Want: the new Odeurs d'Egypte collection from Cire Trudon for holiday 2018. The scents are Philae ("The Philæ candle is scented with a soft papyrus fragrance that evokes a timeless heritage"), Amon ("Creative and solar, Amon is the master of eternity: naturally, the Amon candle is scented with traditional incense and the voluptuousness of cedar wood in order for timelessness to prevail") and Gizeh ("The candle’s distinct candied-firewood scent evokes age-old History"). Available in a 3 x 100g gift set, or in individual 270g sizes.

The Étoile candle, from Cire Trudon's 2017 holiday collection: "Like a wooden breeze, Étoile re-enacts the scent of traditional Japanese incense. Commonly used in Japanese interiors, the voluptuousness of cedar wood Hinoki settles in; it is softened by a hint of balm that calls for the festive season. The open-knot (Hana-Musubi) expresses the wish that good news come repeatedly. It can easily be tied and untied." Additional notes include rose, aldehyde, patchouli, tonka bean and sandalwood. $105.
