So we all know the unmistakable smell of a blown out candle. But how many of you actually like it? I find it very exotic and vulgar, but at the same time pleasant and nostalgic e.g. "happy birthday!" I'd love to have it be the central characteristics of a perfume. But, how could I replicate this scent? It's chemical makeup is probably not as linear as it's tenacious one-note odour. Do any aroma chemicals or common place essential oils remind you of that "burnt wick on a candle" smell?
