Scented Candles and Oil Diffusers
Most of us love a home that smells beautiful. Scented candles and oil diffusers make that easy. However, each works in a different way. So, here is a simple guide to help you choose.
Why choose scented candles?
Scented candles create a warm, cosy mood. When lit, they release fragrance and soft light at the same time. As a result, they are perfect for evenings, baths and dinner parties. Good quality candles also burn evenly and cleanly. Browse our candles to find your favourite scent.
Why choose an oil diffuser?
Reed diffusers spread fragrance without a flame. The reeds draw scented oil up and release it slowly into the room. Therefore, they are ideal for busy homes, bathrooms and hallways. In addition, they keep working all day with no effort. See our diffusers for current fragrances.
Where to use each one
Use candles where you relax, such as the lounge or bedroom. Meanwhile, diffusers suit spaces where you want a steady scent. For example, an entranceway or bathroom works well. Many people use both.
How to choose a fragrance
Think about the mood you want. Fresh, citrus scents feel bright and lively. On the other hand, warm vanilla and woody notes feel calm and cosy. Floral fragrances are a lovely middle ground. If you are unsure, visit our shop and test a few scents first.
Candle care tips
- Trim the wick before each use.
- Let the top melt evenly on the first burn.
