Book Cellar

my favorite candle of all time. its not exactly what i was hoping for.... i wanted it to smell like an actual basement. its pretty close though. to me it is a tiny bit spicy, not cinnamon but almost. like a very warm basement or attic. i definitely dont get a lot of vanilla... maybe a tiny tiny bit. but it is just very unique. nostalgic. i really do wish the scent was stronger when burning. i also like the old books one.

I bought this one out of curiosity. It smelled better than I expected. The vanilla helped. I can see why this scent has a cult following, but it’s not for me.

When I saw this scent, I was so intrigued. It DOES smell like basement (but only in the best way, I promise!), and the hint of vanilla goes well with it. It's definitely a weaker candle, but for this scent, I like that.

I can only smell vanilla, not getting any sort of basement scent. Disappointing.

Ok so initial sniff test, before burning, has notes of vanilla, as well as the dirt and basement hints..... Which I honestly found a little gross.
The good news, though, is that when you burn it, it's just a very rich vanilla - but not a strong scent. So it's not gross when you burn it - but it's so weak/mild that it's hard to catch the scent.
