From Jo Loves, the Spring layered candle: "Unique to Jo Loves, Spring A Layered Candle combines three individual spring floral scents: one on top of the other. From the smooth citrus scent of Tahitian Gardenia, layered on top of the fresh, clean Orange Blossom to the final layer of sweet, floral Tuberose Blossom, it truly is an ode to spring". £90 for 250 g at Jo Loves in the UK.

One of these days I will break down and buy a Loewe candle, but which? I want beetroot, I want incense, I want orange blossom. The latest, Roasted Hazelnut: "The ‘Roasted Hazelnut’ scented candle has an extra-high-intensity fragrance with a woody, nutty aroma evocative of the unique fragrance of roasted hazelnuts: a culinary delicacy with a distinctively rich flavour often used in desserts and confectionary. Its deep, spicy and smoky aspects unfold to reveal sweet notes of brown sugar over time. Crafted in natural wax with a single cotton wick, the candle is presented in a black glazed terracotta vessel with a stamped base." The 170g is $120 (or 610g for $245; 2120g for $495). The matching 150 ml room spray is $135, and there's also a new Mushroom home fragrance.

From Adlan Fragrances, the Bitter End candle: "Embark on a journey of contrast, where the brisk allure of bitter orange and earthy petitgrain beckons you into sun-kissed Mediterranean neroli, tenderly sweetened by golden honey. This dynamic tale culminates in a whispered embrace of delicate orange blossom and intoxicating jasmine, capturing the duality of life’s sweet and bitter moments in an elegant, evocative dance." $85 for 290g at Candle Delirium.
