We love the smell of old books! But not the rotten, mildewy kind – the sweet, papery sort. If you’re like us, then you’ll love our candle that smells just like those old books. This soft, comforting book-scented candle makes you want to curl up in your favorite reading chair and leaf through stacks of worn, well-loved stories. Vanilla overtones transform into a lovely, complex aroma when melted.

Subtle

It's a very subtle scent but I think that's perfect for area like a bedroom. A little vanilla heavy, could be more "old book" but still a very pleasant scent.

Ghost Candle

I never received my candle and the company has yet to reply to my messages about the candle I never received. Maybe a negative review with prompt a response. 🤞

A Favorite!

I love this scent! It's a favorite and a must have in our schoolroom especially on a cozy dreary day. Surrounded by our schoolbooks it makes for a comforting scent while we learn.

Unhappy (edited)

I accidentally gave them five stars instead of one. This was my least favorite scent out of a large order. There is no trace of dust or paper. Secondly, they raised prices from $8 to $9 for two ounces. Third, I contacted them And followed up, but despite their order updates claiming to contact them and they’ll get back to you, they never responded to me and it’s been like a month. So I’m unhappy that they’re overpriced and cannot be bothered to respond back

Nice, but too much vanilla

This scent is nice, but there's more vanilla than I would want for an "Old Books" smell. The vanilla brings too much sweetness and lightness to the candle smell. Still, it is a nice candle, and I don't dislike it.
