Chesapeake Bay Candle: Giveaway

This giveaway is now closed with 434 comments. Thank you to all who entered. Congratulations to the lucky winner ~ ZESTYWONDERLAND!

These ceramic fragrance balls from Chesapeake Bay Candle are a really neat way to add fragrance to your home without the use of a candle. What a safer alternative. There is no need to light a flame to fill your home with invigorating scents.

I received their Tonka Bean Fig Ceramic Fragrance Ball. This is a wonderful decorative piece and the versatile ivory color will work well in different decor styles. I am enjoying the scent too. I prefer fruitier scents over floral and this works nicely for me, however it's not a heavy sweet smell. It's just perfect. I love the concept of the ball. I've either used candles or fragrance sticks so this is nice change. It looks beautiful when displayed and comes in a beautiful box. This would make a terrific gift.

Here is some information from their website:

"This light evocative scent mingles the sweetness of fig with warm woodsy notes of cedar and sandalwood. Delicate hints of tonka bean paired with birch add sophistication and intensity to this beautiful blend.

Embossed ceramic fragrance ball is approximately four inches in diameter, and contains a sachet of fragrance beads."

Chesapeake Bay Candle would like to offer one lucky reader a Travel Set in Tonka Bean Fig!
