Let’s take it note by note:

🌞 Top Notes – Sicilian Lime & Bergamot

Fresh. Bright. Tart. It’s like a Mediterranean holiday in candle form. These citrus top notes come out swinging—full of energy and sunshine.

🌼 Heart Notes – Mandarin, White Florals & Basil

Mandarin adds soft sweetness, while basil brings a subtle herby sophistication. White florals float in the middle, smoothing out the sharper citrus edges. It’s clean, classy, and unexpectedly comforting.

🌿 Base Notes – Patchouli & Vetiver

Velvety patchouli and grassy vetiver round things off with a whisper of warmth and earth. This combo is what gives the candle its staying power—like a cologne you can’t stop sniffing.

🧘 Perfect For:

  • Morning journaling, lemon water in hand

  • Dinner parties where you want “Wow, it smells amazing in here” vibes

  • Yoga or meditation with a touch of herbal-citrus clarity

  • Bathroom spa time (basil + bubbles = bliss)

Whether you’re setting the mood or boosting your baseline, this candle brings the botanical freshness and citrus glow every space deserves.

🌍 Wax That Doesn’t Cost the Earth

We don’t just care about how it smells—we care about how it’s made. Our Eco Wax blend is crafted from:

  • Sustainable coconut wax

  • Rapeseed wax grown in the UK and Europe

We’ve said a firm “no thanks” to:

  • Palm oil – to help protect rainforests

  • Soy – due to GMO concerns and deforestation

  • Paraffin, beeswax, polymers or GMOs – not in our lab, not in your home

Our coconut wax comes from independent indigenous farmers, not industrial plantations. When you light one of our candles, you’re also lighting up a better, fairer supply chain.

Each candle is finished with a lead- and zinc-free cotton wick, and hand-poured into a recyclable aluminium tin made in Hull, UK. It’s beauty, done responsibly.

🕯 How to Burn Like a Pro

  1. Trim the wick to 5 mm before lighting for a clean, even flame

  2. Let it burn to the edge of the tin on the first use to avoid tunneling

  3. Keep burns to 4 hours max per session for safety and longevity

  4. Cover the tin between uses to preserve fragrance

  5. Once you’re done, reuse or recycle the tin—it’s too cute to toss!

🌿 Pure Ingredients, Thoughtful Choices

We craft our candles using our signature Eco Wax blend—a simple, clean combination of coconut and rapeseed wax, and nothing else. No palm oil. No soy. No beeswax. No paraffin. No polymers. No GMOs. Just two sustainably sourced plant waxes designed to give you a beautifully clean burn.

Our cotton wicks are lead- and zinc-free, and every candle is hand-poured into a recyclable aluminium tin, manufactured in Hull, UK.

We source our rapeseed wax from farms in the UK and Europe, and our coconut wax from small-scale, independent indigenous farmers—not big corporations. So, with every burn, you’re supporting ethical growers and more sustainable farming practices.

With rising concerns about GMO crops and deforestation linked to industrial soy farming, we’ve chosen a better path. That’s why we developed our own Eco Wax blend—cleaner for the environment, kinder to communities, and just as beautifully fragrant in your home.
