-Candle has a very good cold throw as well as a smooth top. It had a wet spot on the side, but nothing drastic.

-Candle was lit at 6 pm in living room with AC draft. The smell was immediate in about 10 minutes. The flame was very good. Almost full melt pool.

-Blew out at 12.

-Lit candle after getting home from work in the morning at about 8:30 am. I let it run through until 12:00 noon. Melt pool was full with minimum wall. Smell was strong.

-Lit again at 1:30 pm. Took a nap and blew out at 10 pm for an 8 hour burn. No wall of wax. Worried wick might be a little too big and soot might form near the end. Flame was small though and burning nicely. Everyone thought it was going to burn out. 17 hours total burned.

-Lit candle at 6:45 am. Melt pool is almost halfway. The wick isn't tall but dancing due to draft from above. Candle is about 1/3 way.

The candle did very well and there was no visible soot at all. Everything burned evenly and did very well with the Dwarven scent. This was double boiled and will now be testing on a wax melter.
