La Prouveresse scented candle by Diptyque Paris
La Prouveresse is the name of a lane that Yves Coueslant would take when he stayed in his house near Grasse. A path lined with fig and cypress trees, aromatic herbs and crunchy leaves. It comes in a matt porcelain pot crafted entirely by hand using the “terre mêlée” (mixed clay) technique, meaning every piece is unique.
Macmillan Rose Geranium Bath Essence by Floris London
The characteristic notes of geranium are enhanced by fresh citrus nuances and a hint of rose. A simple woody base note accord of cedarwood is all that is needed to complete this clean cut classic.
Floris presents a limited release of its now iconic Rose Geranium Bath Essence in aid of the charity Macmillan. Packaged within a specially designed sleeve illustrated by Marta Spendowska commissioned especially for the project, this 50ml bath essence retails for €72 of which €48 will be given to Macmillan. Just a few drops of this exhilarating essence in any bath will fill the room with a warm, relaxing aroma that has been filling bathrooms since it was conceived by Floris in 1890. Aficionados have included Marilyn Monroe.
Over the past 24 months the Floris team and wider business has been affected deeply by cancer, and as a small family business, felt the impact that this disease has, both to those inflicted with it, but also to those around them who love and care for them.
Macmillan has always promoted wellbeing and the importance of taking time for yourself, not just for the person afflicted with cancer, but for the carers, partners, friends and loved ones.
