My mom is not a difficult person to shop for. (But that’s mostly because she is grateful for anything you give her and loves a tchotchke or decorative soap.) That means, when there’s something she absolutely loves, you’ll know about it. She’ll politely hint at running low or requesting backfill for her stash any time an opportunity arises. And her most recent favorite thing (Oprah much?) is this Nest candle, specifically in the bamboo scent. She loves it so much, she’s asked for it for Christmas the past three years. Even better, it’s 25% off right now on Amazon for Black Friday. Try it out: It might just become your new obsession, too.

What We Love About the Nest Bamboo Candle

According to the site, the Bamboo candle features “A blend of white florals with an abundance of lush green notes and hints of sparkling citrus.” It’s clean, uplifting, and luxurious without being overpowering. It sits in the chic glass vessel that all Nest candles have, and looks so classic in any room. Plus, it has a burn time of 60 hours, so each one gets a substantial lifespan, even when you burn it as often as my mom burns hers.

What Nest Reviewers Are Saying

My favorite candle! Smells wonderful!” —Jennifer Landry

I used Nest products all over my house. I have Nest in my Pura, reed diffusers and candles. I am partial to Bamboo, but enjoy almost all their scents. I give Nest as gifts and love the beauty and packaging of this Brand. The candles last a long time and are worth the money. I am a Nest fan!” —Michelle

“You know when you just buy a candle and hope it smells good? Well, this one smells AMAZING. Makes me want to buy another one. Unfortunately, that’s the only description I have. This is the second candle I’ve gotten from this manufacturer and not disappointed yet.” —Denise
