Meet The Maker
Hi! I'm Cheryl the heart and hands behind The Scented Essence Candle Co. I hand-pour, label and pack every order myself from my candle studio in Hertfordshire, usually with an iced latte in hand, playlist ON! and two cheeky, four-legged studio supervisor pups, keeping me company and scheduling the snack breaks.

Description
Azure Haze is a fresh, sunlit floral with a clean, airy softness. It opens with the crisp lift of cactus blossom, then drifts into petitgrain and jasmine for that freshly-washed breeze through open windows feeling. Finally, subtle rose petal settles in gently, giving it a smooth, delicate finish that feels effortlessly pretty.
This candle feels like a clear-sky morning when you want your space to feel bright and calm. Think clean sheets, warm sun on the windowsill, and that lovely sense of a fresh start. Light it while you reset the room, sip something iced, or simply want the air to feel lighter and a little more beautiful.Scent Notes: Cactus Blossom, Petitgrain, Jasmine, Rose Petal
