Sustainability in every flicker
Welcome to The Scented Essence Candle Co. a Hertfordshire (UK) based candle studio creating non-toxic soy wax, scented candles and wax melts. Hand-poured using natural, 100% biodegradable soy wax and carefully chosen, clean, phthalate free fragrances for a beautiful, true to life scent, without the nasties! Everything is vegan-friendly and cruelty-free, finished with thoughtful, plastic-free packaging. And because sustainability is part of how we do business, we plant a tree with every order so you can light up your home and do a little good for the planet at the same time.
Made with as much care as the home you've created.
We spend a long time developing each scent, not just for the first impression, but how it opens up as it burns, how it settles into a room, and how it makes you feel an hour later. Every fragrance is phthalate-free, paraben-free and silicone-free, blended with 100% natural soy wax, because what fills your home with scent matters just as much as how beautiful it smells. Non-toxic isn't a trend for us, it's the whole point. These are candles you can burn with genuine confidence, gift with pride, and leave out on the shelf because they're too beautiful to put away. Every scent has its own story. We'd love for you to take your time exploring them & we think you might just find your new favourite.
Our candles are free from
CMR Substances • Hormone Disruptors • Silicones • Parabens • Phthalates • PEG • Acrylates

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.
"So delighted with my beautiful candles - they look and smell so amazing! I got Palo Santo and Wild Tuberose and the scents are really well balanced and sophisticated. The candles are really great value for the price. Im obsessed! Would be a lovely present for someone (or treat for yourself).
"Ive been following The Scented Essence's journey from the beginning. I bought a selection of the candles and could not be happier with the scents! The candles are beautiful, they look elegant and classy and brighten up my home. I love the eco friendly packaging they arrived in too!

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
