The name Côté Bastide loosely translates to "around the house" (but a countryside home in the south). All the fragrances are inspired from a childhood in Provence, the owner's family garden, and her extensive personal travels. The candles are all handmade and beautifully hand packaged in France; the ingredients come from Grasse (the perfume capital of the world), in the south of France. A very elegant, refined and authentic little luxury with an absolutely irresistible charm.
Tilleul, or Lime Tree/ Linden Tree Blossom. A symbol of happiness and faithfulness. A gorgeous subtle scent, with a hint of masculinity. If they weren't all completely mouth watering, I would say it's my favourite.
Lait, or Milk. Reminiscent of sweet cream, fresh, soft and comforting. A very subtle, innocent kind of scent.
Figuier, or Fig Tree. The fragrance is extracted from the crushed leaves, and is both a bit woodsy and a bit floral. And amazing.
Thé Vanille, or Vanilla Tea. A very warm, cozy scent. It's so homey, it could be the perfect scent for the holidays.
Fleurs d'Oranger, or Orange Blossom. This is the one we have burning at the time of writing. I'm completely intoxicated. It is a an amazing fresh scent, taking me to straight to sweet, sweet, springtime.
Argan, the same in word in english, is a tree endemic to Morocco. Another very subtle scent, with an almost hint of a floral, but barely.
