Yes, this is ridiculous...

Final Fantasy VII candles. Speculations on what they smell like?

Sephiroth: creaking black leather, the sharp tang of cold steel, and underneath it all, the roiling scent of insanity.

I'd buy that!

You laugh, and yet I am still kicking myself for not buying the Saiyuki cream perfumes when they were still available! ;)

I do laugh ... and it's reawakening my desire to buy a bunch of essential oils and blend my own perfumes. I DO NOT NEED ANOTHER EXPENSIVE HOOBY

...on the other hand, if I sold them at conventions...

...suitably labeled as "Silver-Haired Swordsman" and the like to circumvent copyright and trademarks...

_{DO EEEET you know you want to!}

I haven't seen anyone at the conventions I attend selling perfume in the AA...aaaaaah must wait until I see my credit card bill after England and Wales! And until I get a couple more bag patterns done!

I had the exact same question when I saw those! Consensus on my Twitter feed seems to be some kind of ash or soot for Sephiroth, with the ~*poetic tang*~ of a single black angel feather.

Oooh, nice! XD

I'd guess the Cloud candle would smell like hair gel. :|

CLOUD STRIFE: The self-absorption of opium poppy, the immaturity of citrus, and lightly dusted over the top, the chemical tang of hair gel.

That's kind of awesome. I bet someone in my FF7 fannish circles will pick them up; I'm hoping so, at least, because I'm totally curious what they do smell like!

Oh, Squeenix, keep milking that property! It produces hilarious awesome.

I bought Saiyuki candles, because the "candle holders" they came in were pretty obviously shot glasses. I now have a nice set of four shot glasses. :)
