Lola Rose, one of the UK's leading jewellery
labels, have brought out a beautiful range of soya candles. Now if you look at their pink and fluffy website, you might wonder why I, a man, would be perusing such a product page, but I have you know that my intentions are sound. This would make a brilliant little gift for your wife, girlfriend or other suitable person of pink and fluffy nature. Apart from being funky and pretty, this candle is kind to the environment as it is made from renewable soy, and is kind to your environment since it doesn’t emit carcinogens.

Now here’s the girly bit from its makers who say its fragrance is soft and romantic with notes of orchid, violets, vanilla and white musk. The top notes of oriental lilies add a fresh sparkle to the fragrance and the base notes are smooth and velvety. I can prove I’m a man, since I couldn’t have written anything like that in a million years. Available online from the Lola Rose website for £55.
