Rated 2 out of 5 by from Coconut Macaroons! As a coffee lover I was excited for this one but tremendously disappointed as I detected NO coffee, but a definite coconut fragrance ( which I am NOT a fan of ) along with a VERY sour milk note. Throw and strength were very strong tho, 2 stars for that. If you like coconut macaroons and sour milk you'll like this one, but not for me.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Delicious! I really missed the old Hazelnut coffee fragrance and decided to try this one since someone else mentioned a comparison of the two. They weren't wrong- it's a wonderful alternative and smells fantastic! It's definitely not the same as the old scent, but if you've been missing it too then I strongly recommend you give this one a go.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Mmmmm…. Very yummy, warm delicious fragrance if you love coffee! Strong scent that fills the room even when not lit. The more it burns the more you can smell cinnamon and baking scents. Initially smells like coffee and vanilla which are my favorites!!

Rated 3 out of 5 by from I good start, but it could be more powerful. I don't know why, but I love the smell of coffee brewing. I am not a traditional coffee drinker. I never developed the love for drinking the stuff. I love Coffee flavored ice cream and candies, but to drink that hot liquid....naw. I have gotten more into frappes and iced coffee, but even then the iced coffee needs to have so much sugar and milk in it that it's not healthy. But I love to smell that Fresh Coffe smell...and I love it when it's a STRONG fresh coffee smell. I say all of this to say, this candle does not do that...it gives you a subtle smell of coffee. I want to be hot over the head with the smell. This is a good candle to have in a closed room, that room will have a pretty strong coffee scent. If you put this candle in your living room or kitchen, a space that is too open, you won't get that strong coffee smell. So, it's really about what you want and what you are using it for. I have bought three of these candles. They are great in my closed door bedroom. I once tried them out in the living room. The candle was too weak to cover that amount of space. I'll keep these candles in my bed room.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Coffee Scent Comes Through I am a huge coffee drinker and love the smell of coffee. This candle honestly reminds me of walking into a Starbucks standalone store. The coffee smell is intoxicating and the candle itself has a good throw. I would definitely recommend this candle to those who love coffee or appreciate its scent.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nice gourmand coffee Cafe Al Fresco is a soft pleasent scent. Not strong on the coffee smell more like sweet caramel cocoa. Compared to Espresso Martini, I preferred the Fresco. This is my morning staple gourmand scent when I getting ready for work. The throw is about 7 and I have the original jar. Not overpowering, comforting background scent. Definitely need backup from this one. Love it.
