

Love
"This kennel definitely smells like something tropical I absolutely love it and I feel like it fits perfect in my bathroom. It’s such a great size and the scent is not overpowering, but it’s definitely very strong. You get a lot for your money and I feel like this candle will last a while too."
