"THIS BRAND IS SO EXCITING" - MIXMY

Within weeks of launching (October 2022), MIXMY was thrilled to be featured alongside Cire Trudon, Diptyque, Aqua di Parma, Jo Loves and Neom in Alice du Parcq’s Instagram Live on ‘the churchiest perfumes and candles imaginable – from smoky, smouldering and filthy gorgeous to mellow, spiritual and cosy’.

Alice is the god (an apt accolade considering her feature is on churchy scents!) of fragrance, having spent 20 years writing fragrance pieces for every major press publication going.

“This brand is so exciting”, says Alice about MIXMY SCENT.

Alice goes on to describe MIXMY’s 5. WOOD/SMOULDER PRIMARY CANDLE: “This is like a leather jacket that your teenage crush puts over your shoulders when you’re watching bonfire night together. It’s got this really dark, sexy, grrrr grit to it. It’s a little bit filthy – we love that! – and it’s just so, so good. Very smouldery, very smoky, a little bit sooty, leather tobacco, and the words wood/smoulder are just perfect. They’ve nailed it with that description.”

The amazing review goes on. Too much to write here!

Scented candles should be burned, not saved for best. This is because the fragrance in scented candles isn’t static - it evolves and degrades over time due to natural processes, even when the candle is not lit, so over time, this leads to a gradual loss of scent intensity.

The beauty of a MIXMY candle is in the experience, not its shelf life… so get burning!

Do you burn or save for best?

When creating MIXMY, combinable fragrances were at the top of my list as I wanted MIXMY fragrances to work all year round.
So rather than the lighter, fresh fruity and floral notes being mainly limited to the warmer Spring/Summer months; and the heavier spicy and woody notes dominating the Autumn/Winter months; MIXMY fragrances have been created to be used alone and smell incredible, but they can also be paired with each other to create entirely new fragrances, meaning both the lighter and the heavier fragrances can be used year round, and allows you to really personalise and tailor-make your home fragrance experience.

Do you have out-of-season home fragrances sat waiting for their season to come round again?

Early Spring is the time to open up the garden. Our walled terraced garden is very much an extension of our home, allowing us to throw open the doors and move the entertaining outside.

Power-washing the paving is my love-hate Spring job. I hate doing it, but I love the way it transforms the outdoor space… although it’s not been too bad this year as I did a second power-wash at the end of the Summer.

A few years ago, I had some covers made for the garden furniture and the outdoor kitchen - I was sick of the normal outdoor covers blowing off and not being 100% waterproof, so I had covers made using robust, waterproof yachting fabric, and they’ve been brilliant… but it’s time they’re packed away and the furniture comes out of hibernation. Let the outdoor living commence!

What are your Spring jobs?
