From the fragrance that will help you and your boo reignite the spark from your first weekend getaway to the foaming body wash that will help you soak all of your problems away, read on for the woodsy products that will transform your home into your own private winter hideaway.
Diptyque Citrouille Pumpkin Candle
Diptyque has a way of making its products feel truly special and this pumpkin-inspired candle is no exception. Burn it during a cold and especially rainy day to re-create the smell of a fresh pumpkin pie straight out the oven.
The Ritual of Hammam Foaming Shower Gel
Refreshing eucalyptus meets revitalising rosemary in this aromatic shower gel from Rituals. Use it to unwind after a long day (the gel formula works into a nice foamy lather), or take it one step further by topping it off with a spritz of Rituals Hair & Body Mist in the same scent.
Clean Reserve Terra Woods Eau de Parfum
This fragrance features a texture woods base, topped with musks and sweet notes of coconut and Madagascar vanilla. It energises and soothes senses at the same time. You can layer it with other fragrances from the Clean Reserve collection, such as Sueded Oud or Velvet Flora, to add even more depth.
Nest Birchwood Pine Scented Candle
The experts at Nest managed to capture the scent of an entire season — Winter — in this one small candle (also available in larger sizes). Infused with notes of fir balsam, amber, rich musk, birchwood, and white pine, the rich scent is reminiscent of a freshly cut tree with wood burning behind it. Its gold-accented glass also adds an extra touch of glow when lit and goes with nearly every decor.
Narciso Rodriguez for Her Eau de Toilette
This fragrance from Narciso Rodriguez combines deeper notes, such as tactile woods, tactile musk, and vetiver with fruity hints of orange blossom, honey flower, and vanilla. The result is a sophisticated yet still slightly girlie scent that will keep everyone guessing. Narciso Rodriguez for Her Eau de Toilette (£71)
The Body Shop Bath Spiced Orange Body Butter
If you're just easing into wintry scents, the woodsy and whimsical Spiced Orange collection from The Body Shop is a good place to start. Not only does this lightweight lotion hit all the right notes (among them orange, vanilla, and cinnamon), but it also contains Community Fair Trade shea butter sourced from Ghana. This concoction leaves skin feeling super moisturised — a must for the season.
Maison Margiela Replica by the Fireplace
This fragrance, designed for both men and women, is described on the bottle as "burning wood and chestnut." Break that down and it's a complex blend of gaiac wood oil, chestnut accord, pink pepper, and Peru balsam (among other notes). It's for those who really want the fireplace scent to follow them outside of the living room.
Kiehl’s Musk Eau de Toilette Spray
While this beloved spray from Kiehl's reads more musky than woodsy, it's still one of those quintessentially sensual scents that long Winters were made for. Spray the rich blend of white patchouli, musk, tonka nut, and orange blossom (the list of notes goes on) onto your skin — or even your sheets — to transport yourself to a more rugged yet still cosy place.
