About a week ago I was sent a Glade Flameless Candle. In exchange all the company asked was that I spread the word about the new Flameless Candle, and the free refills that they sent to me. It seemed like a fair exchange.

While Spreading the news to friends, I figured a better way to spread the news about it would be to simply review it, and all of the refills I was sent.

A Little About The Candle:

Before mentioning the French Vanilla Refill, I will mention the actual candle first. The Glade Flameless Candle is a neat concept. Inside of a glass jar lies a small plastic device that you are too add scented oil bulbs to. Not only will the device allow for fragrance to fill the room, but with a small touch you can also turn the candle on. It will glow and give off a very neat and realistic flickering candle effect. If you didn't look directly into the jar, you would think that what was burning was a real candle.

French Vanilla Refill:

French Vanilla was not the first oil refill I had used. The first was Clean Linen, and to be honest I was not to thrilled with the lack of scent. I figured that even though Clean Linen lacked a strong scent, French Vanilla may be able to impress me.

I clicked the little oil bulb into the plastic device, and let it do it's work.

I was able to smell the scent before the candle even began dispersing the scent. The moment I unscrewed the oil bulbs lid, I was greeted with a warm french vanilla fragrance. It was enjoyable, with a small hint of sugar. I hoped that the scent would last, and I hoped it would be strong; unlike Clean Linen.

I left the room, and came back a few hours later. The moment I opened the door was immediately greeted with the same warm sugary french vanilla scent that I had first observed. Impressed!

The scent was strong, easily detectable, and filled the room with a warm feeling, setting in a glorious relaxing mood.

Last:

I plugged French Vanilla in about 4 days ago, and still it's scent is lasting long and strong. Clean Linens scent faded in just a few sad short hours, but French Vanilla keeps on kicking. The scent fills the room quite quickly, and it does not weaken over time. You get non-stop continuous scent.

Overall:

I like it!

If you want to try something battery-less as well as flameless, you might like the Minus Wicks product from For Every Body (www.foreverybody.com). It's water based and can be used with or without a candle warmer. There are nine great fragrances and they are all organic. You can wash out the container when you are done and reuse it, unlike the Wisp which just creates more garbage when the oil runs out. Check them out! My favorite is the green apple scent!

I was able to test out this product though BzzAgent. I was impressed with the design and concept. I love not having to worry about a flame when burning a candle in lesser used rooms of my house. I did though find the scent to be too overpowering, even at the lowest scent release level. However, I usually don't use too many home scenting products, just traditional candles. I have tried the Clean Linen and have the Vanilla on deck for when this oil refill is empty. The Clean Linen has been going for over a month and the batteries are also still going strong. My flameless candle is currently in my large-sized laundry room in the basement. The room is large enough that the scent is perfectly balanced and keeps the sometimes musky basement smelling great. The candle feature helped out this week when one light bulb in the laundry room burnt out. Since this is battery powered, I just pressed the top and had enough light to change the bulb. I tried the candle in my main living area and bat
