Pumpkin Spice - 25 Hour Candle

Yes. The same fragrance oils we use in our perfume range go into the candles, at a high concentration. Most customers notice the scent within a few minutes of lighting - the wood wick helps here because it melts the wax across a wider surface area than a cotton wick, which pushes more fragrance into the room faster.

Room size matters: a single candle works well in a bedroom, bathroom, or mid-sized living room. For a large open-plan space, two candles or supplementing with a reed diffuser will give you a more even scent throughout.

Two practical reasons. Wood wicks burn wider than cotton, which creates a larger melt pool and distributes fragrance more evenly across the room. They also burn cleaner - less soot, less mushrooming at the tip.

The crackling sound is a side effect rather than the point, but most people find it a decent bonus.

Up to 25 hours of burn time. Because the fragrance load is high, you don't need to burn it for hours to notice the effect - 45 minutes to an hour is usually enough to fragrance a room, after which you can extinguish it and let the residual warmth carry the scent for a while longer.

How you look after the wick between burns affects this too — see the candle care question below.

The first burn is the most important one. Let the candle burn until the melted wax reaches the edge of the glass - this usually takes 1.5 to 2 hours depending on the diameter. If you extinguish it before the wax has fully pooled to the edges, it will tunnel down the middle on subsequent burns and you'll lose a significant amount of usable wax.

Before each relight, trim the wood wick by gently pinching off the burnt black portion - a clean wick gives you a steadier flame and reduces any smoking. A wick trimmer works well for this, but fingers are fine once the wax has fully cooled.

Yes — we use the same fragrance profiles across the perfume and home range. If you wear No. 197 or No. 82, the matching candle carries the same scent.

It's designed for people who want their home to reflect the same fragrance they wear, or as a way to try a scent profile in a lower-commitment format before buying the full perfume.

Our candles use a rapeseed and coconut oil wax blend — both plant-derived, with no paraffin. Rapeseed wax is a natural, renewable crop; coconut wax is known for its clean burn and strong scent throw.

The combination gives a slower, more even burn than paraffin alternatives and is fully vegan and cruelty-free.

Yes, under our 30-day money-back guarantee — but the candle must be unlit and in its original condition to qualify.

Unlike our reed diffusers, we can't accept returns on candles that have been burned, so if you're unsure about a scent we'd suggest trying it as a reed diffuser first, or ordering a fragrance sample from the perfume range before committing to the candle.

Note: The last sentence assumes samples are available for the matching scent profiles — remove or adjust if that's not always the case
