Three stand-out fragrances are Sugarplum Bliss, Spiced Clementine & Clove, and Starry Night, which I was kindly sent.
Each candle offers around 40 hours of burn time and is priced at £25 HERE, providing long-lasting fragrance and ambience throughout the season. Here’s a closer look at each scent and what makes them special.
Sugarplum Bliss
Sugarplum Bliss is the ultimate sweet festive treat. The fragrance opens with juicy sugarplum and nectarine, gently blended with soft floral notes of pink rose petals and jasmine.
As it burns, a creamy vanilla base emerges, creating a comforting and indulgent scent that fills the room without becoming overpowering.
This candle is ideal for those who love sweeter, more playful fragrances that still feel elegant. It evokes images of festive treats, cosy evenings, and twinkling lights — perfect for adding a little magic to your winter nights.
Why You’ll Love It
If you prefer gourmand scents with a hint of floral sophistication, Sugarplum Bliss is a beautiful balance between sweetness and serenity.
Spiced Clementine & Clove
A classic holiday fragrance that instantly conjures warmth and nostalgia. Spiced Clementine & Clove blends zesty mandarin and sweet orange with warming spices of cinnamon, clove, and nutmeg. Notes of vanilla and soft neroli add a touch of smoothness, rounding out the fragrance beautifully.
The perfect candle for cold evenings, it fills your home with a comforting citrus-spice aroma reminiscent of mulled wine and freshly baked festive treats.
Why You’ll Love It
If you enjoy traditional Christmas scents with a twist of citrus freshness, this one brings warmth and joy to any space without being too sweet or heavy.

Starry Night captures the essence of a calm winter evening. Think crisp night air mingled with a subtle blend of cool florals and soft musk, gently grounded by warm woody notes. It’s sophisticated, relaxing, and perfect for winding down after a long day.
This fragrance creates a tranquil and luxurious atmosphere, ideal for bedrooms, living rooms, or anywhere you want to unwind.
