The largest candle in the collection is the Hotel Collection Hurricane Gift Candle–which would make a great gift for any scented candle fiend. With a burn time of 270 hours, this 2.5kg candle is available in both Pomegranate and Sweet Almond & Macaroon scents and costs just £19.99–we’ve calculated that that works out to less than 8p an hour.
