Candle Profile

Drop #: 08
Wax Type: Half-melted soy blend that smells like campus carpet
Burn Time: Long enough to pretend you’re listening before your first nap (approx. 36 hours)
Mood: Groggy, fluorescent, and academically questionable

Scent Notes

Top Notes: Lukewarm instant coffee and highlighter ink
Heart Notes: Hoodie musk, crumpled lecture notes, and the faint panic of forgotten homework
Base Notes: Overhead projector dust and the smell of “attendance is 10% of your grade”

Vibe Check

Lighting this candle feels like dragging yourself across campus only to realise the slides were uploaded last night. It’s exhausting, slightly pointless, but somehow still character-building.

Placement Guide

Best lit: On your nightstand when you’re pretending you’ll wake up early, beside your laptop logged into Zoom, or in the lecture hall seat you always swear will be your last.

Reminds You Of

That classmate who shows up once a fortnight, still somehow aces the exam, and makes you question your life choices.

Don’t just light it. Live it. Another Fume Candle awaits.
