The Voynich Manuscript was another unexpected favorite. It genuinely evokes the smell of an old book or historic library, with the leather and earthy notes giving it that wonderful aged, bookish quality. The eucalyptus and bergamot keep it from becoming too musty or heavy, though, leaving it surprisingly fresh, pleasant, and homey. It really does feel like settling into a quiet library with an ancient manuscript open in front of you.
The Pine Barrens was an easy favorite for me, but I’ll admit I’m a sucker for pine and other evergreen scents. The red pine really comes through, with the moss, earth, and cedar making it feel like standing deep in a cool pine forest. There’s something wonderfully fresh and cleansing about it without smelling artificial or overly Christmasy. Woodsy, atmospheric, and exactly the kind of forest scent I love.
The Stanley Hotel was one we absolutely loved. It has a wonderfully fresh, inviting scent that immediately brought to mind an old mountain hotel or resort tucked away in the Rockies. The evergreen and minty notes give it that crisp, cool mountain-air feeling, while the cocoa and softer notes add just enough warmth to make it feel cozy rather than sharp. Pleasant, atmospheric, and surprisingly inviting for a candle inspired by one of America’s most famously haunted hotels.
The Winchester Mystery House captures the feeling of stepping into a wealthy historic mansion. The incense and florals blend beautifully with the woody notes, giving it the sense of old rooms filled with antique furniture, polished wood, and lingering perfume. There’s a subtle mysterious quality without becoming overly dark or heavy—it feels elegant, historic, and just a little haunted.
Brattleboro Retreat Tower was one we really enjoyed. The maple is definitely noticeable, giving it a slightly sweet warmth, but it’s balanced nicely by the woodsy notes underneath. More than anything, it reminded us of being outdoors in Vermont—the trees, crisp air, and earthy sweetness of the surrounding woods. Cozy and atmospheric without becoming overly sweet, and a great match for the setting that inspired it.
Bell Witch Farm was one we absolutely loved. The honey really stands out, but in a warm, natural way rather than being overly sweet. Combined with the bourbon, tobacco, and spices, it creates the atmosphere of an old farmhouse tucked away in the middle of nowhere Tennessee—rustic, warm, and just a little eerie. It really captures that feeling of Southern countryside with something mysterious lurking just beyond the porch light.
Absolutely love this subscription! I got one for my best friend for her birthday and now we get them together which is so fun. I've only gotten 1 so far, but I LOVE the scent. Also to note, the customer service was exceptional when setting up the gift for my friend.
A great scent. It brings me a lot of JOY to have Ghost Poppy candles in my home ❤️
