Description
📖 Book Pages
🌲 Cedarwood
💜 Lavender
Inspired by quiet evenings lost to other worlds by candlelight, I’d Rather Be Reading Fantasy captures the comforting scent of old tomes and faraway lands. It opens with the nostalgic aroma of well-loved book pages, drifts through whispers of soothing lavender, and settles into a grounding cedarwood base: warm, woody, and full of story.
Hand-poured using 100% natural soy wax, this scent feels like curling up in the Shire with a heavy book and a heart full of wanderlust. The world outside fades as parchment, prophecy, and possibility unfold in every flicker.
This isn’t your average “book candle.” It’s a portal to realms unknown, a blend of magic, memory, and comfort. Think of dusty scrolls, ancient libraries, and quiet moments between chapters. A scent for when you’d rather be reading fantasy.

Petrichor Rain Scented Candle - Viral Favourite
This candle smells amazing, and it’s perfect for autumn too. It burns perfectly even which is a big deal if you’re a candle lover like me!
It's all the comfort of a chocolate croissant without the calories!
Fab products- from the artistic packaging to the beautiful candles and scents. Nothing better than the smell of coffee roasting or banana bread goodness. 👌🏻
Beautiful smelling candles, always excellent quality and stunning packaging. Highly recommend.
I love an apple scented autumnal candle & this one is just perfect with the hint of cinnamon!! Smells absolutely delicious, and I have already sent one to my sister who is obsessed with Apple Crumble!!
Beautiful candle, lovely scent, not too overpowering which is just what I like. Lovely to burn just before bedtime.
