Sample House and Candle Shop: Scents of Summer

Is there really any better way to unwind from a long day than lighting your favorite candle and maybe pouring a glass of wine? The summer candles at Sample House and Candle Shop at the Shops of Southlake can definitely help you with finding your zen, even if it is just through scent. (As for that glass of wine we mentioned, you may want to head over to Central Market right next door.) Here are some of the great scents of summer that you can find at Sample House and Candle Shop Southlake.

Classic Grapefruit

From the well-known fragrance manufacturer, Nest, comes the exceptional Classic Grapefruit candle. With pink pomelo grapefruit and watery green nuances that are balanced with lily of the valley and coriander blossom, this luxurious candle is quintessentially summer.

Apricot Tea

Another one of our favorites from Nest’s summer candles is the Apricot Tea candle. Rich yet light black tea is combined with English apricot to create the perfect balance of fruity and herbal aromas, with just a hint of bergamot and amber for drama.

Marine

Known for hand-pouring all of their candles, LAFCO New York has released Marine candle, which is the perfect bathroom candle! The scent of this phenomenal summer candle can only be described one way: an ethereal ozonic fragrance that captures the exhilarating scent of fresh sea air.

Water

Also known for their hand-poured candles and a Sample House and Candle Shop favorite, Trapp has their Water candle. With the same ozonic, watery fragrance of the Marine candle, this candle also has a sophisticated and energizing spirit that has a hint of floral.
