12 Days of Holiday Giveaways: Day 11 with Voluspa


My name is Carol and I have an addiction to Scented Candles.
They add an element of romantic ambiance and warmth to any room, not to mention the beautiful essence that fills the air.
I have learned though that with candles, you definitely get what you pay for.

A friend of mine from California sent me this delicious set of Voluspa Candles and that is when my impassioned love affair with Voluspa began.


These yummy scents evoke a luxurious, soft whiff, one that is more like a luxurious perfume.  The great thing is that unlike other strong scented candles, they aren't overpowering to the point where you feel nauseous after sniffing for too long.
They also come in the prettiest packaging and keepsake containers.

Voluspa is a SoCal based company that makes the most decadent candles and fragrances for the home.  The best part about Volupsa, is that their packaging and design is just as luxurious as their products.  Everything about this brand screams luxurious and charming. 
Each of their collections has a slightly different look and feel, while keeping the brand as a whole cohesive and elegant.
My favourite collection would definitely have to be their Maison Blanc Collection with a family of dainty, delicate and delightful aromas.

2 Wick 11 oz Metallo Candle - Saijo Persimmon {ARV $16} 

One of my favourite's is the Saijo Persimmon scent.
Japanese saijo persimmon is considered to be the finest gourmet variety, layered with juicy peach and red currant in a coconut blend.

11 oz Laguna (Maison Blanc) 2 wick  Metallo candle

Another definite must-have from the Maison Blanc Collection is Laguna.
Laguna makes me feel like I'm relaxing on the velvet sand next to dazzling azure seas. 
With a fresh blend of California verbena and white freesia, this scent will be sure to induce light and breezy feelings. 
All 11oz candles have a burning time of approximately 50 hours.


Classic 12 oz Maison Candle - Macaron {ARV $27}

One of their newest scents takes me back to my home away from home, land of romance, art and the best desserts... Paris, of course!
One of my favored sweet and crunchy delicacies from Paris, Macarons, comes to life in the Voluspa Macaron candle.
Delicious and colorful, the fame macarons de Paris are beloved for their color as they are for their gourmet flavors.

All  hand poured luxury Voluspa candle are made with Natural Apricot & Coconut wax.

The Classic Jar Candle is housed in an elegant white glass container that will blend with most decors and can be recycled as a vase or pencil cup after the candle is finished burning. However, you'll have to wait approximately 100 hours as it has quite the extended burn time.

I cannot express enough how much I love these candles, especially the new Macaron candle! Perfect with a good read, a glass of wine and some macarons of course!
