I was bummed when my original Santa never sent my smells gift, I had been looking forward to this exchange the most from the available exchanges. Thankfully /u/displacerkitty saved the day by being my rematch santa.

In my notes, I wrote that I didn't have a specific preference on what I wanted, I just prefer manly smells (like sandalwood, teakwood, tobacco, campfire, etc) and boy oh boy did DK deliver!

When I opened the package I received a lovely note from DK apologizing for sending the present so late (DK became my rematch santa 2 days ago). You are not late at all, and I greatly appreciate you being a rematcher!

Next, I noticed the 50 pack of sandalwood backflow incense cones. I love love love backflow cones, if you've never seen what they do before, I've included a short video with my post, needless to say they defy gravity and they are awesome to watch. Sandalwood is definitely in the manly smell category and now my room smells like a bonfire - it's wonderful!

On top of the incense, DisplacerKitty was also nice enough to send a soy wax candle called belvedere from a company called Plaid Stallion Candle Co. As the company explains on their website "The candle for the man's man! Belvedere, the candle that will put hair on your chest. It's luscious blends of musky leather and wood pays tribute to the chiseled man. While the rich, accents of violet, vanilla, and amber soften his edges." I think I may have a new favorite smelling candle! You did such a good job with this one DK!!! I can't thank you enough I am so happy with it!

Time to relax, unwind, take a breather and just enjoy the wonderful, manly smells!
