I visited Byron Bay for the first time this January during my very first trip to Australia, and the whole experience was incredibly exciting. I’m honestly so glad I decided to go — it was one of those “just do it” moments that turned into an unforgettable adventure. While exploring Byron, I came across the Beach Holiday candle and instantly fell in love with its scent. It captured the relaxed, breezy vibe of the coast perfectly. Ever since I brought it home, the fragrance has stayed in my mind, so I decided to repurchase it. Lighting this candle fills my room with that same gentle, uplifting scent that takes me right back to the laid-back atmosphere of Byron Bay. It’s fresh without being too sweet, and creates a beautiful, calming space — perfect for unwinding. For me, this candle isn’t just a scent; it’s a reminder of a special trip and the feeling of being on a proper beach holiday in Australia.

The customer service was amazing. They couldn’t do enough to help you out. I have bought a couple for Christmas presents as my daughter had one at her house and she had it on. It was absolutely beautiful. And I’ve got one for myself also.😊

Love, Love, Love! I am loving my new Byron Bay candle... sunset ambience. Wanted something with 100% essential oils, kept the bugs away, and smelt amazing... every box ticked! Within an hour of lighting my candle the first time, I was already scrolling to find what to order next. Looking forward to many more hours of amazing scents!
