Bring the scent of a Highland spring in, with our fresh sweet gorse fragrance. Combining warm sweet balsamic floral and green herbaceous notes that rest on a base containing Scots pine, cedar wood and amber.
It’s said that when gorse is out of bloom, kissing is out of fashion. The reason for this saying is because somewhere in Scotland, there is always a gorse bush blooming. So, in turn, kissing will never go out of fashion. Turns out mistletoe isn’t the only plant that encourages a bit of smooching!
Although there is always some gorse in bloom somewhere, spring is when we are treated to the full effect of gorse’s vibrancy and beautiful coconut aroma. The way it brightens up the countryside with its sunshine yellow colour is an instant mood booster. Bring the scent of a Highland spring into your home, with our fresh sweet gorse fragrance. Combining warm sweet balsamic floral and green herbaceous notes that rest on a base of other scents associated with the countryside, such as Scots pine, cedarwood and amber.

Safety First
First things first, please never leave a burning candle unattended. Numerous house fires start this way each year so be sure not to be one of them!
Secondly, check your candle carefully before burning; sometimes something so simple as a tiny hairline crack in the glass can cause the jar to shatter once the candle starts burning and the glass heats up. We also recommend discontinuing use of the candle when 1cm of wax remains, as this is the point when the flame is hottest and without sufficient wax to burn there is a small chance it can cause extreme stress in the glass, leading to it cracking.
Please place candles on a heat resistant surface and always use caution when handling glasses as they have a naked flame on them and they may get pretty hot.
Lastly, burn any candles out of reach of children and pets.
Candle Care
Before lighting or relighting your candle, make sure to trim the wick to around 1cm long. Doing so will help you to get the longest and cleanest burn from your candles.
Please try and light your candle using extra long matches or a lighter to save your fingers from getting burnt. Trust us, we've burnt our fingertips enough ourselves to know better now. If you do end up using long matches for this, make sure to remove any debris as it can cause the candle to soot and also cause the glass to get extra hot.
When burning your candle make sure that it's on a flat, level surface away from any draughts so that it burns evenly. Try and allow the candle to burn for around 3-4 hours so the wax has time to melt right to the edge of the glass. This prevents the candle "tunnelling" and gets you the best value from our candles. If you do need to blow it out early and the wax pool hasn't burnt to the side, next burn don't trim the wick and let it burn long enough so next time it will reach the sides.
