Bella Freud Ciao Candle
Having made her name as a fashion icon and taste-maker, Bella Freud’s candles are as quirky as her covetable sweaters (donned by the likes of La Moss, Alexa and the lovely Laura Bailey). Housed in chic matte white glassware, embossed with her signature slogans, these make a stand-out addition to any hearth, bookshelf or bedside table – and their super-sleek aesthetic is only the beginning…
Made with hand-poured natural wax infused with the finest essential oils and extracts, this heady candle fills your room with its intoxicating fragrance – even without being lit! Bringing flair to your mantelpiece, say 'Ciao' to this to cool invocation of Italian optimism.
An evocative medley of fresh, verdant fig leaf, clean orange blossom and vetiver, Bella Freud's Ciao Candle conjures the warmth of stroll through Milano in springtime. Think: the smooth and seductive allure of a stranger's cologne as it melds with the smell of sun-drenched fig leaves on the breeze. Throw the tang of fresh espresso into the mix and you're whisked to the set of a Luca Guadagnino film - just imagine you're Tilda, impeccably dressed as she wafts through the gardens of Villa Necchi, falling in lust in the languid Italian sunshine. A thing of beauty this is almost too gorgeous to use however, if you’re able to convince yourself to set a match to it, this will burn for around 40 hours – transforming your space, both visually and aromatically, into something deserving of ‘at home with Vogue’.
Place in the central part of the room for optimum fragrance distribution. TOP TIP: Minimise smoking by trimming wick after each use and make sure you burn the candle for a good hour the first time you light it, this keeps it burning evenly.
Hand poured natural wax.
