All of our candles are big hits with both men and women of all ages so you’ll have something for everyone on your list, whether they've been good or naughty!
CHRISTMAS TREE
If you don't have a real Christmas tree in your home, and even if you've used the same fake tree for years, you can still give your home that special seasonal something that will add a hint of nostalgia to your holidays.
Our Christmas Tree scented candle is a rich herbal fragrance that is dominated by the scent of Siberian pine, alongside fragrances of eucalyptus and precious woods. This Christmas candle smells so much like a Christmas tree even Santa could be fooled!
GINGERBREAD
Gingerbread? In a candle? Take my money!
Who doesn't love the smell of freshly baked gingerbread? I'm sure we've all tried a few gingerbread fragrances over the years, but we have never really found one that we liked enough to stock until now.
It's got that gingerbread scent that you love but with the spices of cinnamon and clove and notes of maple syrup, caramel and vanilla.
NUTCRACKER
Nutcracker, as the name implies, is a sweet and creamy fragrance of freshly roasted chestnuts and walnuts combined with soft, spicy nuances of white ginger, cinnamon and clove, amidst a dash of fresh coffee and vanilla.
Out of all of our scented candles, this one is right up there for those with a sweet tooth.
APPLE STRUDEL & SPICE
Apple Strudel is a traditional Viennese strudel, a popular pastry in Austria, Bavaria, the Czech Republic, Northern Italy and Slovenia. Over the years it has also become synonymous with Christmas time in many other places around the world.
Our Apple Strudel fragrance is a sweet blend of apple, vanilla and added warm spices that all come together in this classic seasonal fragrance, so good that you could eat it (but we wouldn't recommended it!).
FRANKINCENSE & MYRRH
Have you ever asked yourself what frankincense and myrrh even are? Well, let us tell you that they are both saps or resins that are extracted from trees in the Boswellia and Commiphora families respectively, and both frankincense and myrrh are prized for their alluring fragrance.
Our recreation includes a festive fruity blend with notes of lingonberries, raspberries, blueberries and tart cassis interwoven with a blast of orange, and bergamot top notes, a creamy base of vanilla adds a comforting warmth.
It even comes in a gold effect tin, to complete the three wise men's shopping list!

CHRISTMAS SCENTED WAX MELTS
An alternative way to get the smell of Christmas into your home, or maybe something more affordable as a stocking filler, is our Christmas scented wax melt collection. Available in-store and online.
We all know how difficult it can be to judge a fragrance on the strength of a description, so if you would like to experience our scented candles and wax melts and their fragrances in person then pop in and see us at our candle shop on your next visit to Birgu, where you can see (and smell) where the magic happens!
