Votive candles - recommendation needed!

Votive candles - recommendation needed!

Do you any of you know of any votive candles that last 4 to 5 hours?

I just received my votive candle order from njcandle.com and after 1 1/2 hours, the votive is almost burned out! and they were supposed to last 10 HOURS!? what a joke!

the reason why I ordered from them is b/c they had burgundy unscented votives.

can anyone recommend long lasting votives?

TIA!

The votives from Yankee Candle last a long time. They are a little bit more money but they do last. I have also used votive candles that I bought from IKEA and believe it or not they lasted a long time.

IKEA? really? that's interesting.

are the votives you bought from Yankee candle unscented?

The tealights from Ikea lasted about 4 hours when I tested them.

cudge.net sells votives for a reasonable price and they specify how long they last.

I think they are scented. I didnt know what you were looking for.

I actually think I will be ok. I just checked in on the burning votive (it's been going for 3 1/2 hrs) and it's still going strong.

I'm impressed! initially it looked like it was only going to last 2 hrs.

so... I guess I have my burgundy unscented long lasting votive after all

thanks for the replies!
