From the Oriente Italiano collection at Ginori 1735, (pretty but spendy) home fragrances for Holiday 2023: "Two new fragrances explore new olfactory universes: Cuoio Rosso, with its fruity-woody notes, emanates a vibrant energy in the room. Vicolo Dell'Oro, with refreshing floral and musky notes, to accompany moments of pleasant relaxation." Neiman Marcus has a bunch of the items for pre-order, including the candles in 250g ($210) and 700g ($420), the candle vase (right rear, $880) and its refill (far right, 1520g, $190), the diffuser in 200 ml ($180) or 500 ml ($270), and the diffuser vase (shown above center, $1350). Also shown are the two scented stone boxes (which appear to be sold separately from the actual stones with diffuser oil) those are not at Neiman Marcus as of yet.

A "Festive Holiday" candle trio from Parfums de Marly: "Winter Woods evokes the burning intensity of dark woods in the roasted facet of oil of cade, a textured leather accord, and enchanting guaiac wood. True to its name, Spiced Delight expresses notes of honey and cinnamon on a heart of amber combined with vanilla and tonka bean. Royal Pine, is like a promenade through the aromatic freshness of pine and cedar; two majestic, raw and intense woods that set on a warm base of cashmere and patchouli." Three x 75g, $150 at Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, Dillards, Saks, Harrods, Selfridges.

From Atkinson's, the Rum & Chestnut Duet candle: "Rum & Chestnut Duet is a glorious concoction of ingredients designed to conjure up images of flaming rum-soaked puddings, burning log fires, and of course, the comforting aroma of roasted chestnuts. Joining the sensory party are notes of frankincense and cedarwood for a spicy, smoky, ever-so-slightly sweet, and dare we say exotic fragrance that most definitely packs a (rum) punch. Inspired by two of winter’s most suggestive aromas, Rum & Chestnut Duet is an unconventional fragrance that is earthy and smoky with just a hint of sweetness. Light this sweet but spicy Limited edition candle and banish the winter blues!" $80 for 200g at Dillards.
