Designer Jason Wu selects an outfit that best represents his debut scent, Orchid Rain.

Internationally renowned fashion designer Jason Wu is known for feminine dresses. “His Spring 2012 runway had every one of his pretty and precious Wu-isms all present and correct – delicate lace, sparkling embroideries, fluttery feathers galore,” wrote Vogue’s Mark Holgate.  For the first time, this Spring, Wu extends his feminine design aesthetic into a debut scent, Orchid Rain – in a candle.

Wu partnered with NEST Fragrances, a leading home fragrance manufacturer to bring his signature scent to life. According to Wu, Orchid Rain combines white orchid – the Cattleya orchid – with nashi pear, pomegranate and goji berry.  The fruity-floral essences are enhanced with blonde birchwood and hints of pink pepper and coconut.

The sophisticated, custom-designed porcelain candle vessel features Wu’s signature print in a bisque finish, and it’s topped with an elegant gold-plated lid.  The exclusive grey, black and white orchid-floral petal print debuted last fall at Wu’s Spring 2012 show.
