[affiliate/sample] I still have roses on my rose trees at the front of my house – I’m not enough of a gardener to know whether this is usual or not but I suspect perhaps not. That said, my cherry tree is flowering too so maybe spring has arrived early for us :-). Diptyque’s January smile-maker is Paris En Fleur, an absolute celebration of roses and power-packed in terms of scent, unlike my wan winter blooms.
If you like a big boom of rose, it’s for you. There is patchouli in the mix which heightens its power but doesn’t detract from that sweet and clear floral scent.
I had it burning in my kitchen yesterday infusing a joyful freshness that permeated the entire room and the surrounding two rooms – I think it’s maybe their most powerful yet or perhaps I love the scent of rose so much that I’m more attuned to it but this limited edition candle is very generous. The box and candle illustrations are a celebration of art nouveau, designed by Pierre Marie, to highlight Paris’s many architectural highlights in this style. It’s £53 for the 190g candle HERE, and there is a scented oval that might be rather lovely for the car or wardrobe. Non affiliate HERE. While I was checking stockist info on SpaceNK, I noticed a couple of extraordinary bargains – one, the REN Summer Skin Care Set HERE, down from £63 to £26.50 containing Evercalm Cleanser, Evercalm Moisturiser and Clean Screen SPF50. One to snap up and use straight away as well as By Terry Hydra Eclat Serum down from £76 to £38 HERE. In fact, there is quite a lot of notoriously expensive By Terry skin care at roughly half price.
