if you are not a fan of the traditional "cotton" or "fresh linen" scents, but want a fresh smelling scent, this is your candle. My husband loves the cotton-y type smells and I do not. This is a great compromise! It really reminds me of the beach with gently perfumed air. Its a very calming a relaxing scent. Its so fresh and comforting, we burn it all through out the year.
