Alva's Ball

A fragrant tribute to the spectacle of elegance and ambition.

Alva’s Ball evokes the grandeur and spectacle of one of the most lavish events of the Gilded Age—the unforgettable debutante ball held by Alva Vanderbilt. Known for her ambition and mastery of high society, Alva’s soirées were nothing short of legendary, filled with shimmering gowns, luxurious decor, and the scent of the finest perfumes wafting through the grand halls.

This candle opens with a bright, effervescent blend of champagne and bergamot, leading into a heart of iris, white peony, and violet—florals that capture the refined elegance of the event’s dazzling guests. The base of amber, sandalwood, and a hint of vanilla bourbon creates a warm, sophisticated finish that lingers long after the night has passed, reminiscent of the unforgettable allure and lasting legacy of Alva’s vision.

Bold, opulent, and unforgettable, Alva’s Ball is the fragrance of a night where dreams were realized, and the world was at the feet of New York’s most powerful elite.
