Alexander McQueen is entering the homeware space. The British fashion house has officially launched its latest creation, an assortment of candles featuring three captivating scents – Ghost Flower, Pagan Rose, and Savage Bloom – inspired by the juxtaposition between light and darkness, tradition and innovation, and fragility and strength, all of which lie at the heart of the McQueen legacy.

Each candle was meticulously crafted by a different perfumer, who was given complete artistic freedom to channel the very essence of McQueen’s distinctive codes and turn it into a scent. Ghost Flower contrasts fresh freesia and peony with earthy patchouli. Pagan Rose is based around the tension between fragile wild rose and earthy peat. Savage Bloom has a head of tuberose and a heart of oud. Embracing the storytelling nature that characterizes McQueen’s iconic collections, the candles are encased in an egg-shaped black lacquered glass with a silver, dark or gold metal lid. The glass is protected by a mycelium shell and the candles are nestled within a refined wooden crate. Just like McQueen’s exquisite ready-to-wear pieces and accessories, these candles are true works of art that are poised to grace your home with their beauty.

All candles are crafted using a harmonious blend of black mineral waxes and rapeseed wax. Candles are priced at $395 and are available at selected stores and online.
