Revisit the romance of classic rose with a hint of spice in our Rose and Sandalwood Candle. This is a candle with a floral heart, framed in sweet fruits and warming woods. We've created this candle with care for the environment, using a sustainable blend of coconut and rapeseed wax.
At first inhalation, this candle is fruity with sweet notes of blackcurrant and plum balanced by the warm tang of mandarin. After that comes a bouquet of rose, carnation, lily and geranium. Last are smooth sandalwood and cedarwood with the final warmth of amber.
We created our Rose and Sandalwood Candles because, every time we asked for your favourite scents, both were high on the list! Rose essential oil has a very low yield to the amount of flowers used. Likewise, sandalwood essential oil isn't sustainable unless sourced from Australia. By choosing fragrance oil, we can therefore offer you these two beloved scents with a lower environmental impact (read more on fragrance oils below).
How is rapeseed & coconut wax sustainable?
We pour our Rose and Sandalwood Candle in Cardiff. It's our first candle using a rapeseed and coconut wax blend. This is the best vegan and sustainable choice we've found.
The rapeseed for our wax is grown in Europe. Our supplier sources coconuts from family farms in the Philippines and Indonesia. In addition, the farmers have access to training in sustainable coconut farming practices. For example, no forest may be cut down for the planting of coconut trees.
Our rose and sandalwood candles contain no parabens or phthalates and are vegan friendly.
We make our candles with love and have illustrated the labels with roses and sandalwood pods. If you're the kind of person who will pause to smell a fresh rose and pick out the many notes within, this is a candle to treasure.

Candle care
To make the most of your candle, allow the wax to form an even melt pool before blowing the flame out. If there's a little wax around the edges, don't worry. It usually melts down in the final burn. Don't leave your candle burning for longer than 4 hours. To keep it clean, trim your wick to about 5mm each time you light it. You can use your candle to set aside a space in your home (however small) to relax in, reflect or mark a transition in your day.
How we choose fragrance
We make our candles with either fragrance oils with no parabens or phthalates, or organic essential oils.
Fragrance oils are lab made with often nature identical compounds. They have a greater hot throw and can minimise the land needed to grow natural materials.
Organic essential oils are grown in a way that respects nature and the soil. Their scent is more gentle and may have aromatherapy benefits.
We make both so you can choose the scents that are right for you and fit with your values.
