KEEPING AMERICA ON TOP: WHOM YOU KNOW CELEBRATES AMERICAN STYLE INTELLIGENCE and EXCELLENCE WITH AQUIESSE: The Aquiesse Shoreline Votive Candle Is Highly Recommended by Whom You Know

Living on the Connecticut Shoreline, I love all things having to do with the beach and ocean. (Really the sound to be technical... but does not matter). Aquiesse has really incredible candles with scents that top the charts. Plus they are all made in the USA and we know how important that is. The perfect small gift for your home is the Shoreline Soy Votive Candle two pack. Also great for teachers gifts to give them something they will actually enjoy. Beautiful elegant packaging of a slide chocolate brown box with cream and blue label sets the tone for the product inside. Two Oversized votives in Aquiesse’s signature smoky brown glass appear as you slide the box open. The scent envelops me and I keep bringing them up to my nose and take a deep breath. This is when I know I am addicted as my arm mechanically goes from counter to nose over and over again. One of the must heavenly scents I have ever smelled in any candle paired with elegant packaging make these products many steps above the competition!

Living in the Mid-West, being near the shoreline is something that I miss on a daily basis. When I saw the Aquiesse Shoreline Votives, I was ecstatic. Even though I typically think summer when I smell candles very similar to this, I am always burning them throughout the year. Burning soy candles is something new for me and I think I am hooked on them now. The aroma fills my house up better than typical candles. Plus, with these votives being made in the USA, it gets a double vote from me. I am absolutely hooked on the Shoreline Votives: so hooked that I'm going to have to order more.

Ensconced comfortably in their own embossed box, from The Portfolio Collection, are two precious votive candles. The signature smoky topaz glass container holds a natural soy wax infused with a delicate fragrance. The one in my hand is "Shoreline", and when lit, carries with it a remembrance of summers past. As childhood memories settle in the dust of our busy days, things like the perfect scent will bring them back to the forefront of our minds. Shoreline is a scent that may remind you of sandy beaches, towels drying on the porch railing, digging for quahogs on the shore. All this in a candle? Oh, yes. Scent is one of the most powerful of our five senses, and can change a mood with one drifting , fine, fragrance. This is the votive candle to share with a friend, to place in various spaces of your life, and enjoy, as one would enjoy those far-away simple joys of childhood.

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
