I’m a huge candle guy. It’s my guilty pleasure when I’m out at a store like Target or Bed, Bath, & Beyond. Candles are a staple in every room of my apartment and I change them as seasons come and go or when I need to set a particular mood.
Now, I’m not one hundred percent sure what kind of vibe I’d be trying to give off if I lit a candle that smells like a Macbook fresh out of the box, but I’m confident I can find a place for it on my candle roster. Hand-poured? Check. Soy? Yup. Pretentious? Absolutely. This thing passes my candle checklist with flying colors.
Per The Independent:
An Apple accessories company, Twelve South, has created a candle that captures the specific scent of a newly-opened Apple product. It sold for $24 and offered free shipping inside the US. The candles are “hand poured” in Charleston, South Carolina, where Twelve South is based, and are made entirely out of soy wax.
“The New Mac Soy Candle” lasts for up to 55 hours, however, it looks like we’re going to have to wait for a new shipment because Twelve South sold out after two hours of being on sale. What does a new Apple product smell like, you ask? I’d say it’s something like a very organic plastic, but that wouldn’t be correct. You only know that smell if you’re an Apple user. Suffice it to say it does smell good opening up a new product from Apple. And as much as I hate to admit this, I’ve bought candles for way more than twenty-four dollars. A $24 dollar candle from Jo Malone is basically unheard of so this thing is actually a steal. Twelve South said they literally bottled the scent that one smells upon opening a Macbook from its box, so I’ve got to believe them. I’ll be on the lookout for announcements on a re-stock. .

At this point I have to ask, are you just fucking with us?
I solely click on Duda’s articles now to see him get roasted in the comments section.
Duda strikes again. Fool me once into reading a post, shame on you. Fool me 38 times, shame on me.
You should patent a Duda-scented candle. Everyone needs a candle that smells like narcissistic self-delusion.
I’d buy the shit out of that candle
**sweaty wool and deteriorating Birkenstocks
I found this article through the PGP twitter, and as I clicked on it, I said to myself, “This was almost definitely written by Duda.” I was not wrong.
“I’m a huge candle guy”
I’m dying to know… Just how many ladies have touched your penis because of that line?
None that he didn’t pay for
I have a hard time believing that Grandex pays him enough to afford that
Let’s be real, they end up refunding him the money and leave before it’s even over
I genuinely enjoy candles as well, doesn’t hurt that girls think having a candle lit when they come over is romantic.
Having candles is respectable, dropping 24 bucks on one to make your place smell like you just got a new iphone is not.
Agreed, I’m more of a “take a sec at the grocery store and if any smell good, grab it” kinda candle connoisseur.
“Im a huge candle guy” is the least surprising thing that I’ve seen today.
I respectfully disagree that volcano Capri blue candles are better.
Second that. Also highly recommend Illume candles, they all smell good AF.
Y’all are missing out if you’re not burning White Barn Candles. Far superior to every candle I’ve ever used. You can get them from a White Barn Candle store or if you live in the middle of nowhere Texas like me, you can get them at Bath & Body Works.
