Calm Natural Scented Candle

Calm Candle is made with a plant-based wax blend — coconut and rapeseed waxes — and scented with pure essential oils, not synthetic fragrance. The wick is cotton, lead-free, and chosen to burn cleanly without soot.

Approximately 34 hours of total burn time when used correctly. Follow the burn instructions below to get the full life out of your candle.

Three things make a candle last twice as long: (1) Trim the wick to 5mm before every burn — this stops smoking and uneven burning. (2) On the first burn, let the wax melt all the way to the edge before extinguishing (around 2-3 hours) — this prevents tunnelling. (3) Don't burn for more than 4 hours at a time. Treat it well and it'll repay you with a long, clean, gentle scent throw.

A grounding blend of lavender, rosemary, bergamot, ylang ylang and frankincense — herbal and softly floral, with bright bergamot lifting the lavender and frankincense settling everything into a deep, calm base. Genuinely relaxing without being heavy.

As with any candle, never leave a burning candle unattended, and keep out of reach of children and pets. The wax and wick are non-toxic, but some essential oils can be unsuitable for cats in particular — we recommend keeping the candle in well-ventilated rooms and avoiding direct exposure to pets.

Most high-street candles use synthetic fragrance oils — they're cheap, scent-strong, and shelf-stable, but they can release compounds when burned that some people find irritating. We use real essential oils for scent because they're how aromatherapy is meant to work — gentler, more genuine, and connected to the plant itself.

The most loved moments are: in the evening as a wind-down cue, during yoga or meditation, while reading or journaling, or to create atmosphere before having people over. The visual ritual of lighting a candle is part of the calm — it signals to your brain that the day is shifting.

The essential oils in Calm Candle are lavender, rosemary, bergamot, ylang ylang and frankincense. During pregnancy, we recommend speaking with your healthcare provider before introducing any aromatherapy product, particularly in the first trimester.

Yes — once the wax is fully used up, the vessel can be washed out with warm soapy water and reused as a small plant pot, brush holder, or storage jar. We design our vessels to be beautiful enough to keep, not throw away.
