There are just some things I like to do when I’m shopping (and thusly rope people into doing as well). One of these things is candle-sniffing. I love, love, LOVE candles.

I’m also stupid sensitive to scents, and can often taste scents, so I’m particular about them. I like earthy scents, or salty. Pine. Dirt. Sandalwood… not greatly fond of food scents, but if they’re more appealing I won’t mind terribly. But “laundry”? Cmon. Bad. So many candles smell more like bathroom cleaners than anything pleasant.

Anyway, I have candles that smell like literal wet dirt and I’m not exactly in the clear for taste.
