It doesn't take a genius to know that I am totally, completely, irrecoverably and unapologetically
obsessed with candles.
But I've watched enough Real Housewives episodes to know that I don't have to sit through an intervention if I own it. I have no regrets! It's like when someone at work was questioned about her jelly sweet addiction, she simply stated: "hey, at least it's not Crack". And you know what, I agree with her.
Autumn/winter scents bring me so much joy it's almost silly. I look forward to this time of the year because it means I can pack away my much loved
Seashore and
Chamomile & Violet candles and wack out everything spiced and all things nice. For this time of year, I love scents that are really warming and cosy, or something quite subtle yet crisp. I'm not huge on strong cinnamon tones, but throw in some apple I am
sold.
Time to put on a seasonal film, run a bubbly bath and make some Whittard hot chocolate... and light one of these many candles,
obvs.
