As much as we all love wandering, the reality of life is that we spend much of our time at home. Why not infuse our homes with scents that are reminiscent of our travels? Marjorie Gubelmann has done that for us when creating her line of candles for Vie Luxe’s Voyage Collection.
The line currently has ten different scented candles created to remind us of some of our favorite places:
Capri via Fotopedia |
Capri with Italian bergamot, fresh lemon blossoms, rich cypress & citrus zest…
Buenos Aires with wild jasmine flowers, exotic ceibo petals, ombu leaves & white pepper…
Cote D’Azur with white lily, water hyacinth, freesia, pink rose & French verbena…
Palm Beach via Jetsetter |
Palm Beach with night blooming jasmine, frangipani, orange blossom, & ylang ylang…
Istanbul with exotic Turkish tea, amber, blue iris & black orchid…
Maldives with delicate heliotrope, ceylon teas & lush green palm leaves…
Sardinia with white gardenia, karo karounde blossoms, crisp amaryllis & Mediterranean cypress leaves…
Tuileries/Paris via Fotopedia |
Tuileries with White tuberose, rare jasmine, lavender buds & geranium petals…
St. Barth’s with oceanic nuances blended with black currant, green palm & white jasmine…
And, St. Moritz with bitter orange peel, Moroccan clove & mulling spices.
Finally, don’t forget to enter the giveaway!

Fun giveaway!! Love the candle line…I have only smelled the Capri and it was heavenly..love the inspiration behind the line. So many wonderful places. I guess the next best thing to being is for your home to smell like you are there:)

Hi Sandy!
Your photos here of Capri remind me of the wonderful opportunity I had to be in Cinqua Terra about 11 years ago now. What a romantic place to dream. LOVE IT! Anita
