2. The Scent Profile – What Does It Smell Like?

We carefully curated a unique fragrance blend that mimics the most recognizable elements of Nasi Lemak:

  • Pandan Jasmine Rice: The comforting scent of rich coconut milk, paired with the fresh green aroma of pandan leaves, forms the heart of this candle. This base note creates a creamy, tropical sweetness that lingers in the air.
  • Fresh Cucumber: A hint of freshness is blended in to replicate the essence of balance in the Nasi Lemak—crisp, dewy, and refreshingly green, without overpowering the other scents. 
  • Toasted Peanuts: To complete the scent, we infused light nutty, and umami notes, reminiscent of the crunchy anchovies and roasted peanuts that accompany every Nasi Lemak dish.

This candle is designed for comfort and nostalgia, giving you an immersive scent experience that will make you feel as though you’re about to dig into a delicious plate of Nasi Lemak.
