Glossier’s new candle is based on its bestselling ‘you’ perfume – and it’s out now

Calling all fans of the brand! This one’s for, well, you

With up to 27 hours burn time, we’re adding this straight to our basket (Glossier/The Independent )

The wait is over, Glossier has finally launched a candle version of its popular “you” perfume (£45, Glossier.com).

Back in September, the brand launched its first-ever orange blossom neroli-scented candle, which came as part of the bath duo set (£45, Glossier.com), and although it was a big hit, hardcore Glossier fans couldn’t help but wish it was in the signature fragrance.

The “you” scent launched in 2017 and quickly racked up headlines, with beauty editors and fragrance fanatics lusting over the scientific scent, which works with your unique body chemistry to create a one-of-a-kind smell meaning it’s a little bit different on everyone, hence the name.

Coming as part of a kit, the new candle has a burn time of approximately 27 hours and is said to have that now iconic scent we know and love from the cult brand.

However, it will be available for a limited time only, so you’ll have to act fast if you want to invest in the blowout success.

The “you” candle comes as part of the more of you product duo kit. When we reviewed the scent, our tester summed it up perfectly: “The notes of Glossier you are a subject of debate on perfume forums – some get florals, powder and musk, others say they get ‘pencil shavings’ (no, really), rubber and even, according to one reviewer, cardboard,” they said. “For us, it falls somewhere in the middle – on our skin, it’s a really clean, warm neutral that lingers all day, but doesn’t overpower, and boasts a subtle woodiness to boot.”

So how does this magical skin-adjusting formula work in candle form? The scent has top notes of pink pepper and iris mixed with musky yet sweet base notes of ambrette and ambrox, which makes sense when looking at the pencil shavings comments. And the non-paraffin, soy-and-coconut wax blend candle claims to fill your room with the aroma for up to 27 hours.

Both the perfume and candle are vegan, and all of the packaging, from the box to the glass jars, is designed to be re-used to store pens, make-up, flowers or whatever else your heart desires. Pro candle-burning tip: be sure to let the whole surface of the candle melt before blowing it out for the first time if you want to have an even burn without one annoying hole in the middle.

The set is limited edition, but Glossier has informed fans that you’ll be able to buy the candle separately later this year. Of course, we’ll keep you in the know.
