Dancing Light is Lake Como in spring, the lake in its clearest season, serene and full of light. Composed by Ruth and Nic Mastenbroek, hand-poured in England, and held in porcelain illustrated by Kerry Lemon.

A green aquatic floral that captures the light on the lake. Fig leaf and an aquatic accord open it cool and fresh, then wisteria, magnolia and star jasmine bring the flowers that frame the shore in spring. A soft base of musk, cedarwood and sandalwood gives it depth without weight.

Sustainability

The 80g candle is small but built to the same standard, hand-poured in England in natural soy wax and held in the same fine porcelain. It is not part of the refill range, but the porcelain is yours to keep and repurpose once the candle is finished, a small vessel rather than something to throw away. The packaging is plastic-free and FSC-certified.
