Travel and Leisure Feature: December 2019

"To me, candles are kind of the perfect gift. I've always felt a little indulgent spending too much money on them for myself, but when you receive them from someone else, it's such a treat. Plus, with so much time spent at home this year, candles help make our spaces feel a little more zen — and I think it's safe to say we could all benefit from that. This local small business makes beautifully minimalist candles that smell incredible (Love Potion is a favorite), and their holiday collection in black matte and gold foil would make a chic addition to any home's holiday decor. I'm already dreaming of burning CYPRÈS (crisp notes of pine, cypress, and balsam) while decorating the Christmas tree this year.."
