Seychelles Botanical Wax Melts
If you are dreaming of white sands, warm breezes, and the Indian Ocean, these wax melts will take you there. 'Seychelles' is a soothing, luxurious fragrance that blends the warmth of exotic Coconut and Vanilla with a fresh, cooling breeze of Bergamot and Orange.
These are Botanical Wax Melts, meaning they are as beautiful to look at as they are to smell. Hand-poured in our Norfolk studio, each melt is delicately finished with a scattering of dried botanicals that float in the wax pool, adding a touch of natural elegance to your burner. It is a scent that feels like a high-end spa hotel—clean, creamy, and effortlessly relaxing.

🥥 The Scent Journey
This fragrance washes over you in soothing waves:
- 🍊 Top Notes: Bergamot, Orange, and Fresh Sea Air. The first breath: bright, citrusy, and ozonic.
- 🌸 Mid Notes: Coconut, Almond, and Jasmine. The heart: creamy, rich, and softly floral.
- 🪵 Base Notes: Amber, Vanilla, and Tonka Bean. The lingering trail: warm, sun-drenched, and comforting.
🌱 The Bishy Barnabee Difference
We believe home fragrance shouldn't cost the Earth:
Natural Wax: We use a sustainable plant-based wax blend (Soy/Rapeseed) which burns cleaner and longer than traditional paraffin.
Botanical Style: Each melt is hand-decorated with dried botanicals, ensuring every melt pool is as beautiful to look at as it is to smell.
Plastic Free: No plastic clamshells here! Our melts come in recyclable, eco-friendly packaging—perfect for sustainable hampers and gifts.
🔥 Usage Guide: How to Melt
The Tea Light: Use a standard 4-hour unscented tea light. Avoid 8-hour maxi tea lights; they generate too much heat, which burns off the fragrance oil too quickly.
Changing the Wax: Once the scent has faded, let the wax cool and harden. To remove, place the burner dish in the fridge for 10 minutes; the wax should pop out easily, ready for your next fragrance.
Safety: Never leave a burning candle unattended. Keep away from pets, children, and draughts. These melts are not edible.

✨ Why We Love This Scent

🏆 Handmade in Norfolk
Every single wax melt is poured by hand in our Norfolk workshop, using sustainably sourced ingredients and a whole lot of love.
The first burn
Light across the full width of the wick and burn for 2–3 hours until the melt pool reaches the glass edges. This prevents tunnelling — the most common cause of wasted wax on the sides of the jar.
Trim before every burn
Ensure the wick is no longer than 3–4mm before re-lighting. Once the wax is cold, pinch or snap off the charred wood. A short, clean wick gives the best crackle and prevents soot.
Safety
Never leave a burning candle unattended. Place on a heat-resistant surface, keep away from draughts and never burn for more than 4 hours at a time.
Hand-poured in small batches in Norfolk
Every candle is made by hand in our Norfolk workshop — the same care and attention that goes into every seed packet we send out. We are truly grateful to everyone who has supported this collection over the years.
