Fab Find of The Week: NEOM Precious candles

At a time when we’re all thinking about minimising waste, it’s worth pointing out that pretty much any candle ‘vessel’ can be upcycled – into a pen jar, a vase, somewhere to store your cotton buds.

But this new trio of two-wick candles from natural candle supremos NEOM has been specifically designed with that in mind – and we’re loving it. Created from ceramic, with lids – also useful for keeping dust off your scented candle, while in use – they positively beg to be given a new life, once your candle has flickered its last.

So far, three fragrances are available in this format. The pale blue candle swirls with ylang ylang, tonka and vetiver; the pale pink is an enlivening blend of grapefruit, eucalyptus and mandarin; and the pale grey-tone candle is designed to calm, via notes of bergamot and black pepper.

Absolutely fabulous gifts, we think (and a little plea to NEOM: would you consider refills, in future…?)
