The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 14 September 2018 4 Comments

In case, like me, you'd like to hold on to summer a bit longer, the Moscow Mule candle from Julep Candle Co: "Perfect just in time for spring and summer, this Moscow Mule scented candle smells just like ginger and lime in a beautiful 100% copper Julep cup. A fizzy aldehydic aroma infused with fresh herbs for a bubbly and refreshing fragrance." $36. (If you're ready for fall, go for the Hot Toddy: "A fall blend of cider with notes of apple, sugar and cloves but adds the tart and tangy kick of fresh pomegranate.")

From British brand No 22, the Woodstove candle: "Conjuring the comforting aroma of a fireplace, No.22's hand-poured 'Woodstove' candle is infused with oil from Palo Santo trees - the timber gives a complex, fragrant smoke when burnt. With Vanilla and Musk also at its base, it has a heart of Cedar, Birch Tar and Moss that's layered with warm and smoky Cinnamon to close. The ceramic vessel is detailed with the label's signature cable-knit motif." $60 for 245g at Net-A-Porter.

From Diptyque, the 34 Bazar Candle: "The Elide is the evocation of the epic Fauna, an ancient figure that fascinated Desmond Knox-Leet, in this region of Greece where bitter orange peel essences, aromatic plants and wild lavender meet. His blackmat biscuit pot is adorned with a representation of Fauna." $85 for 220g at Neiman Marcus.

For layering fans? Deux candles from La Belle Mèche, in Green Grey ("WOOD FIRE x RED BERRIES : smoked, fruity and sophisticated. Notes of woods and smoke are sweetened by blackberries and blackcurrants on the heart. Vanilla and pralin warmth the fragrance.") or my pick, Pink Powder ("GRAPEFRUIT x GINGER : fresh, fizzy and light. Top notes of fresh citrus balanced with spiced notes of ginger, nutmeg and cardamom.") 300g each for €75.
