I recently purchased Red Flower’s Orange Blossom diffuser to put in a newly remodelled guest bathroom. I was looking for a fragrance that would be light, uplifting and refreshing, while also maintaining a certain air of elegance. I took a chance and ordered the Orange Blossom diffuser unsniffed as I generally have been so pleased with the variety of products I have tried from Red Flower. I was not disappointed!
The Red Flower diffuser fragrances come in lovely recycled light green-blue Spanish glass vases. Their distinctive flattened oval shape lends a flair of modern style to any room. The available fragrances are jasmine grandiflorum, cardamom amber resin, orange blossom and cherry blossom. The website describes the Orange Blossom diffuser as scenting the air with “warm and bright mandarin, oranges, lemon and soft rose honey”…
During our recent cold spell and rain-storms here in the Northeast, I felt a craving for a rich, comforting scent to bring some depth, light and warmth into my surroundings. I wandered around sniffing my half burnt candles trying to decide which to light, but nothing quite seemed to resonate. My all-time favorite blustery weather candle, Mure Sauvage by L'Artisan, was all finished, and I was about to give up my search when I came across an unopened box — African Lily by Red Flower.
Reviewing candles and home fragrance products is difficult (violins, commence!) It is almost impossible to obtain samples of home fragrance (room sprays, diffuser oils, candles), and even if sample candles were available, how could I gauge their full-size effects? The reason most of my home fragrance product reviews are positive is not because I am eager to please or easily pleased, it's because I smell candles, room sprays, diffuser products and incense in a store before buying them and I buy what I like — and then review the products.
Capturing a grove of night blooming jasmine is a next to impossible task for a candle, yet Red Flower Indian Jasmine comes close. At first, the scent is subtle and gentle, a bare whisper of white flowers, however about half an hour after lighting the candle, one is suddenly surrounded by the opulent fragrance of jasmine. The scent is rich, yet soft, vacillating between green jasmine flowers and barely opened gardenia buds. The alluring scent makes Indian Jasmine candle a perfect choice for a romantic evening.
