Jo Malone Red Roses Candle

I received this gorgeous candle for my birthday.  I love Jo Malone products but rarely buy them for myself.

The scent of the candle is Red Roses which is a blend of seven different varieties of roses, violet leaves and lemon.  It burns for 45 hours.  A lid and matches is included too which is a nice touch.

It scents the whole room and the scent lasts until the next day.  It is an expensive candle but as it highly scented you don't need to burn it for long.

Other favourite candles include - 


NEOM Happiness - scented with white neroli, mimosa and lemon.  I received a travel size of this candle in a previous Amarya box.


NEOM Sumptuous - scented with rose and neroli


Diptyque Roses - scented with a blend of roses


I also love Yankee Candles and in particular - Clean Cotton, French Vanilla, Fresh Cut Roses, Lilac Blossoms and Raindrops on Roses.


What are your favourite candles?

  1. Jo Malone candles just look so lovely, almost too pretty to burn. I'm lovin' Yankee Candles Sweetpea at the mo which is weird for me as I'm not really a floral person but its gorgeous.

  2. I always admire Jo Malone from a far I just struggle with the price (which I am sure if justified in quality)

  6. I do love Jo Malone fragrances, I've got the Red Roses perfume and always get compliments on it. I've not purchased any of the candles yet but I've been hinting for my birthday!
