Havana’s constant salsa rhythm moves you as you enjoy the sweet yet spicy mix of sugarcane and rum. Let the excitement of this adventurous Caribbean city envelope your senses.
I love the slightly sweet and exotic blend in the Tocca Havana candle. Again, I admire Tocca for creating a fragrance that isn’t feminine. This is a fun unisex scent. The sweetness of the sugar cane blends with rum to create an intoxicating and alluring fragrance. Tocca Havana is a scent I can enjoy year round – in the summer it’s fun and festive. In the winter is seductive and soothing. I enjoy this fragrance particularly late in the afternoon and evening when it’s time to wind-down and relax.
This time of year, when the weather is cool, the Tocca Havana candle pairs well with my favorite drink, Winter Rum. We found it at The London Bar in NYC, owned by my #1 idol, Chef Gordon Ramsey. It’s a blend of:
- Montecristo Rum
- Liquor 43
- Fresh squeezed orange juice
- Real Maple syrup
- Lime juice
- splash of Black Seal Rum on top
- I add a whole clove. Dave likes to top it off with a whole star anise.
The drink is very similar to the candle – a slightly sweet blend of sugar and rum. Yum!
Fragrance intensity: 3/5. Burn quality 3.5/5.
More about tocca havana candle
If you are enjoying tocca havana candle, a few simple habits help you get the most from it.
- Trim the wick to about a quarter of an inch before every burn so the flame stays steady and clean.
- On the first burn, let the wax melt all the way to the edges of the container to help prevent tunneling.
- Keep the candle away from drafts, fans and anything flammable, and never leave a burning candle unattended.
- Stop burning when about half an inch of wax is left in the container, and let it cool fully before relighting.

A quick scent guide
Start small when you try something new. A single candle, a sample or a small bottle lets you live with a scent before you commit to more.
Layering is a fun way to personalize a room. Pairing two scents that share a note, such as a citrus with a green leaf, can create something that feels like yours.
Scent is personal. A fragrance that feels cozy to one person can feel heavy to another, so use our notes as a starting point and trust your own nose.
Think about where the scent will live. Bright citrus and green notes tend to suit kitchens and bathrooms, while warm spice, vanilla and wood often suit living rooms and bedrooms.
