Fragonard Candle Cannelle Orange

Another overdue post since Christmas is regarding this gorgeous cinnamon and orange scented candle that they bought out for the festive season. Now, sadly it's not available to purchase at present I believe but if you find it cropping it up ebay or back in stock at M&S sometime, remember to quickly add it to you basket to relive some of that Christmas cheer.

Not being a fan of orange and cinnamon when it comes to home scents, this was deliciously refreshing. I for once couldn't put a finger on the fact that these two ingredients dominated the scent category. It just smells so wholesome, comforting and delicious - almost spicy and slightly citrusy. I wouldn't call it a heady Christmas scent at all. It's in fact ones that one would cherish on rainy Summer evenings as well.

With the festive period bombarding us with Christmasy scents, I felt this was most unconventional one with chic matte ceramic packaging, Parisian artwork on the outer packaging and a handful of glitter thrown on top. It seamlessly blends in with any sort of home decor and still doesn't look out of place now that Christmas is, well... almost a year away!

There's lot of other pretty bits that Fragonard do, so definitely keep an eye out on www.marksandspencer.com.
