Phlur– Wild Balsam

What I love most about this candle is its powerful scent and sleek presentation. Phlur candles ($45) are beautifully packaged in white jars that make your space feel luxurious. Wild Balsam is the quintessential holiday scent and this candle doesn’t disappoint. It is an instant portal to holiday memories wrapped in bright bergamot, freshly crushed pine needles, and snapped balsam branches mingled with cool juniper, spicy amber, and rich cedarwood. Boasting a 70-hour burn time, this candle lasts long with great fragrance all the way through.
