Violet Scented Candles

What violet smells like
Violet is powdery and gentle, a little sweet and a little green, closer to a soft face powder than to a garden flower. It has almost no sharpness, so it smooths out whatever it is added to. In this collection it softens jasmine and honeysuckle in the florals, rounds out bergamot and saffron in the musks, and takes the edge off incense and sandalwood in the woody ones. It suits people who like quiet, comforting scents and it works well in a bedroom.
Common questions
What does a violet candle smell like?
Powdery and soft with a faint sweetness. It reads more like cashmere or clean powder than like a strong flower.
What pairs well with violet?
Musk, sandalwood, vanilla, tonka bean and bergamot. Jasmine and honeysuckle bring out its floral side.
Which room suits it?
Bedrooms and reading corners. Violet is a low key scent that will not take over a small room.

Yes, especially for someone who finds most candles too strong. Free US shipping on orders of $125 or more.
