And a huge shoutout to friend of the pod, Dominique, for helping name our candle rating system. We will be reviewing candles based on our Triple Wick theory. This looks at the overall aesthetics (which includes the vessel, packaging, branding and unboxing experience), the quality (ingredients, throw, how well it burns, and scent complexity), and lastly the price point - is it affordable, mid tier or luxury - to determine how many wicks get awarded to each candle. So a candle that just has one thing going for it will have small wick energy, a candle that has two out of the three will have big wick energy and a candle with all three will be our elusive magnum. Thank you so much Dominique for helping us name this! Give Dominique a follow on instagram @dommdotcom.
