It may still feel like winter here in New York but my apartment smells like spring now thanks to my new Estee Lauder Pleasures Limited Edition Artist Candle designed by renowned textile designer Kazumi Yoshida of Clarence House. It looks just as good as it smells too and not surprisingly since Yoshida has been creating the most original and luxurious fabrics for over 25 years. I think it would make a perfect gift for any woman who wears Pleasures or for Mother’s Day. And after the candle burns down, it will make an even chicer pencil holder than the Diptyque glass jars!
