We believe there can be nothing more disappointing than lighting a new candle to discover you cannot really smell it. 'Scent throw' is a key aspect of our testing and development process to ensure all our products pass this crucial test.

 

Nevertheless some fragrances, by their very nature, have a stronger aroma than others. We also recognise that individual preference and sense of smell varies widely - some of us like our home fragrance subtle and in the background, others like it strong and 'in your face'.

 

As with most things in life, our favourite smells are totally subjective, as is our perception of 'too weak' or 'too strong'. 

 

To try and help you choose the right fragrance for you and your home, and so that people have a better idea of what to expect with their chosen fragrance, we've introduced a Fragrance Strength Rating for each fragrance, scored out of three where:

​

• 1 = subtle or delicate

• 2 = moderate

• 3 = strong

 

You'll find this rating within each of our candle and diffuser product descriptions.

​

Finally - don't forget that where you place your home fragrance products can affect the 'scent throw' in a room, particularly with diffusers. Some spots simply have better air circulation than others so if the scent isn't as strong as you would like, try moving it to an alternative spot. You'll be amazed at the difference it can make.
