Scent From have treated their subscribers to a romantic journey to the capital of love, Paris, for their February candle subscription box. It may sound cliched, but I adore Paris at any time of the year, and they really couldn’t have chosen any other location for the month of Valentine’s Day could they?!
For those reading this who are new to Scent From, they’re a premium candle subscription box with a difference as each box every month is curated around a popular travel destination. All of the scents and fragrances inside the box have been specially chosen to reflect that particular destination, so you get to experience something different every month – a really cool concept in my opinion! As well as candles, they also include other home fragrance and accessories, with these again changing every month to reflect the chosen theme.
Inside February’s Scent From box, I found the following products:-
Scent From Paris Canova Tin Candle in White Truffle & Cognac
A limited edition luxury tin candle which has been made from 100% soy wax, it features a cool Paris themed city print and it smells beautiful. There are strong notes of Cognac blended with softer and more subtle hints of White Truffles for an overall sweet and romantic scent. Excellent scent throw that easily fills an average sized living room or bedroom, and the soy wax base ensures that it burns cleanly with no black smoke or soot.
Chocolate Heart Truffles & Fruit Cremes
It’s always a pleasure to receive a bag of chocolate (I mean, who wouldn’t like that?!), and they of course fit in with the Valentine’s Day/love theme perfectly. I couldn’t see a brand name on the bag, but I can assure you that they were delicious (they didn’t last long in my house though!). There was a good mix of melt-in-your-mouth heart shaped chocolate truffles with dark chocolate raspberry and strawberry fruit cremes, all individually wrapped in coloured foil. Mmmmm!
Flamingo Candles Mini Rose Velvet and Precious Oud Heart Candle
Flamingo Candles have been one of my favourite discoveries from the Scent From boxes, so I was pleased to see this cute mini candle from them in this month’s box. The natural soy wax has been hand-poured into the vintage inspired glass and finished off with some twine and a little wooden heart for a nice extra touch. It’s scented with Rose and Oud for a luxury floral fragrance which I just love. As it’s a mini candle, the scent throw was limited as you’d expect, but still, for a small candle, it was pretty impressive.
Scent From Paris Print Mug
The fourth and final product is a bespoke Scent From Paris mug which is illustrated with the themed print of Paris’ beautiful skyline (a great tie-in with the print on the Scent From candle above). The mug was packaged securely in its own cardboard box to ensure safe arrival, and you could happily give this as a gift if you wanted to.
It’s always a pleasure following the Scent From journeys and I can’t wait to see where they travel to next month!
