Candles are a classic and a classy gift. They package, sell, and serve themselves as a thoughtful way to treat someone special, but there's a real art in how you gift a candle.
As someone who has spent years in the luxury fragrance industry, I've become famous for gifting candles. You know the scene in Love Actually with the box and the ribbon and the rose petals (and lavender, and the cinnamon and the cellophane, and the sprig of holly)? That's the way I do my gifts, because a little extra thought can turn one of the best candles into one of the most memorable gifts you can give.
