Smells Like Heaven is a banana bread candle that fills your home with the scent of freshly baked goodness — warm banana, golden crust, vanilla, and a touch of maple sweetness. It’s the kind of aroma that makes you want to wrap yourself in a blanket, pour a cup of tea, and stay a little longer.

This banana bread candle was inspired by those slow, joy-filled mornings when the oven hums and the air feels like a hug. Comforting, nostalgic, and a little indulgent — it’s my way of bottling that feeling of “everything is right in the world.”

The label artwork was adapted from my original painting Blooming Marvellous 6 — a vibrant portal of colour and joy. I warmed it up to echo that golden, banana-bready glow that feels like stepping into a soft cloud of comfort (see it in the image gallery!). P.S. This one’s a crowd-pleaser — especially for anyone who loves sweet, cozy, home-baked scents. You can also pair it with the matching banana bread room spray for extra deliciousness.

If you’d love to enjoy that same irresistible aroma in your kitchen, try this easy vegan banana bread recipe from Rainbow Plant Life — it’s a wonderful match for this candle and fills your home with the same golden warmth. 🍌

Each candle is hand-poured with care in my coastal Queensland studio and finished by hand with a sprinkle of gold specks and a protective varnish — my little brushstroke of magic on every piece.

Want the scent without lighting a candle?

This fragrance is also available as a matching room spray — perfect for instantly refreshing a space, layering with your candle, or enjoying the scent during the day when a flame isn’t practical. A few sprays is all it takes to bring the same beautiful mood into your home.

Sizes

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 approximately 45 hours of burn time, making it perfect for everyday enjoyment or as a thoughtful, ready-to-gift piece.

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 around 25 hours of burn time. It’s ideal if you love a lighter footprint — whether you’re travelling in a campervan, moving between rooms, or simply prefer a slightly smaller candle without compromising on quality or atmosphere.

Quick Tips

Please take a moment to read my Candle Care Guide before lighting. It’s really important for your safety and will help your candle burn beautifully, right to the end.

Crafted with Care

Artful finish: Each label is lovingly finished by hand — I brush on tiny gold specks, then seal it with a hand-applied varnish. It’s my way of adding a touch of artistic magic to every candle, since I can’t hand paint each one individually.

Handcrafted with care: Every candle is made in small batches in my home studio, using only high-quality, vegan-friendly ingredients.

100% soy wax: No blends, no nasties — just clean-burning, sustainable wax.

Natural wicks: Cotton or wood wicks for a calm, steady burn.

Phthalate-free fragrances: Gentle on you, better for your space.

Premium jars and tins: Heat-resistant and stylish enough to reuse or display.
