The details

Pre-order $49 (normally $59). Ships from 31 October. Free wax melt with every pre-order.

For the Sydneysider who moved to Melbourne (and hasn't stopped talking about it).

You know that first lungful of air when you step off the bus at Bondi? The fifteen minutes when the harbour turns orange and everyone stops to look?

They miss it. They'd never admit it, but they do. So send it to them. Two candles, hand-poured in Sydney, that make any flat in any city smell like a good day at home.

Sound familiar?

  • Buying for someone far away? Nothing says "we miss you" like Sydney in a box.
  • Want something that isn't a tea towel with the Opera House on it? Same.
  • Need it to look good on arrival? It arrives boxed and gift-ready with a handwritten card.

How to get 40 hours out of it

Almost every weak candle complaint is a first burn that got cut short. Five minutes of attention on day one and the whole jar burns clean to the glass.

  1. 1

    Trim the wick to 5mm. Every time. A long wick smokes, and smoke isn’t a scent.

  2. 2

    First burn, go long. Two to three hours, until the melted wax reaches the glass all the way round. Soy has a memory. Cut the first burn short and it’ll tunnel down the middle forever.

  3. 3

    After that, two to three hours a go. Four is the limit. Any longer and the jar gets hot and the scent goes flat.

  4. 4

    Wick drifting sideways? Nudge it back with a teaspoon while the wax is soft.

  5. 5

    Snuff it, don’t blow it. Blowing flings soot across the wax and makes the room smell like a birthday party that went wrong.

Our 30-day promise

Don't love it? Tell us within 30 days and we'll pour it again in a different scent, or refund you in full. Either way you keep the first one.

What it's made of

Soy wax, a cotton wick, 8% fragrance oil, a glass jar. Nothing else. No paraffin, no dye, no lead in the wick.

Non-toxic, but it is still an open flame: flat surface, away from curtains and the cat, out before you leave the room, and stop at 1cm of wax left.

Shipping & returns

Free shipping on orders over $95. Under that it’s a flat rate calculated at checkout. Or pick it up free at Paddington Markets on a Saturday or Bondi Markets on a Sunday.

Sending it straight to them? Put their address in at checkout. We leave the prices out and write your card by hand.
