Ormonde Jayne – Etoile Christmas Candles

‘Turn any space into a Christmas haven…’

Get ready for the smells and bells guys as the festive season is firmly upon us. These handy little numbers from London-based perfumery Ormonde Jayne are small enough to pop in your bag for a quick Christmas fix and big enough to pack a punch when it comes to filling a freezing Shoreditch warehouse with the comforting smell of Christmas.

The warm heady notes of Cinnamon, Cardamom, Bay, Amber and Tonka are cut though with a refreshing Citrus burst of Mandarin; less sugar and more spice.

The beauty of these babies is their twenty plus burning hours, quite a feat for candles of this size (think somewhere between shot glass and rocks glass), and the continuous scent is released even when unlit. Presented in a set of four, they make the perfect gift or when placed randomly around your space they will disperse scents that will have your guests scrambling on all fours searching for the mulled wine and gingerbread.

Verdict: ‘A Christmas scent so good you’ll be pushing guests out the door.’
