If you're after a luxurious, (very) last minute gift idea...I can't think of anything better than this Diptyque (Set of 10) Candles - a Nordstrom exclusive. [Shop it HERE] It truly is for the candle connoisseur...or just any special person that you'd love to spoil (if not yourself). ;)
Above: the leaflet that contains a little description/history of each of the candle scents included.
The french brand has been around for 50 years and this exclusive set includes two signature scents that were created from each decade. When you open the huge, beautiful box, you're immediately hit by the intoxicating aromas of tea, cinnamon, rose, jasmine, tuberose, berries, fig, wood, patchouli and amber.
These are the candles included from left to right:
- Thé
- Cannelle
- Roses
- Jasmin
- Baies (my absolute personal favourite!)
- Tubereuse
- Figuier
- Feu de Bois
- Ambre
- Patchouli
Each candle is 1.2 oz. and has a 12-hour burn time.
Each candle is 2 inches in height. Below are photos showing a comparison of the little candles compared to the 50-60 hour candle.
*sigh* I love this! ^_^ It's a great way to try all the different scents without spending too much. Also, I reckon it might be lovely to mix and match two or more candles and burn them together for a more customised home fragrance. ;)
Hope this was helpful.
Thanks for stopping by! ^_^ xo
