Bella Freud’s 1970 Candle evokes the sexily heady scent of the incense that permeated the decade of free love and rock music. The intoxicating fusion of Frankincense, Myrrh, Oakmoss and Patchouli give way to the lingering base notes of Musk, Sandalwood and Vetivert – imagine the film ‘Almost Famous’ in fragrance form, and you get an idea of its hazily hippy sensuousness. The ideal olfactory accompaniment to an evening at home with your favourite Led Zeppelin record, this makes a gorgeous gift for a laid-back lady or your uber-cool girlfriend-who-has-everything; the perfect balance of masculine yet feminine, alluring yet insouciant… swoon. What’s more, the jar itself makes a gorgeous vase, pen pot or coin collector, long after its contents have been greedily inhaled.
Having made her name as a fashion icon and taste-maker, Bella Freud’s candles are as quirky and covetable as her signature sweaters (donned by the likes of La Moss, Alexa and the lovely Laura Bailey). Housed in chic matte black glassware - complete with a pleasingly weighted ceramic lid to seal in the scent between sessions - and embossed with a graphic white stripe, this makes a stand-out addition to any hearth, bookshelf or bedside table – and the super-sleek aesthetic is only the beginning… Made with hand-poured natural wax infused with the finest essential oils and extracts, this heady candle will fill your rooms with its intoxicating fragrance – even before being lit! However, if you’re able to bring yourself to set a match to it (it’s almost too beautiful to use), it will burn for around 40 hours – transforming your home both visually and aromatically into something you’d see on the pages of ‘at home with Vogue’.

All time favourite candle
I’ve purchased this candle more times than any other, and I burn through a lot of candles. I have never come across any other candle like it. I love the combination of rose, patchouli and incense. It has an excellent scent throw filling the whole living room. It’s more of a winter scent. If only I could source the perfume….

Lovely!
Obviously this is subjective as fragrance always is but I think this is lovely. You can tell the candle is good quality as the wax does not burn too quickly. Lovely jar for once the candle is done too :)

Love this
I have never really bought high end / designer candles before but am a fan of Bella Freud clothing and style . This looks great of course , but most importantly smells amazing. I really find it doesn’t need to be lit for long for the scent to fill the room . The scent is really unusual , but in a great way . It is patchouli but with musk and sandalwood , intense but not overpowering, retro but modern . I have found it lasts well too .

My new go-to gift
There's a reason we can't keep this candle in stock - it is incredible! Not only is it in a gorgeous matt black glass with a matching ceramic lid, the black musk and patchouli fill your room with scent almost instantly. Burns like a dream and is such a good price vs the quality of the candle. I've tried them all and Bella Freud is superior. Perfect as a housewarming gift and the scent is creamy yet with a hint of green, a match made in heaven/

Quite strong.
I bought this on the back of reviews and the gorgeous styling. I think that fragrance is so subjective and it's difficult to buy online without smelling a fragrance first. For me it's ok but it's quite strong and gives me a bit of a headache.
