Parkminster Large Votive Candles are crafted entirely from plant-grown soy wax and natural fragrances blended in-house. Each candle is made to order, ensuring it is uniquely created just for you.

Our fragrance collection spans citrus, floral, earthy, fresh, woody, herbal, and energising aromas, offering a wide variety of scents for different moods and spaces. Because every candle is poured and finished by hand, minor variations in the wax or surface naturally occur, reflecting the care and attention in the production process.

These large votive candles also demonstrate our commitment to eco-friendly practices: the soy wax is plant-based, and all packaging is plastic-free, recycled, and recyclable. This ensures the candles remain sustainable and maintain the natural qualities of soy wax, providing a refined, clean-burning experience in your home.

Parkminster’s natural soy wax candles are crafted entirely from plant-grown soy wax, providing a clean, renewable, and environmentally conscious base. Each candle begins with the careful blending of essential oils and natural fragrances in our Fragrance Workshop, allowing distinctive scent profiles to be developed before being combined with the soy wax.

Once fully blended, the wax mixture is poured into its container. Depending on the characteristics of the fragrance, this may be done in a single pour or in two stages to prevent surface imperfections such as dipping, cracking, bubbling, or frosting. After pouring, the candles are left to cool and set for up to 24 hours, during which the wax solidifies naturally, retaining its scent and texture. Each candle is then hand-labelled, reflecting the individual attention given at every stage.

Because every step is completed by hand, each Parkminster candle is unique. The combination of plant-based wax, individually blended fragrances, and careful pouring techniques ensures each candle is distinct in both appearance and aroma, while maintaining consistent burn quality and fragrance performance.

The decision to use soy wax and natural essential oils is guided by both sustainability and performance. Soy wax, derived from soybeans, is biodegradable and renewable, and its by-products are often used in agricultural cycles. It burns cooler and slower than paraffin, producing minimal soot and helping to maintain cleaner indoor air. Paraffin wax, in contrast, is a petroleum by-product, non-biodegradable, and associated with higher soot and volatile compound emissions.

By choosing natural soy wax, Parkminster combines artisanal craftsmanship with environmental responsibility. Each candle embodies the care of handcrafting, the purity of plant-based ingredients, and the subtle charm of a clean, sustainable fragrance experience suitable for any home.

Large votive candles are well suited to medium-sized and larger rooms, where their increased wax volume and extended burn time allow fragrance to disperse evenly throughout the space. When placed in living rooms, dining areas, or open-plan interiors, a single large votive can provide a consistent background aroma without becoming overpowering.

Positioning plays an important role in how fragrance is experienced. Placing a large votive candle away from draughts and at a stable room temperature helps maintain an even burn and allows the fragrance to develop gradually. In larger spaces, some people choose to place candles at opposite ends of the room to create balance, while in smaller areas a single candle may be sufficient.

Large votive candles can also be used alongside other candle sizes to build layered scent profiles. Combining complementary fragrances can subtly enhance a room’s atmosphere while allowing individual notes to remain distinct. Because soy wax burns more slowly and at a lower temperature than paraffin, these candles offer a steady release of fragrance over time rather than a strong initial burst.

As with all candles, allowing the wax to melt fully across the surface during the first burn helps promote an even burn in future uses. This approach supports both performance and longevity, ensuring the candle continues to fragrance the space consistently throughout its life.
