Description

Freesia belongs to the Iridaceae family, native to South Africa and naturalised across temperate zones. Named after the German botanist Friedrich Freese, the flower has been cultivated for its clean and persistent floral character. This glass candle is built around a freesia accord of musk, violet, centifolia rose absolute and iris. From the Firenze 1221 collection.

How to use

Place on a heat-resistant surface before lighting. On first use, allow the wax to melt evenly across the entire surface. Trim the wick to 3-5 mm before each use and keep it centred. Do not burn for more than three hours at a time. Extinguish with a candle snuffer. Never leave unattended, and do not move while lit or while the wax remains liquid.

Grace Z. ★★★★★

The moment I lit it, the violet and rose absolute came through so softly I actually stopped mid-task to just breathe in the room. The glass vessel feels substantial too, not flimsy like some others I've tried.

Sebastian ★★★★★

I was a little worried the freesia would get lost in the iris and musk, but it's surprisingly fresh and bright for a glass candle. The centifolia rose adds just enough warmth without turning floral-heavy. Burns evenly too, which I always appreciate.

Charlotte C. ★★★★★

The violet and rose absolute layers come through beautifully under the musk, and the iris keeps it from being too sweet. I've had it burning in the hallway for three evenings now and the scent still feels fresh, not cloying.
