Scents: Earl Grey · Lavender · Apple Blossom · Hand-poured in: North Carolina, USA · From: $11.99 (wax melts)
This london fog candle is a tea shop with the windows fogged from the inside — earl grey steeping past strong, lavender in the steam, and apple blossom coming off a tree somewhere out in the wet.
Light it for Victorian mysteries, rain-soaked literary fiction, and any chapter where somebody arrives at a door with their coat completely ruined. Like every Aarka Origins candle, it is truly handmade: hand-poured in small batches in North Carolina from 100% pure soy wax, with no paraffin and no blends.
EARL GREY · LAVENDER · APPLE BLOSSOM
Fragrance family: Tea & Floral
A true london fog is tea and milk, but milk notes muddy quickly in soy. This blend takes the softness from lavender and apple blossom instead, so the bergamot in the earl grey stays clear and bright the whole way through the burn rather than being smothered. Hand-poured in small North Carolina batches from 100% pure soy.
It does — the bergamot-forward earl grey note is the spine of it. The lavender and apple blossom soften the edges, but the london fog candle stays recognisably a cup of tea rather than a perfume.
It is one of the most reliable gifts in the range for a tea-and-mystery reader, and it sits well next to a teapot on a shelf. Wax melts from $11.99 make it easy to pair with a tin of loose leaf.
It is. London Mist is hand-poured in small batches at Aarka Origins' North Carolina shop from 100% pure soy wax — no paraffin, no wax blends, no dyes, and a lead-free cotton wick. The fragrance oils are phthalate-free, vegan, and never tested on animals.
Trim the wick to 1/4" before each burn and keep burns to about two hours at a time for the cleanest, most even melt pool. Browse the full book lover soy candle collection.
Nice candle, fast shipping, nice fragrance.
I gave these candles as a gift to my brother and he loved them. Highly recommend!
A great candle, quality in both scent and style
This wonderful candle smells of lavender and tea first, and as it burns you can smell the honey apple goodness! Not too fragrant, but just the perfect amount of scent. I would also recommend this to folks who like great quality candles that aren’t overpowering. Thank you!
Candle arrived quickly and was well-packaged. Smells lovely!!!
