Sweet Pea Candle - Rose, Lily & Apricot Candle

A delicate, pretty candle bursting with rose, lily and apricot. Poured into a pretty pastel tin with a gorgeous gold and pink glitter top, this one is as beautiful to look at as it is to burn. It makes a lovely gift too, or a little treat to keep for yourself. 

It’s a proper feel good scent. Fresh, floral and just a little bit fruity. Perfect for brightening up any room, whether that’s your bedroom, bathroom or living space.  

Sweet pea

Prized for its delicate, almost powdery floral note, often used in fragrance to create a soft, uplifting feel. It’s a scent closely tied to spring and new growth, which is part of why it’s so often used in blends meant to feel light and fresh rather than deep or heavy. That powdery quality makes it a natural bridge between sharper florals and sweeter, fruitier notes.

Rose

Soft and deeply floral. One of the most studied scents in aromatherapy, rose has a long history for calming the mind and lifting mood, with research showing it can lower heart rate, reduce feelings of anxiety and promote a genuine sense of calm.

Apricot

Rounds it all off with a gentle fruity sweetness that stops the fragrance feeling too heavy. Together they create a well balanced scent that’s calming without being cloying.

It brings a soft, almost creamy fruitiness rather than anything sharp or tart, which is why it works so well layered under florals rather than competing with them. It’s the kind of note that rounds a blend off gently, giving it a warmer finish without tipping into anything overly sweet.

Ingredients: Geraniol, Hydroxycitronellal, Linalool, alpha-Hexlcinnamaldehyde. Contains: Linalool. May produce an allergic reaction. Harmful to aquatic life with long lasting effects.

General Candle Advice

First burn

Let your candle burn for at least 1–2 hours the first time you light it. This gives the wax time to melt fully across to the edges. Skipping this step can cause tunnelling, where the candle burns a narrow hole down the centre and leaves wasted wax around the sides on every burn after.

Trim the wick

Trim the wick to about 5mm before each burn. A too-long wick causes a bigger flame, soot, and faster burning. A small pair of scissors or a wick trimmer does the job, just avoid touching a hot wick with your fingers

Burn time

Don’t burn for more than 3–4 hours at a time. The wax pool gets too hot beyond that, which can cause the container to overheat and shortens the overall life of the candle.

Keep it centred

If the wick starts leaning or drifting off centre while the wax is still soft (usually early in a burn), gently nudge it back with a cocktail stick or similar. This helps it burn more evenly.

Safety basics

Keep away from drafts, curtains, and anything flammable. Never leave burning unattended, and keep out of reach of children and pets. Extinguish with a snuffer or by dipping the wick into the wax rather than blowing, this prevents hot wax splatter and smoke.

Getting the last of it

Once you’re down to about 1cm of wax, it’s time to stop burning, the container can get too hot and the scent throw weakens anyway.
