Candles
Light up your love with a French candle! Candles are the perfect gift for anyone and are a sure-fire way to fill the air with love. Brands like Astiere de Villatte and Trudon add a luxurious touch to any room, while scents from Mademoiselle Lulubelle and Maison Louis Maire transport your senses to the flower-filled gardens of France. You can also spice things up with an Elixir dโAmour candle from Un Soir ร lโOpera to feel the energy of Paris with each flicker of the flame.
Bath & Body
Nothing speaks to love better than the gift of self-care. Light a Parisian candle, fill the bathtub, and turn on some smooth French jazz while you enjoy the rejuvenating properties of a Mademoiselle Saint Germain facemask. On the MFCH Boutique, we have the best hand creams from French brands Fragonard and Rose et Marius as well as a shiny, decadent body oil from Voilร to moisturize after a proper soak.
For the face, apply only the best, natural French products from Laboratoires Cap Ferret. Anti-aging cream and anti-aging serum combined with contour lip & eye cream will have your skin glowing like a French girl who has just fallen in love.
