The most luxurious candles to deck your home with, from Aesop Aromatique to Loewe Home Scents

The new Aesop Aromatique Candle range comprises a trio of captivating scents: Aganice, Callippus and Ptolemy. Each bearing the name of astronomers of yore and inspired by ancient mythologies, the candles' beguiling nature are made for a perfect repose. Our favourite is Ptolemy—a resinous, earthy blend of cedar, cypress and vetiver reminiscent of Japanese forests. All candles are made with vegan-friendly ingredients and can burn for up to 65 hours.

Developed by in-house perfumer Nuria Cruelles, the collection's candles are made of natural vegetable wax and poured into fluted ceramic containers inspired by fifth century Greek drinking vessels (perfect for upcycling).
