It feels weird to admit that I’m enamored with a candle, but I am really, really enamored with this one from NEST Fragrances.
It’s called Opulence, by Ken Downing, and it’s a whopping $40, which is a lot for a candle, but it smells almost supernaturally good — like autumn leaves, fireplaces, snuggly cable-knit sweaters and long hugs from handsome boys.
I mean now, come on, doesn’t that sound good? 🙂
It’s available now at Neiman Marcus stores and neimanmarcus.com.
“Our own Ken Downing, together with NEST Fragrances, developed this exotic fragrance that layers the essences of black orchid, sandalwood and amber against a sumptuous backdrop of Malaysian patchouli leaf, Australian sandalwood and hints of Mirabelle plum.”
Even Tabs loves Opulence…

Wow – I just learned about this awesome brand within the last 2 weeks and am soooo enjoying their Moss & Mint body wash and hand soap and here’s Nest on MBB ! Yes, the products are very pricey, but the fragrance payoff is huge, and the scents are beautiful and unique. I’m currently waiting for my latest online purchase – Nest’s Cleopatra perfume and body lotion, which has a grapefruit and cucumber essence, and I can’t wait to receive my early holiday present to myself !

You may have completely sold me on this candle. And the jar is so gorgeous.

I love scented candles! Does this one smell super perfumey, though? I worry about that when it comes to the more expensive candles.
(PS: I totally link to you in my blog post today. After all, you were the inspiration.)
