For the host of Christmas lunch
Sweet Surrender
Every Australian Christmas has a little nostalgia in it: the gingerbread, maple, brown sugar, even when it is 35 degrees outside. Sweet Surrender is that feeling in a candle. Ginger, lemon and grapefruit lift the top, and gingerbread, maple, brown sugar and vanilla bean carry it through. Spicy, sweet and bright enough that it does not feel out of place on a warm afternoon.
Sweet Surrender Candle or Sweet Surrender Reed Diffuser, A$79 (A$59.25 with SCENTSEASON).
For the friend with a beach house
Thé Vert Oriental
Green tea, bergamot and yuzu are made for summer. Jasmine, cardamom, nutmeg and cedar add some grown-up depth, so the scent feels crisp rather than simple. It is the one to give someone who likes a house that feels open, airy and quietly put together, with the doors propped open and a breeze moving through.
Shop Thé Vert Oriental, A$79 (A$59.25 with SCENTSEASON), in a candle or reed diffuser. Also available as a room spray or fragrance diffusion oil.
For anyone who has earned a slower morning
Thread Count
Fresh linen, rosemary and a soft rose and raspberry note sitting over clary sage. Thread Count smells like sheets that have dried in the sun, which makes it a lovely gift for the person whose year has been relentless and whose holiday starts the moment the last email goes out.
Shop Thread Count, A$79 (A$59.25 with SCENTSEASON), in a candle or reed diffuser.
For the friend with the low lamps and long dinners
Magnetic and Haze
Not every summer evening is bright and breezy. Some are late, warm and unhurried, and these two suit them. Magnetic is orris and oud with patchouli flower, olibanum, warm resins and tonka: intimate, a little dark, hard to ignore. Haze is softer and creamier, with leather and cedar, smoke and amber, vanilla milk and heliotrope. Choose Magnetic for the person who likes a bit of drama, and Haze for the person who likes to stay put.
Shop Magnetic and Haze, A$79 each (A$59.25 with SCENTSEASON), in a candle or reed diffuser.
For the person who has everything
The Aromax and 30ml Fragrance Oil
Our nebulising diffuser, finished in anodised aluminium and available in silver, gold, black and red. Scent output is adjustable, it is whisper quiet, and a single unit covers an apartment, family home or a small office. Nebulising diffusion releases fragrance without heat, so it is a good fit for the warmer months, when a candle can feel like too much. Pair with a couple 30ml fragrance oils for diffusion for the ultimate gift.
Aromax Diffuser, A$495 (A$371.25 with SCENTSEASON), 30ml Fragrances, A$89 (A$66.75 with SCENTSEASON)
