Illume Candles

Illume Candles

Finding beauty through fragrance since 1994, Illume is a world of pure imagination. Travelers and seekers, they study culture and color, and let trends play with their instincts to create signature fragrances and designs. Illume chooses to create new fragrances based on what's popular the time being. 

The craft is a mix of inspired elements: The scent. The style. The wax. The wick. Each fragrance created consists of raw materials. They infuse flawless standards in every product. If it isn't perfect, it doesn't leave the Minneapolis headquarters.

Each of Illumes' pillar candles are handcrafted to ensure vibrant color and extraordinary fragrance. The signature mottled appearance is achieved through artisan techniques, including hand-pouring the food-grade paraffin wax from tea kettles.

Purchase  your Illume Candle at Le Reve’s online store , stop in, or give us a call. Le Reve is located in the beautiful downtown area. Directions to our organic boutique.  

Thanks!

Illume Candles at Le Reve

Illume Candles at Le Reve

We have been carrying Illume candles here at Le Reve for quite some time, We just got a new candle scent at the spa it is the Pineapple-Cilantro candle. I truly love the scent of this candle. If I could have one burning in my apartment all the time I probably would. I would highly recommend this scent to everyone.

 

Pineapple Cilantro - An unexpected, quirky combination—yin and yang—that you just can't get enough of. Peppery cilantro accents sweet pineapple and rose petals with a delicious finish of woody tonka, vanilla bean and heliotrope musk.

You can purchase this product by stopping into our Organic Boutique at 21 W. Gutierrez St. or by going online to our store.

Here is my top 5 picks for the best and most affordable aromatherapy Valentine's gifts:

1.  DeepSteep's Bubble Bath-

Set up a romantic bubble bath and fill the water with flowers and a couple drops of Deep Steep's organic bubble bath.  A soothing bath is the perfect way to start or end a special day... and this product is only $14.00.  We carry this bubble bath in rosemary- mint, tangerine-melon, and lavender-chamoile, & rosemary-mint... all these delicious scents that will be sure to sooth and rejuvenate. 

2.  Apricot Body Oil-

Eminence Organic's fragrant apricot body oil can be used for a relaxing massage...which can be a great way to connect with your partner for just $30.00.  The body oil is ultra hydrating and nourishing for the skin and is completely oift!rganic.  The apricot body oil is packed with healing essential oils such as grape seed and jojoba, which your skin will truly appreciate. 

3.  Coconut Oil-

Coconut oil can be used in a variety of healthy ways... but one of the best ways is when you warm it up and massage it onto your Valentine's hands and feet.  They will truly enjoy this relaxing experience & maybe you can ask for a little rub down in return?  We retail a 16 oz container of coconut oil for just $18.00.  And after Valentine's day you can use the remainder as a conditioner for your hair, a body wash, or for flavoring food. 

4.  Scented Candles-

What is more romantic then walking into candlelit room?  Set up some fragrant candles by a bath tub, in the bedroom, or at the dinner table to add an extra romantic element for just $25.00.  Le Reve carries Illume's organic candles that come in amazing scents, and will burn all night long.  My favorite pick is the mulled wine or the gardenia.  From my experience... there was never a problem or a date that scented candles couldn't fix!  

5.  Jurlique's Love Balm 

Everyone's skin needs a little extra love during the dry winter months... and Jurlique's organic love balm will soothe cracked lips.  This balm will leave your lips feeling silky smooth and retails for only $10.00.  Pucker up for a sweet kiss with this gift!

Mull over a Mulled-Wine Scented Candle This Valentines Day

Valentines day is an important holiday, there's no denying it. Pretty much everything has to be perfect or you risk losing the love of your significant other. The pressure is totally on. Once you have your gifts figured out, what's next? Deciding on what to serve for breakfast in bed, or maybe whether to go out to a fancy meal or serve one that's home-cooked and made with love? If dinner's going to be at home, there's even more pressure to make the set up everything you would get at a 5-Star restaurant and then some. Things to think about are music, lighting, silverware, dishes, the table cloth, any flowers you might want to display, and, most importantly, candles. You may not think they're important, but think about how much they add to the whole experience. With a good enough candle, you'll get romantic lighting, a bit of warmth, and an amazing scent to mix with the smell of a home-cooked meal. My absolute favorite scent is Mulled Wine, from Illume. It has a tendency to make the whole house smell like a warm, fruity cider which is, essentially what mulled wine is. Here at le Rêve, you can get a Mulled Wine candle in a 3-wick faceted jar, pictured below, or a short pillar candle. Arrange these on the table with other red-wine-colored decor and it will be a huge hit! You can order them from our online store by clicking on the picture of the candle, or you could come by our store to test out the scent at 21 W. Gutierrez Street in downtown Santa Barbara.

XOXO
