Jason Wu for Nest Fragrances

We are so excited about the arrival of Jason Wu's first candle.  The scent, which is called Orchid Rain, is a mix of white orchid the Cattleya with nashi pear, pomegranate, and goji berry with lighter notes of blonde birchwood and hits of pink pepper and coconut.  Better yet, it comes in a porcelain container with a Jason Wu print from his Spring 2012 collection topped with a gold-plated lid.  It has a great aroma and is exactly what you would expect from Jason Wu!
