Hmm, it's not the part of winter where we're busy singing festive songs. And it's not the part where everyone can be heard celebrating with party poppers and champagne. Instead, it's the dwindling months of the season where minds inevitably begin to wander to the months just around the corner - Spring! I've been crossing my fingers for snow for what feels like an eternity and so I now declare my tireless efforts over. Officially over. With daffodils showing their pretty heads and sunshine making more regular appearances, I'm ready to head into March with my focus on the Spring season and all of the beautiful sights and scents it brings with it. To mark the occasion, I'm immersing myself in a too-pretty-for-its-own-good Monoi-Scented Candle c/o by My Jolie Candle...
My Jolie Candle (as featured in Elle, Grazia and Stylist Magazine) was founded by two French men in Paris with a vision of providing candles for women that excite with an element of surprise. Hidden within each candle's wax and wrapped in aluminium foil is a beautifully dainty piece of jewellery - a ring, bracelet or necklace, each adjustable or previously selectable by size. With 100 jewellery options developed, there really is no chance of ruining the surprise; though if you fancy a peek at the general style of jewellery you can anticipate, check out their gallery of happy customers!
My chosen scent as shown in these images, is the graceful but strong Monoi-Scented Candle*. It's been intentionally crafted to provide 'the authentic feeling of Summer days' and to a land of 'Tahitian gardenias, coconut palm trees and sandy beaches'. Well, mission accomplished. I don't want to get ahead of myself by discussing Summer, but it's undoubtedly set my mind on the warmer months of the year that are coming up - starting with Spring!
With love,
Gabrielle x
I dream of sun, sand, warm water... I need that candle, today it's so cold and rainy in Milan... Lovely pics, colors pop up... You know I love the way you write :)

Wow these sound amazing and not something I have heard of before. I love the idea of finding a surprise hidden at the bottom of the candle and I just know I would be burning it every day in hope of finding out what it is. This would make a great gift for someone too so I'm definitely going to make a note of it for future reference :) x
ReplyDeleteThis is such a clever idea! I'm not a big fan of candles but this one sounds so unique and would look gorgeous on any desk or dressing table!
ReplyDeleteThe Modern Audrey
these candles seems wonderful...and what a lovely idea to have a bracelet in every one of them...and even a better idea to have a gold diamont piece in every 1 of 100. It's like candle lottery.

These sort of candles seems to be on trend now; a piece of jewelry is hidden inside. Personally I have yet to try any but I would love to try one for myself and it would make such a lovely gift too.

Oooh the packaging of this product is so cute! I wish I could buy a lots of candles and put in my room. However, sometimes, the strong scent can make me sneeze T_T
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun candle. Like the idea of a hidden gift inside! Haha :-) And the smell of spring don't sound too bad right now. I welcome March with open arms :-)
ReplyDeleteI absolutely adore the idea of these candles with a little hidden present inside and the way you have described this scent you picked definitely makes me want to go purchase one for myself!

I love scented candles and I find it fascinating how fragrances affect us. I like the fruity ones better than the floral ones but anything that smells good always has my vote. Did you get the real gold jewelry?
ReplyDeleteHey! I haven't reached the bracelet yet as the candle is still busy burning away - I'll be revealing it on my Instagram eventually though!
DeleteGabrielle x
What a great idea. This would make such a fun gift! Can't wait to see the style of bracelet this holds.

ReplyDeleteMy, how time flies. Spring's here.
ReplyDeleteI love scented candles and what I'm using now is Citronella. It's relaxing plus it keeps away mosquitoes and other bugs.
If this candle really does provide 'the authentic feeling of Summer days', I need it in my life. I'm so over winter!!!
ReplyDeleteAlso, it's so cool that it contains a piece of jewellery!
