My lovely friend Tati (otherwise known as
GlamLifeGuru on YouTube, if you don’t already watch her fabulous videos, I
would recommend that you do!) kindly sent me a wonderful box of housewarming
goodies this week. Part of which was this beautiful ‘Moroccan Amber’ candle
from Nest.
I’m the first to admit, I’m super fussy when it comes to scented candles. If they don’t kick out the
scent sufficiently, they are swiftly banished to the guest bedroom or bathroom
and labeled as aesthetic-only, never to be burnt again.
But for this little beauty, that was not
the case…
The scent of warm, creamy amber and sweet
patchouli radiated from the whole package when I opened it (which has got to be
a good sign, right?!) When lit, it didn’t disappoint and filled my office with
it’s beautiful fragrance within about 5 minutes of lighting.
I immediately went online to find out more
about this brand, which I hadn’t heard of before. The good news is, they have a
nice selection of other scents (Hello Fig & Honey, Moss & Mint, Pumkin
Chai and Wasabi Pear!) and they do sell them in
the UK! You can pick up this scent, along with a selection of others from the
brand, from John Lewis. They are £29 each, so quite hefty on the price front,
but make beautiful gifts and have an impressive 60 hour burn time. I’m obsessed
already.
Have any of you tried any products from Nest? I’d love to hear what you think!
*UPDATE – I believe John Lewis have now stopped stocking NEST (shocker!)
