There's only one place in Pembrokeshire where Scots pine and spruce grow together: two plantations high on the Preseli Hills, near the village of Rosebush.
Together, the two oils smell of winter at its best: frost, snow and cold, crisp days, with the warmth of a wood fire waiting at home.
As with all my woody candles, the scent is a little softer when it's burning than when you sniff it cold in the tin. You may know this one by its old name, Coed Preseli.
The oils
- Scots pine: fresh, resinous and green
- Spruce: crisp and clean, like cold forest air

Our ethical promise
Our ethical promise
I make every candle myself, here in north Pembrokeshire. Each one is my own sustainable plant wax blend of soy, sunflower and olive nut oil waxes, scented with my own blends of pure essential oils. That's all. No synthetic or 'nature-identical' fragrance, no petroleum or paraffin, no palm oil and no colouring. Coincidentally, they're vegan too.
I pour them into tins rather than glass because tinplate can be recycled forever, which isn't true of many candle jars. My tins are made specially for me in London, using solar power, by one of the very last tin makers in the UK.
Burning & candle care
Burning & candle care
1. On the first burn, let the wax melt right to the edge of the tin. This stops the candle tunnelling.
2. Trim the wick to about a quarter of an inch (5mm) every time you light it. My candle wick trimmers make this easy.
3. Burn for no more than two to four hours at a time.
4. Keep it out of draughts so it burns evenly.
5. Once it's cool, wash the tin and pop it in your recycling, or keep it for buttons, seeds or pens.
Never leave a burning candle unattended.
Keep it away from children, pets, curtains and anything that can catch fire.
Stand it on a heat-resistant surface. The tin gets hot, so don't move it while it's lit or the wax is liquid.
Burn it in a well-ventilated room and make sure animals can leave the room.
