In recent years there has been much talk about the safety of the wax used in scented candles for the home suggesting the artificiality because of the paraffin and other added chemicals is dangerous for our health.

Holistics London’s scented candles offer a more natural alternative to that of more mainstream scented candles. I tried their Cedarwood + Spices scent and was immediately hit by a wave of nostalgia. It perfectly encapsulates the wintery smells of childhood. Not only that but I was struck by how quickly and completely the warm scent filled the room. It also feels good to be supporting a local business with the candles all designed and poured in London.

Looking through the lists of options for my next scented candle fix I noticed the variety was incredible. From fresh summer scents like Grapefruit + Rosemary or Peppermint + Sandlewood to soft floral fragrances like Bergamot + Wildflowers and Lavender + Patchouli. I am excited to try out their different fragrances but the warm Cedarwood + Spices will probably stay a favorite as it truly transports me despite the quarantine.
