[productsample] Every year, there’s a new candle from Jo Malone that supports people living with mental health issues.
This year, it’s lily of the valley and ivy – a really beautiful combination that’s both fresh and pretty. My all time favourite candle – ever – is from Dior in Paris (you can’t buy it in the UK) and it’s a power blast of Lily of the Valley which I absolutely love. But, it can be too much for some, especially blended with narcissus, which this is, so why cutting it with the sharpness and green-ness of ivy makes this more olfactorily palatable for anyone who is overwhelmed by the strength of some lily of the valley blends.
I find this candle quite gentle in nature – soothing and botanical but also sweet and delicate. The donations to mental health charities across the UK equals 75% of the retail price of £48 (less VAT). It’s launching in July. You can read more about the individual charities HERE.

this one has my name on it..I hope it is available in the US. I don’t typically splurge on candles but I may have to in this case.
Oh this one’s for me! My first scene, at about 12, was Diorissimo bought by my dad on our hols in Paris. It still tugs my heart like nothing else. Your Dior candle sounds like heaven! I’ll check this out in town; (I wish Jo Malone still did their Lily of the valley scent.)
