FAQ
Imagine a slow afternoon browsing the shelves of your favourite old bookshop. Our Vintage Bookshop Candle captures that cosy, lived-in feeling with notes of pepper, violet and patchouli. It's a little earthy, a little floral and perfect for bringing some literary charm into your home.
It's inspired by the atmosphere of a well-loved bookshop rather than the smell of paper itself. Pepper, violet and patchouli come together to create a distinctive, slightly earthy fragrance that feels like getting lost between the shelves of a favourite second-hand bookshop.
Absolutely! It's made for bookworms, avid readers and anyone who loves a cosy reading nook. Pair it with a new book and a cup of tea for a thoughtful gift that's perfect for a quiet night in.
If overly sweet or fruity candles aren't your thing, this one's for you. The pepper adds a subtle spicy note, violet brings a delicate floral touch, and patchouli gives the fragrance its deeper, earthy character. It's a lovely choice if you prefer something a little different.
Our 165g glass candle has an approximate burn time of 40–45 hours, so there's plenty of time to enjoy it while getting stuck into your latest read, pottering around at home or simply enjoying a quiet moment to yourself.
I can’t even describe how good this smells. I asked my wife to try and guess what it smelt like, and she said an old book shop. Love, love, love- completely unique and even better supporting women-owned businesses
Absolutely love this Vintage Bookshop candle — it fills the room with a cosy, nostalgic scent that feels like being surrounded by old books and warm wood tones. The minimalist design looks beautiful on any shelf, and I really appreciate that it’s vegan and soy-based. A perfect choice for quiet evenings with a book or a cup of tea.
I absolutely adore the smell of this candle, but also the no-faff packaging. Being eco-friendly and vegan is a must for me, along with being simply delightful to smell.
Hiya! Love your candles, but the vintage bookshop candle smells nothing like it should? Almost like rancid mulled wine? Very sour. Might have little fabrication mistake here?
This was bought as a gift for my birthday. It’s so tiny for the very expensive cost! I’ve not lit it yet but the vintage books smells nothing like! I hope once lit it smells nicer.
First time ordering and we have tried the vintage bookshop tin candle,it is just how you would imagine the smell to be, I hope the buttery croissant is just as good when we try 👏🏻
Smells amazing, exactly what I was hoping for!
Previously I have been hesitant to buy any "bookstore" scented candles as they can smell a bit too old and musty but this one is perfect!! Nice and cosy but still fresh enough!
Thank you!
