From Scents of Wood, the Bread in Chestnut candle: "An explosion of refined balsams in Scents of Wood's Bread in Chestnut candle brings a golden opulence to the gourmand category. Perfumer Meabh McCurtin created a decadent and comforting balsamic bread signature by combining the buttery, creamy facets of sandalwood with the toasted warmth of bran absolute and almond tonalities of tonka bean. Fresh, camphoraceous rosemary and smoky incense cut through the gourmand sweetness to give it more depth. The result is a refined edible fragrance that is inviting and addictive." $70 for 225g at Ministry of Scent.

From Parfums de Nicolaï, a Christmas Pudding candle: "Christmas pudding is a fruity, spicy treat with soft brioche notes.

Clove and cinnamon are at the heart of this berry note, with vanilla and caramel coating the flavourful festive scent." 190g for €54.
