What does it smell like? Grassy greens and cucumbers.
Pros: Smells great, excellent throwing power, even when not burning.
Cons: It's a paraffin candle and I'd prefer soy-based candles (petroleum free).Where can I buy it? $9 for an 8 oz travel tin at ScentsandSprays.com
The Bottom Line: I've got the pillar, votive and travel candle in this scent and kept the travel candle at work on my desk. Though I never burnt it, I constantly found myself wondering where that fantastic green fragrance was coming from, only to realize that it was the Illume Cucumber travel candle! For $9, I think it's totally worth it!

Know any other great candles with fresh green notes?

Mmmmm, sounds great! Oliviers & Co, also known as O&Co, a French company selling finest olive oils and anything else in connection with olives, makes a wonderful olive oil & basil candle. Comes in a cute terracotta pot, smells spicy-green (just like basil) and burns down to the very last bit. No enormous leftovers of scented wax (or whatever) here! (unlike some candles I could think of). They also have one with tomato leaves which is next on my to try list.... www.oliviers-co.com (not affiliated etc. Just a fan - you should try their olive oils!)
Dinazad - Oliviers & Co sounds great...checking out their website now...
