My favourite candle | Jo Malone

I absolutely love candles, I find them relaxing and I love to light them when I'm just chilling in bed after having a lovely bath. I have wanted to try a Jo Malone candle for so long but couldn't justify the £40 for the candle. 
As a gift my boyfriend bought me a Jo Malone candle in the fragrance 'lavender and lovage' at first I was sceptical because I'm not a fan of lavender however the lovage really helps to make it such a pleasant scent. It also has hints of Rosemary and thyme, this isn't a scent I'd usually go for as I'm much more of a vanilla or sweet scent type of person however I'm glad I was bought a scent that I wouldn't usually buy as it gives me a chance to try different scents than I'm use to. To me, it's got quite a manly scent it's not a feminine scent like I'm used to, I find it very relaxing and therapeutic and you can definitely smell that it's an expensive candle because the scent is so strong and travels round the whole house. I can burn the candle for around 20 minutes and the smell will linger for ages.
 Not only is the scent amazing but the packaging, it looks so classy and I love that, once I'm done with the candle I'm going to use the jar as a make up brush holder because it's a good use of recycling and I think it'll look pretty on my dressing table. Such a lovely spring candle.
What other Jo Malone scents would you recommend ?
