Kalahari Watermelon - 3 Wick Tin Candle

The holy basil really comes through and keeps the watermelon from being too sweet—it’s like a fresh, herbal twist. I lit it in my kitchen and the whole room smelled clean and summery for hours.

The cold watermelon note is so crisp it actually cools the room, but the holy basil underneath gives it this unexpected herbal depth that keeps it from being too sweet. I lit it during a heatwave and the whole kitchen smelled like a desert oasis for hours.

This scent is surprisingly complex for a candle — the basil and lime come through just as strong as the watermelon, so it doesn't smell like candy at all. The three wicks burn evenly and fill my whole living room in about twenty minutes.
