Breathe In the Bush. Craft with Soul.
Where the wild scents of Australia meet the timeless art of candle making.
This blog is your home for stories, guides, and inspiration built around the rich world of Australian botanical candles — handcrafted, grounded in nature, and deeply aromatic.
✧ What You’ll Find Here
🔬 Craftsmanship Meets Botany
Dive into detailed tutorials and experiments on small-batch candle making using native Australian ingredients — from eucalyptus to lemon myrtle, banksia to wattleseed. Whether you’re a curious beginner or an artisan in search of new notes, our content balances science with soul.
🌱 Deeply Rooted in the Land
Each plant tells a story — not just of scent, but of place. Learn the cultural, ecological, and aromatic roles that native flora plays in Australia’s identity. We honour the plants, the people, and the practices that make these fragrances so deeply resonant.
🕯️ Scent Stories & Studio Notes
Beyond step-by-step guides, we explore the emotional and sensory power of aroma: how a blend can change a room, ground a moment, or transport you to the outback, rainforest, or coastal wilds. Every candle has a story. Here, we help you tell yours.
✧ Why Australian Botanicals?
Uniquely Potent Aromas — Native plants are rich in essential oils that are bolder, cleaner, and more layered than their global counterparts.
Eco-Conscious & Local — Sourcing locally reduces carbon impact and supports native ecosystems and growers.
Rooted in Healing Traditions — Many of these scents are not only beautiful but also carry long histories of therapeutic use by First Nations communities.
From Desert to Rainforest — No other continent offers such a diverse aromatic palette in such close proximity.
