Replica By The Fireplace Candle - Świeca zapachowa

100% worth it

As soon as you open the box, you can literally smell the candle. I have a next to my nightstand, and I literally can smell it without it being lit up. It smells exactly like the perfume. I am obsessed with this smell.

Literally smells like sitting by the fireplace

This review is a long time coming. I have a few of these Maison Margiela Replica By The Fireplace candles - the first I received as part of a gratis package in December, 2024, and I have repurchased the candle a few times since, the most recent of which was spring 2025.  TL;DR: I really enjoy smoky, fireplace scents but am pretty picky about them - some are too intense and smoky; others not intensely smoky enough. While the perfume version of By the Fireplace is too much for me, this candle hits all the right notes, and literally gives you that war, comfy and cozy feeling of sitting by the fireplace. WHAT I LIKE: * Scent: Warm, comfy & cozy fireplace feel - the slightly sweet, woodsy and smokey notes all work together beautifully and really give the feel of being in front of a fireplace * The candle version of this scent is more toned down than the fragrance which was too heavy for me AREA(S) FOR IMPROVEMENT: * Would add to the fireplace feel if this candle had a wood wick, the ones that crackle when lit * Would love to see it as a refillable version FYI / OTHER THOUGHTS: * The scent on the candle is softer, less intense than the perfume * It's a lovely scent year round but it makes a really great gift for the winter season / holidays  * Highly recommend BUY, BUY, BUY 🛍️ or BYE-BYE 👋🏼?: * BUY - This candle has been and will continue to be a repeated repurchase for me 🛍️

Aesthetically pleasing and an amazing realistic sc

This candle was gifted to me by a friend and I absolutely adore it! The scent is strong but not overpowering. It burns evenly and is just really beautiful!

So so good!

I wish this candle wasn’t so expensive but man it burns so well and evenly. The scent smells amazing

Smoky Warm Candle

I love this smoky & warm candle. It smells exactly like the matching fragrance. To me it smells like how’s it’s described— it’s like you’re by the best smelling fireplace with spicy and sweet notes of vanilla. It makes my home smell beautiful and can be used year round. It is not the largest candle for the price, but it is a luxurious candle and worth it for me.

A delicious indulgence

Expensive but so cozy; I love this candle. Makes a great gift

Disappointed

Very faint scent, burnt very quickly, very expensive for size/time

Perfect Christmas gift

I bought this candle as a Christmas gift my daughter. She loves this candle and is a fan of Replica products. The scent from this candle is amazing. The candle is a beautiful addition to any room in your home. I recommend this candle.

Exact to the Fragrance

This candle smells exactly like the fragrance. I gifted it to my husband for Christmas since he’s obsessed with the fragrance. It’s his signature scent. The vanilla, clove and chestnut create the perfect warm, cozy fireplace vibe. He plans to take this one to his job and fill his office with the scent. It burns for hours and there’s no soot. Just the perfectly balanced aroma that fills the room. I’ll absolutely replace this one once it’s gone. My husband doesn’t get excited about much and this By the Fireplace fragrance and candle make him to be happy.

A must have

Love the scent and so glad it’s made in this size. Fills the entire downstairs area

Perfect comforting candle for winter!

This candle has become a little tradition for us! Every winter season I repurchase it. The scent is comforting. It’s warm and sensual. It smells like you are burning some marshmallows that have been previously dipped into a delicious liquor!

Not what I expected nor as presented.

A big buildup on the Today Show, but I couldn't discern "fireplace' in the scent. I was looking for a smoky candle but this is just too strong and perfumey.
