Bespoke Post "Wick" Review
My delivery came with the customary info card. My box this month contained FOUR soy wax candles. All of these burned about the same which makes sense because the only thing different from candle to candle is the scent. All are made with soy wax which I found to burn very evenly (no tunneling!) and each of the scents was strong enough to fill my first floor with scent if given a little time for the entire surface to melt.
Ash & Fir Hunter Candle, 7 oz - Retail Value $18.00
Fragrance Notes: Birch, Oakmoss, Wood Smoke, Vetiver.
FYI: This candle has about a 55-hour burn time.
This candle scent transports me to a damp forest for a weekend camping trip. The notes remind me of recently snuffed-out campfires, damp leaves, and tree bark. This candle is extremely masculine but also very natural, creating a sexy fragrance that flirts with my nose throughout the house.
Ash & Fir Beacon Candle, 7 oz - Retail Value $18.00
Fragrance Notes: Dark Barrel Rum, Vanilla Bean, Oak.
FYI: This candle has about a 55-hour burn time.
This might be the sweetest-smelling candle of the bunch, but it is still very sophisticated. It is boozy and warm, and weirdly comforting with a scent I can't quite place in my memory. I think the vanilla and woods work beautifully together and soften out the rum note.
Ash & Fir Rhinebeck Candle, 7 oz - Retail Value $18.00
Fragrance Notes: Bourbon, Oakmoss, Amber, Cedar.
FYI: This candle has about a 55-hour burn time.
This one smells like a no-frills cocktail enjoyed in an old bar filled with ancient wooden booths that creak loudly. The sort of place where the ice is hand-cut and the seats are all real leather. It is super warm and sultry, and just a little creamy.
Ash & Fir Kingston Candle, 7 oz - Retail Value $18.00
Fragrance Notes: Cedar, Basalm Wood, Citrus, Rosemary
FYI: This candle has about a 55-hour burn time.
This was the most herbal of all of the candles in this box and it has such a clean scent that makes me think of both my herb garden in the summer and freshly hewn timber. I also think this is the most "evergreen" sort of scent in the box, making it perfect for winter even with those herbaceous notes!
Verdict: This month's Bespoke Post delivered some really, really beautifully scented candles. All of them burned brightly and evenly, and the scent throw was plentiful (especially going up my stairs before bed!). As a fan of more masculine scents, I adored all of these. My favorite? It is a hard choice between Hunter and Rhinebeck. But there wasn't a dud in the bunch! If you are a candle addict (guilty) this is a great selection for you. I also thought the value was great since the 4 candles bought solo would total $72 and the box was $45. That is an easy yes in my book!
To Wrap Up:
Can you still get this box if you sign up today? Yes! Get yourself some candles!
