For when the energy in the room needs a little shake-up.

The Hot Mess candle by Anecdote hits with cardamom, peppercorn, and pinkberry seeds right away — warm, spicy, and a little unexpected. Bergamot and heliotrope soften things out, then ripened rhubarb pulls it all together with a tart, bright finish. Light it when you want the room to feel alive. Coconut-soy wax, cotton core wicks, phthalate-free.
