Chicago Candle

The chocolate and sandalwood combination is surprisingly elegant, not cloying at all, and the freshwater note keeps it from being too heavy. I lit it while reading and caught myself just staring at the flame for a solid ten minutes, completely relaxed.

Picked this up for a cozy night in and the jasmine cuts through the chocolate beautifully—not too sweet, just balanced. The sandalwood gives it a warmth that fills the whole room. Already planning to order another.

I was a little worried the chocolate note would be too sweet, but it’s actually super subtle and blends beautifully with the fresh water. The throw fills my whole living room without being overpowering. Really captures that breezy city vibe.

The sandalwood and bergamot top notes hit first, then the chocolate and fresh water blend together perfectly—it's like standing by Lake Michigan with a dessert in hand. Burns evenly and fills my whole living room without being overpowering.

I was worried the chocolate note would be overpowering, but it blends beautifully with the sandalwood and fresh water — my whole apartment smells like a breezy spring day. The jasmine is subtle enough that it doesn't trigger my allergies, which is a win for me.

The scent is nice, but the fresh water note is so faint I can barely smell it over the chocolate and sandalwood. It burns evenly enough, though I expected a bigger throw for the price.
