With a focus on user experience, I implemented seamless navigation and engaging product displays to enhance customer interaction and satisfaction. This project highlights my ability to utilize Wix's robust capabilities to build a sophisticated ecommerce solution tailored to meet the needs of candle and aroma enthusiasts.

Combining warm lighting with a well-chosen fragrance can really set the mood, and an Asian candle holder can add a unique touch to the whole experience. Wix Studio makes it easy to showcase these kinds of decorative pieces beautifully. Playing around with high-quality images and animations can highlight intricate designs while letting customers picture them in their own space.

Really appreciate your insight — and sorry for the late response. You’re spot on about how lighting and fragrance work together to create an atmosphere, and I love that you mentioned the visual side too.

I’ve been meaning to explore more ways to blend scent and design, and your mention of Asian candle holders and animation ideas got me thinking. Might experiment with more styled visuals or ambient product shots next.

Thanks for the push — if you’ve seen any designs or examples that stood out to you recently, I’d genuinely love to hear about them.

I see it's been a while since this was posted, but I’m curious—have you made any updates or changes since then? I imagine customer preferences and seasonal trends might play a big role in how things evolve. Have you noticed any shifts in what designs or scents people are drawn to lately?

Thanks a lot for the thoughtful comment — and sorry for the delay in getting back to you. I genuinely appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts.

You’re absolutely right — customer preferences and seasonal trends have a big influence. Over the past few months, I’ve noticed a shift toward lighter, cleaner designs and more subtle, softer scents. There’s also been a growing interest in minimalist packaging and gender-neutral styles.

I'm currently planning a few updates with these trends in mind, and I'd love to hear your perspective too. Have you noticed any changes in the kinds of designs or scents you’ve been drawn to lately?
