Fired Up: Jo Malone meets Farrow & Ball

It's a stormy day here in Massachusetts today, complete with thunder and lightning. It seemed the perfect day to break out the Jo Malone candle that I was sent to review.  Jo Malone, known for their luxurious British lifestyle and fragrance brands and Farrow & Ball, makers of fine paints and wallpapers, have teamed up to produce a limited edition collection of candles.

Five of Jo Malone's scents were matched with coordinating Farrow & Ball colors to create the candles. Grapefruit in a F&B Cream No. 67 holder; Lime Basil & Mandarine in a F&B Breakfast Room Green No. 81 holder; Wild Fig & Cassis in a F&B Pelt No. 254 holder; Pomegranate in a F&B Eating Room Red No 43 holder; and Blue Agava & Cacao in a F&B Oval Room Blue No. 85.  And, they say you can mix and match the scents as well.

I've been burning the Lime Basil & Mandarin candle for several hours and the scent is subtle and not cloying at all. I have allergies to many scents and can rarely burn scented candles, but so far so good on this one!

The candles are available at Farrow & Ball Showrooms and stockists, Jo Malone Boutiques and specialty stores like Bergorfs, Neimans and Saks.

Hope you're having a great weekend! Happy Mother's day to all the Moms!
