Scenter Stage – Orla Kiely Rhubarb and Earl Grey Home Fragrances

Everyone recognizes the Classic Stem print from Orla Kiely a mile away. While I always spot totes, umbrellas, and even their stationary, I had no idea this London based designer also makes incredible home fragrances. Since our house has recently become a full on construction site as we undergo an overhaul, the recent delivery from the mind-reading PR team at Orla Kiely made us feel right ‘at home’. The Earl Grey candle and Rhubarb reed diffuser are as stylish as they are delicious. #preSCENTable

In my view one can never have enough candles. Or books. Unless, of course, you have so many of both that you come across like you’re into the occult, which is creepy. They also make my list of favorite gifts both to give and to receive. The Orla Kiely Early Grey candle is ultra chic in its box, which even includes a coaster-like heat protection mat. Both the box and the jar itself are painted with their signature Acorn pattern. #repreSCENT

As an avid tea drinker and an earl grey fan, I find this recent addition to Orla Kiely’s home scent collection spot on. The blend of bergamot citrus notes with the smokiness of black tea create warmth that is both soothing and exhilarating. It’s a neutral yet distinct scent that will please even the most hardcore decafficionados. Made of 100% vegetable wax with a pure cotton wick, it burns like a dream and this dream resembles a pleasant, mild coma that lasts up to fifty hours. #esSCENTially

Reed diffusers are the most genius invention, especially for people like me who often leave the house with a candle burning. They also make a perfect addition to every guest bedroom before company arrives. Orla Kiely’s new Rhubarb scent? I’m keeping that for myself. Sorry, guests. The outer box and glass vase decorated with the Climbing Daisy pattern make a statement before you take a single breath. #aSCENTive

Rhubarb by Orla Kiely is tart and juicy with sharp notes of Sicilian lemon and earthy stalks of fresh fruit. It’s incredibly uplifting and reminiscent of the first outdoor farmers market of the season. Whether you live in a mid-century modern, a loft, or a studio apartment, the bottle adds both a fab scent and style. Simply uncork and dip the reed sticks into the bottle. I flip them over every couple of weeks to freshen up the scent and always keep them away from the heat and flame. #SCENTinel

    Love love love the sound of this! I am obsessed with home fragrances at the moment. I have a rather delightful Linea Lemongrass and Ginger diffuser in my bathroom that everyone talks about who go in there but sadly the spectacular fusion of those two scents are running out, as they do, so might see if I can find these two. Is it weird that I can already smell it? 😉

      OMG Lemongrass & Ginger sounds like a great combo! Makes me think of Wasabi & Pear by NEST for some reason lol. I am obsessed with the Earl Grey scent!! The Rhubarb is so nice and fresh and really makes me miss these edible things that have a 3 week life span during the summer! At least this diffuser will last much longer! And no, not weird at all! 😉
