Evoking Marie Antoinette’s neoclassical gardens, this candle is fragranced with fresh tomato leaf, citrus, fig and rose with base notes of musk and eucalyptus.
Slowly hand-crafted in Wiltshire by skilled chandlers, this candle is made with care from sustainably sourced coconut wax, rapeseed, and essential oils. Supplied in a 100% recyclable tin and with a natural cotton wick, it has a burn time of 40 hours.
