Candles Part 8

Best Gift for Your Boss or Mother-In-Law: Votivo. Like Voluspa, these are very beautiful, elegant candles. They feature the combination of gorgeous packaging and great candles. They’re not, however, cheap. We’ve just learned their Oprah’s favorite. So I guess that means you know that they’re good. Or that she liked them, her peeps called the company and they offered to give one of their $25 votives to each of her audience members on her “Favorite Things” show. Oh. Look what we found. A quote "Nothing's better for some instant ambience than scented candles. They're all gorgeous, but Rain is my favorite scent." — Oprah. In Style Magazine, March 2000:
"These days, aromatic candles are a dime a dozen. What sets Votivo candles apart are their exotic, supremely potent scents, which are developed by perfumer's and added to long-lasting, high quality paraffin. Choose from 19 Votivo candle scents including: Rain and Red Currant (the choice of Madonna, Tori Spelling, and Bruce Willis)." Their Red Currant candle is yummy. We’ve never bought any of these but have been very grateful to receive them as gifts. Fine wax combines with fine fragrance. They don’t have their own website, but a variety of high-end sites sell them, Google’em.
