“Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness” said Keats and without a doubt Autumn is our favourite season. It's a time for cosy jumpers, log fires, autumn leaves and bonfire night - our Autumn Wax Melts are our nod to the time of the year when we seek to snuggle up in front of the fire with a good book after an Autumnal walk on a rainy Sunday afternoon.
A deliciously rich blend of cedarwood, lavender, and ylang ylang essential oils, each carefully chosen for their therapeutic benefits to create a sense of comfort and invoke a feeling of togetherness and warmth, our Autumn Melts are a gorgeous blend of earthy woodiness and rich florals that are perfect for creating the sense of Hygge we are so passionate about. As an added bonus - lavender essential oil has anti-bacterial properties which are released into the air with the fragrance as the candle burns to help protect your home from Autumnal bugs.
Cedarwood (Juniperus Virginiana) Essential Oil
Cedarwood has a rich history dating back to Ancient Egypt, where it was celebrated for its restorative and ritualistic uses. Long valued for promoting positivity, focus, and protection, cedarwood also boasts anti-inflammatory, sedative, and antifungal qualities. This grounding, earthy oil, with its signature smoky, woodsy aroma, is derived from the needles, leaves, bark, and sometimes even the berries of cedar trees. As a natural air freshener, cedarwood helps to deodorize indoor spaces, encourage relaxation, ease tension, clear the mind, and support restful sleep. Plus, cedarwood is a natural insect repellent, making it a handy way to keep moths and spiders at bay!
Lavender (Lavandula Officinalis) Essential Oil
Lavender essential oil is known for its calming, relaxing effects and can be a wonderful natural mood booster, especially helpful for easing stress and improving sleep. Traditionally valued for its healing benefits, lavender oil supports wound care and helps guard against harmful bacteria, offering gentle relief from pain. This is largely thanks to linalool - a naturally occurring compound recognized for its antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties. Extracted through steam distillation from lavender plants, this essential oil brings both soothing aromas and wellness benefits into your space.
Ylang Ylang (Cananga Odorata) Essential Oil
Rich, floral, and exotic, ylang ylang essential oil is revered for its mood-boosting and brightening qualities. Known for its immune-boosting properties, it also soothes and reassures by influencing processes in the hippocampus area of the brain and in the serotonin system, which points to an anti-anxiety effect. Traditionally ylang ylang has been used to help release negative emotions, promote positivity and support sleep.
The oils are hand-blended in our studio before being added to sustainably sourced soy wax, infused, and then hand-poured in small batches to ensure quality. Topped with dried botanicals and presented in a kraft presentation box, the essential oils in our melts will gently scent your space and give you a well-being boost for up to 4-6 hours.

As we use natural Soy wax you may see some frosting, this is normal for soy wax and does not affect the scent or burn.
