This doesn’t seem very spicy to me, but that is completely beside the point. The cold throw is amazing! If you want subtle, just leave the top on. Otherwise, it is as if you could drink this out of the air. And it is delicious! Warming it simply makes the whole house smell good. Even through doors. My cat is only offended by the strength of the candle, rather than the scent, as is usually the case. And! The container is so darn classy, it makes everything else I own seem just a little crappier. I don’t mind! I’m not the lamp that needs to step up its game. Ahem. (I’m staring daggers at lamp. If it took its cues from this candle, maybe I would like it more. Maybe I would pay more attention to it and wouldn’t look online for a prettier one.) Anyway, I’m tempted to stomp into my nearest coffee shop, shove this candle under someone’s nose, and demand that they make the smell into a beverage. A really large one! Can’t do it? I’m willing to run around to all the coffee shops until I find someone who can! I really enjoy this candle. Yay!
