Let’s be honest, we all have to contend with the post-vacation blues at times (the post-Disney blues are real and swift!) During those difficult transitions back to the real world, a little reminder of our favorite places and happy memories can bring some of the magic back into our lives.
During my own most recent bout of the Disney blues, I was searching for some candles that would remind me of my favorite place and offer a little comfort. Let me tell you, wow, there are SO many options out there for Disney and Universal inspired scents, but I decided to try the Magic Candle Company.
Since this was my first purchase from them, I decided to get a 4 pack of small candles, so that I could try a few different scents. After much indecision (there are A LOT of scent options), I chose the Bakery on Mainstreet, Banshee Flight, Contemporary, and Space Cruiser Resort.
The candles arrived very well packaged in a fun retro themed box that made the unboxing more exciting than your standard Amazon package. Each one was poured in a sturdy metal tin with it’s own colorful label. While the visual aspects definitely added to the experience, what I was really interested in was whether or not they would smell familiar.

Although my husband hates sugary sweet scents, I love them. They always bring back warm memories making me feel like I’m home for the holidays, and the Bakery on Mainstreet candle did not disappoint. It smells like a vanilla cake and reminds me of walking down mainstreet staring at that beautiful castle, with a world of possibility before me.

I have stayed at several resorts on Disney property and have enjoyed each and every visit, but I have a soft spot for the Contemporary resort, so I was excited to give the Magic Candle Company’s Contemporary scent a try. This candle had a lovely light floral scent that definitely felt like walking through a hotel lobby.
Banshee flight
When I saw this candle, I knew I definitely had to try it and hoped that it would remind me of the exhilarating feeling I get on one of my favorite rides. Although you might think that it would have a fresh coastal scent, I found that it was actually a very pleasant and not overpowering fruity scent mixed with lavender and a more grounded scent that I can’t quite identify. Regardless, it was enjoyable and although I can’t remember the exact smell of that ride, I can see how the Banshee Flight Magic Candle would make sense for that experience.

For this last candle, I have to be honest, I haven’t had the pleasure of visiting the new immersive hotel experience that inspired this scent, so I can’t speak to it’s authenticity or accuracy. However, this candle does have a very unique and memorable scent that I have really enjoyed.
Overall, I would say that my experience with the Magic Candle Company has been a great one. If you are looking for something to relieve your own post-vacation blues, then their scented candles are definitely worth a try.
