The daily lemming

Posted by on 3 Comments

Joya's latest collaboration: a Jimmy Fallon candle. "...a scented candle encased in a straight sided glass vessel hit with an organic matte black paint, the candle displays "The Tonight Show" logo of the city skyline in gold. The fragrance is called "CHERRYWOODSMOKE" and is evocative of the talks show set that Fallon designed, particularly the cherrywood cityscape behind his desk and the red leather audience seats." There's also a gold shamrock, Fallon's good luck charm, hidden in the wax. 185g for $40 at Joya. (found via Women's Wear Daily)

The Étoile candle, from Cire Trudon's 2017 holiday collection: "Like a wooden breeze, Étoile re-enacts the scent of traditional Japanese incense. Commonly used in Japanese interiors, the voluptuousness of cedar wood Hinoki settles in; it is softened by a hint of balm that calls for the festive season. The open-knot (Hana-Musubi) expresses the wish that good news come repeatedly. It can easily be tied and untied." Additional notes include rose, aldehyde, patchouli, tonka bean and sandalwood. $105.
