The Sherlock Holmes-Scented Candle is a useful tool for any amateur detective who is not overly concerned about fire safety.

• You can light it and hold it in front of a window to send signals to your assistant. (Assuming your assistant lives nearby.) (Also assuming it is night.)
• You can use it to burn important papers. (You probably weren't going to need those later!)
• The label includes advice on how to look for clues. You do know about clues, right?
• It smells like tobacco so it's a good way for you to research what tobacco smells like.
• When contemplating a difficult case, you can pretend to smoke the tiny wax pipe. It might not help you solve the case, but it can't hurt either! (Unless the candle is lit.)
