Devine by name, divine by nature

When an interiors staging expert and a Cork-based candle making specialist team up, you know the results will be beautiful.

Irish Italian Natasha Rocca Devine has announces a second collaboration with La Bougie.

It's the second from The Secret Garden collection and follows on from the success of her first candle, which sold out earlier this year.

In this second candle, the mood-lifting scent with top notes of bergamot and tea rose encourages relaxation.

The citrus notes initiate memories of summer travel, particularly important at this time, while the supporting notes of cedarwood and vetiver, ensure when combined to bring the outdoors indoors and create your own secret garden.

Natasha said: “Expanding The Secret Garden candle collection, and working with the incredibly talented perfumer, Lucy Hagerty of La Bougie candles, along with Barry McCall and all the Irish-based teams involved, has really been a dream come true for me.

“Launching a new fragrance during lockdown was a challenge, but the success of the first candle has been such a positive experience for me in terms of realising my dream to design home accessories and fragrances, that one candle has now turned into a collection!”

Speaking about the candle, Lucy said: “Natasha explained what she had in mind in terms of ingredients and her inspiration from her love of summer travel, and we had multiple consultations and trials on scents that would suit.”

The candle is available to pre-order from Natasha’s website theinteriorsnrd.com and is €30 for a 30ml glass. The burn time is about 50 hours and launches soon.
