Midsummer | Lavender, Geranium & Neroli Literary Candle
Step into a moonlit Athenian forest where the line between reality and enchantment blurs. Our Midsummer candle is a botanical tribute to Shakespeare’s most beloved comedy ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’.

The Globe | Sandalwood & Vanilla Earthy Literary Candle
Transport yourself to the standing yard of the world’s most famous playhouse. The Globe is an atmospheric tribute to the "Wooden O" itself. Inspired by the sun-warmed timbers of the Elizabethan stage and the sweet, resinous air of a packed theatre, this candle is deep, grounding, and timeless.
Rich, creamed Sandalwood mimics the scent of aged oak and sawdust, while a base of Warm Vanilla adds a layer of sophisticated comfort—reminiscent of old parchment and the flickering candlelight of a 17th-century performance.
