I found some when I was in California, but they were a little pricey.

They're like Fifty freaking dollars per candle. My fav gift store in Charlotte sold them. They did smell nice... but not $50 nice.

I wish I could remember the brand candles I used to buy. They were fantastic, but not terribly expensive either. Like Meowi pointed out, I've been using incense for years instead.... MUCH cheaper. And the smell permeates the house more, too. I still have cheap candles everywhere for light, though. So you get the best of both atmospheres: incense for smell, candles for light .

I go to Trapp Candles to fulfill all my candle-related needs.

Yikes, that's right; they ('Illume' candles) were about that price in a gift shop I browsed through while in Napa, California.

I passed on the candles, and instead, when I was in SoCal later, stopped by Point Dume beach.
