When it comes to beauty faves top of my list are scented candles and anything miniature. I’ve struck gold then, with these heavenly little darlings from Cochine, a Vietnamese brand available online. Scented with traditional South East Asian notes and essential oils like jasmine, water lily and agarwood, these conjure up a magical, far away paradise like nothing else. Because they’re so travel-friendly I’ll be taking them with me on my country Christmas break – so even if I can’t get away to a tropical beach it will at least smell like one.
