Tonight we’re enjoying the Le Cherche Midi 05 candle.
“The Le Cherche Midi 05 candle invites you to an afternoon garden party where lovely dresses graze a fresh cut lawn, crisp white linens cover the tables, and the shade of a majestic pine cools the air.”
Well said! The linen really comes through to create a soapy and fresh scent as it mixes gracefully with baby fresh grass. I love the pine accent to ground the scent. This is a delicate scent that would work well with company. Le Cherche Midi candles are the best indulgent luxury! If you’ve tried this fragrance, let us know what you think.

More about le cherche midi 05
If you are enjoying le cherche midi 05, a few simple habits help you get the most from it.
- Trim the wick to about a quarter of an inch before every burn so the flame stays steady and clean.
- On the first burn, let the wax melt all the way to the edges of the container to help prevent tunneling.
- Keep the candle away from drafts, fans and anything flammable, and never leave a burning candle unattended.
- Stop burning when about half an inch of wax is left in the container, and let it cool fully before relighting.

A quick scent guide
Scent is personal. A fragrance that feels cozy to one person can feel heavy to another, so use our notes as a starting point and trust your own nose.
Give a scent time. The first impression is not always the whole story, because fragrance notes open up and settle as a candle warms or a diffuser works.
Layering is a fun way to personalize a room. Pairing two scents that share a note, such as a citrus with a green leaf, can create something that feels like yours.
Fragrance families help you shop. Floral, fruity, woody, fresh and gourmand scents each have a mood, and knowing which you enjoy makes choosing much easier.
