It might seem odd at first to pair this candle with an album that can come across as chilly as Torres’s excellent 2017 release “Three Futures”, but just hear me out. I think pumpkin has clearly dominated culture as the king of fall flavors and scents, but maple remains the rightful heir to that position. It’s my ideal fall candle because its scent is pervasive, inviting, warm, and sweet. I’m including it here, but please keep in mind it sells out often. In my daily life, there is no brand I love more than DW Home, and no candle I buy as often as their Maple Hazelnut. Pairing 2: DW Home Maple Hazelnut / Torres – Three Futures 6 Storm in stores at TJ Maxx and Marshalls, or try buying this, which while being on the company site, looks nothing like the beautiful blue jar I got. You can find Scentsational Soaps & Candles No. 6 Storm, and add another dimension to that calm. Play tracks like “Again” and “Cherry Blossom” through your house, and hear them creep across the room like a gorgeous mist. They are complex but never oppressive, much the same as the scent given off by Storm. Their music is powerful but never overdoes it. While you might think of pairing it with floral scents that feel more in line with song titles “Honeysuckle” or “Cherry Blossom,” I think the array of fruit found in Storm is more fitting. I love this EP to pieces and am thrilled to include it here. I’ve decided to pair Storm with Ow, the 2019 EP from Pom Pom Squad. None of these components sing louder than the others, and the result is a more subdued earthy scent. Storm’s label proclaims it contains tangerine, blackberry, and sugar cane. 6 Storm from Scentsational Soaps and Candles does a good job of making its presence known, and while there are many facets to its scent, it remains subtle. Perhaps it’s just the slow burn, but I find it takes ages for some soy candles to fill a room with the scent you chose. For me, the only flaw with them comes in the more subtle throw.
Besides the obvious benefit of them being biodegradable, they last longer than standard paraffin. I, like most reasonable people, love soy candles.
