Smoke Candle
I’ve tried a lot of different candles now and these are still the best - great value as well if you get a refill, and the service is second to none!

Exquisite scents across the incense range are so special and way ahead of other brands I have tried over the years.

Lesley creates the most gorgeous intentional scents. I love the fresh uplifting scents of Arcana.

Lucy, Bristol

Wild Garden, Herbarium Incense
I really love using incense at different times and in different seasons. But I’m very picky about ingredients & scent! I discovered Essence + Alchemy’s incense a few year’s ago in a little shop in Glasgow & I’m so glad it’s available online. It’s the purest most delicious most wonderful incense! I so enjoy Herbarium and Wild Garden and am looking forward to trying the rest of the scents when I can stop obsessing over the ones I already love! I’ve tried incense from all over the world and this is one of my absolute favourite brands.

Tina, London

Dusk, Wild Garden, Roses Candles
If you’ve ever come to this beautiful site and wondered why most of the products are always sold out, I put my hands up, I’m the culprit! But rest assured, they’re not always for me. I buy them as treats for wonderful people who deserve these gorgeous treasures. Thank you Lesley again for being so accommodating and for creating such wonderful products that have been gifted far and wide.

Caroline, East Sussex

Sol Bathing Salts
The bath salts are beautifully fragranced and very moisturising. The skin on my feet is so much softer now.

Vivien, Malvern

Autumna Candle
I ordered the Autumna porcelain candle and refill. I love them, they smell incredible and the porcelain holder is gorgeous. I liked them so much I've ordered more candles in Smoke ready for winter.

Phil, Isle of Wight

We were given a Roses candle last Christmas and couldn't wait to get another one.

Gail, London

Smoke & Dusk Candles
Absolutely love your products! Best candle scents I’ve ever experienced and am an avid candle user from many high end retailers. Nothing compares to yours. Hands down the best!

Scoopiter, Retford

Wild Garden Candle
A modern take on a fresh/floral scent. Evocative of greenery, new flowers and something slightly mystical in the background! Along with Roses, this is another of my favourites.

Newlyn, Santa Fe

Dusk & Wild Garden Incense
I wanted you to know that I haven't even opened the box of treasure from you yet - I haven't needed to, as it is sitting in my home office and smells incredible, even all packaged up. I can imagine the delivery person sniffing the box, as I had my whole family do. Every time I light what is left of my last order of Dusk incense, my family members appear and say how wonderful it smells and can I light another stick? We so appreciate your work.

Elizabeth, West Sussex

Luna Bathing Salts
Such Beautiful products, I purchased for Christmas gifts but I did buy some Luna bath salts for myself as the scent is gorgeous.
