Bois d'Or | Mini candela profumata

I lit this mini candle during a rainy afternoon and my whole apartment smelled like a high-end cigar lounge, minus the smoke. The licorice and cedar combo is surprisingly smooth, and it burns evenly without any soot.

The scent is so rich and layered — the licorice and cedar hit first, then the leather and sandalwood linger for hours after I blow it out. It makes my whole hallway smell like a high-end boutique without being overpowering.

Got this as a gift for a friend and ended up buying one for myself the same week. The leather and incense notes linger beautifully after the flame is out, and the patchouli keeps it from being too sweet. Burns evenly down to the last bit, which I’ve rarely seen in mini candles.
