Home fragrance products always feel like such a treat, whether you're buying for others or yourself, especially when the compliments fly in from visitors wanting to know what it is and where you found your best candles, essential oil diffusers and reed diffusers.
It's even more satisfying if you can nab your favorites for less in the sales. Luckily the Nordstrom Anniversary sale is now on (until 3 Aug) and I'm stocking up on big-name luxury brands, such as Jo Malone, Diptyque and Nest now to get ahead for Christmas. I may even treat myself to a gift or two 'pour moi'. My Diptyque Baies candle is always a favorite, and I've got my eye on Jo Malone's English Pear and Freesia reed diffusers to match my favorite Cologne.
I don't want everyone finding out about these great deals before I've had chance to fill my Christmas gift boxes, though – for once I'm actually getting organized for the festive season before Thanksgiving. Here's what I'll be adding to my cart, but don't tell my friends and family as they could be unwrapping some of them in December.
My home fragrance picks from the Nordstrom Anniversary sale
I can keep one for me and give one to a friend wtih this deal on reed diffusers in my favorite Jo Malone scent. It's so light and fresh for summer and will fill your home with floral notes of freesia and King William pear.
