Top Notes
Black Currant, Grape
Essentiel · Coconut & Soy Blend
Black Currant & Grape
Black currant and grape first, both of them dark and juicy, closer to grape juice than to fresh fruit. Cedar sits under it and keeps the sweetness in check. It reads more like wine than candy. Fine for a kitchen or a hallway, less so for a bedroom.

Dark Pomegranate
Essentiel · Coconut & Soy Blend
Black Pomegranate
Dark pomegranate, the juice kind rather than the fruit kind. Deep and a little wine-like, with an edge of something bitter that keeps it from being simple. It throws scent far. When I make it, the wax is almost black.

Sweet Bubblegum
Essentiel · Coconut & Soy Blend
Bubblegum
Sweet bubblegum, plain and simple, like the pink squares you got as a kid. The resin note underneath makes it a little chewy instead of just sugary. Not a serious candle, and it is not meant to be. Nice in a small bathroom or a kid's room.

Lavender
Essentiel · Coconut & Soy Blend
Lavender
Lavender, true and dry, with a little wood under it so it does not smell like soap. Clean but not sharp. Most people buy this for the bedroom, and that is where I keep it too. Calm, and it does not demand attention.

Mango
Essentiel · Coconut & Soy Blend
Mango
Mango, ripe and sweet, and the sweetness stays the whole burn. It is not shy, but it is friendly. Good in summer when you want a room to feel warmer than it is. Not a subtle candle.

Pineapple
Essentiel · Coconut & Soy Blend
Pineapple
Pineapple, sweet and a little sour at the same time. It is loud for a fruit scent and it stays loud. A small amount goes a long way, so keep the wick short. Summer and holidays.

Raspberry
Raspberry, bright and a bit tart, not jam. It stays light and a little playful. Good in spring and summer, good in small rooms. It fades sooner than the heavier fruit scents.

Strawberry
Strawberry, sweet and a bit like jam rather than fresh fruit. It is cheerful and easy to like. Good in a kitchen or a small bathroom. Do not burn it for hours, the sweetness gets tiring.

Top Notes
Vanilla
Essentiel · Coconut & Soy Blend
Vanilla
Vanilla, plain and warm, a little buttery rather than bakery-sweet. It does not do anything surprising and it does not need to. This is the one people buy when they do not know what to buy. It goes with almost anything.

Top Notes
Lemon
Essentiel · Coconut & Soy Blend
Lemon
Lemon, sharp and clean, like zest and not like candy. There is a citrus note under it to keep it going. It cuts through smells in a kitchen. It fades faster than the heavy scents, so expect to reburn it.

Cherry
Essentiel · Coconut & Soy Blend
Cherry
Cherry, sweet and a bit like syrup, no almond bitterness anywhere. It is fun and it knows it. It does get sweet if you burn it too long. Good in a hallway or a bathroom.

Orange, warm and sweet rather than sharp, more like the fruit than the peel. It makes a room feel brighter. Good in the morning and good in winter. It is not a complicated scent.

Peach
Essentiel · Coconut & Soy Blend
Peach
Peach, soft and juicy and not too sweet. It smells closer to the fruit than to candy. Gentle enough for a bedroom. Good in summer, and it does not hang in the air after you put it out.
