SNOW GLOW ZONE
A flickering orange flame dancing above the fireplace…the seductive scent of mystical woods and patchouli….blissful blends and soothing lavender… these are few of our favourite things:
Straight To Heaven by By Kilian £55
By Kilian’s candle (above) is hands down one of the stunners of the season, and it’s exclusively available at Harvey Nichols. Deep and enigmatic patchouli from Java blends with Brazilian rosewood, nutmeg and cider…black, beautiful and what a gorgeous lid.
PERDIGONE by Diptyque £45
Fruity, festive and with a lovely warming scent, this indulgent Spiced Plum holiday collection candle comes in one of the prettiest containers around this Christmas, from French fragrance specialists Diptyque.
STAR CANDLE by Julien Macdonald £6.40
We fell in love with this fabulous red diamante studded mini candle! Oh yes, sometimes the most glamorous gifts come in the smallest packages.
LANGOUR PICCOLO CANDELA GIFT SET by Molton Brown £42
Four mini candles – Firefly Embers, relaxing Yuan Zhi, Re-charge Black Pepper and Imps Whisper (the names!) this is the sort of foursome we imagine George Clooney might be burning at his villa in Italy on Christmas Eve. MOLTON BROWN
BOUDOIR VENETIEN and HIVER EN RUSSE by Guerlain £43 each
BOUDOIR VÉNITIEN, like a red shade of a lipstick courted by wild blackcurrant.. Parma violet whispers secrets to opulent Cordoba leather…and HIVER EN RUSSIE evoking the sparkling snow of a Russian Winter, golden domes piercing a frosty late afternoon sky warmed with intoxicating precious scents and a hint of incense. Winter wonderland dreams…at Harrods.
LAVANDE by L’Occitane £19
Lavender and Provence go together like snow and sleighs and their Lavande collection is heavenly. For sheer relaxation, this is one of the loveliest and most natural lavender scented candles around.
BLISS AROMATHERAPY CANDLE by Liz Earle £9
Full of Christmas bliss, this scented mini candle contains vital precious oils of sandalwood, jasmine, rosewood, black pepper and ylang ylang…small and rather perfectly scented!
