The Hotel Lobby Candle x Nespresso Martini Candle is Immersive

— May 4, 2026 — Marketing
The Hotel Lobby Candle x Nespresso Martini candle has been created through a collaboration between the signature candle brand and the coffee brand to offer an aromatic profile that plays with the olfactory experience.

The candle sets itself apart from generic coffee-scented aromatics with a layered profile that's inspired by the classic espresso martini for a new kind of scent experience. The candle thus boasts vanilla vodka alongside caramel to achieve a richer, rounded sweetness before evolving with a cream accord as a nod to espresso crema. The candle will thus evolve during burning to deliver the initial intensity that coffee aroma is known for before transitioning into softer, sweeter notes.

The Hotel Lobby Candle x Nespresso Martini candle is being offered for purchase through both brands' online shops as well as brick and mortar boutiques.
