    I have to write this review mainly because of what just transpired this past weekend…read more Circle E became my favorite candlemaker a few years ago, with their Leather scent shooting right to the top of best candles I've ever put my nose in (their Gardenia is a close second). I was in Fredericksburg this past Saturday shopping, and accidentally left a small coinpurse of mine on their counter while juggling other items in my hands. I didn't realize it until I got home later that night (I live about 4 hours away), so I called when they opened on Sunday to see if they had it. They did, and I asked if they could mail it to me since I live so far and wouldn't be making it back anytime soon (sadly). Not only did they mail it back to me without hesitance, they must have overnighted it because it's Tuesday afternoon and I just received my purse, contents and all. HUGE EPIC thank you to the employees of Circle E! I cannot thank them enough for doing this. I fully expected someone else to have snatched it up, or for them to mail it regular mail, which would've been fine. But no, they went truly above and beyond. You guys were my favorites already, but now you'll stay there forever. Thank you again!

    Although the candle smells great, the wick is TERRIBLE! It puts off a lot of soot. It put off so…read moremuch soot, even with cutting the wick after every burn, that it stained my wall and ceiling to the point it looked as though it had been through a fire. I literally have to repaint my wall and ceiling!! I will NEVER buy another one of these candles.

    There are places you visit... and then there are places that feel like they've been quietly waiting…read morefor you to find them. Solidago is the latter. The moment you walk in, you can feel it--this isn't just a shop, it's a living, breathing creation. Every shelf, every scent, every thoughtfully placed detail feels intentional and curated with a level of care that's honestly rare to come by these days. If you're drawn to apothecary, the esoteric, the intellectual, the beautifully strange--this place is a dream. Not in a trendy, surface-level way... but in a deep, rooted, soul-nourishing kind of way. And Wade... You can tell this space is a labor of love. Wade hasn't just built a store--he's created an experience. One that honors knowledge, craft, and curiosity. There's a quiet brilliance to it. Nothing feels rushed or mass-produced. It feels studied. Respected. Lived in. You don't just browse here--you linger. You explore. You ask questions. You notice things you didn't expect to notice. It invites you to slow down, to connect, to be present in a way most retail spaces simply don't. It's rare to find a place that feels both intellectually stimulating and energetically grounding at the same time--but somehow, this one does exactly that. San Marcos is lucky to have it. Truly. If you appreciate intention, depth, and beauty in all its forms... go. Take your time. Let yourself get lost in it. Some places you shop at. This one, you experience.

    Such a cool shop. Loved the atmosphere and the kind staff. Would absolutely recommend this if…read moreyou're looking for a whimsy apothecary/ book store. Look out for this candle! Smells so good!
