Just recently I was sent this DIVINE candle with a hand written note from Susie who imports Neom luxury organic candles into Australia. This is the ‘Christmas Wish‘ candle and the main scent is cinnamon, ginger, mandarin and tonka bean. I looked up the website and this is what it suggests you do while burning it:
“The perfect Christmas scent. Accompany with mulled wine & rich chocolate truffles for optimum pleasure. And don’t forget to make your Christmas Wish…”
Any candle that suggests you drink wine and eat chocolate while you burn it is enough to win me over, plus it’s main scent is cinnamon which is my absolute favourite in the whole world. I’m sceptical about candles and usually burn Archipelago because its the only brand I’ve found that fills the room with a soft, lingering scent. After burning the Neom candle for only 15 mins the air was perfumed with a gingery, cinnamon scent and after an hour the whole room smelled like spiced Christmas cookies. Heaven.
Peony Melbourne stocks the candles and if you haven’t been there for a visit you should check out this post from my favourite Melbourne blogger Esme and the Laneway. It’s Melbourne’s only haute perfumery and is definitely on my hidden treasures list if you are a visitor to Melbourne, or if you just like absolutely beautiful things.
