Why Harvest? Our thoughts..,
A candle that celebrates abundance, grounding, and the richness of memory. At its centre, ylang ylang brings a soft, exotic sweetness, while Indonesian patchouli adds its unmistakable earthy depth, once the emblem of counterculture, now cherished for its timeless grounding quality. Beneath it all lies Himalayan cedarwood, steady and protective, a reminder of nature’s enduring cycles.
We called it Harvest because this blend feels like gathering of scents, of memories, of the season’s gifts. It evokes nostalgia for autumn fields, earthy soil, and the warmth of community, making it a fragrance steeped in comfort and belonging.
We feel this fragrance belongs in several fragrance groups. Here's why...,
-
Reminiscent:
- Patchouli and cedarwood are deeply nostalgic, evoking the earthy scents of autumn, the 1960s counterculture, and the ritual of gathering in.
- Ylang ylang adds a sensual, comforting thread, tying it to memory and emotion.
-
Relaxing:
- Cedarwood and ylang ylang both carry strong calming, stress-easing properties. The blend offers grounding and balance, echoing the “herbal comfort” and “wellness blends” within your Relaxing group.
-
Seasonal: Autumn:
- Earthy patchouli and woody cedarwood match the group’s “crisp apple, smoky woods, crunchy leaves, softly spiced treats.”
- This candle captures the essence of autumn evenings and seasonal abundance.
- All Natural Ingredients
- Sustainably Made
- One Tree Planted With Every Refill
- Important Note. Please read this.
- Our hand made wax essence refills should only be used in our Vessels. They should not be burned like Pillar candles. The natrual vegetable waxes we use have much lower melting points than the petroleum based waes used in pillar candles. Each of our candle refills has been designed, made and tested to work only inside its recommended Vessel(s).
Refill Instructions
- Open the refill packaging and hold by wick. Minimise touching the wax as it may soften and melt on your hands. There should be no cause for concern as the wax is a natural wax and the fragrance oil is essential oil.
FAQs
What type of wax do you use?
What type of wax do you use?
We use a blend of coconut and rapeseed wax. Here are our reasons.
🌱 Sustainability & Eco-credentials
- Renewable sources: Both coconut and rapeseed oils are plant-based, renewable crops.
- Lower environmental impact than soy in some regions; soy often involves deforestation, whereas rapeseed is widely grown in the UK and Europe.
- Biodegradable: No petroleum / parafin / mineral based wax.
- Vegan friendly: Absolutely no animal products. Bees love us.
🔥 Burning Qualities
- Clean burn: Produces little to no soot compared to petroleum based waxes.
- Slower, longer burn time than paraffin or soy blends, so our customers get more hours per candle.
- Even burn: Less tunnelling, better melt pool formation.
👃 Fragrance Performance
- Excellent scent throw (hot and cold): Coconut wax especially is known for holding and releasing fragrance oils well.
- Stable blend: Rapeseed helps balance the softness of coconut wax, giving a reliable consistency.
🇬🇧 Local Benefits
- Rapeseed is a common UK crop, so you're tapping into a local, sustainable supply chain.
- Blending with coconut (yes we know coconut is imported) still gives you the fragrance and performance benefits, but with a UK grown soy component the end product has a lower carbon footprint.
Why do you use essential oils and not fragrance oils?
Why do you use essential oils and not fragrance oils?
We choose to use essential oils rather than synthetic fragrance oils because they’re natural, plant-based, and kinder to both you and the environment.
Each one is carefully extracted from real botanicals, meaning you’re getting a scent that’s authentic and full of character.
Whether it’s calming lavender, uplifting citrus, or refreshing peppermint. Essential oils don’t rely on artificial chemicals or phthalates, so they offer a cleaner, more natural way to enjoy fragrance.
It’s our way of giving you products that feel like genuine, sustainable luxury rather than a synthetic imitation.
I’ve read fragrance oils can be better than essential oils. Is this true?
I’ve read fragrance oils can be better than essential oils. Is this true?
You’re right, fragrance oils do have some advantages. They’re really consistent, there are loads more scents to choose from, and they can sometimes give off a stronger throw in candles.
But for us, essential oils just feel more special. They’re natural, plant-based, and bring that extra layer of authenticity and wellbeing that synthetics can’t match.
We love that every oil has a story and a real connection to nature, and that’s what we want to share with you.
