The daily lemming

From Orla Kiely, an Earl Grey Tea candle: "Blending the refreshing citrus notes of bergamot with smoky black tea, to capture the true essence and warmth of classic Earl Grey. Made of 100% vegetal wax, this candle is presented in an elegant cream glass holder adorned with the Orla Kiely Spot Stem print and includes an individual heat protection mat. Well cared for, this candle will burn for up to 50 hours." $22.50 at AllBeauty.

Here, kitty kitty! From Gucci, the Guccify Cat Candle (old nuance, wax and camphor) and the Grotesque Garden Tiger Candle (tomato leaf, basil and lemon grass leaf). Richard Ginori porcelain, $630 (!) each at Bergdorf Goodman. (Clearly, the Fumus Cameo candle really is a bargain.)

A candle that matches one of my favorite teas: Countess Grey from Fortnum & Mason. "The Countess Grey tea, made with orange pekoe teas, elevated by bergamot and orange combine to create a candle of rare brightness and refinement. A first in Fortnum's long and storied history, this range of tea candles is made in England. Presented in a beautifully decorative box, this tea candle would make a perfect gift." £45 for a 280g candle, also available in a 75g votive for £22. Other scents in the collection include Green Jasmine, Lapsang Souchong and Rose Pouchong.

For fans of indie line Imaginary Authors, here is something new to want: "The Abandoned Mansion Candle by Imaginary Authors is part of the brands debut candle collection, along with Meet Me In The Meadow candle. Years went into the making of these two candles and they are now available for your enjoyment! The Abandoned Mansion candle is a rich and smoky cedar with a fruity quince accord behind the wood. This is a special one and like all Imaginary Authors fragrances, particularly unique. Notes of Cedar, Quince, and Paperbacks. This is a larger than average sized 11oz soy blend candle with a 60 hour burn time." $65 at Twisted Lily, where while supplies last they'll throw in a Short Story sample collection.
