Charles Farris London has packaged its scented pillar and premium candle in a gift set that speaks to both the eye and the nose. The presentation unfolds like a small ceremony: a navy cardboard box lined in charcoal tissue, tied with a ribbon in deep crimson that pools across cream parchment below. Inside, the two candles nestle in dark velvet, their dark glass cylinders catching the light.
A Winter’s Tale, shown here in both the pillar and the poured candle, carries cinnamon, cloves and orange zest, a combination that conjures candlelit rooms and spiced wine. The fragrance belongs to the kind of winter evening one deliberately creates, warm and slightly sweet, the sort of scent that lingers in fabric and memory both. The scented pillar, a longer burning format, extends that story across days and weeks. The candle itself, compact and precisely poured, offers the flicker and ceremony of flame.
These gift sets draw from Charles Farris London’s bestselling winter fragrances, and for those who prefer botanical notes, the collection includes Garden of Eden. The restraint of the packaging echoes the restraint of the brand itself: navy, crimson, cream and the warm tones of the candles themselves, no pattern, no excess. Antique paper frames the contents, scissors and twine rest nearby as props, suggesting a moment of unhurried wrapping and intention.
The boxes are ready now for the season, available directly from Charles Farris London.
