Here's What Our Customers Think

My luxury black wax ‘Halfeti’ black soy wax candle in stunning black glass not only makes a sleek statement on our apartment sideboard, but fills the space with rich fragrance even without being lit! This was given to me at Xmas time, and months later, it’s still going strong.

A fragrance diffuser I love to display. I recently purchased the Scented Space Crushed Fig fragrance 100ml diffuser. The fragrance is perfect for my living room – the right balance of foliage and fruit and isn’t ’sickly sweet’. In a beautifully crafted bottle, I’ve clustered it with a few decorative pieces and it always attracts great comments.

Liz M.

The perfect gift – found. Really wanted an impressive gift for a special birthday and found the super large, amazingly fragrant luxury candles from Apsley and Company, beautifully presented in a gorgeous glossy black gift box with gold script. I purchased the ‘Vesuvius’ 4 wick soy candle in brown-gold leopard spot glass. My friend absolutely loved it. I also bought myself the smaller sized one!

Sarah S.

Reminds me of sea breezes on the beach. Such a superb fragrance.

Vanessa

Style and substance. My partner and I have been buying stylish Scented Space diffusers for our home over many years. There simply isn’t anything else on the market that matches these for quality, depth of classic pure fragrance and longevity. Originally purchased for my mother one Mothers Day, we soon caught on to continuous home fragrance, and this is now a must-have throughout our house in just about every room.

Ronnie L.

This candle is my absolute favourite!!

Leah

Lasting the distance. I’m always chasing large scented candles that pack plenty of punch and don’t cost a bomb. I’ve come across a winner with Abode Aroma’s Green Tea White Pear soy candle – divine! The candle really lasted and from start to finish, and the fragrance remained rich throughout the wax as it burned down (not just at the top).
