Trying to find a sliver of inspiration to create our own aromatherapeutic escape at home, we turn to one of our friends of BAZAAR, Bella Kuan, for some trusted guidance. A lifestyle queen herself, she has been inspiring us with her number of mouth-salivating recipes on Instagram—but now she shares her current candle favourites that she’s got on heavy rotation.

 

Le Labo Santal 26 Candle

 

The Santal is a cult-classic fragrance, and the candle iteration definitely doesn’t disappoint. Expect the same spicy, musk experience—but this time, let those notes of amber, sandalwood, cocoa, cedar and vanilla take over and elevate your entire space. Despite their store at KLCC being closed for the time being, you can still shop Le Labo through their Home Concierge Service via Whatsapp at 03-2181 0128.

Inspired by Japanese bathing rituals, the Fresh Sake candle perfectly marries natural oils with peach nectar, mandarin and osmanthus to create a lush, sensual scent to uplift a space with its decadent notes. Fresh uses premium, lead-free wicks which is combined with the finest natural waxes and oils to ensure that its candles produce a consistent clean burn that flawlessly throws the scent across the entire room.

One of Jo Malone’s signature scents, the Lime Basil & Mandarin home candle is an inviting fresh zesty fragrance that embodies a cool tropical breeze. Layers of citrus are accompanied by warm peppery basil and aromatic white thyme to bring an unexpected warmth that perfectly compliment the lime.

The Beauty Director at Harper’s BAZAAR Malaysia, Alisha first set her sights on a career in sports journalism before pivoting to beauty during her university years—and she’s stayed in that lane ever since. While her love for sports remains strong (these days, purely from the stands), she’s found her true calling in the beauty and wellness space. Equal parts storyteller and trend spotter, she believes that a good lip combo and a great skincare routine can change more than just your mood.
