Scents are reminiscent of the Amalfi Coast, Bermuda and Hawaii. Dune Jewelry & Co. has launched its new Experiential candles, designed to transport anyone on a luxury vacation right from the comfort of their home. The scents are reminiscent of the chic Amalfi Coast, the sandy shores of Bermuda and the flowers of Hawaii. Holly Daniels Christensen, Dune founder and CEO, says spending so much time at home during quarantine had her cooking more and dreaming of coastal travel destinations and far-off places. “I have two young daughters, and we started having these family theme nights where we cooked meals from specific regions and talked about the landscape and what made that particular place special. One night as I was lighting a candle after we pretended we were eating dinner in Positano, Italy — the idea hit me. Why not create a fragrance that can transport you?” Now in addition to Dune’s jewelry containing sand and elements from a favorite destination, the candle scent encompasses all that destination has to offer. “We worked with one of the most exclusive fragrance houses in the world to carefully develop each scent. Every fragrance is rich and complex without being overwhelming,” says Christensen. “The layers all come together perfectly to create a very luxurious experience that will take you straight to Bermuda, Hawaii or the Amalfi Coast without ever leaving your home.” The three new scents are:
Dune candles are made with 100% cotton wicks. Hand-poured in Laguna Beach, California, using a proprietary soy wax blend, the candles are also sustainable, ecologically sound and contain no pesticides, phthalates, parabens or sulfates. Seven more scents will be launching soon, including Cape Cod, the Outer Banks, and Florida Keys. |
