Our Story
“Scent is such a powerful sense and I hope my distinctive blends take you on your own journey.”
How it all started
I founded Candleman, having made candles for many years, receiving exceptional comments from friends and family. People kept telling me that I should share my artisan passion for blending uniquely crafted fragrances, which are all hand-poured into my candles.
Our fragrances are blended with precision, inspired by warm, earthy, botanical tones to evoke happy memories or create new ones.
All our products are hand poured and cured in the beautiful countryside of rural Herefordshire. Full of botanical inspiration and making sure we’re as eco-friendly as possible to ensure we help preserve the nature around us. I try also use other small British artisan companies in the materiels we use to help create our bespoke products.
Philosophy
Candleman is different; we use only natural plant-based waxes and unbleached cotton wicks in all of our candles. Candleman candles contains the maximum amount of fragrance or essential oils that a plant base wax candle can take, around twice as much as most mass-produced candles.
I’ve taken great care to perfect my candle-making method, hand-pouring wax at the optimum temperature to ensure each candle I produce brings warmth, spirit and memories to your home.
Each candle is carefully handmade from the beginning of the process to the end. We’ve a busy online business with amazing customer feedback. We always dispatch your candles the same working day. We are stocked in boutique retailers up and down the U.K, and across Europe too.
We’re always creating and developing new and exciting fragrances, using natural waxes and avoiding plastics in any of our day to day running of our small business. Even our packing materials have dissolvable peanuts; simply run them under the tap and watch them disappear.
