This candle collection is crafted to enhance the experience of being at home through scent. The 13 candle collection is a recent collaboration with Ben Gorham, the founder of luxe home and fragrance brand Byredo. With scents like sandalwood and fresh basil and mint, we can only imagine cozying up with one of these affordable, yet luxurious scents.

4. Trubbtåg Duvet Cover

There’s nothing better than curling up under the covers on colder nights, and when your bedding this is this cozy, its even harder to resist. The stitching on the TrubbtÃ¥g duvet cover adds an extra detailing and and its percale weave, made with cotton and lyocell, makes this duvet cover and pillow case set both cool and crisp, for the hot sleepers out there.
