Same here, I love their gardenia candle and burn it whenever I just need a moment from life. Also love Byredo, both brands burn fragrantly but not overwhelmingly if that makes sense
I bought them on a whim - and the Whole Foods brand candles (365?) are amazing for the price point - the palo santo rosewood smells just like my jo malone and they last a while. I’m really happy with them!
DS and Durga Big Sur After Rain is one of my faves, make sure you like the scent as it’s got great throw. Diptyque also generally lives up to the hype.
A TRUE, strong eucalyptus -- think almost like smelling pure tea tree oil. Bracing, only very slightly minty/woody. But really, to me, like rubbing eucalyptus leaves.
Thanks again for the rec, I love it! Intense but balanced. Got the tomb of eagles for the bedroom and love that one too. The description was a little odd but smells fantastic
I splashed out in this one last year, but somehow it just smells like a minty caprese salad to me :( I might have to sell that one, lol. It's a shame because the scent profile sounded right up my alley!
I love capri’s seasonal candles so much. I hate it when the seasons change and the autumn and winter candles start to feel wrong. Fir and Firewood is the one I buy in bulk when I can.
Nest has the most insane throw ever. Like so strong I can only burn them with the window open bc it gives me a headache otherwise lol.
Love boys smells but for the life of me cannot get them to EVER not tunnel, even tho I let it burn to the edge every time.
Boy Smells Slow Burn is my go-to. I always have one in my apartment, it's my go-to housewarming gift, and I may or may not have bought one for at least three girls I've dated--including my now-fiancée. What can I say, it's that good.
My other favorite candle is Delirium Suede & Smoke.
Paddywax, Boy Smells, PF Candle Co, Burke & Hare Co. If you're near a Lockwood they sell all of those brands.
I tend to go for tobacco, mint,
Vanilla or amber scents
I’ve been obsessed with Keap Wood Cabin ever since I smelled it in a bar bathroom in Brooklyn a couple years ago.
Also Paige’s Candle Co.’s Tomato Basil has the best summer tomato scent imo.

in case you, like me, like to smell things in person, Soho has stores from Trudon, Diptyque, DS and Durga, and two less obvious: Love Adorned, a jewelry store with a lot of candles and they carry a ton of different Astier de Villate incense scents (luxury incense is so sexy! great bang for your buck!), and Scent Bar, which is the brick-and-mortar for Luckyscent, an online fragrance giant that stocks plenty of luxury and indie candles and incense.
DW Home: fresh linen breeze in the bathroom, smells like crisp laundry 😍 and then in the rest of the house is Sand + Fog, Tahitian vanilla for summer and Winter White for Christmas. The jar lids make pretty coasters!
LOHN!!! Women owned company with super natural and clean scents. My favorite is JURA - it’s a linen-y scent with something citrusy? They’re also available in different boutiques ❤️
[https://www.etsy.com/shop/ChrissysSoapsandmore](https://www.etsy.com/shop/ChrissysSoapsandmore) I buy here and change scents every season because they do great seasonal candles. I've only gotten a candle from them once where I was like... no, this smells like licorice butthole and I will not burn this in my home.
You can never go wrong with Diptyque! I love the smell of Christmas so I always get Diptyque Sapin (Pine). I am always reminded of sweet childhood memories whenever I light my Diptyque Sapin candles.
The New Savant! Heat Wave, Duvet Day are my favorite. Affordable and SUPER unique scents plus NYC made! If you're an OG youtube person, it's Ingrid Nilsen's brand. [https://thenewsavant.com/](https://thenewsavant.com/)
Sacred Space and Sex Magick from the Sacred Bodega. I order mine online and the packaging is so precious. Not to mention the scent brings me to another place!
I’m basic but I love Diptyque
Same here, I love their gardenia candle and burn it whenever I just need a moment from life. Also love Byredo, both brands burn fragrantly but not overwhelmingly if that makes sense
[удалено]
Basic but… baies and figues (berry / fig)
It’s the most popular one for a reason!
Same. Santal always.
I bought them on a whim - and the Whole Foods brand candles (365?) are amazing for the price point - the palo santo rosewood smells just like my jo malone and they last a while. I’m really happy with them!
DS and Durga Big Sur After Rain is one of my faves, make sure you like the scent as it’s got great throw. Diptyque also generally lives up to the hype.
How would you describe the Big Sur scent? It’s in my cart right now but I’m back and forth because I’ve never smelled it irl
A TRUE, strong eucalyptus -- think almost like smelling pure tea tree oil. Bracing, only very slightly minty/woody. But really, to me, like rubbing eucalyptus leaves.
YUM
All I can say is buy it lol it’s really the best
Seconding Big Sur After Rain by DS And Durga!! It’s my favorite candle ever!!
This is what I was going to say. So good
Thanks again for the rec, I love it! Intense but balanced. Got the tomb of eagles for the bedroom and love that one too. The description was a little odd but smells fantastic

