About three weeks ago I was craving an extra special scent to combat the last weeks of freezing cold temps and bone chilling winds. Each day and night I went through my apothecary closet sampling fragrances, lotions and bath soaks that would remove the lingering winter chill. I found lots of wonderful products that chipped away at the cold, but the Jasmine Neroli Kukui Candle from Hawaiian Body Products was the one scent that truly pushed winter aside that particular evening. Just looking at the beautiful floral design on the box was engaging, but it was lifting the seal off the candle's top and inhaling the delicate scent that was an instant reminder of stepping off a plane in Hawaii and taking that first breath of sweet tropical air. Kukui means light in Hawaiian. In ancient times, the Kukui nuts were the source for light. The tree is a symbol of enlightenment, protection and peace. If you are searching for a special gift for a friend, for mom, mother-in -law, or even a for close friend who just lost a loved one, these candles are perfect offering. lushoasis
