LOC's Citronella & Lemongrass Candles Still Turning Heads This Summer

They have proved to be a real hit, combining a fresh, uplifting fragrance with the practical benefit of helping to keep those unwanted summer insects at bay. Made from 100% soy wax rather than petroleum-derived paraffin wax, they offer a cleaner-burning alternative. They are presented in stunning green and yellow handmade glassware from Italy, bringing together beautiful design and distinctive handmade quality. www.loccreative.co.uk/shop/summer-must-haves/citronella-lemongrass/

With the weather being relentlessly hot, dry and sunny, at least here in Kent, our Citronella & Lemongrass candles are still very much in season. We have a few remaining, so if you’re enjoying those long summer evenings outdoors, now is the perfect time to add one to your garden or patio. We’re offering 15% off our remaining candles while stocks last, the perfect opportunity to enjoy one for yourself or as a thoughtful summer gift. Once the candle has finished burning, the beautiful Italian glassware can be recycled, reused or repurposed, giving it a life well beyond the candle itself. www.loccreative.co.uk/shop/summer-must-haves/citronella-lemongrass/

Another exciting area we’ve been developing this summer is our bespoke fragrance range for wineries. We’re experimenting with grape as the base note, then carefully blending musky, woody, fruity and other notes in varying proportions to find the perfect balance. It’s been a fascinating process of testing, tweaking and refining each blend, with the aim of creating distinctive fragrances that capture the character and atmosphere of each winery. It’s an exciting project that perfectly reflects what we’re about at LOC Creative - British craftsmanship coupled with Italian design.
