A bargain hunter discovered a Home Bargains candle that perfectly mimics the scent of a popular designer fragrance costing hundreds of pounds.
There's nothing quite like the satisfaction of lighting a new scented candle, especially after a good clean. Over time, I've burned through countless candles, particularly during the winter when they add a cosy ambience to the home. While winter usually calls for scents like cinnamon, apple or red berries, I recently found a bargain at Home Bargains that smells just like a sought-after designer fragrance costing hundreds of pounds - and it's perfect for any season.
On a recent visit to the discount store, I was doing my usual sniff test of the scented candles on offer when I came across the Red Sunset candle from the Heaven Scent range by Wax Lyrical. Immediately, I recognised the scent it was inspired by - Baccarat Rouge 540 by Maison Francis Kurkdjian, a cult favourite fragrance for years. But with a price tag of £245 a bottle, I've always resisted the temptation to use it as a room spray, despite its gorgeous smell. Now, there's no need to splurge, as this £3.99 candle is a perfect match for the sweet, spicy and romantic scent, reports Teesside Live. The candle, much like the perfume it's inspired by, emits a delightful unique fragrance with floral and woody notes that's unlike any other candle I've had at home. I chose to place it in my hallway and let it burn for a few hours so it's the first thing you smell when you come in. It didn't take long for the aroma to fill my hallway with a luxurious smell that, while not as potent as the perfume, was still lovely. This particular candle doesn't appear to be available online, so a trip to your local Home Bargains is necessary if you want to get one. Alternatively, Essence80 also offers a Baccarat Rouge-inspired candle for £14.99, or you can opt for a diffuser with a similar fragrance for the same price from Rebel Aromas
