I've been buying candles from Dio for a bit now and I've never been disappointed. But this one really blew me away. (Tl;dr: A candle made me cry.)
My favorite childhood vacation was the year my grandparents took me to the Smoky Mountains. I don't know how, but this candle smells exactly like it. Being outdoors in the cool air, surrounded by trees, hiking to a waterfall...it smells like that, plus, somehow, my grandfather's cologne. I think that must be the sandalwood? I've been trying to find a smell-alike for his cologne for ages, and I think this might be the closest I'll get. (And I hope this doesn't deter anyone, his cologne smelled really good!)
I hope this new scent is here to stay. I got a smaller candle in case I didn't care for it, but I'm going to go ahead and get the largest size. It probably won't be as special for everybody, but it definitely delivered on the cozy fall vibes in a way I didn't anticipate!
