Inhale Exhale is a lime candle created as a gentle reminder to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with yourself. With an energising burst of lime and mandarin softened by warm sandalwood, this scent feels refreshing yet grounding ā like taking a long, steady breath right when you need it most. Light this lime candle whenever your space (or your mind) needs a moment of clarity, calm, and quiet focus.
The soft yet vibrant label artwork reflects the clarity and balance this fragrance brings. I wanted the design to feel like a moment of stillness ā luminous, airy, and spacious. This candle is inspired by those tiny pauses in the day where you stop, breathe, and remember that simplicity is often the thing that brings you home to yourself.
If youāre curious about why lime feels so energising and uplifting, hereās an interesting read from Healthline on the benefits of lime essential oilĀ ā it explains why this bright, citrus note naturally boosts mood, refreshes the senses, and brings that crisp clarity this candle is known for.
Handcrafted with care and a sprinkle of artistic magic in my coastal Queensland studio.

ā„Ā Signature Candle
My most generous size, designed to feel both elegant and special. It comes in a matte white glass jar with a reinforced base, finished with a white wooden lid and presented in a beautiful gift box. With 270 g of wax, it offers approximatelyĀ 45 hours of burn time, making it perfect for everyday enjoyment or as a thoughtful, ready-to-gift piece.
ā„Ā Large Tin Candle
A smaller, more portable option, created for flexibility and ease. Housed in a matte white vessel with a matching lid, it offers aroundĀ 25 hours of burn time. Itās ideal if you love a lighter footprint ā whether youāre travelling in a campervan, moving between rooms, or simply prefer a slightly smaller candle without compromising on quality or atmosphere.
