Meghan Markle is no stranger to trendsetting – from the clothes hanging in her closet to the chicken coop in her garden. It is natural, therefore, that a recent glimpse into her Montecito home sparked a whole new conversation in the interiors industry.
While much of the decor in her Santa Barbara residence is noteworthy, it is her choice of accessories that has got people talking. The biggest talking point, though, is her choice of candle, which is, unsurprisingly, one of the best candles on the market.
The candle in question is the Bassett Rose Water Candle from Soho Home – a scent that combines delicate notes of geranium, lemon, and bergamot with musky, wooden and spicy aromas.
In her interview with The Cut, Meghan pairs the lit candle with 'the gentle tones of a flamenco-inflected guitar' that fill the room where she sits. The Duchess explains that the founder and CEO of Soho House, Nick Jones, was a friend 'from long before she met Harry.'
The brand, which owns the Soho Home branch, started as a private members club in London but is now a global empire, with clubs in New York, West Hollywood, Malibu, and Austin, to name but a few. You can also shop its homeware and candles similar to Meghan's on Net-a-Porter.
Other notable living room ideas from the interview include a 'cozy chair,' and the room is described as being 'climate-controlled', with large ceilings that were drenched in sunlight.
The Bassett Rose Water Candle knows how to make a statement in the Californian royal residence – and with an approximate burn time of 70 hours, we expect it will remain in the home for a long time to come. We're adding one to our cart right now.
