When we moved our nose closer to this sandalwood candle by Diptyque we couldn't figure out what the top note was. We also couldn't pry our nose away, as the strength of the scent was captivating. We longed to know whether it would hold its own when lit - we shouldn't have questioned it, because Diptyque is known for its brazen scents that can illuminate an entire room.
Diptyque, $60
