Lumira Tuscan Fig and Sirocco Candle Review

Lumira Tuscan Fig and Sirocco Candle Review

Home fragrances are something I have always been pretty much into and for me, relating scents to the moments is part of my everyday life. Same is with the weather and seasons, occasions and relaxations – I always like a scent complimenting that moment. I came across Lumira almost a year ago and finally able to share with you guys about the brand and the candles – ‘Lumira Tuscan Fig and Sirocco Candle' I have been enjoying from the brand. I know there was so much interest on the candle and the brand when I first posted about it on my Instagram. Lumira fragrances are luxurious with the high quality of their ingredients, with attention to each detail on the scent as well as the packaging, most importantly, the ambiance they create.

Lumira Tuscan Fig and Sirocco Candle

I will first start with some introduction to the brand. Lumira was founded by Almira Armstrong in 2013. The scents are infused with the highest quality of fine fragrance oils reminiscent of places both near and far. The collection of Lumira's luxury lifestyle essentials are a celebration of beautiful scent, sophisticated design and the spirit of travel.  The power of fragrance to trigger the senses, a memory, and even a person's emotional state is the inspirations that led to the creation of the Lumira brand.

Throughout the ages, the power of scent has been harnessed to inspire, to comfort, to transport, and to enliven the spirit. A nostalgic or exotic fragrance possesses the unique ability to instantly engage our imagination and stir our sensory memory, invoking the warmth and familiarity of home, or allowing us to momentarily transcend everyday life.'

Each candle from the brand is handcrafted using all-natural soy wax, cotton wicks, and the finest essential and fragrance oils that have been hand-picked by a collection of world-renowned perfumers. The burn time for both the candles is around 80 hours.

It is inspired by the rustic, sun-scorched hills of Tuscany intertwined with gnarled vines and olive groves, and the solitary rows of fig trees, each embellished with succulent purple and green fruits. This candle is perfect to refresh and warm any space.

Lumira Tuscan Fig and Sirocco Candle

Inspired by American minimalist Ellsworth Kelly, Sirocco is part of the exclusive Collezione Bianca, a private luxury scented candle collection of three fragrances, carefully created with the purpose that each individual fragrance can be burnt at a specific time of the day. Collezione Bianca is a tribute to the beauty, simplicity, and purity of Kelly’s relief works, combined with an exploration in premium, exotic fragrances to enhance our daily rituals with a sense of style and ceremony. The Collezione Bianca candles are handcrafted in Australia and housed in the hand-made glass with cotton wicks.

‘Below are some recommendations by the brand to care and ensure the longevity of Lumira candle:

  • To ensure an even and smoke-free burn, the wick should be trimmed to a length of 5mm each time before lighting. Candles should never be left burning unattended and discontinue when 10mm of wax remains to prevent cracking.
  • In order to get the most out of your LUMIRA candle, burn it until the entire surface of the candle melts. Wax has ‘memory’ so it will follow the first burn so make sure not to extinguish the candle until the whole surface has melted.
  • To preserve the fragrance, do not burn your candle for more than four hours at a time and turn the wick into the wax to extinguish so that there is no smoke created.
  • Do not leave a candle burning unattended. Keep away from children, curtains, and pets.
  • Always protect the table or surface on which the candle rests.'

Lumira I have been really enjoying the candles and the warmth they bring to my home and ambiance. There are travel versions also available for all the scents which are perfect for taking your favorite scents along when traveling or if you want to try the scent. As someone who relates scents with memories, I love the scents and they are both perfect to have. The scents are not too strong or something that might be uncomfortable for family and kids around. The candles do exude luxury whiles providing comfort and escapism to all that encounter their blissful fragrance.

Lumira candles are available at atelierlumira.com, Selfridges (UK),  and Barneys (USA).
