Aquarius Candle - The Rebel
January 20 – February 18
Birth Flower: Violet & Orchid
Aquarius is properly different. Air sign, ruled by Uranus, unconventional, visionary, quietly ahead of their time. The Aquarius you know does not follow the obvious path. Has unusual hobbies. Reads the books before everyone else has heard of them. Has opinions you have not encountered anywhere else and somehow makes you reconsider yours. The candle for them needs to be exactly as distinctive as they are, properly unusual, properly captivating, completely unlike anything else in the room.
Why Black Orchid was chosen for Aquarius
Black Orchid is the most distinctive fragrance in the entire zodiac collection, and that is exactly why it suits Aquarius. The opening is unexpected and properly intriguing, with ylang-ylang, bergamot and a touch of dark truffle creating a fragrance unlike anything else. The heart deepens into the rare and unusual orchid bloom and lotus wood, properly otherworldly. The base settles into vanilla, sandalwood, vetiver and the unexpected note of dark chocolate, giving the composition a richness and complexity that no ordinary candle achieves. A fragrance for someone whose entire personality is the refusal to do ordinary.
Hand-poured in small batches in our Portsmouth studio using natural soy wax, finished with a premium unbleached cotton wick, intricately interwoven with a delicate paper thread and encased in a protective outer jacket, for a steadier flame and a cleaner, longer burn.
Fragrance notes
Top: Ylang-ylang, bergamot, dark truffle
Heart: Black orchid, lotus wood
Base: Vanilla, sandalwood, vetiver, dark chocolate
The birth flower
Violet is the February birth flower, symbolising loyalty, faithfulness and quiet wisdom. Orchid sits alongside as the more unusual bloom that captures Aquarius's distinctive quality, the rare, slightly otherworldly flower that nature took her time over and made differently from everything else. Properly Aquarian.
The perfect gift for
The Aquarius in your life who is impossible to shop for because they already have everything you would think to buy them, and would have preferred something more interesting anyway. The friend with the unusual taste in films, books, music, food. The sibling who took the unconventional career path and made it work. The partner who genuinely thinks differently from anyone else you know. Aquarius does not want a generic gift, and Black Orchid is the absolute opposite of generic. Hand-wrap option at checkout.
The details
200g hand-poured soy wax candle
Approximately 35 hours of clean, even burn
Premium unbleached cotton wick, paper-threaded and jacketed for a steadier flame
Black glass vessel, fully reusable
Phthalate-free, vegan, cruelty-free
Hand-poured in small batches in Portsmouth, UK
Hand-wrapped — perfect for birthday and zodiac gifting
The ritual
For the best burn, light it for two to three hours the first time you use it, allowing the wax to melt fully to the edges of the glass. This sets what's called a memory pool and means your candle will burn evenly every time after. Trim the wick to 5mm before each lighting. Keep the candle away from draughts, and never leave it burning unattended.
About the Zodiac Collection
Twelve hand-poured luxury candles, one for every star sign. Each candle is fragranced with the scent of the sign's birth flower, individually selected to match both the personality of the sign and the symbolism of the bloom. Hand-poured in Portsmouth, in natural soy wax, with a premium paper-threaded cotton wick. The most personal candle gift you can give, for birthdays, milestones, or simply for the person who appreciates being properly seen.
Pairs beautifully with
Pisces Candle — the cusp sign, often a partner or close friend of an Aquarius.
Capricorn Candle — the steadier neighbour, brilliant as a paired gift across the Capricorn-Aquarius cusp.
Velvet Rose & Oud Candle — for the same level of sensual depth and unusual character from our standard range.
