Let's get lit this holiday season

I’m not really one for over-the-top holiday decorations, but I am definitely down with a celebratory candle or two. Since it’s Chanukah, I had to share this lovely luminary from D.S. & Durga, which is known for its exquisite perfumes and home fragrances. (I have their Portable Fireplace Auto Fragrance hanging in my closet, which is probably why I spend so much time in there.)

Not a year goes by that we don’t revisit the actual story behind this festive holiday, and the Prime Chanukah candle captures the essence of the Maccabees’ fight against Antiochus, at least in an olfactory sense. With notes of citron, laurel leaf, cedar of Lebanon, olive and incense, you’ll definitely want it to last more than eight days. This is a limited-edition offering for holiday 2021, so I suggest ordering multiples for yourself and anyone on your gift list!

If you celebrate Christmas, fret not because there’s a candle for you, too. I don’t think I have to explain the Portable Xmas Tree candle, but I’m willing to bet it smells even better than the real thing (while being a lot less messy). If I had a stocking in need of stuffing, I’d be thrilled to get this (or anything else from D.S. & Durga for that matter).
