Now that the temperatures in New York have been popping back up into the 40s again (balmy!), I’m cracking the windows for daytime fresh air and digging my floral candles back out (goodnight, pine scents, your time is up!). I’m in the market for some candles with more than a fourth of their wax left, though, which has led me towards the vague (but oddly descriptive?) world of online candle shopping.
I’ve got to admit: The descriptions on candles with their “scent profiles'' often make me giggle. What does “makeshift architecture of these poetic gems” really mean? And can you actually boil down the scent of “russet underbrush?” That said, it’s relatively easy to sniff out a winning candle even from afar, and the following list of options all either sound enticing, are confirmed delicious-smelling, or simply promise to add a pop of springtime happiness to any table.
