Overall, a fantastic candle that encapsulates the smell of cotton wonderfully. Can absolutely freshen up a room, reminds me of freshly cleaned towels. Might be best for bathrooms and foyers, and perhaps small bedrooms. The only negative is that, in my opinion, it wasn't pungent enough. I think the application for a candle that's cotton/linen scented should be there to really freshen things up, so personally I just think it needs a biiiit more potency to the scent. That all being said, how it is now is still a great option for a smaller room/area that needs a clean & comforting scent, such as a bathroom or foyer.
