We combine traditional expertise and knowledge with state-of-the-art technology at our factory in Glasgow. We dip, mould, press, roll, and fill the highest-quality wax around pure-cotton wicks to make a huge variety of candles of different shapes, sizes, colours and fragrances.
All of our scented candles are made with the purest of scents and the variety of original fragrances and scent combinations we offer is unrivalled. To browse through our range of scented candles is to take an olfactory trip around the world and through the seasons with Pomegranate & Ginger evoking the Far East, Lavender & Lilac ushering in the Spring season, and Vanilla & Coconut conjuring up the gentle swish of a warm sea on a tropical beach.
