WHY DO YOU LIKE AND COLLECT MATCHES?

I love them! Unfortunately I lost my favorite box of scented matches by @officine_universelle_buly, but you can picture them. I am also a candle collector, so it’s natural that matches are part of the whole ritual. Nothing I love more than the scent of burnt matches.

WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE ONES AND WHY?

I’ve kept these from @hotelsamourparis for ages from my first fashion week trip to Paris a while ago. I love this place and this is my favorite souvenir. They remind me of how excited I was on that trip, everything was new and fun.

WHEN AND HOW DO YOU LIKE TO ENJOY YOUR MATCHES?

The whole process of lighting a candle, my favorite ritual. From the moment I light up my match, the sound and smell of it immediately puts me in a good mood.
