The South Coast Soy Candle was born from memories that still feel close enough to touch.
Family holidays down at Bendalong. An old caravan, salty air drifting in, and kids running wild from sunrise to sunset.
It was a little chaotic at the time, sandy feet, wet towels, and endless snacks. But now I look back on those days with a full heart and a big smile.
We didn't realise it then, but we were building something special. Simple moments, full of adventure, that would stay with us forever.
This candle is my quiet nod to those times. Early morning walks to the water's edge. That fresh coastal breeze. The slow, easy rhythm of seaside days. Nostalgic, calming, and a gentle reminder to pause and breathe it all in.
Our South Coast Candle captures that unmistakable coastal freshness, clean sea air, soft green notes, and a whisper of the ocean. It's the kind of scent that instantly transports you to the shoreline, no matter where you are.
Hand-poured in small batches right here on the NSW South Coast, using premium soy wax and fine fragrance oils. Made close to the very coastline that inspired it.
Pair it with the South Coast Room Spray for an instant hit of coastal freshness between burns. Perfect for bathrooms, hallways, or anywhere that needs a breath of sea air.

Fresh, sparkling citrus that instantly captures the feeling of crisp ocean air and sunshine.
Warm Australian woods and soft musk create balance and calm as the fragrance begins to unfold.
Earthy driftwood and patchouli linger gently, leaving a comforting reminder of the coastline long after the candle is extinguished.
Shake well before each use. Spray 3-4 times into the air or onto linens for an instant refresh. Safe for use around the home.

1. Let it pool (first burn)
The very first time you light your candle, give it a chance to settle in. Let it burn long enough usually around 2 to 4 hours so the entire top layer melts right to the edges. That way, the wax ‘remembers’ to burn evenly next time. It’s a small act of patience that makes a big difference.
2. Trim the wick
Before each burn, give your wick a little tidy-up about 5mm is just right. It helps your candle burn slowly and cleanly, without getting smoky or too hot. Think of it like brushing your hair before heading out: quick, simple, and totally worth it.
3. Keep it still
Candles love calm. Try to keep them away from open windows, fans, or busy walkways. A steady flame means even melting, no tunnelling, and no leaning flames. It’s just like us really, we shine better when we’re not being blown about.
