Our Products
Our candles and reed diffusers are lovingly handcrafted in a small village near Sherborne, Dorset, using only high-quality fragrances and carefully chosen materials.
Every product we make is vegan, cruelty-free, and thoughtfully packaged, with most of our packaging being recyclable or made from recycled materials.
We know that choosing a fragrance online isn’t always easy. That’s why we’ve created “Try Before You Buy.” For just £5, you can select up to five sample sticks, each infused with your chosen fragrance oils. We’ll send them to you individually sealed in small zip-lock bags, so you can explore and discover your perfect scent from the comfort of home.

We stumbled upon your market stall in Bridport whilst on holiday in September 2021. The guys on the stall were so helpful. I bought a Sweet Orange diffuser, not girlie nor masculine. The diffuser was placed in our bathroom 2nd week in September. We are now in 2nd week in February and the diffuser is still 40% charged..I will definitely be a returning customer!

Easy peasy. I bought your Jasmine diffuser just before I moved from Shaftesbury to Scotland, I can't find anything as nice here so I'm glad I found your online shop. Easy to order from.
Don't just take our word for it...
