I'm notoriously picky about candles. It's not enough to just catch a passing whiff of the scent—I need it to envelop and transport me, without becoming too overwhelming. I know it's a tall order, and, quite frankly, most candles aren't able to strike this precise balance. However, the new Take Your Time candle, a collaborative creation between Nette, an award-winning clean fragrance brand, and cult-favorite haircare line Crown Affair? Consider me delighted.
Housed in a hand-thrown ceramic vessel, this candle is the epitome of a blissful stroll through Martha Stewart's garden on a serene spring day—a blend of yuzu, apple, lemon blossom, tea, and freshwater lotus, all grounded by woody notes like cedar wood, sandalwood, and amber. Subtle enough to sit next to me while I work yet capable of cutting through the dusty aroma of my home office, Take Your Time marries Crown Affair's fresh and sexy Signature Scent with an elegant coziness that is distinctly Nette in nature. The resulting candle launches today, Oct. 5, on Sephora and Monday, Oct. 8 on the Nette and Crown Affair websites.
