03 - Burberry Ivy Green Candle, SGD400
Under Daniel Lee’s creative direction, Burberry released a new series of candles just in time for the festive season.

Each candle also comes with its own bone china plate, which you can reuse after. BURBERRY
04 - Chanel N°5 Eau de Parfum Refillable Purse Spray, SGD328
