Features and types
The collection brings together five macro-categories: candles and candleholders, artificial flowers and plants, decorative vases, fragrances and diffusers, accessories and frames. The main brand is EDG Enzo De Gasperi, since 1970 a point of reference for home decorations, with over 1,400 items available. The offer is completed by Muhà for fragrances, Arpimex, WD LifeStyle, Tognana and other selected brands.
Decorative candles
Candles are the broadest category. Among the new autumn 2026 arrivals are the Swirl Candles EDG in packs of 2 pieces (H 30 cm), available in white, sand and green: their twisted shape makes them a standalone decorative accessory, not just a light source. They work well on candlesticks, table centrepieces and shelves. The Taper Candles EDG (H 25–30 cm, Ø 2.2 cm) come in four colours — white, ivory, gold and black — suitable for both everyday dining and Christmas displays. For those who prefer to avoid an open flame, the Set of 3 LED Candles with Glass H 17.5 cm reproduces the flickering flame effect: a practical solution when children or pets are present. The scented candles from the Jasmine and Ming lines (65–310 g) and the L'Ove egg-shaped line (H 12 cm, D 8 cm) with fragrances such as Moroccan Rose, Peony & Cassis e Fig & Gardenia are also suitable as gifts or wedding and communion favours.
For the EDG Enzo De Gasperi candleholders you'll find a dedicated selection with bases, lanterns and supports coordinated with the candles.
Artificial flowers and plants
Among the new arrivals, the standout pieces are the Velvet Roses EDG on branch with leaves (H 50 cm) in red: petals in velvet material, stem with leaves, available both as a single flower and as a decorative branch. They pair well with vases from the same line or with table arrangements. The EDG Artificial Moss Hedge anti-UV (100×100 cm, waterproof) is designed for green walls both indoors and in covered outdoor spaces: the anti-UV treatment makes it resistant to direct sunlight.
Decorative vases
EDG vases cover clear glass, coloured glass (blue, green, ochre, teal) and waterproof ceramics. Among the most popular shapes the Rhombi Vase (H 19 cm, D 11 cm) in clear glass with geometric detailing and the Sphere Vase (H 20 cm, D 23 cm) in frosted white glass, suitable as a scenic element on sideboards and shelves. For a broader overview, also explore the decorative vases with the full selection for interiors.
Muhà fragrances and diffusers
Muhà fragrances have arrived in 26 new references this season: refills for room diffusers, car refills (fragrances Water and Salt, Supreme Must, Woods and Tea, Mint and Sandalwood) and fabric fragrance in a concentrated 400 ml bottle. The refills adapt to diffusers already in use, without having to change the container.
What you'll find this autumn 2026
Autumn's arrival has brought new references to the catalogue, oriented towards Christmas 2026 and seasonal home decoration. The Swirl Candles and the Gold Taper Candles by EDG Enzo De Gasperi lend themselves to Christmas displays but work well year-round on a shelf or bookcase. The red Velvet roses warm up the space with a colour that's always spot-on in autumn. For those already thinking about the festive table, taper candles in ivory or white pair naturally with linen tablecloths and glass table centrepieces. You can find further ideas for decorating spaces in the furnishing complements and decorationssection, which expands this selection with thematic items.
If you're also looking for more structured living room solutions — lamps, chairs or armchairs — the interior furnishings section gathers proposals for the interior of the home.
How to choose the right furnishing complements
By room
Living room and entrance: frosted glass vases like the Sphere Vase (H 20 cm) hold well on large surfaces without needing other accessories. Pair them with a stick diffuser with woody or spicy notes — the fragrances Tonka Clove e Black Pepper by EDG work well in circulation spaces.
Bedroom: the egg-shaped L'Ove candles (H 12 cm) sit on a bedside table on their own, without a candleholder. Floral fragrances (Moroccan Rose, Waterlilly & Rose) are less invasive than spicy notes.
Bathroom: prefer small-format diffusers (60–100 ml) with marine or fresh notes. Artificial flowers in real-touch material hold up better to humidity than those in fabric.
Table and special occasions: EDG tealights in packs of 50 pair with mirror bases in gold or silver glass (D 25 cm) for dinner arrangements. For the Christmas table, gold taper candles (H 25 cm) with metal candlesticks do the job precisely without decorative excess.
For the occasion
Gift: EDG L'Ove candles come packaged in a gift box. They are suitable as gifts for graduations, birthdays and communions. ARPIMEX candles in glass jars (D 8.5 cm, H 10 cm) are also used as wedding, christening and confirmation favours — the jar is already a standalone package, customisable with ribbons. For matching glass favours, also check out the tone-on-tone proposal with candles, vases and decorations coordinated by colour.
Christmas displays: Swirl candles and festive taper candles fall into this category. For those who also decorate outdoor spaces at Christmas, the Alessi line offers table accessories and design objects to pair: see the Alessi collection for objects with recognisable Italian design.

FAQ — Frequently asked questions
How long does an EDG Enzo De Gasperi scented candle last?
It depends on the weight of the wax: the smaller formats (65–105 g) from the Jasmine and Ming lines last 8–20 hours, the medium ones (160–210 g) about 20–30 hours, the larger formats (310 g) over 30 hours. To extend the life of your candle: extinguish after 3–4 consecutive hours and trim the wick to about 5 mm before each re-lighting.
How do you use a stick diffuser?
Insert the sticks into the bottle and let the liquid rise up through capillary action in the first hours. The more sticks you insert, the more intense the diffusion — but the duration is reduced proportionally. Rotating the sticks every 2–3 days keeps the fragrance constant. EDG 1-litre refills allow you to refill the container already in use without replacing it.
Can EDG artificial flowers be used outdoors?
Bouquets in Olis material are treated with anti-UV coating and suitable for outdoor use. In case of heavy rain, it is preferable to shelter them temporarily. Phalaenopsis orchids in real-touch and Velvet roses are designed mainly for indoors or covered outdoor spaces.
How do you clean glass vases and candleholders?
Lukewarm water and neutral detergent, drying with a soft cloth. For wax residue: gently warm the glass with hot water and remove the softened wax with paper towels. Avoid abrasive sponges on vases with decorative finishes (stripes, rhombi, frosted).
Are ARPIMEX candles suitable as a wedding favour?
Yes. ARPIMEX candles in glass jars (D 8.5 cm, H 10 cm) are indicated for weddings, christenings, communions and confirmations. The jar already functions as a standalone package, customisable with ribbons or labels matched to the ceremony theme.
