![]() I lit this beautiful candle in my large master bedroom and started noticing the aroma within 10 minutes of lighting it. It was sultry… and very romantic and sexy. It smelled powdery and fresh to me and I can see why the description calls for burning it in a bedroom. Smelling the wax, it seemed pretty sophisticated and complex. Here is the scent description for Bois de Vanille:ĭeep woodsy notes are joined by sweet vanilla bourbon, lime and lily of the valley. Finished off with a hint of patchouli, this warm fragrance fills the bedroom with a warm, comforting scent. SO PRETTY!!!! Time to light this beautiful candle up. ![]() The wax was off white and sported two centered wicks. It was beautiful and elegant and something you have to visually see to really appreciate. My candle was off white with decorative patterns throughout the bowl. It also included instructions on how to clean out and reuse your gorgeous vessel once finished. Very thorough and nicely done. Once I opened it, the candle was securely nestled inside along with a lovely folded brochure on top listing all their fragrances with pictures of each candle. See picture to the right for visual reference. The color was Ivory with decorative gold scroll work around the box. The box the larger candle came in was equally as beautiful. Mmmm!!!! They also sent a refill candle wrapped in beautiful gray and pink decorative peacock paper in the scent Ambre Tubereuse, also from their Boudoir collection. Bijou sent me an 8oz candle from their Boudoir Collection in the scent Bois de Vanille. Next came unwrapping the box and a smaller candle protected in bubble wrap. Luxurious and powdery vanilla that reminded me of a delicate French perfume. ![]() The fragrance was the first to hit my senses. This is part of the experience I love by the way… the unveiling. When I received my package and opened the shipping box, I’m pretty sure there were more sighs and heart palpitations… I was very-very happy. I had no idea what they were sending me or if I would even like what they did. Usually when I do that, it’s often a better experience than if I picked the candles out myself and as I hoped… this proved true once again. Next came the hard part… deciding what to review and in the end, I literally couldn’t decide. What a lovely idea and what a great gift that would make as well. You can also build your own Bijou candle by picking the color base, size, style and fragrance. I love that idea because these are definitely candles you’ll want to reuse or save. You simply place the refill in the base you already have and wallah! New candle. These are also candles you’ll want to re-purpose, either to use for something in your home or even better… Bijou offers refills for their candles so if you love a specific fragrance or even if you just want to explore the many scents they offer, you can purchase their refills at a fraction of the cost. The vessels are made of an unbreakable resin that reminds me of decorative low sitting vases that hold candy or various trinkets. These are candles you’ll want to proudly showcase at dinner parties or special events – they’re that pretty. Bijou candles are elegant, soft, beautiful and above all… unique. ![]() One word – Exquisite!!! Stunning would be another great word to describe them. It drew me in and kept me browsing all their pages much longer than I expected. Everything my eyes feasted on was pure elegance from the layout of soft pink and gray color tones to the stunning pictures of their candles. The moment I entered their website, it was all sighs and heart palpitations – in a good way. When I received an email from a marketing rep from Bijou asking if we would like to review one of their candles, I immediately went to their website to look around, not knowing anything about the company. – – The shopping experience, the look and feel of each candle… the packaging… the fragrances – and when you receive your order, it’s just as fun unwrapping beautiful layers of scented tissue paper in elegant and colorful boxes as it is burning the candles themselves. Luxury candles are a pampering indulgence every candle lover should experience – even if only on occasion. I don’t even know where to begin other than to say I am completely mesmerized with this company. Bois de Vanille – Bijou Luxury Candle Review ![]()
