Okay, these Tamil candles are amazing

They make me feel like I'm visiting a tranquil Tamil temple. So many of my Tamil friends have complemented these candles in my house! And they last for months

Haven’t lit them yet bc they smell so good, and remind me of home. I recently moved into my own apartment away from my parents, so this is definitely helping the homesickness. Love being able to read rojaa and mallipu on the candles

Bought this as a gift for a friend and she loved it! Wish the packaging was a bit more cute and/or shared more of the brand story.
