It is difficult to find candles that you want to burn during a dinner party. They are often over scented and conflict with the culinary smells of garlic and onions or a roast. I recently came across these candles on the 5th floor (great table and holiday decorations) at Bergdorf & Goodman and was amazed at how fresh and real the scents were. My favorites are Tomate (Tomato), Cèdre (Cedar-nice for the holidays), Ficus Carica (Fig) and Ocymum Basilicum (Basil). They are made by Carrière Frères Industries founded in 1884, by two brothers fond of flora and keepers of wax craftsmanship from the XVIII century . This is part of their new line of scented candles – CIRE VÉGÉTALE inspired by exotic scents and indigenous essential oils. They are also a great hostess gift for the holidays.
