I’m so excited for our next two events!

This Sunday you can find us at at Barton Le Clay in Bedfordshire for their Mind, Body and Spirit Event where we will have plenty of our Scent of the month Hocus Pocus and our best selling Basic Witch Fragrance. I love these events they are just so me, full of crystals, tarot readings and wellbeing practices with a sprinkling of gorgeous gifting! 🔮

And in a couple of weeks we will be returning to with .handmade.and.vintage where we will have our full range of autumnal scents and we will be launching this year’s Christmas collection! This is always our favourite event of the year, 3 whole days with our wonderful fellow makers and in the very centre surrounded by big brands we love to see you guys coming out and supporting us independent businesses. 🩷

🌲Enchanted Forest🌲

New to our Autumn 2024 collection! Enchanted Forest is a heady wood fragrance with cedar, patchouli, pine and vetiver. With notes of lavender and rosemary on an earthy base of incense, labdanum and precious amber. I felt we were lacking an intensely woody pine fragrance, the sort that is described in all the cowboy romance books! If you know, you know! 📚I personally think we’ve done it justice, it’s dark and heady but with a slight freshness too. Available now at www.smudgyscents.co.uk

🎃BASIC WITCH🎃

It sold out before I even had chance to upload it and you’ve all been waiting patiently for it since… It’s BACK!! Basic Witch is our pumpkin spice latte scent - Sweet pumpkin pie and espresso is topped with the perfect touch of cinnamon, brown sugar and finished whipped cream. Available in our standard 220g size and our Large 3 wick 525g size which is finished off with two wax pumpkins which can be removed and used in your wax melt burner.

Available now at www.smudgyscents.co.uk

🍂Hello September🍂

Scent of the month for September is Rodeo Drive! Inspired by Pretty Woman, this sassy yet classy fragrance is rich citrusy. Layered with notes of Amber, African Neroli, Jasmine, Oranges, Lavender and Bergamot.

Paired with Yellow Jasper for providing inner strength and mental clarity. Facilitating positive communication with strangers along the way. Just like Vivian on Rodeo Drive 💃🏻
For the whole of September all Rodeo Drive candles will have 20% off! Making them £14.40 instead of £18! They last around 40hours and as with all of our products offer a strong scent throw which lasts all the way through the candle.

Shop Now at: www.smudgyscents.co.uk

Why Shop With Us?

Other than the fact that we are just completely awesome (cringe I know!) here are some of the reasons why you should reach for us instead of your usual candles and wax melts from the big brands!

We are 100% handmade! By little old me in my teeny tiny workshop at home in small batches and hand poured… no big machinery here! 🫶🏻

We make sure that all our ingredients that go into our delightful scents are cruelty free AND vegan. We want to try and help the environment as much as possible so we also use as little plastic packaging as possible. 🐰

Our scents are strong! 💪🏻 We use high quality fragrance oils which blend beautifully with our wax providing a long lasting hot and cold scent throw, meaning the first burn is the same as the last burn. 🕯️

And finally, we pride ourselves on the warm, fuzzy, happy feelings you get from our products. ✨

Our Next Event!

This Sunday you can find us over at for their Summer Craft Fair! Come over and shop our extensive range of yummy scents, beautiful dried flower wall hangings and magical crystals 🔮 Who knows you might just find your new favourite business!

Bookish Themes anyone?!?

So last week even though I was out of office I still couldn’t help but get new ideas going. As many of you guys know this year has been my year of reading, after years of never being able to finish a book this year I have so far successfully finished 13 books (with like 60 or more still to read!) slowly slowly and all that! After falling in love with all things books and bookshops this year I feel it needs to happen that we have some bookish themed candles!

These are just some of my first ideas, what do you think? Let’s chat in the comment below! 👇

“Feelin’ Hot, Hot, Hot…”

Sunny days just got better, with 20% off our website until Midnight on Monday! Plus a free pack of wax melts when you spend £50 or more!
