WHY DO YOU LIKE AND COLLECT MATCHES?

First of all I like the smell! I light matches mostly just for the smell… and also because I like the vintage vibes they send out. I remember my father was carrying different matchboxes when I was younger.

WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE ONES AND WHY?

Those from the 80’s are so cool. But I also like modern ones with good designs and colors. I have manufactured a matchbox for my brand @aperlaeliving to create a nice little duo with our candles.

WHEN AND HOW DO YOU LIKE TO ENJOY YOUR MATCHES?

I like to light up candles, sage. I don’t like to use lighters. That’s why matches are better.
