Discover Aphrodisiac Essential Oils Aromatherapy Candle

Hand-Poured in London using only 100% Natural Essential Oils for the Clean Burn

Black pepper, ginger, neroli and nutmeg. A warm, slightly spiced candle that turns the lights down in the room before you do. Light it for slow dinners, the evening after a long week, the kind of moment that wants a bit more atmosphere than usual. Hand-poured in London. Silk & Fire was established in Belgravia, where Liz made her first batch.

The scent

Black pepper and ginger open with a gentle warmth. Spicy, but never harsh. Neroli sits in the heart, soft and floral with a hint of honey. Nutmeg holds the base, earthy and slightly sweet. The whole blend lingers low and long, which is what you want from a candle like this.

When to light it

Date night. Dinner for two. The end of a long week with the sofa, a glass of something, and the volume turned right down.

Burn care

Trim the wick to about 5 mm before each burn. On the very first burn, give it the time it needs (around 2 hours) so the wax pool reaches the edge of the glass. That stops it from tunnelling on later burns. Always burn within sight, away from drafts, kids and pets.

FAQ

How strong is the scent?
Medium-warm. The spice has presence, but the neroli softens it. It scents the room rather than dominating it.

Will it scent a whole room?
Yes, comfortably for a normal living room or bedroom (up to 25 m² or so). For larger open-plan spaces, a pair works much better than one.

Is it gift-ready?
Every Silk & Fire candle ships in our branded gift box. Add a note at checkout and we'll pop it in.

Does it contain paraffin or synthetic fragrance?
No to both. The wax is a plant-based coconut and rapeseed blend, and the scent comes from natural essential oils only.
