• Blue Volcano Candle

  $26.48

  By Capri Blue

  Capri Blue’s Blue Volcano candle has a smoky name but burns sweet and soothing, with a refreshing mix of tropical fruit scents and sweet island aromas. It’s a scented candle that’s been beloved for many years, long before scented candles came back en vogue, because it’s equal parts calming and rejuvenating — or, as one MASSE shopper put it, “cozy and refreshing!”

• Portable Fireplace Candle

  $65.00

  By D.S. & Durga

  Sure, if you happen to live in a big home with a fireplace, working chimney, access to either lots of wood or expensive forever-burning logs, and you have a ton of patience and are willing to clean out ashes and debris on the regular, you should definitely enjoy an IRL fire (just remember to put it out!). For everyone else, we suggest you take the easier and just as delightfully cozy route, with a portable fireplace candle by D.S. & Durga. It burns a smoky, rich aroma that reminds you of a forest in the morning, with top notes of dwarf pine wood and atlas cedar along with heart notes of smoke, oak ash, and cedar. One MASSE shopper says it “transports me to the woods in winter” and another smartly calls it “just like a fireplace without the hassle.”

  This candle is my LIFE. SO sexy and hey so cozy! They come in many sizes too (this is either the biggest or one of the biggest). It’s very unique- I know the tobacco sounds scary but it’s really not! I promise you’ll love this. Great for living rooms or bedrooms.
