Why burn one candle when you can burn three? Not simultaneously of course, but variety is the spice of life and you’ll find luscious scents for whatever interior ambience you wish to create with the Circa Home Miniature Candle Assortment. Never underestimate the power of sensual aroma to change the way you encounter a room and the three mini home candles update the feel of my home in seconds. The three fragrances featured in the pack are the zesty 1977 Pear & Lime, the sweet 1998 Mango & Papaya and my personal favourite, the summer florals of 1961 Jasmine & Magnolia.
RRP: $29.95 David Jones, Bed Bath N’ Table and selected gift and homewares stores nationally.
