Are those the maker's note tiers?

No. The maker publishes these notes as a flat list without a top, middle and base. The grouping shown here is ours, arranged to make the accord readable, and it should not be read as the maker's own structure.

What makes a candle smell fizzy?

Aldehydes and sharp citrus at the top, which read as effervescence rather than as any particular drink. When a dupe drops them the accord immediately becomes a plain fruit scent.

[ Not shown ] is a figure we hold and are withholding. Not observed is one nobody here has recorded. Hover or focus either for the reason.

Burn hours are as stated by each maker, never measured by us. Where a shop publishes a different figure we record both and say so. “Not observed” means nobody here has ever recorded a price for that row. “Not shown” means we hold one and are withholding it, because its source page or its pricing basis was never recorded, and a sale price set against a list price produces a wrong answer from correct arithmetic. The reasons per row: Bath & Body Works Champagne Toast — Price not observed; Sweet Grapefruit — Price not shown — basis not established; Love Potion — Price not shown — basis not established; Sunday Morning — Price not shown — basis not established.

The matches

How close each one gets

Sweet Grapefruit
P.F. Candle Co
Pink grapefruit and peach over yuzu, orange and mandarin. Carries the fruit and none of the fizz, so it reads rounder.
Where to buy
Love Potion
Brooklyn Candle Studio
Mandarin over lavender and jasmine. The bright citrus top with florals instead of berries underneath.
Where to buy
Sunday Morning
Brooklyn Candle Studio
Pear and bergamot on amber woods. Orchard fruit rather than berry, and warmer at the base than the original.
