A candle and a bowl of potpourri solve the same problem — making a room smell good — but they don't actually compete, since they're suited to different situations.
Candles Are an Event
A soy candle needs to be lit and watched, which makes it better suited to an evening you're actually sitting in the room for.
Potpourri Is Ambient
A bag of Autumn Blend Potpourri keeps working in the background all day, with no flame to blow out before you leave the house.
Refresher Oil Is the Bridge
When a bowl of potpourri starts to fade, a drop or two of refresher oil brings it back without replacing the whole bag — closer to relighting a candle than starting over.
