NARS Acapulco candle


When I was in NY last month one of the things I stumbled upon was Nars Candles. I had no idea NARS did candles, I have to say. Probably because even though I love NARS makeup, I rarely get to a counter, and then it's a small one. This one had everything including candles. I gave two a sniff, and the first one in the red glass( Jaipur) was a bit too floral for me. However, the black one called Acapulco smelled amazing. Woodsy and spicy. I haven't actually burned one since I didn't buy it, but I am tempted to get one.

Here is the description :
"A delicious top note of rich, velvety chocolate is combined with a delicate blend of whipped cream accord and coffee bean for intensity and depth, while the dry down captures the senses with a distinctive base of cocoa powder and creamy vanilla. "

The candle has 70 hours burn time, is paraffin free and retails for 45.00
