Warm atmosphere in the house with candles!
We can never repeat it enough: candles are truly ideal decorative pieces for creating an atmosphere in your interior. In every room, candles know how to find their place to bring not only a warm atmosphere, but also a signature scent of your interior.
The candle: an essential home accessory
Why candles?
Over time, candles have become simply essential decorative accessories in our interiors. At nightfall, they illuminate the corners of our rooms by providing a warm and intimate light . Today, we must admit that in the world of interior decoration, it is quite difficult to imagine a warm atmosphere without the light of a candle.
And they not only enhance the decor when they are lit : they are real decorative objects due to their shape, their volume, but also their color ! So, whether you choose to turn them on or leave them off, they will always have their effect and will not fail to bring pep and character to your home sweet home.
What scent for your candle?
In terms of scents, the choice of candle will be crucial. Indeed, the smell of the candle will become the signature of your interior and must therefore be in accordance with the style of decoration that you have chosen to develop. You will find floral and vegetal, woody notes, others more fruity but also candles that smell like macarons, caramel or hot chocolate for a regressive and very comforting “return to childhood” side.
The great novelty in the world of candles is the scents of cities or places that evoke memories. So, if you like to spend your weekends in Deauville, Giverny or Cap Ferret, you will find a candle that can transport you there without even having to pack your bag!
And why not an unusual candle?
If you like quirky and original decorative ambiances, forget about “nap under the fig tree” or “seaside” scented candles! Instead, opt for a candle – scented or not – in an unusual way, which is sure to get people talking: “hangover” candle to get back on your feet the day after a night out, “fuck” candle to send a message without having to open your mouth , an orgasm or vagina scented candle made by Gwyneth Paltrow, a “Royal Cheese” or “Ketchup” candle to make you think you’re at McDonald’s, and 1001 candles with gently rude messages like “it’s hard that you’re younger than me, but ok” (available on Etsy, a perfect gift for a sister or a friend): the world of fun candles is almost limitless, for our greatest pleasure!
