Candles that smell like Thymes Frasier Fir

Frasier Fir is a green, sap-forward conifer that smells like a cut tree rather than pine cleaner, and it dominates American holiday gifting on that difference alone.

[ 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: Thymes Frasier Fir — Price not shown — source not recorded; Pinon — Price not shown — basis not established; Catskills — Price not shown — basis not established; Santal — Price not shown — basis not established.

How close each one gets

  • Pinon

    P.F. Candle Co

    Pine and fir balsam over amber and black pepper. Sweeter than the original, with vanilla and cinnamon where Frasier Fir stays sappy.

    Where to buy

  • Catskills

    Brooklyn Candle Studio

    Fir balsam, cypress, pine and juniper on cedar and sandalwood. The closest verified conifer, and it keeps the needle sharp.

    Where to buy

  • Santal

    Brooklyn Candle Studio

    Hinoki cypress and cedar over sandalwood. Woodier than the original and much less green, for a quieter winter room.

Questions

What people ask about this scent

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.
Which Frasier Fir is priced here?
The 6.5 oz poured candle, at the price shown on the maker's own page on the date given. Thymes sells Frasier Fir across a large range of vessels and sizes with different stated burns, so the figures here describe that one only.
