Pros
Verdict
Overall sentiment towards Royal Essence is overwhelmingly positive, with customers expressing high satisfaction with both the scented candles and the surprise jewellery hidden inside. The products are frequently purchased as gifts, delivering a memorable and enjoyable unboxing experience alongside well-regarded fragrances and attractive accessories. While minor logistical or sizing preferences are occasionally noted, the core offerings consistently meet or exceed expectations.
Edit: This issue has now been resolved with the company. If I could leave -10 stars I would. The customer service of this company is appalling! My mother overseas ordered a candle from RE as a birthday gift for me, the one that arrived at my house was already used/burned and the ring bag was just laying on top! After some back and forth with… Read more
them my mother managed to get them to send a replacement, well they sent it to a completely different address, not the address I live at where the first USED candle was sent, so we never got it and it eventually was returned to them via AusPost. Well after explaining what had happened to the not so helpful [Name Removed] from their customer service she kept insisting that the candle is in a PO Box in NSW waiting for me to collect it, after 3 emails explaining that not only do I not live in NSW or have a PO Box she continued to tell me that that's where I needed to go collect it from.
So let me get this straight [Name Removed] .. you want me to hop on a plane and fly to a town I have never been to in another state, when I live in QLD, to pick up a candle in a PO Box I don't even own because you guys sent us an original used candle then sent the replacement to a wrong address?? Get real! Then you told us we would have to pay to have another re-shipped on top of that! You have to be kidding. Never again will I ever use this company or recommend it to anyone ever again. You sent us the used candle to begin with then you sent the replacement to a completely different address, none of which was our fault.
STEER absolutely clear of this company! God forbid you try to get what you paid for and that they would actually rectify their own mistakes!
Love my fragrant , beautiful cactus candle and received a beautiful yellow gold sparkle surprise . Absolutely love the ring, hint of green pearlescence , good quality. The candle jar is beautifully made. Highly recommend! Thankyou Royal Essence, will be purchasing again!
Received a candle in the post as a birthday gift. Imagine my shock when I opened it up and it had already been previously lit! The mystery bag was at the very top? Not at all covered by wax. I was very disappointed. I took the little bag out but this is what it looked like when I opened it up :(

i did not paid attention to the instructions and it was a very big surprise for me to find a ring inside. Its a very nice idea of gift. I have received the mint choc chip candle as a gift too and the smell is so nice.
Beautiful ring. Loyal custy here since 2020. Love the candles but I think R/E need to include bigger ring sizes. I used to be a size 10 band but I blew up after having another child. Ring size 12. Any chances we can include these sizes??
Follow-up · No ring sizes are missing. R/E only do ring sizes from 6-10 bands but I'm so sure that there are plus size girlie out there like myself that would fancy being able to wear these beautiful rings because I have collected a few now and I can't wear them anymore. Please include bigger bands - love Royal Essence xox
Absolutely beautiful candles and jewellery thankyou guys so much for it will buy again
Negative reviews
A gift from a living daughter – Candle smells lovely, jewellery earrings studs; gold metal, with clear stones, look cheap. Have had a couple of these pieces of jewellery & they are always valued on the lowest level, stones have fallen out, very disappointing. I wouldn’t buy as a gift
Cute As – Cute ring, apparently worth $200... I don't see the rrp value
Not great Be extremely careful – I ordered over $170 worth of products, order was delivered with no issues however I was sent the wrong product. a Bath bomb without a ring inside when I paid for a bath bomb with a size 7 ring. I have been in contact with the company and they have now apparently sent 3 replacements that Australia post have lost. Absolutely ridiculous and there is… Read more
no explanation except it it is out of their hands.... Seems strange the first time shipping products had no issue and then all of a sudden Australia post have lost 3 deliveries.

Firstly the shopping was so fast and so secure with the box being filled with air!! Once you open the box the beautiful smell just hits you, the dopamine you get from the scent of this candle made me jump up and down!!! That wasn’t even the best part though the jewellery it was so close to the top so only a short wait for such an incredibly… Read more

The candles smell absolutely amazing , I just had to keep removing wax as it kept melting overtop of the other wicks but once I got a quarter way in it was fine :)
I was absolutely blown away by the ring I received from my Royal Essence Candle. The ring is genuinely stunning – a beautiful green heart-shaped stone surrounded by sparkling detail, and it honestly looks far more expensive than it is. Knowing it’s valued at £103 made it even more exciting, but the quality really speaks for itself. The fit is… Read more
perfect, it catches the light beautifully, and I’ve had so many compliments already. It feels well-made and special, not like a cheap surprise at all. Royal Essence Candles have completely exceeded my expectations – such a lovely surprise and a brilliant added touch to an already amazing candle experience. I’ll definitely be ordering again!
Firstly I love the candle Mermaid kisses and that it's made from sustainable soy wax is a bonus, the suprise jewellery item was a ring .. and can you believe it was my actual size .. so pretty I love it .
I purchased my products a while ago,when they had a sale on. I burn a candle every now and then and find a surprise inside. I've had two rings so far and now a necklace. The candle I'm burning at the moment is the Christmas Cookie 400g, it smells absolutely divine. I've got a candle burning pretty much 24/7 in my house, one burns out, I light… Read more
another one straight away. I also gave a girlfriend a gift, one of the body scrubs, which had a ring inside also, she absolutely loved it. She did the appraisal and told me it was appraised at about $250, she was very excited and happy with her gift
Sweet Pea bath bomb was absolutely gorgeous, smell and the feeling of my skin after.

My boyfriend got me one as a gift and I absolutely love it !!!!
Nice treat - my brother is missing and this was bought for me as a gift and a memento to wear everyday
Brought my daughter a watermelon & lemonade soy candle for her 14th birthday. The candle smells devine and is very big. Very pretty ring, just perfect for her. Appraisal was $175 more than I originally paid. Thank you, this is such a beautiful gift that keeps on giving.
