I’ve just gone to light my favourite candles as a distraction from the filthy weather outside.
One is a Diptyque lavender, a present from my lovely DIL the other is a Rathbones wild mint,watercress and thyme, also a present from DIL!
The Diptyque candle has only a couple of evenings left, the Rathbones months!
They both cost more than I would normally spend on myself, I tend to rummage in TKMaxx but I adore them.

What are your favourites?

Sand and Fog, tkmaxx when they are in. Otherwise Aldi hotel collection, their pomegranate smells like the overpriced Jo Malone.

I came across this older discussion and wanted to add that I’ve recently fallen for anything with a clean herbal scent. Has anyone tried the rosemary and mint candles from small makers on Etsy? They seem to fill the room without being too strong. I’m also curious if anyone has found a good lavender alternative to Diptyque that isn’t quite as pricey.
