Bring on the dark, chilly autumn evenings!
We don't know about you, but come September and October, we are all about staying in (sure we're great at that at this stage!) and cosying up with blankets, hot chocolate and – of course – candles lit.
And if you really want to treat yourself to the best of the best when it comes to scented candles – Jo Malone has just launched their new Townhouse Collection – and honestly, we kind of want it all.
The stunning new collection, which would make the perfect hostess gift come Christmas dare we say, takes its inspiration from the scented scenes and celebrated moments within a London townhouse; from freshly baked temptations in the drawing-room to colourful stories among the vines in the garden room.
In Jo Malone's words: "A house that becomes a home for all those who dream."
The candles, carefully crafted from high-grade ceramics, are pretty enough to be considered a decoration in itself, and the designs reference the finer details of Georgian architecture, from cornicing and columns to mantles and fireplaces. Each candle is then finished in unglazed ceramic – as a nod to the decadent textures seen in the most luxurious homes and townhouses the 1700s.
There are six candles in total as part of the new collection, each of them designed to capture the unique mood of a room or moment within the home. The collection includes:
Wild Berry & Bramble
Welcome Home. The scent for any hour. The style for any place. A signature scent for the home.
Pastel Macaroons
Afternoon Tea. The taste of temptation. Delectable desserts in the drawing-room.
Green Tomato Vine
The Garden Room. Sunlight captured. Vines warmed inside. A place to linger.
Glowing Embers
A Cosy Night In. Pages turn in front of the fire. A moment to kindle your imagination.
Lilac Lavender & Lovage
Calming Sundays. Gentle rain on the window. The comfort of clean white sheets.
Fresh Fig & Cassis
A Sunlit Morning. Late summer nostalgia. Fig trees embraced by the sun. A freshness on the breeze.
The Jo Malon Townhouse Collection is available at Brown Thomas and Jo Malone London boutiques now, and costs €102 for a 300g candle.
