To win a collection of eight magnificent artisan candles, simply tell us what scent you enjoy most. Do you fall into the unscented or vanilla camp, or do you prefer a spicy chai blend? We want to know! One person will be randomly selected to win this very scintillating prize.

I'm definitely in the spicy fragrant camp-vanilla, chai, ginger etc. But this is such a great giveaway because it is hard to find natural candles that don't contain beeswax-so I have been going without!
