Henley Woods
The English countryside, captured in a candle.
There's something quietly extraordinary about the way Henley Woods works. Starting with the most beautiful florals, waters, fruits and woodland notes, they transform them into natural candles, lotions and body products that smell, quite simply, like somewhere you'd very much like to be.
Inspired by the enchanting market town of Henley-on-Thames — its autumnal woodlands, meandering river, vibrant summer meadows and the hidden treasures of local hedgerows — every product is crafted using 100% natural ingredients combined with fine fragrance. Nothing harsh. Nothing unnecessary. Just beautifully made things that feel as good as they smell.
The hand-blown glass candle cloches are particularly worth noting — an elegant nod to the tradition of displaying candles under glass to protect their perfume, until you lift the dome and release something rather wonderful.
A gift that wraps beautifully. A treat that lasts. A little piece of the English countryside, wherever you happen to be.
