Pasta Water is a 7 oz scented candle made with Jupiter, whose pasta is genuinely incredible. It is built on the faint umami depth that steams out of their pots. The scent opens on saline water, salted and just off the boil. The heart brings semolina wheat, starchy and warm. The base holds a chef's secret, the part nobody names. Subtle, savory and strange in the best way, it belongs in a kitchen while you cook or right after you eat. A collaboration candle from the New York fragrance house D.S. & Durga. Scent family: gourmand savory. Unisex home fragrance. Wears well year round. Trim the wick before each burn for an even wax pool. An unusual gift for a serious home cook, and one of the few candles built on a savory accord rather than a dessert.
