I’m sure they exist, but almost every scented candle I’ve ever smelled is quite strong. Smelling candles in a store is a matter of finding a smell that you like, not one that has a smell at all.
Lack of smell is a characteristic symptom of the coronavirus, including in otherwise a symptomatic people. The proportion of reviews (2->6%) pretty clearly tracks the increased caseload of the virus in the United States.
While you are technically correct, this phenomenon is almost certainly due to the virus.
- ghaff 6y agoI actually agree it's probably the most plausible explanation. I was mostly objecting to the no other explanation is even worth considering tone.
- zikzak 6y agoI agree. There are many people, like me, that barely have a sense of smell to begin with. I would never buy a scented candle for myself. But if I didn't really know that Scott myself, maybe I would suddenly decide to get one based on an article about covid and scented candles and then be disappointed. The reason I say this is I didn't really know how bad my sense of smell was until my son was born and I started dealing with various odours that I could handle easily and others found far stronger.
- LorenPechtel 6y agoYup--I'm sensitive to such smells and I avoid any part of a store that has scented candles, period. Just sitting on the shelf they bother me.
