  • Candle Brands To Start With!
    #candle #homefragrance
    Starting out in the world of luxury fragrance can be very daunting with so many brands and selections to choose from. The thing is, if we dont start somewhere, we more than likely will never experience what it has to offer. In this conversation, I discuss where I got my start with Luxury home fragrance and give some recommendations on some pretty incredible scents that you may want to experience for yourself. That first step is the most important!
    Thanks for watching!

    I also started with Harlem Candle Co, Lady Day. I love how the scent fills the room. It. has a long burn time and made it worth the money.

    Rakeema I love your channel! My entry to luxury candles was Park London an English candle company. I was visiting Paris and my very stylish Airbnb was stocked with these lovely candles. The boxes and vessels are nice. Since it wasn’t my home I didn’t burn the candles but the cold throw was enticing. I ordered some when I returned home there’s a great variety of scents love them but don’t often see them mentioned.
    I also am currently obsessed with Diptyque Mimosa , Figuer, Baies and 34. I’m a fan of their car fresheners too!

    I started with Diptyque as well. I had read up as much as possible online before visiting their store here in Chicago. I had noted the scents from online that I was interested in smelling firsthand, but when I got to the store, many of the scents I imagined I would like from the online descriptions ended up not being my favorite, and vice versa. Scents I hadn’t originally took note of based on their online description did catch my attention when smelling firsthand. It immediately helped me understand that I should only buy based on the actual experience rather than a description. Thank you for offering your style and good vibes, Rekeema!

    My start was Boy Smells candles. They are a mix of beeswax and coconut wax and burn great. My favorite scents are the st. Al and the Figurare but they have even stronger candles like the hinoke fantome. Im getting the grace jones candle next from them.

    Dude this channel has introduced me into a hobby I didn’t know I needed. I’ve been watching for a couple months now.
    I started with Apotheke where I have gotten a whole lot of their products (Earl Grey Bitters being my favorite). Then I fell for Harlem Candle Co. Speakeasy. I am so into the exploration of scent I got a several Trudon candles. I felt here I was satisfied with my collection. But now I just bought a couple of Charles Farris candles and a Diptyque room spray. I just can’t seem to stop… hahah

    I started out with Diptyque and I enjoy their Pomander, Santal, Ambre, Figuier, Mimosa and Tubereuse candles. I need to try PF Candle Co. I have tried Harlem Candle Co and I'm currently burning through Speakeasy and it's pretty good but not a repeat purchase. I have to try Langston next. I did burn halfway through Savoy and I wasn't into that one unfortunately.

    I really enjoy your videos. Keep up the great work. I’ve found many brands I didn’t know about. I’ve spent a ton of money on candles in the last few weeks based off of your reviews. I’m located in Germany so it’s easier for me to get Trudon candles than it is Harlem Candle Company. On the fashion front if you wear a skin colored undershirt it won’t show when you are wearing a white top shirt.

    @MizJilly Před rokem +12

    I love the Seda France Quince two-wick candle in the porcelain toile container. It is VERY similar to Diptyque Baies, but I would say it is a little smoother and it also costs less for a bigger candle. Having that incredible lidded container with the tassel as keepsake afterward seals it for me.

    • @earphbound720
      @earphbound720 Před rokem +1

      I actually just got this candle at the beginning of the month and I burn it practically every single day and it’s lasted the whole month. I may have to put this one subscription. It’s definitely a keeper if you like Baies.

    Diptyque was my introduction as well. Lys has my heart with 34 close behind. Harlem Candle Company candles are such an experience! You really feel as if you are in Josephine Baker's boudoir or in a dimly light club listening to Langston share his prose. Highly recommend.

    @hey.noah. Před rokem

    For me, Diptyque is hands down my fave brand, but I do buy candles from other brands as well. I know what you mean about Baies scent, I can get a bit tired of it as well, but I use the room spray on my sheets before bed, it's just a wonderful scent to go to bed with along with figuier. But I burn their candles the most, esp Feu de Bois and Chêne. I have burned them for many years. My first candle and perfume from the was in 1996. So I will call myself a loyal fan.
    I do like PF Candle Co as well. Amazing scents, but their candles don't burn well for me, sadly.
    I wish Harlem Candle Co was available here in Denmark.
    Btw what candle are you burning in the background? The vessel looks beautiful x

    • @DetailedDream
      @DetailedDream  Před rokem +1

      I think I may have overused my Baies room spray. I would spray my bed sheets, sofa, and curtains every morning and night lol. I was burning the love scent from Harlem Candle Co. in the 22k gold vessel. Its a very strong rose scent that I wish I could burn more often.

  • @AnthonySkatz
    @AnthonySkatz Před rokem

    I just want to say thank you for introducing me to PF Candle Co (probably from the budget candle vid). I wasn't even really into candles before but now I guess I am!
    Something I wonder though is what to do with all the extra candle holders... you can only have so many pencil holders and trinket cups. Are there any good candle brands that sell refills/wax-only candles? I'm guessing not bc it's not exactly "luxury" but worth asking.
    Thanks for your great videos!

    • @DetailedDream
      @DetailedDream  Před rokem +3

      Thank you so much! If you're in LA but PF has a candle jar return (3 minimum) that go towards a free candle after 10 punches. I recycle if I cant find a use for them. It would be amazing if brands offered refills. L:a Bruket is a great brand that has refills for their candles.
