The almost-daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 21 October 2026 4 Comments

The holiday candle trio from Maison Francis Kurkdjian for 2026: "This holiday season, Côté Cour and Côté Jardin take the stage alongside Mon beau Sapin. Echoing the theatrical splendour of the Grand Siècle, Côté Cour reveals its notes of rice powder, iris, and sweet violet, a tribute to the art of stage makeup, while Côté Jardin breathes a trail of softly-crushed fresh-cut herbs, intertwined with the delicacy of roses and the cool freshness of lush green foliage. Reigning over the season, Mon beau Sapin illuminates the scene with a woody, softly resinous fragrance. Three festive, refined candles in homage to the Grand Siècle, to awaken the magic of the holidays." The set is 3 x 75g for $115, or buy them individually, 250g for $115, at Neiman Marcus.

    Côté Cour sounds beauuuutiful!
    And finally for once a mini set that isn’t much more expensive per gram just because there’s variation.

    Glasshouse has all their seasonal candles available too, but I’ve kind of given up on them. I never found another to match my beloved dragon candle from a couple of years ago- either is scent or design. I’m going to have to branch out for holiday candles this year, I guess.

      Ah, but I will take a look at the designs anyway! Thanks. And yes, that dragon was the best.
