I didn’t think I would like this one as much as i do because I’m rarely a fan of floral anything, but it’s SO so good! the florals are balanced perfectly with the musk. it smells like you’re sitting in a wooded garden as the sun sets. great throw, and smells like scent rather than perfume if that makes sense (I can’t handle perfume-y fragrance). love it! <3
I bought this because I was curious, but it is one of the most accurately named candles I’ve ever smelled. the scent blend is simultaneously creamy/sweet and earthy, and truly does evoke a sense of new beginnings while also smelling like coming home, like you’re entering a new exciting phase of your life and visiting your childhood home before setting out. would buy again!
i've smelled a number of the brand's candles through the tealight discovery kit, advent calendar, and one off purchases, and silk still holds as probably my top favorite. so heavenly and sweet and lovely. really good throw as well. my boyfriend loves it as well. 12/10!
Alright, I got a few candles and to be honest I wasn’t sure how I was going to like this one… but I am OBSESSED and I forever want my home to smell like this.
Such an awesome advent calendar. I love getting surprised by a new scent every day.
I’m so excited about these. They smell incredible, I love that they’re eco friendly, and the fact that you plant a tree with each candle sale! Will absolutely be buying my candles from Mala from here on out.
I do wish this candle had a bit stronger of a throw. that said, i understand the difficulty of working with something as mild-smelling as olive oil, and the scent blend achieved is scrumptious! it’s a warm and relaxing smell, perfect to burn at the dinner table or if you’ve got a friend over for some wine and goss.
this candle has a nice scent and definitely gives off beachy vibes, I was just hoping it would be more grapefruit forward. the grapefruit was too subtle for me, which was kind of a bummer.
I am a huge fan of woodsy smells, and the saffron enriches the wood and leather in such a beautiful way, I can’t get enough! it’s such a yummy cozy smell, a forest on a sunny autumn day. this was the candle that originally made me fall in love with this brand. i have bought so many of them because i never want to run out.
I received this candle as a free with purchase and I was so pleasantly surprised! Sweet scents are really not my thing so I shy away from them thinking they’ll be too sickly sweet. It was a great surprise to burn! Just the right sweet and subtle mint smell to make your space smell festive! Would Recommend for the holidays or a hostess gift for sure!
Very sweet and long lasting sent would 100% recommended to anybody
i did not love the smell right out of the box. for me the cherry came through very heavy and almost sickly sweet, akin to cough syrup, not fresh and tart. that's not at all what i was expecting and is not a smell i enjoy, even in the best formulations. given the other reviews and the description, i was hoping for a smokey, vanilla heavy, pipe tobacco scent. i burned it anyways after debating for a while if i should, seeing as i won't be able to return it now that i've used it. was waiting for the vanilla and tobacco to come through more in the burn, and i was let down. the initial smell once it started burning was still cherry, albeit a little softer. i left it in my bathroom with the door closed for 10 minutes to see if the general scent throw comes off as more vanilla or tobacco, and i was sadly disappointed. walking into the room i was hit by a wall of cough syrup.
not very happy with this purchase, i personally don't even get a hint of vanilla, tobacco or sandalwood, all of which are some of my favourite scents. the cherry is just too overpowering. though to be fair the description does speak to the cherry note. since i can't return it i guess i'll have to find someone who's into that smell...
this was a blind buy based off of reviews so if there's anyone else out there considering it, if you like cherry you'll probably love this candle cause its smooth and has a decent throw. but in my opinion it should have cherry in the name given how heavy it is featured!
Love this candle! It's very subtle so I can't really smell it unless I'm right next to it. The scent is clean and sandlewood.
All time favorite candle, such a beautiful scent and fills the whole room
I was excited to get this candle because of the great reviews. It smelled great when I opened it and I had very high hopes. Unfortunately, once lit it left my house smelling almost exactly like a hospital -- which I did not love. In addition, I had a couple of people over that day and the first things they said when they walked inside was, "Why does your house smell like a hospital?" I had to light incense and open the windows to clear it. It might just be that the scent blend was off for that batch of candles, I have no way of knowing. It won't keep me from purchasing from here again, I believe it's likely this particular candle. I'm not overly upset, just happy I've been able to purge my house of that "illustrious" hospital smell.
Smells sooo good. Highly recommend this seller. Was packaged well so not to be damaged. Arrived quickly.

Ive tried many flavours of other brands and this one smells the best, throws well and burns clean
So fresh and perfect for hosting. Great throw
So glad they brought this back from last year. My fave matcha candle I’ve tried! Light and subtle
I could wear this as a perfume… so beautiful and luxe feeling.
I’m not even nostalgic for Barney myself (not my gen) BUT I LOVE ALL 3 of these so so much! All the cozy comforting smells of childhood favourites🤓❤️
