I saw this on the Hobby Lobby website and was wondering if they carry it in-store. Reviews say they changed the formula and it doesn't smell as good as it used too.
My wife bought it a Hobby Lobby. It smells okay, not like the description old books and cherry pipes. When I burn it, I only burn it for a few minutes...too strong otherwise.

I just lit mine and have set next to me as I type. I can't walk away from it because the cat is fascinated with the flame. I don't enjoy the smell of burning hair.

I can't pinpoint the scent, not like the online description of old books and cherry. Old books usually smell musty. I'm interested in what others think of the scent.

I've seen "tobacco" scented candles quite a bit, actually. Not quite sure what tobacco they're supposed to smell like, but I like em.

There's a soap maker at one of the farmers markets I do who makes a Tobacco and Rum soap. It smells like neither, but good all the same. It's one of her best sellers, and while she made it to appeal to guys, she now sells it mostly to women.

So the candle has been burning for about 45 minutes....I cannot say it smells of cherry pipe tobacco and old books...I can't quite figure out what it smells like but there is definitely hints of patchouli.
Same here, can't figure it out. Definitely not old books and cherry tobacco. It's okay. I wouldn't replace it with the same.

My Pappy's Pipe made by Milkhouse Candle Company arrived yesterday. This candle has a very pleasant scent. I like that it's made in the USA (Iowa). Who knows? Maybe @BROBS makes these candles.

From their website:
The Milkhouse Candles Farmhouse Collection uses all natural wax. The adorable mason jar candle has 13 ounces of 100% paraffin-free all natural wax and provides 70+ hours of burn time. A lead-free cotton wick is used to fill your home with fragrance and give you the best clean, soot-free candle experience possible.

MADE IN THE USA - The Milkhouse Candle Company hails from a small Iowa town, and we stay close to our roots by using soy wax made with soybeans grown in America's heartland. Paraffin-free, Paraben-Free, Phthalate-Free, never tested on animals.
