Agnes + Cat Botanical Soy Wax Candle – Windermere

A hand-poured soy wax candle with a clean, soft fragrance built on lemon, jasmine, and white floral notes, finished with dried botanicals and a wooden wick. What This Candle Does Burns for approximately 70 hours from a 350g natural soy wax fill. The fragrance is subtle and clean — light enough for everyday background burning without ever becoming intrusive.

Works well in bedrooms, bathrooms, or living rooms where you want a gentle, familiar presence rather than a statement scent. Dried botanicals embedded in the wax give each candle a distinct surface and a natural, unhurried look. Packed in an Agnes + Cat illustrated gift box — no extra wrapping needed to give it as a present.

Soy Wax, Mango Wood Wick, British Fragrance Hand-poured using natural Indonesian soy wax and a mango wood wick. The fragrance is a British blend with top notes of lemon and aqua, a heart of jasmine, and a base of vanilla and white floral. Clear glass jar, approximately 350g, made by Agnes + Cat in Sheffield.

Getting the Best Burn On first use, burn for 2–3 hours to reach a full melt pool. Trim the wooden wick to 5mm before each subsequent session. Burn no longer than 4 hours at a time, and stop when 1cm of wax remains.

Named After England's Largest Lake Windermere is at the heart of the Lake District — broad, still, and surrounded by wooded hills. The fragrance takes its character from that quality of calm and clear water: a clean lemon opening, soft jasmine in the middle, and a gentle vanilla landing that keeps it from being purely sharp or cold. It's one of the quieter fragrances in the range, and one of the most consistently liked by people who don't usually burn candles.

Size and Details 350g natural soy wax in a clear glass jar. Approximately 70 hours burn time. Each candle is hand-poured; botanical placement varies between units.

Country of origin: China. Gift-Ready A reliable, widely appealing choice for gifting — the scent is familiar enough to suit most preferences. Good for housewarmings, birthdays, or as part of a self-care gift set alongside an Agnes + Cat soap or bath fizzer.

Common Questions Is Windermere a floral or a clean/fresh scent? It sits between the two. The aqua and lemon give it freshness, and the jasmine and vanilla ground it in something softer — it's cleaner than a typical floral and warmer than a purely fresh fragrance.

Is this candle suitable for a bedroom? Yes. The Windermere fragrance is gentle enough that it doesn't interfere with sleep if you allow the room to air briefly after extinguishing the candle.

What size room works best with this candle? Medium rooms up to about 25 square metres. The scent throw is moderate — present and pleasant, not overpowering.