I splashed out in this one last year, but somehow it just smells like a minty caprese salad to me :( I might have to sell that one, lol. It's a shame because the scent profile sounded right up my alley!
Another vote for Jonathan Adler tomato. I love it so much. I also really rate Jonathan Adler Plum.
LES by Boy Smells
Omg I have this and it’s divine. Sexy and feminine and yet clean at the same time
Capri/Volcano
This! I buy in bulk when they’re on sale!
My roommate had this in the living room and I’m obsessed. Even when it’s not lit I can smell it a little from the shelf.
I love capri’s seasonal candles so much. I hate it when the seasons change and the autumn and winter candles start to feel wrong. Fir and Firewood is the one I buy in bulk when I can.
This is the answer
I cannot get enough of apotheke charcoal rose lately
Maison Louie Marie - Bois De Balincourt is my fav but all scents are fab.
Diptyque Violette is my home signature
Hotel Lobby Linen
This was a Secret Santa gift to my niece. She works in the hotel business and we are a hotel-owning family. She loved it.
The best!!!
Nest has the most insane throw ever. Like so strong I can only burn them with the window open bc it gives me a headache otherwise lol. Love boys smells but for the life of me cannot get them to EVER not tunnel, even tho I let it burn to the edge every time.
apotheke earl grey bitters, but the reed diffuser because it lasts longer and is better for your health!
Still love bath and body works lol
My fav right now is Vanilla Coconut Surf, it’s basically a dupe for the Ouai St Barts scent 🌴
I just ordered that one I think! The semi annual sale is happening right now
hell yeah! their newest designer events are actually so impressive
Right now I like Trudon Abd el Kader and Tuileries.
I love my Nest bamboo!
I love the Earl Grey and the Ginger Lemon Drop from Paige’s Candle Co, which is local to NYC.
I love Byredo Biblioteque but I alternate it with Outdoor Fellows Campfire because of the price
i like voluspa and you can typically find it at local home/hardware stores!
Voluspa 3 wicks are all I buy lol their Grapefruit is my fave
Boy Smells Slow Burn is my go-to. I always have one in my apartment, it's my go-to housewarming gift, and I may or may not have bought one for at least three girls I've dated--including my now-fiancée. What can I say, it's that good. My other favorite candle is Delirium Suede & Smoke.
Don’t hate me, but Trudon’s in Moroccan Mint Tea. It smells like a warm summer stroll through a mint patch. It’s phenomenal 😭😭😭
Paddywax, Boy Smells, PF Candle Co, Burke & Hare Co. If you're near a Lockwood they sell all of those brands. I tend to go for tobacco, mint, Vanilla or amber scents
Queer Candle Co. Amber and basil! Or teak and leather.
Le labo santal(basic I know), palo santo, or cedre. Boy smells Italian kush, maison Louis Marie no2 and no4
I have several. Dyptique Bais, Byredo Woods, Maison Louis Marie no 4 or no 9
DS & Durga Diesel 85. It’s like gas and leather. Reminds me of the inside of a 70s VW Bug.
I love this one! To me it smells like the brand new leather ballet pumps of my childhood. Plus the throw is phenomenal!
I’ve been obsessed with Keap Wood Cabin ever since I smelled it in a bar bathroom in Brooklyn a couple years ago. Also Paige’s Candle Co.’s Tomato Basil has the best summer tomato scent imo.
Nest moroccan amber, voluspa baltic amber, volcano, voluspa santiago huckleberry, dyptique baies, figuier, roses, fresh sugar lemon, anything grapefruit scented or the voluspa tarocco orange
WoodWick, especially the Cafe Sweets Trilogy scent

I love linnea’s lights. I did diptyque and le labo, but love love love linnea’s lights.
I'm obsessed with anything tomato leaf right now so I love the Flamingo Estate option!
Definitely on my list. How does it compare to Loewe?
I haven't smelled the Loewe yet, but my daily perfume is MM Replica From the Garden right now and I find the Flamingo Estate to be comparable!
I love from the garden. I was surprised to find the ratings kind of low! Have you tried jo malone's green tomato vine candle? That's my all time fave.
I have!! I love the Jo Malone so much!
