I'm about to burn right through this one so here I am reviewing it. The name was really a mystery to me. I had no idea what to expect when I saw the name. It's basically a holiday candle though.
Voluspa claims:

I did learn what a pomander is though. It's a little ball for perfumes and herbs that was worn in the middle ages. Used to perfume the air and protect against infection. Pretty Cool.
I think they were known for being pretty spicy...and this is a spiced scent. I'm not a fan of cinnamon scents but I found this to be OK. If I had to describe the scent it smells like cranberry, apples, spices like cinnamon, and evergreen/pine trees. Very Holiday. It really reminds me of the Bath and Body Works Leaves candle except this scent is way better. It also packs quite a punch for such a small candle. I have no problem smelling it.
It's definitely a living room/family room scent to me.
The candle itself is coconut wax and other veggie waxes. I'm not sure if it's paraffin free because it doesn't say on the website. It comes in the cutest tin and gives you 25 hours of burn time. I don't think I got quite that much though. I love the tins they comes in, packaging is an A+.
Overall, it's a great quality candle with a nice Holiday scent but I'm not big on these type of spicy holiday scents so it's not a repurchase for me. I prefer pine holiday scents. I would recommend it though if that's your jam, I just wouldn't purchase it again for myself.
