Angela Flanders has me very torn at the minute. Our recent sojourn to her shop in East London left my nose not really knowing what to do with itself. The perfumes are just so strong, I'm not sure how you'd actually choose one you'd like - everything smells great, but all of the different scents all mingle together. Leaving my nose very confused. But then there's the candles.And these truly are amazing. Their figue noir candle might just be heaven with a wick sticking out of it. Utterly gorgeous. A bit Christmassy, and very comforting indeed. And despite me not being a huge fan of rose scented things, their rose poudree candle is different. They've magically made it smell of rose powder, so your bedroom will smell like a fancy French boudoir. Wow.
The candles aren't cheap. They're between £30 and £35 each. But, they've got 40 hours of burn time, and that's going to last you a very long time. The perfume is strong enough to linger for hours, so these will actually work out great value for money if you're willing in invest. Besides, they smell gorgeous.
If you don't want to navigate through Angela Flanders' website (it's really not great) then head over to 96 Columbia Road and have a sniff yourself.
