Apfel

I lit one in the bedroom before guests arrived and the mix of red apples with that soft musk filled the whole space without being cloying. Honestly, it smells like actual summer fruit, not some fake candle version.

The crisp red apple note is what sold me, and it really does brighten the room the moment you light it. It's sweet but not cloying, with that soft musk keeping it from feeling too much like candy.

The musk at the base keeps the sweetness from feeling cloying, so it works as an all-day spritz without giving me a headache. I've got it on my desk and every time I walk past, that red apple and summer fruit mix makes me smile.
