Drawing on the richness of Tahitian vanilla, which is more floral than its South American counterpart, this fruity candle allows you to take a mental vacation in a nonobvious way (imagine sipping a tropical rum drink, as opposed to being slathered in coconut sunscreen). Handmade in Portland, Oregon, its fuchsia soy wax provides a decorative jolt of color, and promises 50 hours of burn time (although it seemed to melt quicker than other votives we tried).
