Price History
Description
This Mandarin, Clove & Cinnamon candle is full of the evocative scent of Christmas. Its spicy, zesty tones are enhanced by a warming note of nutmeg, and balanced by a smooth base of vanilla and cedarwood. The two-wick design burns for up to 40 hours, and is presented in a glass jar for stylish gifting. This fragrance is part of the Citrus family of fragrances. Citrus scents are refreshing and zesty and may include notes such as lemon, bergamot, grapefruit, orange and mandarin amongst others.
Our Stylist Says
I love this candle for its warm, festive scent profile, combining citrusy mandarin with spicy clove and cinnamon notes-perfect for creating a cosy atmosphere. It works beautifully in both traditional and contemporary interiors, adding a touch of seasonal elegance without overpowering the space. For styling, try placing it on a minimalist tray or alongside some natural textures like woven baskets or wooden accents to enhance its rich colours. It’s ideal for coffee tables, sideboards, or even in the bathroom to add a spa-like feel. Just ensure it’s positioned where it won’t be disturbed to enjoy the full flame and scent experience.

About Marks & Spencer
History and Expansion
Marks and Spencer, often lovingly called "Marks and Sparks" or "M&S", has been a staple in the UK market since its founding in 1884. Over the years, the brand has seen tremendous growth, with 1,064 stores across the UK and an additional 406 locations worldwide as of 2023.
Historically, M&S was celebrated for its commitment to selling British-made goods, pioneering the "St Michael" brand in 1928 which honoured its co-founder Michael Marks.
As they grew, M&S maintained its reputation for quality, fair value, and innovative customer policies, even allowing returns with full cash refunds regardless of purchase date.
Clothing & Home Business Endeavours
In recent years, M&S has focused on modernising its Clothing & Home business, striving to offer contemporary, stylish products that resonate with their 22 million customers.
A noteworthy move was their acquisition of Jaeger in 2021, a brand that shares a founding year with M&S. Under M&S's umbrella, Jaeger remains an independent brand, renowned for its timeless elegance, and is now available on M&S's website and in select M&S stores across the UK and Ireland.
Sustainability and Innovations
Throughout its existence, Marks and Spencer has demonstrated commitment to improving customer experience and sustainability.
In the 1950s, they introduced hygiene training for canteen staff, and by the 1960s had implemented thermostatically controlled refrigerators for enhanced energy efficiency.
M&S has been at the forefront of many retail innovations, from introducing "sell by dates" in the early '70s to enhance food quality, to banning smoking in all their stores as early as 1959 due to fire hazards.
The brand's long standing dedication to quality, customer relations, and sustainability remains evident in their practices today.
