Candles, Candles: Jonathan Ward Verte Candle Collection

If you haven’t come across Jonathan Ward and his amazing scented candles, then you’ll probably wonder why I keep banging on about them. It’s simply because in an ocean of fragranced candles, they really do stand out – the fragrances are so pure and rich that they fill a room within moments as well as lasting a long time. I love candles and always have something on the burn, so I know when a candle boasts ’40 hours’ of burn time whether its true or not. In JW’s case, it really is, but I’ve noticed that some candle claims have a whole other time zone when it comes to the burn time. Anyway, if you love fine fragrances and candles, the Verte Candle Collection is a good place to start. Three mini candles with clean and green notes in delectable scent nuances, After The Rain, Moss and Citrine Ivy are a fabulous introduction to the range. £34.99, www.jonathanwardlondon.com
