FIRESIDE CANDLE, LUCIAN

Family-owned small business Lucian hand-pours their candles right here in Canberra and use soy wax, which is biodegradable and burns with less soot than paraffin wax.

While they have a wide range of scents to choose from, we love PineGrove that mixes fresh pine with notes of soft amber and sandalwood.
