Luxe fashion house Alexander McQueen breaches into the realm of home décor with its first-ever collection of candles. The series is made up of three new scents: Ghost Flower, Pagan Rose, and Savage Bloom. In terms of the inspiration behind the capsule, the brand explains that it is influenced by the “juxtaposition between light and darkness, innovation and tradition, and strength and fragility."
Additionally, each candle has a dark tonal look and takes on the shape of an egg with the help of various perfumers. The scents are each differentiated by the lid color of either silver, dark, or gold. Ghost Flower has a fresh floral scent with an earthy base, Pagan Rose has a wild rose and peat scent, and Savage Bloom smells like tuberose and oud.
