A go to candle. This scent is right up there with Enchanted Library and Ghostly Castle. Unique scent and hard to describe. Love this!
Beth
Amazing fresh light scent. Not too strong just right. One if my favorites!

I did not expect to love this scent so much, but it’s really warm and pleasant. I’ve paired it with Voodoo Bayou and loved it—had to immediately go watch some of my favorite scary movies to match the vibes! But I also love it on its own, so there’s no going wrong. I love the little smoky and spicy notes. It also really manages to fill a room but isn’t overbearing, which I truly appreciate about all the spireside candles I’ve tried!

Of the 8 fragrances I've tried so far, this is my favorite. As an aging hippie, I love any use of Patchouli. I didn't realize it was going to be vaulted so I am SO glad I subscribed to it.

My dear friend gave me a care package and this was in it. When I initially opened it, I accidently brushed my nose against the wax. And from that tiny encounter, I got hours of this beautiful, balmy richness, filling my nose.
There was something a bit reminiscent about this. It took me like a while to connect the dots. It may have been a bit unorthodox, but I ended up scraping a little of the candle and rubbed it into my wrists. The soy wax is so soft and buttery. I went about my business and kept getting these pleasant wafts dancing around me. I have to say that this is bringing back old memories of, Donna Karan's Black Cashmere. While they definitely aren't the same, they both have notes in common. Smokey, spicy, a slight leathery touch, resinous, aromatic and masculine. It ends in a soapy clean finish that just smells so nice. This also reminds me of certain fine soaps from India, and the middle east. Think Jannatul Firdaus.
Hey Spireside! If you ever decide to create any fragrance oils, or balms, hit up yr gurl!♀️ I've never worn candle wax before, and I know I probably shouldn't... But we've all gotta go someday. Might as well smell like class in the casket.

This candle smells so powerful. It’s got an amazing throw. One of my all time favorites.

I've ordered twice from these guys and both times I was over impressed with the scents. There's no way to describe these in detail but I will 100% say that they are worth the money. People come over asking what smells so good but I keep it my secret lol

My absolute favorite scent from spireside. I think I might die if they ever got rid of this one. Fills a room, has a perfectly strong (but not overwhelming) mystical scent. I love it!
Kaylee Wolf
Smells like the Medieval Fair and since we couldn't go this year this candle made us so happy!!!!
It reminds me of crystal balls and Gypsies and smoke and music and all the loveliness of dragons!
I dont always like patchouli so I was a bit skeptical but rest assured it is masterfully blended! We love it!
Sue
Finally, a candle that smells of incense and serious impishness- not a word? It is now. This candle is my fav, so good! It fills the room, burns well and makes me want to reread all my old horror comic books from the 70’s. I love the smell so much, I put it in my monthly subscription! Just buy it already!
Elizabeth
This candle has a great rich scent. I light this one when I want my house to smell sexy and powerful.
sydney
i have to say this candle is one of the few things in life that is strong enough to calm my anxiety. i absolutely am in love with this! spireside, i beg of you, please make this into a whipped soap!
Andrea
I was very curious and pleasantly surprised with Dragon Queen. I love the patchouli and powdery scent.. these candles definitely burn in a way where you are experiencing different types of scents as it wafts through your home.
Susie
This smells of incense and adventure. An intriguing scent to be sure. These unique fragrances are totally unique from any other candles I’ve owned. Great options on different scent profiles.
Brandon
Burning this candle will pull you into a whole new realm, the Dragon Queen's Realm. As you wander her labyrinth layers immediately you will pick up that sweet yet musty smell of incense. The notes of Smoke and Patchouli will have you straighten your back as she descends before you, her massive wings kicking up the sweet earth tones of the sweet vines and thorny briars that line the walls of her lair. This is such an enchanting beautiful and unique scent that is PERFECT for any Patchouli lovers. If you are looking for a scent that is dark and mysterious, with a touch of comfort then Dragon Queen is perfect for you!
Sydney Cameron
this is my third or fourth time ordering this candle scent. dragon queen has such a unique and intoxicating smell to it. i burn the candle when i’m studying, when i’m watching tv, or when i need to relax. absolutely perfect, and it always fills me with a sense of calm. my favorite one! please never retire this one like the other dragon scent!

