Discover Vanilla Combination Scents
We have found that perfumes featuring ingredients such as vanilla, woods (e.g., sandalwood, oak, patchouli, etc.), and balsams (e.g., amber, labdanum, etc.) are ideal for creating a non-polarizing and yet warm and inviting ambiance.
We highly recommend the following perfumes from our range. The first is Cognac & Vanilla with an aroma worthy of a connoisseur: sherry-aged oak, rich bourbon vanilla, golden cognac, Caribbean patchouli, amber benzoin, and ancient labdanum.
The second would be our Anise & Black Vanilla. This beautifully soft “noir” fragrance opens with top notes of anise and licorice to add mystique to a heart built around the vanilla and almond nuances of heliotrope and powdery violet. Sandalwood and amber add warmth to the foundation.

Choose Diptyque’s “Baies” Candle
With setting the mood for a gathering, a luxury-scented candle can make all the difference. It’s that subtle touch that elevates the ambiance and creates a truly inviting space for your guests. One brand that consistently delivers on both quality and fragrance is Diptyque. Their candles are renowned for their sophisticated scents and elegant presentation.
For a universally appealing fragrance, I’d recommend Diptyque’s “Baies” candle. It’s a beautiful blend of Bulgarian rose and blackcurrant leaves that creates a fresh, slightly fruity, and utterly captivating aroma. It’s not overly sweet or overpowering, making it perfect for any occasion. Plus, the elegant Diptyque jar adds a touch of sophistication to any room. Light a “Baies” candle before your guests arrive, and you’ll instantly set the stage for a warm and memorable gathering.

Opt for Eco Glow Concentration
I highly recommend the luxury-scented candles from our line, made from natural soy wax, which not only burns longer but also releases a pleasant, clean aroma.
For gatherings where you want to create a warm and inviting ambiance, our Eco Glow Concentration candle is a perfect choice. It features a unique blend of rosemary, lemongrass, and mint essential oils, offering a fresh, herbal scent that energizes the space without being overwhelming. The combination is universally appealing, bringing a natural, refreshing vibe to any gathering.

Select Binnowee’s “After the Rain”
Binnowee Candle Company makes a candle called “After the Rain” in the Aussie bush on the edge of the outback. They’re healthy (made with essential oils) and create a grounded, natural ambiance that’s perfect for gatherings.
We all pay attention to what we see and what we hear, but rarely do we think enough about how the other senses create open, positive environments. Every time I’ve used these candles in a gathering, I’ve received remarks and compliments. And the fact that there’s a great story behind them really makes them stand out.
