Earl Grey & Cucumber Scented Candle

Imagine a traditional British afternoon tea in a sun-drenched conservatory. 'Earl Grey & Cucumber' captures that exact moment of refinement and relaxation. It is a playful, elegant fragrance that blends the zesty, bergamot-rich aroma of Earl Grey tea with the cool, crunchy freshness of cucumber and a hint of sweet vanilla.

This is a scent that feels high-end and polished. Enhanced by a sustainable FSC-Certified Wooden Wick, it creates a gentle, soothing crackle as it burns, adding a layer of acoustic calm to the sensory experience. Hand-poured in our Norfolk studio using 100% natural soy wax, it provides a clean, long-lasting burn that fills your home with an air of luxury.

🍵 The Scent Journey

This fragrance is fresh, aquatic, and beautifully balanced:

  • 🍏 Top Notes: Apple, Bergamot, Jasmine, and Aquatic notes.
    (The first hit: bright, zesty tea and crisp freshness.)
  • 🥒 Mid Notes: Cucumber, Angelica, and Davana.
    (The heart: cool, green, and slightly herbal.)
  • 🪵 Base Notes: Vanilla, Beeswax, Cedar, and Musk.
    (The lingering trail: sweet, comforting, and sophisticated.)

🔥 Why Choose a Wooden Wick?

We have swapped traditional cotton for natural wood to elevate your candle experience:

  • 🔊 The Crackle: The gentle snapping sound mimics a miniature log fire, adding an acoustic layer of relaxation to the scent.
  • 💨 Better Scent Throw: The wider flame creates a larger melt pool faster, releasing the delicate tea notes more effectively.
  • 🌍 Sustainable: Our wicks are sourced from FSC-certified mills, ensuring responsible forest management.

🕯️ Usage Guide: Wooden Wick Care

Follow these tips to get the best crackle and burn time from your candle:

The First Burn: Light the wick across the whole width. Let it burn for 2-3 hours until the wax melts to the glass edges. This prevents "tunnelling" and ensures you use all the wax.

The "Pinch": Before re-lighting, the wick must be short (3-4mm). Wait for the candle to cool, then simply pinch off the black charred wood with your fingers. This keeps the flame clean and steady.
