Anecdote Candles launched a collection of self-care candles under its new Relax and Recharge range. Created to inspire moments of self-care, the candle collection shares fragrances that are uplifting yet calming, and as ever, each product was inspired by a story.
The Relax and Recharge range includes a Self Care candle in mint and eucalyptus, as well as others like Meditation, Coffee Break. A candle called Home Cycle rounds out the collection and it's said to capture the essence of "wheels spinning on the road to nowhere."
Interest in novelty and sculptural candles increased before the pandemic but sales surged once people started spending more time at home. Candles not only provide a sense of comfort and help to make the atmosphere at home cozier, they also inspire moments of mindfulness and relaxation.
