It's a party! Sweets, balloons, glitter, confetti, cakes... All the ingredients for a great day. Celebrating a birthday is always a good opportunity to offer a scented candle. It's a gift idea that will allow you to perfume and decorate your home gently and create a beautiful olfactory atmosphere. Thanks to it, he/she will be able to relax, spend a nice evening in the light of a candle and redecorate... Because what could be better than a scented atmosphere in his/her house/apartment, to welcome you back in the evening? It is also the ideal solution to take care of yourself and to take time for yourself. By giving a birthday candle, you are offering a moment of well-being to that person close to you.

But the hardest part is choosing. How can you be sure of your gift when you don't really know the person's tastes? In this guide, we'll help you find the perfect scent for a woman's or a man's birthday. You have two ways to choose the scent of your little candle:

You already know the person's tastes You don't know them and in this case we advise you to turn to original seasonal scents

Choosing a seasonal scent is a good way to find the right scent. By doing so, you won't be "out of place" and it will be easy to use the decorative candle in your home. For example, in winter, turn to gourmand scents, such as Amande Gourmande, a slightly sweet and vanilla cake scent (a real birthday cake scent!). This will create a warm and cosy atmosphere throughout the burn. Or to typical Christmas scents like Sapin Baumier. In spring, we want lighter and more flowery scents, such as Orange Blossom or African Acacia. In summer, there are original, creative, refreshing and aromatic fragrances, such as Maquis Sauvage and Menthe Basilic. And when autumn comes and its long, cold, rainy evenings, we bring out the cosy fragrances like Honeyed Tobacco and Papyrus Incense.

You can also turn to our best sellers, all seasons combined. This is the case, for example, with Acacia d'Afrique. A heady, floral fragrance with a very chic feel. It is a warm scent that will appeal to both men and women as it is very mixed. For a fresher scent, Mint Basil. With its aromatic notes, this is a very popular fragrance for its green and deodorizing side. Indeed, mint is known for its ability to mask bad smells. We therefore recommend this large candle for kitchens or for people who smoke and/or have pets.

If you are giving your deco candle to a woman, we also offer more feminine scents, such as Rose Patchouli. The marriage of a delicate flower and oriental notes, with patchouli. A feminine and powerful scent that will reconcile you with the smell of roses. Unless you prefer Mûre Poudrée to create a boudoir atmosphere. A fragrance with musk notes that will comfort you in the bedroom.

For men, our more atypical fragrances should convince them. For example, Whisky Marin, our original iodized fragrance, a reminder of the Scottish moors we love so much. Or the power of Honeyed Tobacco with its smoky notes, softened by the sweetness of honey.

So here are some ideas for your birthday candle. If you want to give home fragrance in other forms, we also offer rattan stem perfume diffusers and Apothecary candles with essential oils. The former is a decorative object that allows the continuous diffusion of perfume. The latter are candles to meet your daily needs.

But offering a La Belle Mèche candle also means offering the quality of a French candle. Indeed, our decorative candles are 100% made in France, from the wax to the packaging. Our perfume is designed in Grasse, by our partner perfumers, who create the most beautiful combinations of ingredients for us. This fragrance is then mixed with our non-GMO, paraffin-free soy wax by our wax maker. The resulting molten wax mixture is poured into clear glass containers with a lead-free cotton wick. Once the vegetable wax has dried, the candle is ready. It will then be labelled and packed in a case printed in France. All you have to do is light the flame of the candle and have a wonderful birthday.

We are also committed to a healthier planet, with the 1% for the planet movement. Each year, we donate 1% of our turnover to support associations that fight to protect the environment in the field. This is a way for us to go beyond our eco-responsible commitments on our products, to go even further.

Now all that remains is to light a candle and wish him a Happy Birthday!
