Travis Scott & Cactus Jack for Byredo Space Rage Candle Review | Video
I decided to treat myself for Christmas with Travis Scott's Cactus Jack for Byredo Space Rage candle that was surprised dropped (and quickly sold out) a few weeks back. Keep on reading for my quick review, or check out the video below for a more detailed one!
Part of the candle's allure was the mysterious fragrance notesâ none of which are actual decipherable scents! But, basically...it's supposed to smell like space.

Heart: Starlight, The scent of Supernova
Base: Atmospheric vapour, Dark nebulae
I was hoping for a more masculine scent, but it's more of a fruity/fresh/woody scent to me. Some notes I've heard thrown around include grapefruit, plum, bergamot, and figâ which to me could all make sense, but I'm not a fragrance expert so it's hard to decipher with nothing to go off of.

As far as the burn goes, I was fairly disappointed. The first burn didn't get all the way to the edges after 5 hours, so I decided to tent it with foil to get the rest to melt. It's been burning alright since, but this seems to be a common problem with Byredo candles, and this is only my first one!
I asked their customer service what the wax was, and they told me it's a blend of soy and synthetic waxes. It's funny to me how these expensive brands get away with using synthetic or paraffin waxes...still gonna buy them anyway though!
The scent throw with this is pretty mediumâ not too strong and not too soft. It's fragrant enough to fill a small/medium sized bedroom though!
Overall I'd give this candle a B-, the first burn really put a bad taste in my mouth, so while I'm glad to have this candle for the limited edition factor (and I'll definitely be reusing the glass as a cup!), I won't exactly be running to buy another Byredo candle unfortunately.
