Q & A with Wick'd Candles
AGHA SPEAKS WITH ALEX HAWKINS FROM WICK’D CANDLES, KNOWN FOR ITS ONE OF A KIND SOY CANDLE FRAGRANCE PORTFOLIOS.
Lily’s Garden: Take a walk, barefoot through the secret garden with flowers as far as the eye can see. Inhale the scents from the delicate petals, their intoxicating perfume lingering in the air.
HOW DID WICK’D CANDLES GET ITS START? Wick’d Candles started in a spare bedroom. I was working in a corporate job and was looking for a way to relax. Candle making’s creative process helped me to relax and take the stresses away from the day to day. I wanted to share that feeling through my fragrances with others.
The Swagman: This masculine scent includes notes of bergamot, mandarin, tobacco and sea spray.
WHAT MAKES WICK’D CANDLES UNIQUE? All our candles are hand poured here in Sydney, Australia.
