The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 28 February 2025 3 Comments

It's the usual: I know nothing about this brand, I just like that jar. From Lazarus Douvos, the Rose 1845 candle. "Discover a limited-edition collectible: a handcrafted Milky-white enameled ceramic vessel by Maison Carron Paris, designed exclusively for Lazarus Douvos. Adorned with the brand's design, it pays homage to the ROSE 1845 story of love and romance. As the candle is lit, the soft, golden light dances across the room, seducing you to a moment where time stands still, and beauty is elevated to an art form." $320 (well then) for 400g at Neiman Marcus.

More snake, this one from Paddywax, in "Wild Lemongrass": "A dopo! translates to See ya Later! This friendly, on-the-go attitude inspired this whimsical collection that alludes to summertime travels across the Mediterranean and beyond. 8 oz ceramic candles with hand-painted details have been filled with bold fragrances to match the imaginative design and ignite your senses." $30 for 226g at Revolve.

A different take on a candle for Valentine's Day? From Arquiste, Little Paws: "Dedicated to dog lovers and their furry best friends. An elevated take on a familiar, comforting scent. A candle inspired by Chorizo, our resident pup's little paws. With notes of orris butter popcorn, corn chips, ambergris, ylang-ylang and vanilla musk." $65 for 255g at Arquiste.

From Carrière Frères, the limited edition Laos Benzoin candle trio: "Married to the Damask rose, the Laos benzoin becomes oriental and floral, wonderfully feminine. Blended with the Siberian fir, it is woody with an underlying resinous note. Combined with Ivory coast cacao, it gains smoothness, becomes heartwarming and voluptuous." $130 for 185g at Carrière Frères.
