Whiskey + Fig - 8oz Candle (Simple Standards)

The ginger and peppercorn really come through once it’s lit, so the whiskey note isn’t overpowering—it’s a warm, grown-up kind of scent. Throw is solid for an 8oz, filled my whole living room in about twenty minutes. Definitely grabbing another before this one’s gone.

Burned this for the first time last night and the sweet fig comes through just as strong as the darker whiskey notes, which is exactly what I wanted for fall. The 8oz size is perfect for my living room, and the scent fills the space without being overwhelming.

The ginger and peppercorn give it a warm bite that balances the sweet fig perfectly—not your typical fruity candle. I lit it in my study and the scent carried just right without being overpowering, even after I blew it out.
