A candle that smells like Harry Styles sells out in the US, but you can buy the upgrade in the UK
No, really. We are not making this up! 🙈
No, you read that right, a candle that reportedly smells like former One Direction singer Harry Styles has sold out in Target in the US, much to the devastation of countless hopeful Harry fans.
The own-brand Target candle (part of their Threshold line) costs $6.99, and boasts a scent they label as 'cashmere vanilla', also combining 'notes of tonka bean and cedarwood'.
It was quickly likened to the Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille Cologne, £164, that Harry Styles reportedly wears, and there soon ensued a flurry of eager fans ready to buy it up.
The Target candle shelves were soon bare of the supposedly Harry scented candle. Whilst the renowned US chain store is reportedly on the move to manufacture more - the fans want what the fans want! - UK shoppers will unfortunately remain unable to purchase the in demand US buy.
Never fear though, if you're really committed, or simply love the sound of the scent, Harry Styles or no Harry Styles, the OG Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille line is entirely shoppable, and the options don't begin and end with a candle.
The beautiful scent blends tobacco blossom, tonka bean, vanilla, cocoa and sweet wood sap in an at once sweet, spicy and oriental scent that's inspired by English heritage and the private gentlemen's clubs of London.
Smell it once and you'll be able to recognise it anywhere. It's easy to see why it's a favourite of Harry's.
