Sci-Fi Scented Candles

This Star Wars-Themed Soy Wax Candle is Designed to Smell Like Tatooine

— November 28, 2015 — Pop Culture
This soy wax candle is perfect if you feel like you need a calming moment before going to see the new Star Wars film. The movie-inspired scented candle is supposed to smell like Tatooine -- the harsh and lawless desert location featured in the sci-fi franchise that is home to Anakin and Luke Skywalker. Available from Anthology Candles on Etsy, The Force Awakens candle is even naturally colored to resemble the Hutt gangster-ruled world with two suns.

The Tatooine soy wax candle is supposed to reflect "the arid environment perfectly and features the slightly sweet scent of golden sand and dry air." The clean and masculine scent will certainly appeal to Star Wars fans and also makes an excellent holiday gift.
