Rose Petal Ice Cream is either the best candle someone has ever owned or something they resold after a few days. Under one of Voluspa's TikToks, fans call it exactly that, their all-time favorite, and say they'd rather get it than a bouquet; a fragrance creator puts it in her top three home scents ever. Then, in a Reddit thread where someone asked whether it was worth buying, one owner admits they couldn't stomach it and sold it, and another describes a headache of a rose stirred into heavy strawberry ice cream.

Dessert first, flowers second
Voluspa calls it a confectioner's twist on rose: vanilla bean ice cream, a tart raspberry ribbon and marshmallow crème, with sugared rose petals and a hint of almond. Fans describe a creamy, sweet rose where the ice cream takes center stage and the flower stays polite. One owner compares it to Bath & Body Works' Pink Petal Tea Cake with a bit more rose. On a perfume forum, a longtime devotee calls it candy-sweet yet somehow expensive-smelling, and a commenter there once wrote to Voluspa begging for a wearable version.
Bigger really is louder
Throw follows the format. One owner calls the 5-wick hearth, in pink cut glass, an absolute powerhouse in an open-concept space and suggests foiling it for the first few burns so the pool evens out; another simply calls the hearth strong. A smaller candle fills a two-bedroom apartment pretty well, says one Reddit commenter. At the other end, someone who picked up several of Voluspa's spring rose releases found this one, like the rest, very light.
The Classic holds 6.5 oz for about 40 hours at $30; the big jar is $48 for 100, and the hearth $275 for a rated 250. Rose lovers in that same Reddit thread also point to Milk Rose, a sweeter, marshmallowy rose, and to Sparkling Rose for something lighter.
