BOY SMELLS

If you’re searching for attractive, unisex homeware, our luxury scented candles by Boy Smells are on hand to tick both those boxes. The brand was created in 2016, following a candle-making experiment in a Los Angeles kitchen. Co-founders (and real-life partners) Matthew Herman and David Kien sought to make products they'd enjoy using on a daily basis. Today, the range offers compelling scents with an instantly recognisable aesthetic.

Featuring fine fragrances concocted from unexpected ingredients, this collection is anything but ordinary. Boy Smells' signature scent 'Kush' contains cannabis, suede and white musk, with undertones of tulip and amber. To set a homely scene, we recommend looking for a mix of warming spices and woody notes. Florals like jasmine and orange blossom, meanwhile, produce a fresh and inspiring feel – ideal for if you need to be productive. Each style is crafted from a coconut and beeswax blend that burns evenly, providing several hours of use.

Also on Boy Smells’ olfactory menu are scented candle sets. Containing a sample of some of the label's bestsellers, these make smile-worthy gifts for your fashion-forward friends (or just for yourself). Products come in colour-blocked jars with distinctive, pared-back labels. Opt for the brand’s hallmark black-and-pink for excellent Instagrammability – or choose neutral hues that'll work well in a variety of spaces.
