There I said it. My ex girlfriend trained me to keep my candle opinions to myself. But fuck it, she's not here.
​
Vanilla is a soft, warm, and fuzzy smell. It belongs in the bedroom or the living room.
​
Breathing in vanilla is like receiving a warm and intimate hug from the air - warm and intimate hugs are great in the bedroom and living room, a little bit weird on the toilet.
​
Bathrooms should be cold and bright and sterile, like a lemon or a hibiscus.
​
Also, women may not have this problem, but men make a lot of odours in the bathroom. Vanilla smell does not mask odours; it mingles with them in some kind of ungodly, sickly abomination of a smell. It is the equivalent of applying Lynx Africa to an armpit with already bad BO. Doesn't fix, just makes it worse.
​
People who keep cans of vanilla scented airwick in their bathroom just baffle me, you might as well slip in a wall of carpet samples.
