The Winter collection.

Carriere Freres is back with three limited edition luxury scented candles, and boy, oh boy, are they delicious! You have a choice among:

• Siberian Pine & Candied Ginger Candle
• Siberian Pine & Winter Rose Candle
• Lastly, Siberian Pine & Smoked Wood Candle

I have selected my favorite scents: Siberian Pine and Winter Rose, but if the choice is all too hard, you can purchase the three in a gift set.

The Siberian Pine and Winter Rose scented candle.

This Winter, the well-known 100% vegetable wax candles are taking on a soft and enveloping character. Inspired by the celebrated Winter rose, this candle perfectly blends femininity and reassurance. A blend of Rose petals and Pine needles meet a warm, comforting, woody note. “Carriere Freres” selected this rose for its floral sillage and ancient medicinal properties. Combined, the Rose and Siberian pine help overcome fatigue and anxiousness and soothe the mind. 

Christmas vibes all around.

Nothing screams out Christmas like a warm red shade, and that's exactly what this candle has. The holder has been beautifully decorated with pine illustrations, setting the mood for this holiday.

The candle details.

The candle offers a burning time of 40 to 45 hours. Lighting the candle for two hours should be enough to perfume your space.  

Dimensions: H: 9 cm Ø: 7.5 cm

How do you care for your candle?

To keep your candle burning healthily and smelling divine, follow these three simple steps:

• Burn your candle in a flat and safe space. This will help it burn evenly.
• Keep the wick short: This is the best way to stop your candle from digging through the wax.
• Burn it over short periods. The scent lasts long!

My experience.

It was not my first time purchasing a Carriere Freres candle, so I knew exactly what type of quality to expect. That said, I am always impressed when I finally get it home. I selected this scent as it instantly brought back so many memories. The rose and pine set a relaxing and refreshing ambiance to any space they are placed in. I 100% recommend this scent for the holiday period, and I love how it doesn't smell overpowering. 

If you are fed up with spicey candles and want to set a beautiful evening vibe, then this collection is perfect!

The Holiday Specials Collection

This Christmas, Francis Kurkdijan has released a trio of scented candles that will awaken your Christmas spirit. Let's take a look at the three beautiful scents:

• My beautiful Christmas tree (green): A woody, green scent that fills the room with the traditional pine tree scent.
• Toffee apple (red): Take a step back into childhood with caramelized apples' sweet and juicy scent.
• Gingerbread (orange): A trio of orange, honey, and cinnamon fill the air with a sweet yet spicy touch.

My Choice

I could have taken the three home, but a choice had to be made! This year I wanted to change up from the very common scents of cinnamon and spice. I decided to select the toffee apple fragrance. As the French call it, “pomme d'amour” translates to the apple of love. I found this fit ideally because Christmas is all about sharing love.

The Candle

Francis Kurkdijan released the limited edition scent in a beautiful bright red shade. The candle is preserved with its frosted glass case to light up your winter evenings. The holiday collection has a minimal design of sparkles on both the case and packaging. Moreover, every detail has been crafted to make it the perfect gift for you or your loved ones.

The Scent

Highly addictive, the candle gives off a great scent that lasts for hours on end. The fragrance isn't overpowering but sets a cozy and fun mood in the space it is set in. I light my candle for 2/ 3h each time and let the wax fully melt on the candle's surface. With this size candle, you can easily perfume a medium-sized room (dining room, living area).

Also, the candles weigh 180g with an average of around 40 hours of burn. Therefore, it is ideal for placing on a table or shelf; the candles softly decorate your space.
