Botanica Fine Fragrance Candle
Inspired by an English Garden, Botanica is years of memories, experiences, and joy captured in scent. A walk through a vegetable garden, the perfume of a rose being carried by a breeze, the earthiness of the produce being warmed by the sun. Botanica will transport you to the finest Cotswold landscape to experience the pleasure of a botanical garden in bloom.
We worked with a Cotswold-based perfumer to capture this scent in candle form so that you too can experience these moments for yourselves, wherever you happen to be in the world.
The Botanica scent is a blend of Rose, Marjoram, Pimento, Violet, Patchouli, Musk and Ambergris.
Made in the United Kingdom with natural wax. 40 burn hours.
Customer Reviews
Such a wonderful scent and the packaging is gorgeous as is the botanical print included in the sale. I'm very pleased with my purchase!
This is a fresh, clean, beautiful home fragrance. So glad I purchased it. Nicolas’s products are all lovely. Hope he ads more to his online store.
Strongly scented which I like as opposed to very little scent when lit.
I just received my candle and immediately had to write a review. It came expertly packaged (I live in the US so I appreciate the protection since it had a long way to go in the mail), the candle packaging is gorgeous and obviously well thought out, and the scent is to die for. So glad to have a Nicolas Fairford product in my home.
This is the best smelling candle I’ve ever purchased in my entire life. I’m planning to purchase more for gifts!
This is my third time buying the Botanica Fine Fragrance Candle and it won't be my last time.
The box is beautifully decorated and the scent is amazing.
It is the most fabulous smelling candle,
I have been to England and it does smell
Like a English garden
Hi Nicolas, I love the scent of this candle. I wanted to also ask if you would also have a more masculine scent (sandalwood blend of notes?)
Love your YT channel and all the best.
Jarrod
Bought this as a gift and have been storing it in a spare bedroom. Every time I open the door and walk into that room it's like walking into a meadow of fresh flowers! She's going to love it!
So fragrant and beautiful scent.
Candle Care
Avoid Tunneling
To ensure that your candle doesn’t tunnel, the first time you light it be prepared to let it burn until the entire top layer of wax has melted across. Each time you burn the candle after this, it will burn evenly. This is also known as candle memory. If you extinguish the flame before the top layer has melted fully across, it will burn this way each time and the unmelted wax around the edges will create a tunnel, which is essentially wasted fragrance.
Always trim the wick
To prevent your candle from smoking, always trim the wick before each use. This will also keep your candle clean and free of residue.
Dip to extinguish
It always best to extinguish the flame by dipping the wick into the melted wax. When you blow out a candle, the wick continues to burn for a short while, causing it to smoke. Instead dip the wick into the wax to extinguish, and then pull back out so that you can light it next time. I usually do this with the end of a used matchstick, but you could use tweezers, or a blunt knife.
