Dundee Candle Works

Artisan Scottish candles and home fragrance, handcrafted in small batches using coconut wax and wrapped in natural jute, from The Home of Marmalade.

I founded Dundee Candle Works during the pandemic as a quiet way to cope—a moment of calm in the chaos. I never imagined this small idea would grow into something so meaningful.

With a background in medicine and dentistry, I’ve always cared for others—but candle-making became a different kind of care. Something slow, thoughtful, and personal. Every fragrance is designed to bring warmth and comfort into your home, inspired by familiar scents like citrus, spice, and soft herbs.

Each candle is hand-poured in small batches using sustainable coconut wax, and wrapped in a natural jute gift bag—both elegant and practical. Our scents are crafted to feel nostalgic yet refined, and our products are designed to be gifted, enjoyed, and reused.

£1 from every candle and diffuser is donated to Scottish Women’s Aid—because home should always feel safe.

Whether you're lighting one for yourself or sending it to someone special, thank you for supporting something handmade and heartfelt.
