Fragrant Holidays from Voluspa
12.09.13
Let Orange County based VOLUSPA set the scene for your holiday experience with its hand-poured, paraben-free candles and custom designed diffusers.
All of their affordable and stylish scented collections make perfect gifts. Its Vermeil Collection, ideal for the winter gift giving, comes in beautiful speckled vermeil silver glass jars and tins, in scents of Chestnut Vetiver (fire roasted chestnuts with amber, earthy votiver and oakmoss), Ponderosa (pine resin, white tabac and accents of fresh lavender and eucalyptus), Clove Pomander (crushed red cloves, pear, bergamot and nutmeg), and a Branche Vermeil (winter spruce).
Another perfect collection for winter is VOLUSPA'S new Crane Flower, a delicate sweet fragrance in a vibrant gilded floral glass jar with a throwback to 70’s decadence.
