What you do

First, the fun part: smelling. The host lays out fragrance oils, from fresh citrus and green fig to amber and smoky wood, and helps you build a blend with top, middle and base notes. Then you prepare the jar, fix the wick, melt and measure the wax and pour at the right temperature for a smooth top. While the candles set, you name your scent and design a label. Everything fits on a table, so many hosts run it at the office.

What you take home

One or two candles in your own scent. They need a day or two to cure before the first burn.

Who it suits

Christmas parties, wellbeing sessions and teams of any size. Calm, creative and easy to bring to your office or event.
