A hand-poured soy wax candle with a soft, romantic fragrance — English rose with fresh greenery — finished with dried botanicals and a crackling mango wood wick.
What This Candle Does
Burns for approximately 70 hours from a 350g natural soy wax fill.
The fragrance is a gentle English rose — nostalgic and familiar without being heavy or old-fashioned in the way some rose candles can be.
Works well in bedrooms, sitting rooms, and anywhere that feels right for a quiet floral presence.
Dried botanicals set into the wax surface give the candle an organic, garden-picked character before it's even lit.
Arrives in an Agnes + Cat illustrated gift box — self-contained and ready to give.
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 built on soft rose, green leaf, and a faint floral-clean background. Clear glass jar, approximately 350g, produced by Agnes + Cat in Sheffield.
Getting the Best Burn
Burn for 2–3 hours on first use to form a full melt pool. Trim the mango wood wick to 5mm before each subsequent session and keep burns to no more than 4 hours. Stop use when 1cm of wax remains.
The Story Behind the Scent
Hill Top, the cottage in Near Sawrey where Beatrix Potter lived and worked, is surrounded in summer by climbing roses. The fragrance draws on that setting: a considered English garden rose, not a dense or powdery perfume, but something that feels as though it drifted in through an open window on a cool day. It's calm, familiar, and very quietly lovely.
Size and Details
350g in a clear glass jar with botanicals embedded in the wax surface. Approximately 70 hours burn time. Hand-poured; each candle varies slightly in its botanical arrangement. Country of origin: China.
Gift-Ready
Well suited to Mother's Day, birthdays, or occasions where a thoughtfully packaged, universally appealing fragrance is the right call. A good match for anyone who loves English garden scents, botanical aesthetics, or the character of the Lake District.
Common Questions
Is this a heavy or a light rose scent?
Light to moderate. It carries fresh greenery alongside the rose which keeps it from becoming thick or powdery — more like a real garden rose than a perfume counter.
Is this candle suitable for someone who finds most floral scents too strong?
It's one of the gentler florals in the Agnes + Cat range. If someone finds heavily perfumed rose candles overwhelming, this is a more restrained alternative.
Does the Beatrix Potter connection make this a good gift for children?
The fragrance itself is adult, but the story behind it adds a warm, literary dimension that makes it suitable for anyone who loves that corner of the Lake District or its history.
