The second part of our 2024 gift guide is all about room fragrances and accessories. Scented candles, diffusers and room sprays are very popular in the cooler months of the year, especially during Advent and Christmas. That’s why I’ve put together a small overview of possible gifts below, which you can use to make your friends, family, colleagues or simply anyone who has a penchant for beautiful fragrances and unusual things happy.
Room fragrance gifts for the holidays
The Feu d’Hiver – Winter Fire scented candle from Carrière Frères is part of this year’s winter collection from the traditional French brand and combines the scents of fir balsam, cedar wood, pine, cashmere wood, amber, incense and birch. Inspired by the unique scent and cozy warmth of a fireplace, this scented candle is the ideal gift for anyone who loves and enjoys the special coziness and comfort of a winter evening. Also available in the blue Fleur d’Hiver – Winter Flower version.
The Fôret de Sabin scented candle from Côté Bougie is made entirely by hand and with great attention to detail. It has a lovely Christmassy scent of fir and eucalyptus, making for a really nice, pleasant and subtle room fragrance. The scented candle is available in three different sizes: 90 g with a burning time of approx. 20 hours, 190 g with a burning time of approx. 40 hours and
600 g with a burning time of approx. 80 hours. If you prefer the color dark green and the scent of orange blossom, you can also choose the Fleur d’Oranger scented candle from Côté Bougie, which is also available in the three sizes mentioned.
The Diptyque Holiday Collection 2024 naturally also includes scented candles, such as the limited edition Friandise (70 g), which combines the scents of gingerbread, cinnamon, candied orange and vanilla. With a burning time of 30 hours, this scented candle creates a cozy atmosphere and is also a real visual highlight. If you prefer the color blue, you can also choose the Étoile candle (190 g), which also belongs to the cult label’s Christmas collection and smells of rose, sandalwood, mimosa and iris.
The Sapin room spray from Diptyque, which has a wonderful scent of fir, resins, cedar and patchouli, creates the perfect festive atmosphere. The room spray quickly and easily creates a wonderful winter fragrance in the home. The intensity can be adjusted as desired. If you want an intense room fragrance, spray more often; if you prefer a more subtle scent, spray less. In addition to the classic room spray, the Sapin winter fragrance is also available as a reed diffuser, which is designed in the typical Diptyque style and is a particularly beautiful eye-catcher.
The Une Forêt D’Or – Noël scented candle from Goutal is an absolute classic and has been incredibly popular for years. The scent of pine, mandarin and orange creates a wonderful, festive and pleasant atmosphere. The scented candle comes in a classic dark green glass bottle that can be used all year round. The Une Forêt D’Or fragrance is also available as a diffuser and room spray and – in a limited edition – as a Christmas scented candle in a dark blue glass jar decorated with lavish ornaments in gold and light blue.
The room fragrance sculptures from Mabou can be described as a further development of the classic stick diffuser. Instead of rattan sticks, the brand uses a special, specially developed material that absorbs the fragrance oil and releases it slowly and evenly into the environment. The beautifully shaped and extremely decorative Dunes sculpture is dipped in a delicate beige and is an eye-catcher in any home thanks to its special look. The sculptures are also available in other colors and shapes: Timber in red, Verdure in green, Obsidian in dark grey. Of course, the brand’s classic animal heads and stable room fragrance boxes with minerals are also available. The fragrance differs depending on the version.
The French niche fragrance label Maison Francis Kurkdjian launches a limited Christmas collection every year. The Baies des Lunes scented candle combines notes of musk and wood and has an impressive burn time of around 58 hours. Also available in the Mon beau Sapin version with the scent of fir balsam and as a Trio Candle Collection in a decorative gift set with three mini scented candles (95g). Ideal not only for friends of Maison Francis Kurkdjian, but for anyone who wants a sophisticated, festive and Christmassy atmosphere in their home.
The Merrymaker scented candle by British designer Paul Smith is both colorful and wonderfully festive in a plum-colored jar with a bright scarlet lid. With notes of cardamom, pink pepper, fir balsam, mahogany wood, patchouli and ambergris, the candle lends rooms a cozy and homely ambience and therefore fits perfectly into the current season – visually too. For all friends of decorative scented candles away from the classic, rather muted color trend in the room fragrance segment. Simply makes you happy!
The traditional French candle manufacturer Trudon is also spoiling us with a Christmas line. Under the motto “The Royal Ball”, the Angelo scented candle is inspired by the opulent and magnificent balls at Versailles Palace, the luxury and pomp of the times of Louis XV. This room fragrance is very elegant, noble and absolutely festive, dressed in majestic green and the finest gold. If you prefer a set with two smaller scented candles, you can choose the set from the Astral Collection or the Exclusive Collection and thus have the choice between a red and a green gift box.
The Joyful Atmosphere gift box from Teatro is beautifully designed in white and gold. The tin box is reminiscent of a classic storage container for cookies and cookies, which means that the packaging itself reflects a typical Christmas theme. Inside the tin is a 50 ml room spray with notes of orange, ginger, resin, tonka bean, blackcurrant, fir, patchouli, amber and vanilla, which carries the special scent and warmth of the Christmas season. And next year’s homemade cookies will fit in the tin.
Festive accessories
The Pink Wave incense holder from Pigmentarium has a high-quality finish and an elegant look. With its metallic finish and iridescent effect, Pink Wave is also an aesthetic element and has a highly decorative effect. Created by the Czech porcelain designer Daniel Piršč. Each Holder is unique, as no two are completely alike. Also available in colors other than Blue Wave, Platinum Wave and Green Wave. Pigmentarium also offers matching incense sticks.
The Bon Voyage incense stick set from Pigmentarium matches the incense holder above: this special set from the Czech niche fragrance label includes six different types of fragrance, namely Kâshân Rose, Santal Blues, Moroccan Mint, Jericho Noir, Prague Olibanum and Saffron Absheron. The set contains 10 incense sticks of each variety, so you get a total of 60 sticks, all of which are handmade in Sri Lanka. The perfect gift for all incense fans and anyone who would like to try out the spiritual flair of incense in different variations.
The Room Fragrance Tags from BORNTOSTANDOUT are fragrance cards that are visually inspired by the classic “do not disturb” door signs in hotels. Of course, the fragrance cards can not only be hung on door handles, but also on coat hangers, in closets, the coat rack or on car mirrors. Just about anywhere where fragrance is desired. Cherry lovers will certainly fall back on the Indecent Cherry variant, which has warm, liqueur-like fruit nuances and smells simply delicious. Also available in the varieties DGAF, Narcissist and Trash.
The limited edition Winter Night Kit from L:A BRUKET is perfect for a winter feel-good ritual in the evening to help you relax and unwind.
