Lit sand-coloured Lumond Amber ceramic candle with a wooden wick on a coffee table beside a knit blanket and bookAmber

okay the wooden wick crackle got me

wasn't expecting to feel emotional about a candle but here we are 😅 the amber one is warm and a bit resinous, fills the whole living room without giving me a headache like the cheap ones do. but the BEST bit is the wooden wick — it actually crackles like a tiny fireplace. lit it every night this week. the little ceramic dish under it catches any drips too which is clever. already eyeing the sandalwood.

Empty Lumond ceramic vessel reused as a plant pot with seedlings, on its saucer on a sunny windowsill next to seed paperAmber

the pot literally became a plant. i'm obsessed.

Was 100% sceptical that the 'grows into a plant' thing wasn't just marketing. It is not marketing. Once the candle burned down I cleaned the wax out (warm water + the bit of soy left wipes right off), used the seed paper they tuck in the box, and three weeks later — actual seedlings on my windowsill. It sits on its little matching saucer like a proper planter. A candle that turns into a plant. My flatmates think I'm a wizard.

gorgeous candle, but I can't justify the price

The candle itself is genuinely lovely — beautiful ceramic and the wooden wick is a nice touch. But honestly it's just too expensive for what it is. Once it's burned down you're paying a lot for a small pot of wax. I love it, but I can't justify buying another at this price.

Purchased: Medium · Sandalwood

Lovely scent, wish the medium lasted longer

Sandalwood is my go-to and Lumond's is genuinely great — creamy, a little smoky, very calming before bed. The terracotta colour looks lovely on my nightstand too. Only reason it's 4 stars: I burn it most evenings and the medium doesn't last as long as I'd like, so I'd buy the large next time. Clean soy burn though, zero soot on the ceramic.

Soft lilac Lumond Cherry Blossom ceramic candle on a bright bathroom vanity next to a towel and plantCherry Blossom

the lilac one is even prettier irl

Soft, fresh, just floral enough — I keep it on the bathroom vanity and light it when I run a bath. The lilac ceramic is gorgeous, photos honestly don't do it justice. Got compliments from literally everyone who's used my bathroom since. And no plastic anywhere in the packaging, which I really appreciate.

lovely candle, but the price stings

No complaints about the quality — it smells great and looks beautiful on the shelf. My problem is purely the cost. I'd happily make it a regular buy if it were a good bit cheaper, but as it stands it's a once-a-year treat, not something I'd restock. Two stars, and it's all about the price.

freshest candle I own, cuts through cooking smells

Zingy, green, uplifting — I keep the forest green one on the kitchen counter and light it after cooking. Works SO much better than those plug-in things. Slow even soy burn and the wooden wick is a nice touch. The green glaze with the little leather tag looks like something from a design shop. Repeat customer now.

lives on my desk, keeps the wfh days fresh

Herbal and a little salty-fresh, not sweet at all which is exactly what I wanted for working. Even unlit it gives off a gentle scent. The sage pot looks so good next to my monitor that two colleagues asked about it on a call lol. Sits on its saucer, no mess. Genuinely makes my desk nicer to be at.

best gift I've given in ages, packaging is *chef's kiss*

Ordered this for my mum's birthday and didn't even need to wrap it — recycled kraft box, a little care card, seed paper tucked inside, zero plastic. Felt way more premium than the price. She opened it on video call and actually gasped. The fact the pot becomes a planter afterwards sealed it. Will be my go-to gift now.

Purchased: Large · Juniper & Lavender

finally a lavender that isn't sickly sweet

Bought it for the lavender, stayed for the juniper — gives it a dry, almost gin-like edge that stops it being too sweet. Part of my wind-down routine now. Burns clean down to the bottom, no tunnelling, and the wooden wick crackle is weirdly soothing. Calm in a pot basically.

beautiful but pack a punch — room size matters

Gorgeous, rich, true-to-life jasmine. Only thing: in a small bedroom it got a bit much for me, so I moved it to the living room and it's perfect there. That's preference more than a fault. Quality of the ceramic and the burn is excellent, would happily buy again — just size the room to the scent.

third one I've bought. they just always land.

I keep buying these as gifts because they never miss. Made in Germany, vegan, the pot gets reused, the scent throw on the pear & freesia reaches the hallway. Easy present that doesn't feel cheap. Customer service also replied within a day when I asked about restock. No notes.
