Mimosa

(photo by me)

I am beyond addicted to diptyque's mimosa candle. Believe me when I say, the aroma that fills my bedroom whenever I light it, is simply intoxicating. I usually like to light a candle whilst reading a great book, but I found that the smell of mimosa is SO good that it can be quite distracting, causing me to frequently pause every few pages to inhale & admire. Byredo's Bibliotheque is another favourite of mine, as well.  Is there a specific candle out there that your senses have completely fall victim to? I'd love to hear and give a few other candles a try!

xoxo, Ally

  3. To be honest, I don't really light candles. Which I find odd because I love them, the flickering light and the intense aroma - love. I need to buy some so I can use whilst reading too!

  6. I love Diptyque too! If only it wasn't so pricey. But my fave from them is Tuberose. Warm Vanilla Sugar from Bath & Body Works is also amazing.

  25. Hola! I was interested to know if setting up a blog site such your own: http:

    do for inexperienced people? I've been wanting to develop my own website for a while now but have been turned off mainly because I've always assumed
    it demanded tons of work. What do you think? Regards

  29. Today, I went to the beach with my kids. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year
    old daughter and said "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear." She placed the shell to her
    ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her
    ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is entirely
    off topic but I had to tell someone!
