Unisex Candles
January 30th, 2009 § Leave a Comment
I’m very sensitive about smells, probably to a fault, but I always want our home to smell pleasant and not like the persistent scent of eau de dog. So I’m constantly on the lookout for good home fragrances. The catch is trying to find something that both Joe and I can agree on. I tend to like very floral, sweet scents while he’s leans more towards anything that’s the opposite of that. So for all of you struggling to find something that works with both male and female noses (this might only be a problem that we have, so if that’s the case just move on to the next post) here are two candles I think do the trick.
The first, is from Tommy Bahama, it’s called Paradise and combines Pineapple, Cilantro and Vanilla. It’s tropical without smelling like a cab driver’s tacky air freshener. The second, is from Diptyque, it’s called Baies and it smells of black current and Bulgarian rose. I’m obsessed with this fragrance and love the black etched glass that it comes in (the black glass costs $8 more than the regular candle, for many of you that might not be worth it).
Anyway, check them out. They smell wonderful and I think your significant other would be pleased as well (or at least not disgusted)!
