Looking for Summer Candle "Deep Cuts"

Looking for Summer Candle "Deep Cuts"

These are gorgeous summer candles that I got from browsing this sub's old posts. Can't thank you all enough for detailed reviews that didn't disappoint!

From left to right, Absinthe by Carrière Frères (forgotten herb garden, color green in a scent), Freedom of the Horse by Glasshouse (countryside afternoon, field flowers and honey bees, warm leather), and Tomb of the Eagles by D.S. & Durga (cooling sea breeze, clover, and old stones). All heavenly.

I need more *summer recs* that aren't the usual suspects (not Diptyque -- I have 45 scents from their catalogue and I definitely don't need more -- and not Trudon)! Something complex or different, scents like poetry books, your sleeper hits or the hidden gems.

Diptyque Hiver

I decided to get organized and catalogue my candles and I left this 2014 baby sitting on my desk for over an hour. Came back home and the cold throw had taken over the room and even drifted up into the staircase. Those old Diptyques don't play around!

As I couldn't find any reviews, Hiver smells literally like winter. Cold air and snow, iris and musk, candied chestnuts, wood smoke, cashmere. It's a sophisticated smokey musk rather than a gourmand. And such a pretty vessel.
