Inspiration Native Lemongrass | Grapefruit | Geranium
Scent Tangy | Zesty | Sunny Floral
Sundial is a warm, uplifting fragrance inspired by the golden light of late afternoon in the Grampians. A blend of lemongrass, grapefruit, and geranium creates a bright, sunlit aroma.
The heathlands glow in the fading light, wildflowers swaying gently in the breeze. Bees hum between blossoms, their steady rhythm a song of summer. The air is filled with the scent of sun-warmed blooms, citrus on the wind, and the warmth of the earth cooling beneath the twilight sky. Sundial is the golden hour captured in scent—radiant, joyful, and full of light.
Sundial is perfect for brightening your space with a soft, citrusy glow. Made with essential oils, it offers a refined, lingering fragrance that brings warmth and vitality to any setting.
Sundial Story
Golden light spills over a landscape awakening in its own time. The scent of Christmas bush and wildflowers rises as warmth coaxes delicate new blooms from the earth, their roots nourished by the very flames that once swept through. Sundews glisten in rocky crevices, undaunted, as skinks bask on sun-warmed stone. Fairy aprons dance lightly in the breeze, a reminder that fire does not silence the land—it sparks its next flourish.
Details
Up to 50 hours burn time.
Our Scents of Place candles are delicately scented with essential oils, creating a subtle, sophisticated fragrance that lingers gently in the background—never overpowering, always refined. Designed to complement your space rather than dominate it, these candles bring the essence of the Grampians into your home with quiet elegance.
Candle Care
- On first use, allow the wax to melt to the edge of the glass to form an even burn. This is called a memory burn!
- Always keep the candle wick trimmed to approx. 5mm to maximise burn time.
- Do not burn your candle for longer than 3 hours at a time.
- Store your candle in a cool & dry place to minimise sweating.
- Use a candle snuffer or wick dipper to extinguish your candle to avoid the smell of smoke.
Scents of Place – A Candle Collection Inspired by the Grampians’ Strength & Renewal
Nature’s rhythm is one of renewal, a quiet yet unshakable force of resilience. After more than a year in the dreaming, planning, and refining, Scents of Place was created to honour the breathtaking beauty of the Grampians—but as the landscape has changed, so too has this collection.
When we prepared to represent this region in Paris in 2023, we envisioned a home fragrance collection that would transport people to the hidden gullies, towering forests, and sunlit heathlands of Gariwerd. But in the wake of the recent fires, I have come to see these places in a new light. Not just as they were, but as they are—strong, enduring, and already beginning their next chapter.
Fire is part of the bush’s story. It is both a challenge and a catalyst, opening seed pods, enriching the earth, and making way for the next generation of growth. And just as the land renews itself, so too does the community that calls it home.
This collection has been reimagined, and reimagined again. Now, it holds even deeper meaning—reflecting not only the timeless beauty of the Grampians but also its resilience, its ability to rise again, and the quiet strength found in both nature and the people who cherish it.
Every candle in the Scents of Place collection is a reflection of this landscape, its changing seasons, and the sense of place it evokes. Hand-poured with care, these candles are more than just scents—they are a tribute to the cycle of renewal, to the land as it was, as it is, and as it will be again.
As you light a candle from this collection, you are not only inviting the Grampians into your home—you are honouring its story of resilience, of adaptation, of quiet regrowth.
Scents of Place is more than just a collection of fragrances—it is a tribute to the land’s ability to heal, to adapt, to begin again. It is a love letter to the Grampians, to the bush, and to the unbreakable spirit of the community that calls it home.
As we step forward with hope, this collection is a reminder of nature’s quiet resilience—the way life returns, slowly, steadily, with strength and grace.
Light a candle. Breathe it in. And know that renewal is always unfolding, both in the land and within us.
