There’s nothing like a scented candle to make everyone around you wonder how many cats your really have. It seems like autumn is the time for scented candles, with every company pumping out their seasonal flavors (Pumpkin Butthole, Dead Leaf Breeze) and preparing for the holiday season (Peppermint Dick, Burning Church). But what if this year, you could make your house smell a little more like, we don’t know…Lemmy? Thankfully, in honor of the 40th anniversary of their classic album Ace of Spades, Motörhead have announced an obvious product tie-in: scented candles.
Motörhead have teamed up with the Evoke Candle Co. to create an Ace of Spades tribute candle. Emblazoned with the band’s spade logo and the line “Born to Lose, Live to Win,” the candle reportedly smells like whiskey, seemingly in the hopes of reminding users of the aroma that comes when Lemmy sidles up next to you at The Rainbow.
Evoke Candle Co. is pleased to announce our licensed Official Motörhead “Ace of Spades” candle, in time to help…
