I got you, boo (holiday gift guide)

Nov 8, 2021

by Roxane Gagnon

It’s almost holiday season and since I must hold back until December to watch Elf, I figured I should make a list of gift ideas to calm myself down a bit and hopefully to help a few people with this wild ride that is holiday shopping.

1- FOREST

Let me start with the newest addition to the Flambette family, Forest, a limited-edition candle. O M G. If you have a family member who always has overly sweet candles lit when you visit them, this is your sign to buy Forest for them. If the person in question asks if it's because you don't like their favorite candle, vanilla-gingerbread-peppermint-mocha, you can explain to them that you like to buy local! Perfect plan.

2- DISCOVERY BOXES

The discovery boxes are perfect to introduce Flambette to a loved one or simply to offer to someone who already loves candles. There are four different boxes and they each contain three candles;

SWEET:

For fans of desserts, sweets and people who eat cake for breakfast. It is also perfect if your house is on the market; sweet smells sell! (Coffee + Toffee, Pineapple + Cilantro, Raspberry + Vanilla)

FRUITY:

For those who would like summer to last 12 months a year and for snowbirds, even if you're simply daydreaming on your balcony. (Pineapple + Cilantro, Peach + Ginger, Citrus + Sage)

WOODSY (MY PERSONAL FAVE!):

Guaranteed to make your home suddenly feel like a log cabin. This trio will also charm all the boyfriends who are not (yet) crazy about candles. (Mint + Rosemary, Fig + Cypress, Eucalyptus + Mint)


CALM:

Because you, unfortunately, can't spend all week meditating, these fragrances will transform your office into a yoga studio and your bathroom into a spa. (Mint + Rosemary, Eucalyptus + Mint, Pear + Green Tea)

3- ACCESSORIES

If you have a friend who already has all the candles/room sprays and you don't know what to buy for them, I highly recommend two of the accessories I use all the time: the wick trimmer and the reusable tote bag. The wick trimmer is super cute and extra practical! No more dirty fingers! My boyfriend would tell you that it is indeed possible to have too many reusable bags, but I'm telling you that it’s not. And, of course, the Flambette reusable tote bag is minimalist, durable and the perfect size!

I also suggest that you do not wait until…December 23rd to order online. Even though I know that Marie and Tania would be the type of people to deliver your order to you in the middle of a snowstorm, snowshoes on and all. You can also consult a list of Flambette retailers here. In case of emergency, there is always the trusty gift card! I hope I was able to help you a little. Happy shopping!
