I’m so excited to bring you this week’s giveaway. It’s something that I enjoy everyday in my home, and would love for one of you lovely people to also, a Jo Malone Candle.
If you haven’t yet experienced a Jo Malone candle, you’re in for a real treat. You know it’s something special from the moment you have that luxurious black box in your hands. Then you unwrap the ribbon and open it to reveal that iconic cream and black packaging before finally lifting off the chrome lid to that exquisite fragrance that’s coveted around the world… and you haven’t even lit it yet.
Candles are the perfect mood changer in the home and a must for a hot soak in the tub or a romantic dinner. Nothing quite does the job to create an atmosphere like a candle and lately I’ve found myself always lighting mine in the bathroom when we have friends over in the evening. I love how the delicate fragrance gently makes its way around the home without being overpowering and it creates such a warm and inviting ambience to the bathroom for our guests.
Each Jo Malone candle is handmade in the English countryside to exceptional craftsmanship and today you have the opportunity to win the luxurious Wood Sage & Sea Salt home candle. With Mother’s Day coming up, it would make a thoughtful gift and perhaps you might be lucky and win it for mum, or just go ahead and keep it for yourself.

P.S. If you’re ever near a boutique, I recommend popping in for a complimentary hand and arm pampering. One of the lovely staff will give you the most divine massage and at the same time you can create your own personal scent. I experienced it recently and I nearly fell asleep it was so blissful and I will make it a regular treat each time I visit Britomart.

I would burn it in my bathroom while taking a nice long bubble bath.
I would definitely burn this amazing candle in my blanket while I snuggle in bed!

I’ve heard so much about them! Hope I win!
Beside my beautiful bathtub in my beautiful new bathroom. A flickering candle, bubble bath & a peppermint & cinnamon tea-heavenly!
I would love to win this candle for my beautiful mum- she adores Jo Malone and your blog- the candle would find it’s home in our cozy winter snug that overlooks the garden, the central place for cuddles and late night hot chocolates! x
(I have tagged a friend on instgram and pinned several hundred of your gorgeous pins! Haha)
In the busiest room of the house… The kitchen!! For all to enjoy x
oh heavenly! id burn it in our family room for that ambiance and lovely smell…candles are always a treat!
I would place the candle on my round wood coffee table in the lounge to enjoy in the warmth, and enjoy the beautiful scent.
Living room, restful music, good company and glass of wine – bliss!

Ps I have been signed up to your newsletter for ages, follow you on pinterest (i pinned a candle pin) and have just followed you on instagram (although i love looking at instragram i only created an account last week).
Ooooh! I love Jo Malone and have lusted after a candle ever since I first saw her shop in London. I have worn her Vertiver perfume as my signature scent for 15 years – but they are discontuing it so I have been back and forth to the new boutique at Kirkcaldies in Wellington looking for another scent. the wood sage and sea salt is high on my list – but I have also thought it would make a great camdle scent.
It would be marvellous in the bedroom while I am browsing your blog in bed in the evening after a long day of working, then ferrying the kids to activities, then badgering them to do their homework and music practice – i can smell the relaxing scent in my imagination now!
Thanks for the opportunity – your blog is great and i like the new name and makeover. I recently recommended your blog to Wallace Cotton in their Survey :)

If I was the lucky owner of this candle I’d light it and move it around the house for a little bit of luxury in the background no matter what I’m doing. It would really go with the decor of our 1930s house. (Have subscribed to the newsletter, Pinned and commented on Facebook).
I would burn this baby at the dinner table,which just happens to be in the middle if my tiny 90sq ft home… Candlelit dinners shouldn’t just be on an occasion!

I would definitely be keeping this one for myself! I’d love to have a Jo Malone candle in our bedroom, on my dresser out of reach of sticky little hands. I’ve subscribed to your newsletter too x
I would to put the candle in my bedroom where I can smell it while I sleep.
In the lounge by the fire. Sounds like a lovely warming fragrance for winter.
Following and pinned :)
It would be beside the bath tub for me … we put in a new bathroom last October and I still haven’t made time to try the bath out !
In my lounge room, on my fireplace mantel, alongside all my vintage silver finds
All done! I love scented candles in the living room. I know, not very imaginative, but I feel as though a candle always gives off such a warm and welcoming glow when people come over – it’s that extra little bit of magic that make people feel at home.
Having coveted Jo Malone products for such a long time ….. what to do! But I have to say I love the idea of lighting it in the bathroom when friends come for dinner! Would have been perfect last night! What a treat! Really enjoying the new blog make-over too xx
Am becoming addicted to scented candles – the hall table for me too I think x
Hi, I would burn it in our living/kitchen area. It would make me feel happy as I clean up after the family!
This looks lovely. I would put in our hallway :-)
*have liked and tagged a friend in Facebook post x
I’d probably have it in the entry way, where it would waft through the house….but I’d be tempted to bring it into the bathroom while having a lovely, relaxing soak.
Oh, I would have mine on the kitchen table so that it can be smelt all around the house! x
I’d put this in our home office to create a beautiful atmosphere !
In our lounge – perfect for winter book reading!
Oh how wonderful! I often have a scented candle in my studio, particularily when designing. I find the right scent helps focus thoughts and stimulates creative ideas … one of these candles would be amazing, those fragrances are beautiful !
next to the bed…..to create a therapy room vibe
In the kitchen! I love having a candle for every room.
Hi…I would have my Jo Malone candle on the hall table as you enter the house – it is a central spot so the fragrance would drift throughout the house and it would create such a welcoming atmosphere…
In my office….strictly no kids’ allowed so it would be all for me! x
