Candles

Scented and unscented candles, pillars, tapers and flameless LED options, from soy Ecoya to The Aromatherapy Co. Trim the wick to about five millimetres and let the first burn reach the edge, and every candle lasts longer.

Candlelight changes a room faster than almost anything else you can buy for it. Our candle range gathers scented and unscented candles, pillars, tapers and flameless options from the brands we stock, chosen for the quality of the burn as much as the look of the vessel.

Pair with a holder, a wick trimmer and a snuffer to get a cleaner burn and a longer life from every candle.

How do I make a candle last longer?
Let the first burn melt the wax pool right to the edge so the candle does not tunnel, keep the wick trimmed to about five millimetres, and burn in sessions of a couple of hours rather than all day.

Are soy candles better?
Soy burns cleaner and slower than paraffin and carries fragrance softly rather than shouting it, which is why much of our range, including Ecoya, is soy based.

What are flameless candles good for?
Anywhere a naked flame is a worry: households with small children or pets, baches left unattended, and shelves or windowsills near curtains. Our LED wax pillars give the glow without the risk.

Which scent suits which room?
Fresh citrus and herbs in the kitchen, soft florals or clean linen in the bedroom, woody and amber notes in living spaces. If in doubt, keep one scent family per room rather than letting fragrances compete.
