Candle Information
Everything we think you might want to know about our candles...
We've tried to think about every aspect of our luxury scented candles to ensure they give you the best experience while creating the minimum impact on the environment
​
The information below relates to our core range. If you'd like information on our organic candles, please check out the corresponding "about" page
​
Our new signature wax is made for us in the UK. No petrochemicals, and no soy (it's difficult to trace soy for candle wax, so it can't be guaranteed deforestation or GMO free). It features a high proportion of British grown rapeseed oil, supporting British farmers as well as certified organic coconut oil, supporting family smallholders in Southern Asia. It's not only the most environmentally friendly available, but also burns clean and slow, meaning you get the most out of your candle
​
Our fragrances are made with 100% essential oils, and we actively look for the most sustainably sourced options
​
Our new wicks are made from natural fibre constructed in a complex patented process that allows us to achieve the high performance we require with a 100% natural vegetable wax coating
​
Our organic range uses a completely organic certified wax and vegetable wax coated wicks
​​
Our wicks are now attached with a certified biodegradable glue dot, which we've tested to be easy to remove when it comes to refilling or recycling your candle
​
Our glass containers are made in Italy, and can be recycled alongside your household glass once clean (see FAQs). Organic candle containers are made in France, in a factory using renewable energy and high standards of waste management and environmental responsibility
​​​
The packaging is entirely plastic-free. We've also chosen not to include lids with our candles, as in our experience these are often not used, and are often not accepted for recycling
​
There are hundreds of luxury candle brands vying for your attention on the shelves- many with fancy or complex packaging, trinkets or shiny bits to catch your eye. Sustainability is a core element of our brand, so conscious decisions about packaging- both in the energy and complexity of manufacturing as well as ease of recycling at the end mean that we've foregone some of the bling. We hope our packaging reflects the premium, quality feel you expect while minimising our impact on the world around us
