Alchemist's Fire smells so mysterious and unique! It's one of my favorites, and I like to pair it with others, like Ghostly Castle, Forbidden Temple, Dragon Queen, and Boutique Hotel Library. I like it by itself, though, too. So good!

This scent alone wasn't my favorite but when combined with Forbidden Temple or Ghostly Castle, it adds a little sweet, earthy base. Unique and mysterious.

I was on the fence with this one. However, when I opened it, I was surprised by the richness of it! It's one of those masculine scents that makes you want to wash your clothes in it so you can smell it all day long.
Great for fall and winter!
Christine
I liked the scent in the package but wasn't sure how it would fit into the summer vibe I'm feeling. Not only do I love it, but it's so mysterious, which fits me perfectly. Would burn this all year round.

This scent is everything i could hope for and more. You put Amber with mahogany and made my heart sing. Please, more Amber and Mahogany scents! Maybe with blood orange
Margarita
This is one of my favorites. The vanilla is subtle and pairs well with the musky campfire notes. Great combination that makes any room smell lovely.
Mama T
This smells is so shuttle, yet enticing and mixes amazingly well with any other scent! One of my traditional staples for my home!

This is another winner from Spireside! Smelling it cold I was worried it would be too strong, but in the warmer it is perfect. The woody "masculine" scents blend beautifully with the warm sweet fragrances of coconut and vanilla. It is a very warm and inviting fragrance, a little reminiscent of some of my favorite men's colognes which I can sadly no longer enjoy because most colognes trigger migraines for me now. This fragrances doesn't do that. It's rich and complex and lives up to its name. I'm sitting here reading a fantasy novel and enjoying the fragrance. These fragrances truly bring something special to my home during these difficult times and make being stuck at home so much more pleasant. Another one to add to my subscription list!

I got this as a gift and it’s one of my favorites now. Longest lasting wax melt I’ve ever used. On day 4 and it’s still going strong.
Brandy
Relaxing, masculine, clean...tied for best scent with Ghostly Castle in my house.
Eric
First time inhaling this scent. And ooooooh yeah it's good! I usually do not like vanilla smells because they give me migraines and smell cheap and perfume-y. However, it seems as though whatever vanilla they use is of a better quality. This blend is well balanced with the sweet and woodsy smells. Some have described it as masculine, but the vanilla kinda balances that part out. Will definitely continue to burn this one!
Dina
Woodsy and complex. Earthy and dark without being too masculine. It is exactly what I was hoping for. Thank you, Spireside!
Rachael
My house smells absolutely amazing! I LOVE this scent.
Erin
Warm, sweet and masculine in a very subtle way. I almost sexy in a way. I immediately bought more the minute I smelled it. AND I bought the whipped soap. Can't express enough how much I love it
Matthew
This smell is amazing. After we got the wax melted, it was an immediate smell of vanilla, amber and mahogany! It felt like we could be standing in Nick Flamel’s lab as he was concocting his mixtures. This smell makes you want to hunt down the Philosopher’s Stone!

The first time I smelled this scent.....I couldn't stop. I wanted to fill every wax burner (I have several) with them but I didn't want to use them up so quickly until I get more. It is a clean, refreshing, feel good, I want to get my day started smell. I highly recommend!
Samantha
I love this scent on its own. Like I'm very tempted to just buy 100 and only burn this forever but I know that would drive friends and family nuts. Its floral not in a flowery way but in a warming, non grandmaie perfume way. It makes me think of a classy elven lady in an exquisitely decorated and pristine laboratory looking for the cure for sadness with a sip of a magic brew.
Its amazing mixed with Gothic library for writing, and I have multiple others on the way to try this with as well.
SO EXCITED FOR MY FIRST SPIRESIDE PURCHASE GOING SO WELL!
Amanda R
An absolutely amazing aroma! It fills my home with a gorgeous scent and I've been bragging about it since I got this. And my order arrived so quickly. I'm extremely pleased and will be ordering more for gifts.
Lindsay
I just received my first order of 3 different wax melts from Spireside, and this one had my attention immediately. It fills the space well and makes my whole apartment feel more homey. I almost feel like my heart knows the smell without my head being able to identify it. I’m impressed with how it manages to pull off sweet and musty/masculine notes at the same time. Would definitely recommend!
Hannah
It's a little bit musky and spicy, exactly the way I'd imagine an Alchemist's lab would smell.
Erin
I don't necessarily know how this smells so good, but it reminds me of masculinity, with a feminine touch. Like a well dressed man. LOL! The smell itself is a very clean, but rugged, scent and it couples perfectly with the notes of vanilla and cedarwood. If you are on the fence, get it. I guarantee you will not be disappointed in it's warmth!
Lauren McIntire
I don't know how to describe this scent, I wish it was also a cologne so my husband would smell like this all day! I will definitely be ordering this again, I never want this scent to leave my home.
Karen
So far this is my FAVORITE wax melt. I love this at night as I go to sleep. It relaxes my mind so much. The smell just amazes me. My daughter took my second one because she also loves it so I ordered another 2 along with a candle.
Emily
I didn’t know what to expect with this scent, but oh my gosh it’s perfect! I also bought Forbidden Temple to go along with it and it did not disappoint! Even on its own, it’s amazing! Something about it is just so cozy, even when being melted in my warmer during the hot Florida months!
Sophie
So far this is my favorite scent! It smells amazing!
Meagan
As soon as I opened the package I loved it. It's a wonderful balance of sweet and woodsy. Definitely worth a try, you will not regret it. All of Spireside's scents have been great but this one is my favorite.
Stephanie Lamberson
This scent is one of my favorites, next to enchanted library. It smells divine. Sweet and relaxing.
Stephanie Lamberson
It's smells so good! I've had the same wax melts burning for 4 days in a row, and it still smells wonderful. Very long lasting scent, but not overpowering. It brings you to a relaxing place.
Bree
This is one of my favorite scents of them all. It smells amazing with Forbidden temple or by itself! I do both often. It is so warm and inviting, slightly sweet, but very balanced with the woods and amber. It is perfect for curling up to read or watch a movie, and relaxing.
