I e been very fortunate and this weekend have been gifted the use of a luxury penthouse apartment by a very distant relative.
I want to leave a thank you gift and thought a beautiful candle rather than flowers/wine as not sure when the owners will next visit their place.
I know some makes are considered a bit naff so any advice on what would be deemed up market?
I thought, Jo Malone, white stuff, Boden? I usually buy cheaper range stuff but these people are seriously push😀
Thanks

Diptyque

Nanasueathome · 19/02/2022 08:29

Diptique
Jo Loves
Neom

PolkaSpace · 19/02/2022 08:29

Or white company

Uttoxerly · 19/02/2022 08:30

Neom or Diptyque

PolkaSpace · 19/02/2022 08:30

Yes Jo Loves rather than Jo Malone these days.

Thanks that great. I need to buy it today to take with me as not sure I'll have time to shop whilst away. I do have big shopping areas nearby. Is it probably best to head to the one with a John Lewis?

I bought a neom one for the first time recently snd it’s gorgeous. The scent lasts longer than jo malone. Perfect peace is the name

BigSandyBalls2015 · 19/02/2022 09:07

I got it in M&S

BigSandyBalls2015 · 19/02/2022 09:08

I’m sure John Lewis will have a great choice.

Penhaligons
Rituals
Esteban

Esteban in particular is my fav.
Others suggested above also great options.

Diptyque

Ki0612 · 19/02/2022 09:26

I really love the white company candles.

Bichette · 19/02/2022 09:33

Cire Trudon but not sure that JL stock them.

Otherwise Dyptique

Tibtab · 19/02/2022 09:57

I love Diptyque, they smell until the end and the wax melts evenly so no tunnelling!

Thanks everyone, I've bought a Neom candle gift set in John Lewis. Will package it up nicely. Hoping it will fit the bill.

Couldn't see Dypetique stocked in JL which is why I chose Neom 2nd choice.

Ralph's Orchard do lovely affordable candles in unique upcycled containers like teacups if you're after something a little different!
