Thing I Bought That I love: Apotheke Brooklyn’s Sea Salt Grapefruit Candle, $38
Described on the Apotheke Brooklyn website as “the tang of sea salt, black pepper, and ripe grapefruit is balanced by dew drop accords and tarragon, for a fragrance like summer by the sea,” (which, let’s be honest, sort of half makes sense?) this candle is THE SHIT. The scent is just slightly sweet, but clean and crisp, like a perfect sauvignon blanc. It fills a room, but isn’t super perfumey—it’s sort of just makes it feel like your home just happens to smells that good all the time. The design is simple—this isn’t a status candle—but it is high quality and burns really well and thus fits any decor and could be a good gift for pretty much anyone.
In summation, Apotheke Brooklyn’s Sea Salt Grapefruit Candle is A Thing I Bought That I Love.
#NOTANAD
Inspired by Mindy Kaling’s long-defunct “Things I Bought That I Love” blog, I’ve decided to share some of my own favorite Things I Bought That I Love in a series I’m calling #NotAnAd. Never sponsored, always highly-recommended, these are all things that make my life easier or more fun, make me smile or feel good, or I just really, really like. And I’m sharing them because I think you might too.
