Any regular readers of my blog will know I have a passion for candles and one of the most recent ones to be added to my collection is *Orchidee Imperiale by Guerlain.
The first thing that stands out about this candle is the stunning packaging. I love the bright blue glass casing as it’s different from other candles in my collection and it looks really nice displayed on a table if it fits your colour scheme. It makes a nice change to the standard transparent glass although they are more practical.
Moving on to the scent of Orchidee Imperiale, it’s beautiful. It has a very rich, dreamy floral scent with a hint of sweetness which is lovely. It’s definitely one of those candles you want to keep picking up and sniffing as you walk past (if it’s not alight of course) and when it is lit the entire house is filled with the pretty fragrance.
I’ve had some trouble trying to find this candle online so I won’t leave a link but I know they are definitely available in Debenhams because that is where mine is from. It’s definitely worth taking a look at although I can imagine it’s probably a little on the pricey side.
Have you tried any candles by Guerlain? What candle would you recommend I try next? (any brand)

Hi. I've only just gotten into candles after having spent years wondering what all the fuss is about. Now having a scented candle is a must when I have a bath, it's just not the same without. I've actually only got one by Thalgo which I got in a salon which has a spicy scent to it. I'm actually looking for a lavender one but can't seem to find one anywhere. I bought one in sainsbury's which was a waste of £5 as it smells of nothing. Have you ever had a lavender one? I will look at the Guerlain candles the next time I'm in a department store. Thanks.
So luxurious! I bet this smells amazing! x

If you are (still) after a lavender-scented candle, I can recommend L'Occitane for stingy, fresh, a little bit powdery lavender. The fragrance power power is not disappointing at all.
Based on what I've heard, Guerlain candles and home fragrances are available for purchase in one Paris boutique only. Fortunately for all the rest of us, they are sometimes given as a VIP GWP. Talk about exclusive… Makes me want one even more. 😉
