From Upton, Magnolia Blossom Oolong: "This Guangdong province specialty is a lovely Oolong tea, scented with magnolia flowers. Alternately known as Orchid Oolong or in Chinese Yu Lan, this selection is a must try for those who appreciate a fine scented tea. The flavor nuances are unique, but hints of jasmine lend a recognizable character." $17.25 for 125g.

From Nomad Noé, the Poet in Hangzhou candle: "Poet in Hangzhou is named for Qiu Jin, an anarchist poet who rallied Chinese women against oppressive traditions. Poet in Hangzhou is a lush, graceful fragrance, a cup of flowering tea unfurling its petals." With bamboo, gardenia, jasmine and tuberose, $65 at Arielle Shoshana.

The Oka Rose Fumée candle: "The English brand OKA has always had a passion for designing stunning homes, where nothing is too precious to be enjoyed... and could this be truer of anything more than a candle, made by Cire Trudon, the world’s oldest active candle manufacturer? [...] The heady, smoky scent of burning cedar, sandalwood and silver birch drifts up to the majestic stone balcony where the woman stands to observe the festivities. Amidst the clearing of lemon and orange trees far below, the crackling flames of the bonfire snake up to meet the twinkling indigo sky. As the people dance, the delicate, dewy petals of the morning’s freshly bloomed roses are long forgotten." £75 for 250g. You can read more about the collection here. Hat tip to David!
