This is a nice product, but expensive for what it is

Having had my doubts about the quality and scent of fairly traded candles, following an unpleasant experience, I received some Dalit candles as a gift. I have purchased these for gifts - the scent is really pleasant, the quality excellent and the story definitely worth buying more
