Let customers speak for us
from 76 reviewsI was so excited to try this new scent and add to my growing collection (Sandalwood Musk and Tomato Leaf which also are amazingg), and I was NOT let down. I purchased the sample pack to test which fragrance would be best for me and Daodar smelt incredible. I've since invested in the candle and it is my absolute go to for an evening! Smells fantastic and I've had loadss of compliments!! Thank you so much X

Wonderful experience, extremely fun and the staff at the hotel were very attentive. Sari is clearly passionate about candles and that is evident with how interactive and fun the sessions are. The candles we made are amazing and smell wonderful!
Travelled from Birmingham and would do it again. Worth every penny.

I've ordered a few times from Ambustum and each scent I have purchased has been wonderful! I am thrilled with my recent addition and also tried out some of the wax melts. Gorgeously packaged products, perfect for gifts (either for others or yourself!) and from a wonderfully attentive seller. Would highly recommend!

Really loved the fragrance, packaging and general approach so far. Keen to discuss ways of working together later this year.
As ever great service and wonderful candles. You can’t go wrong.

Absolutely adored my sample! I could smell the fragrance before so even opened the lid, and the packaging was beautiful! Made me realise how much I loved sandalwood Xx

Gorgeous Candle so good I had to buy another one for myself. Nothing worse than a scented candle that doesn't smell - this one certainly does what it says on the tin. I will be back :)

This is honestly my favourite Christmas candle, it smells absolutely glorious and fills the house with its beautiful scent. The glass container and packaging are simple but elegant so it also looks great on your table.
