4711 Acqua Colonia Blood Orange & Basil 香氛蠟燭

The scent throw is surprisingly strong for a candle this size—the blood orange comes through bright and juicy while the basil keeps it from being overly sweet. My whole hallway smells like a summer kitchen for hours after I blow it out.

Lit it for the first time this evening and within ten minutes the whole room smelled like a ripe blood orange, with the basil giving it a nice savory edge that keeps it from being too sweet. Burned clean and even for about three hours, no soot on the glass.

The cold throw is impressive right out of the box—one whiff and the room smells like a sunny citrus grove. It burns clean and steady, and the spicy basil balances the sweet orange just perfectly for a cozy evening.
