Macanudo Candle * [SOLD OUT]

The neroli top note hits first thing when I light it, then the vetiver and cut grass settle into something earthy but not heavy. Burned it for two hours and the scent stayed crisp in my office, exactly the bold freshness I was after.

The vetiver here is incredibly realistic—that hay and cut grass note actually smells like a stable after rain, not perfumey at all. Burned for about three hours and the neroli brightened everything up without getting sweet. I’ve already ordered a backup, though I’m sad it says sold out now.

I lit it in my home office and the cut grass note is so vivid it feels like I’m sitting outside after a rain. The neroli keeps it from getting too earthy, and the throw is strong without being overwhelming. Wish I’d ordered two before it sold out.
