Macho Scented Candles (UPDATE)

Santa's Beard Candle Radiates All That Is Caught in the Jolly Beard

— December 3, 2012 — Lifestyle
Scented candles are often perceived as a feminine accent but Man Cans, a company that specializes in whipping together masculine flavors with candles, has introduced the manliest scent of all time, the Santa's Beard candle.

Man Cans omit the typical floral, herbal and fruity scents and injects some of the craziest aromas into the burning wax like Hot Cocoa, Gunpowder, Pizza and Coffee. This Christmas, the Santa's Beard candle has topped them all with the delicious smell of cookie crumbs from snacking worldwide and a hint of warm milk he probably dunked them in. Don't forget about the hint of sawdust through because, after all, he does have to work all the other 364 days in order to get all those presents ready for the kids.