This candle has a distinctive, incense-like scent with an under layer of sweetness. Patchouli is one of my favorite scents of all time. The smoke-scent compliments it well for that full, Dragon's Blood smell. However, a sweet, vanilla-like scent is also present and keeps the candle from being too earthy overall and lends it a slightly mysterious, seductive feel. It fills the room without being overpowering and each element of the scent remains distinctive and vibrant while burning.
Chris
Sophisticated, subtle and has a nice throw through the room!
Monica
Oh my god. This candle. There are not enough words to express how much I love this scent. I got it in my sample pack and I will be ordering a candle! I was worried that thé patchouli scent would be overpowering, but it totally isn’t. It is amazing. A wonderful balance of earthy, spicy, and sweet. I’ve never smelled anything like it!
Sarah N
Wow! This is the best candle I have ever burned! The scent fills the entire room and stays with layers of dimension while burning. I love patchouli, and smoke, however to me this just smells magical and powerful. I will definitely purchase again. Thank you Spireside for creating such lovely candles! ❤️
Corri
This candle is great for a mellow evening. Warm, dark, and soothing. Not too strong. This one is easy to fall in love with.
Sarah N
I LOVE this candle! It shipped super fast as well and was well and securely packaged. This scent has so many dimensions and beautifully fills an entire large room. I am a candle maniac but by far this is the greatest quality I’ve come across! I will definitely continue to try new candles!
Cathy
I love this smell! It smells like patchouli and smoke.The smoke smell is not to strong, it’s just right. A very well balanced smell that makes your house smell powerful and mysterious!
Alia
I absolutely LOVE this scent! I love the smokiness of it and the scent fills the whole house. It is not too masculine and it does not smell of cologne... more like campfire and incense.
Angela Liu
I absolutely LOVE this scent! I'm a big patchouli fan and this candle is perfect! I purchased the large one after falling in love with the sample size. It has lasted a super long time and gives off more scent than any other candle I have ever had! I hope they continue making it!
Cathy
A purchased a sample pack, and out of the ones I purchased, this was definitely my favorite.It smells like smoke , but not in a bad way. It’s very intoxicating! I love patchouli and that’s one of the scents so maybe that’s why I like it so much. It smells mysterious, which I love. Amazing!
Sherri L Dillard
Love patchouli, and this smoky patchouli is marvelous! Can't wait to try it with Dragon Rider accompaniment !
Natasha
This candle is the best candle I've purchased from Spireside!! The name is awesome, the wax pools well, the wicks burn great, and the throw is outstanding for me. I can smell the candle iny small office or large bathroom when taking a bath. The scents blend do well together that I'm obsessed with this candle! You won't be disappointed. Needless to say I am going to be repurchasing this candle. Please never vault this scent!
Rachelle Miderski
I wasn't sure I would love this smell, but it was clearly one of Spiresides best sellers based on the number of reviews so I decided to add it to a sample pack. This quickly became my favorite scent of all time, I had no idea what I was missing. The tealight scented my entire bedroom in minutes. It smells just liked I walked into a renaissance fair! I have already ordered the large candle on subscription and am making due with sniffing my empty tealight until my next order arrives. Hopefully soon!
Jane
Wow! Not overwhelming, or intrusive, yet you can smell it, and it’s amazing. Definitely will buy again.
Dana
To be quite honest, I ordered this candle simply for the name, I LOVE all things dragons. So, when my sample came, I was a little put off by the stronger, almost perfume-y scent upon first sniff. As I have learned making my way through both sample packs that I had ordered, fear not! As with a couple other flavors, the burning candle gives off a much more subtle scent than just sniffing the wax. I have to say that I don't think Spireside can make a bad scent! I have always loved incense, but it can be overwhelming in a small room, Dragon Queen is not type. She's a very pleasant guest and quite amiable, relaxing, but noble. Invite her in.
Gina
I’m typically not a fan of incense but wanted to give this a chance. I am SO glad I did! It’s got a great “Smokey” scent which isn’t at all overbearing but fills the entire room and then some. It’s rather mystical and relaxing, the kind of scent I want going on a chilly gray day.
Also, the sample candle lasted for several burns and kept the same amount of throw throughout.
I’ll be adding this to my re-order list!
Amanda
I ordered this in a sample pack, and it’s one of my favorites!
Sherri L Dillard
Love this scent... surprisingly subtle, yet fills the room with delicate incense.
Sandra
Fabulous!!! Will purchase again!
Adriana
Love the scent of this candle!
Beth Thomas
I love the combination of scents that are packed into Dragon Queen. It isn't overwhelming but adds a nice fragrance to the room. This is now my go to candle!
Lauren S
This scent smells amazing. I love incense and to have a candle that smells like it without the smoke is a plus!
Ashley Kreyling
Really enjoying this one! It’s dark, smoky, but also sweet somehow. Definitely a note of mystery here. Will absolutely repurchase Dragon Queen!
Jessa
This was the first candle I purchased from this company on blind Faith, and it's one of the best choices I've ever made. The smell itself reminds me of a sandalwood incense without that overly Smokey / fire undertone work just a dash of saltyness that reminds me of the ocean. It smelled like every magic/new age shop I've ever been in. The candle itself is also strong which is nice because it lasts a little bit longer than a cheap candle. I cannot wait to try the other scents in the sample pack.
Cheyenne
I absolutely LOVE this scent. It's strong without being overwhelming, and it smells.. powerful. The best way I can describe it is if Ghostly Castle and Pirates Revenge got together and burned a little incense - that's this candle. If you like either of those scents, this scent is FOR you.
Kelly
This candle is great, I loved it more than I thought. It has a sort of incense smell to it that is so pleasant it just fills the whole house up. I love it and it is great for getting rid of other odors!
Jessica
What a great, unique scent. Quality as always.
Joe Ottomano
We burned through this candle so quickly because we loved how it smelled so much. Toward the end, I started rationing it to make it last longer. Just the right balance of smoke and patchouli to make it smell great without being overwhelming. Will definitely buy again.
Bri
What an amazing unique scent! I am truly blown away by the creativity and quality of these candles
Cullen
If you're a fan of Nag Champa or Dragon's Blood incense, but not a fan of smoke-filled room, this candle is for you. I was worried it would be too heavy from a cold smell, but it smoothes out and lightens up a bit upon burning. Leaves a faint, sweet trace of exotic incense behind in the room after extinguishing. This one is definitely in my top favorites!
Holly
Once again a candle that smells amazing. My kids even love this one!!
Simone
This is my 4th Spireside candle. I have pirates revenge, viking voyage, and Sherwood Forest and love them all but this candle... WOW! I bought it because I have a dragon Tattoo as my wedding ring and I couldn't be happier. This smell is AMAZING. Instantly shot up to my number one favorite. I never want to blow it out!!!
