The Voluspa Yashioka Gardenia Glass Jar Candle smells magnificent. It is so fragrant everyone comments when they walk in the door. I keep it on a table by the front door and the smell carries thru the house. It is also very pretty so you don't have to hide it because it doesn't go with your décor. They last long because the fragrance is strong enough that you can light it for a shorter amount of time and the smell will last therefore making it more affordable in the long run even though it is a bit pricier than other candles. Well worth it!!!
