When you’re in a long-term relationship, it’s important to remember to make time for things like hour-long make out sessions and back rubs. It’s important to be intimate, even though work sucked and the dishes need to be done. One way to do that is turn off the TV, turn out the lights, and set something on fire.

I recently received a Ilume Velas de Casa candle from our friends at Edensfantasys.com and thought it was the perfect excuse to treat my lady friend to a lovely evening. I’m really excited about this particular candle (as excited as one can be about a candle) because it is made out of soy and has a lead free wick. That means it burns a lot cleaner than your standard paraffin candle and you won’t be filling the air with toxic carcinogens. For those of you that identify as hippies, or conscious human beings, soy is also a renewable resource – so this candle is better for you and the environment!

The Ilume Velas de Casa comes in a few different scents, but I got the Flor de Sol, which happens to smell exactly like Elizabeth Arden’s Sunflowers perfume. It’s totally not overwhelming and the scent is really fresh. It also comes in an attractive frosted glass jar that will fancy up any room. The 7.4 ounce candle is said to burn for around fifty hours, so it will provide you with lots of quality time with yourself or a special friend.

For those of you who are reading to move past the cuddling into a kinkier realm, I have good news! Soy wax burns cooler than paraffin, so this is a great candle for wax play. My only complaint is that the Flor de Sol is a light yellow color, so it didn’t really stand out in contrast to my pasty skin. There are other colors though, so you may want to consider that if you’re buying this for that particular reason.

The best thing for me is that turning off distractions and sitting by candle light keeps my girlfriend and I connected, whether we’re cuddled up talking about what happened at work or partaking in one of the aforementioned hour long make out sessions.
