Triple J Have Launched A Candle That Smells Like A Music Festival...

Don't worry, it's for a good cause.

The mad scientists over at triple j are no strangers to a weird-yet-killer bit of merch (just look at their Rage hoodie for dogs launched back in July). But drivetime presenters Michael Hing and Lewis Hobba have upped the game this time, with an olfactory overload set to transport you to a time when moshing in the mud was still an option.

Festivale (stylised with as many fancy umlauts and apostrophes as they could cram into a single word) is the new candle creation from the boys that was launched during the new triple j program, Bright Side

Encompassing all the aspects of a solid Aussie festival experience, the candle emits aromas from dirt and beer to old socks and grass (the naughty kind) - all the way down to cooked ham for that all important bacon and egg sanga for the morning after.

The very good news is that the candles are going for a good cause - with 100% of the profits going towards music industry crisis relief organisation Support Act.

Festivale will be available for purchase until the end of the week - 11.59 pm Sunday, 17 October. Check it out in all it's stinky glory here.
