With lockdown 3.0 seemingly lasting forever, chances are you’ve reached peak boredom. If you’re anything like us, all you want to do is splash your cash on nice things to cheer up your surroundings.

Perhaps you’ve taken inspo from your Instagram feed and begun adorning your home with taper candles or pampas gras. Maybe you’ve turned to sprucing up your garden furniture in the shape of Aldi’s latest hanging egg chair.

Whatever it is, we think we’ve found something that will elevate your at-home experience even more. And what if we told you it’ll even allow you to channel your inner Emily in Paris?

With visits to the home of patisseries off the cards, we’ve just discovered a new croissant-scented candle and it’s seemingly the next best thing to days spent mooching in the French capital.

And while you might not be drinking breakfast wine, or dressed in extravagant designer outfits, the soothing smell of freshly baked goods will transport you to the cobbled streets of Paris.

Prepare to inject a little French magnificence into your rituals with this très bon offering from Overose. We just wish we’d come up with the idea ourselves.

Transporting you to a local bakery in the Le Marias district, this candle promises to deliver the aroma of buttery baked goods into your home. If watching Emily in Paris made you want to visit the capital, we think this is the next best thing and there’s nothing more soothing than the smell of a bakery. Plus, it has a 60 hour burn time, meaning that the sweet scent of warm Parisian croissants will linger for a while.

While we can’t testify for this exact one, the brand’s valkiria candle (£46, Cultbeauty.co.uk) featured in our review of the best scented candles for autumn, with our writer noting that Overose’s candles have some of the strongest smelling scents even when they’re not burning, so we really can’t wait to get our hands on the croissant-scented number.

After selling out in just 14 minutes, the candle is back in stock on 13 March, so be sure to keep an eye out. We also love the sound of the brand’s euphoriasme candle (£46, Overose.com), which has notes of warm croissant, cranberries and crème brûlée.
