Creamy Vanilla Meets Exotic Orchid: A Rather Splendid Escape
Picture this: you've just walked through the door, slightly frazzled from the day, and suddenly the air smells of Madagascar vanilla and delicate orchid blooms. Rather marvellous, isn't it? Our Sweet Vanilla Orchid Candle does precisely that, transforming your room into a proper sanctuary of floral luxury without any faffing about.
Why Choose Our Sweet Vanilla Orchid Candle
The Fragrance That Actually Lingers: We've paired creamy vanilla with exotic orchid florals to create something genuinely sophisticated. It opens with comforting sweetness and develops into an elegant heart of florals that's both indulgent and rather refined. Not the sort of thing that disappears after five minutes.
35 to 40 Hours of Proper Burning: At 180g, this candle burns beautifully for weeks, not days. That's roughly five weeks of consistent, luxurious scent throw if you're burning it sensibly. Quite the investment in your home's fragrance future.
Handcrafted in Britain: Made in our Kidderminster workshop using 100% natural wax from sustainably sourced organic soy and rapeseed. We've spent 35 years perfecting the art of candle-making, and it rather shows. Our coreless clean-burn technology ensures even burning and superior fragrance throw, every single time.
Clean, Even Burning Every Time: Premium cotton wick and our proprietary coreless technology mean no soot, no tunnelling, no mysterious dark patches. Just straightforward, beautiful burning from start to finish.
Product Details
Capacity and Burn Time: 180g candle providing approximately 35 to 40 hours of luxurious burn time, making it ideal for living rooms, bedrooms, or any space where you'd like consistent, sophisticated scent.
Wax Composition: 100% natural wax blend from sustainably sourced organic soy and rapeseed. Proper British craftsmanship, nothing dodgy about it.
Wick Technology: Premium cotton wick with our coreless clean-burn technology for optimal performance and superior fragrance throw.
Aromatherapy Notes: Vanilla promotes comfort and relaxation while orchid adds emotional balance and exotic elegance. Together they create a therapeutic fragrance that's both indulgent and rather uplifting.
Making the Most of Your Candle
Allow your first burn to reach the edges, which takes about 2 to 3 hours. Trim the wick to 5mm before each use and never burn for more than 4 hours at a time. Keep away from draughts and discontinue use when 5mm of wax remains. Rather straightforward, really.
Treat yourself or gift it to someone who appreciates the finer, more fragrant things in life. This is the sort of candle that makes people genuinely grateful you remembered them.
SHIPPING + RETURNS
THE RATHER IMPORTANT BITS
This rather lovely piece ships directly from our brand partner - we work with independent brands who are absolutely brilliant and work frightfully hard to create beautiful things.
SHIPPING DESTINATIONS
Now, here's the thing - our wonderful brand partners ship to lots of different places, but not all of them can ship worldwide.
Some are brilliant at international shipping, others prefer to keep things closer to home.
At checkout, you'll see exactly where this particular brand can send your goodies.
We're terribly sorry, but shipping costs do vary rather wildly depending on where you are in the world. The exact figures pop up at checkout - no nasty surprises!
RETURNS
You have 14 days to return items.
Now, we absolutely adore our brand partners - they work incredibly hard and we do try to support them as much as we possibly can. So I'm rather afraid we have to pass the return postage costs back to you. Frightfully sorry about that!
🌍 PLEASE CHOOSE THOUGHTFULLY:
Our wonderful partners put their hearts into everything they make.
Ordering multiple sizes to try at home is rather hard on our planet and makes things jolly difficult for these brilliant independent creators.

We Have Lots More Like This.........
Hello, we are Sostter....
Sostter began, as all good ideas do, with a lively conversation and a shared sense of frustration. Why had the world of independent design become so serious, so samey, so… beige? Where was the spark, the imagination, the sheer joy of discovering something that made you stop and stare?
We dreamt of a marketplace that celebrated difference — where curious minds could explore a world of independent brands, design-led makers, and thoughtful artisans. A space that felt exciting, human, and beautifully imperfect.
Today, Sostter brings together remarkable people and their creations — from London to Lausanne, Brooklyn to Berlin — uniting makers and discoverers through craftsmanship, creativity, and conscience. Every object tells a story, and every purchase supports an independent brand doing things differently.
This is just the beginning. But enough about us — step inside, explore our world, and see what catches your imagination.
Giving Back
We’re proud to support Sutton Night Watch, a grassroots UK charity making a real difference in the lives of those facing homelessness. Through regular donations of stock, supplies, and essentials, we back their mission to offer warmth, dignity, and practical help to anyone in need — right where it matters most.
