from 60 reviewsI received my mystery box candle and I love the scent, the candle looks and smells amazing and burns evenly, I love oleilu products

I love the mystery box! I always go for the same smelling candles and this meant I got something different and you know, I love it! Definitely recommend!!

Ordered 2 candle mystery boxes as if literally got one of each scent in my basket at one point and couldn't decide between them! The scents I got are incredible and the candles look lovely! Super super impressed 😁

Absolutely beautiful, from the smell of the candle to the pot colours. I got Tokyo Sweet Shop which is what I was hoping for and oh my god it smells so lush, it literally smells like some delicious sweets with a hint of sourness that makes your mouth water!
Instantly placed another order as I loved it so much to treat myself and a friend this time and Michaela even messaged me to ensure I didn’t get a double item (not that I would’ve minded in the slightest haha!)

The items where well packaged & I’m looking forward to trying the other items I bought via a voucher I won with yourselves
I’m absolutely in love with these handmade candles and wax melts! The scents are so cozy and fill up the whole room without being too strong. You can really tell that a lot of care goes into making them, and they burn so cleanly. They definitely create a relaxing vibe at home!
However the wax melts are so good I have just ordered more as they really help with cooking in the kitchen and they smell amazing and no mess
The products are so lovely - have tried the whipped soap, candle and purchased soap dishes as presents
I ordered two circle coasters and a tray for very last minute gifts, the service i received was brilliant and nothing was too much trouble…. Even the bespoke colour I requested for the tray! When the products arrived I was blown away by their quality. I can’t wait to give these gifts as I know the recipients will be as happy as I was to receive them.
Thank you so much!

The smell of this candle is so nice and the colour of the pot matches exactly! Can’t wait to try the St Ives one too!

The tombola was a great idea and I won twice!! I'm so happy, I got a beautiful tray and a lovely candle.

We bought the Afternoon Tea candle from Oleilu and absolutely love it. The sweet scent is warm and comforting without being overpowering. The unique pot is beautifully designed too, people have asked us about it even when it's not lit.

The owner is lovely and makes beautiful smelling candles. The pot themselves look unique and it's great that they offer refills in the same pot. Afternoon tea is one of my favourite scents and is a lovely carming aroma.

Love my products from this business, have purchased before and i am always so satisfied with them!

FAQ
What is Jesmonite?
Jesmonite is an eco-friendly, versatile material made from a gypsum powder and acrylic resin. It’s lightweight, durable, and used for making sculptures, tiles, countertops, and decorative items. Non-toxic and water-based, it’s easy to colour and mould, making it popular for both art and design projects. You can find more information about jesmonite on our blog
Are gel melts better than wax melts?
Due to the material of gel melts they do have added benefits compared to regular melts such as soy. The jelly like material means they have an easy peel when cooled - meaning you can swap your gel melts over a lot easier. Gel melts also have a higher burn melting point which allows it to burn for longer periods. It also has a slow melt rate, meaning the fragrance will last longer due to it realising slower. You can find more information on our blog
Are gel melts safe?
Yes, Gel Wax Melts are safe to use when following the manufacturer's instructions. Ensure that the wax melt is used in a suitable warmer, and never leave a burning warmer unattended. Gel wax is also eco friendly and non toxic. Its made from mineral oil and polymer resin.
How can i reuse my candle container?
Many eco-friendly candle containers are made to be reused or recycled. After the candle has burned down, you can clean out the container and repurpose it as a pen holder, or small storage jar. The candle pots we make are recyclable and you can reuse them. Click our guide to find out more.
