D.S. & DURGA Pros & Cons according to customers

Pros
  • The scent of D.S. & DURGA products is amazing and smells exactly like different locations in California
  • The hand soap scent stays on your hands for a couple of hours which is nice
  • The candles make a unique and memorable home fragrance
  • D.S. & Durga is cruelty-free.
  • The thick peach-colored glass of the candles is beautiful
  • It would make a great gift for California expats, guys, and anyone who's not into floral or sweet scents
Cons
  • The candle has no labels and looks like a blank candle, which is confusing and disappointing.
  • The wick was not centered, causing wax to build up on one side and preventing it from burning correctly.
  • The scent of the candle does not match the description, in this case, the scent of cement before it rains.
