A Buyer’s Guide To Urban Apothecary Home Fragrance
Creating the perfect ambience for any room in your home, the beautiful range of candles, reed diffusers and bath & body products from Urban Apothecary are enough to lift anyone's spirits. Proudly created in the UK, every product from the range is handcrafted by a skilled team of artisans in Leicestershire using 100% vegan and natural materials.
Whether you’re looking for your favourite new scent or the perfect gift for a loved one, here's our guide to Urban Apothecary to help...
#1 What is Urban Apothecary?
Urban Apothecary is a UK-based, vegan, luxury home fragrance brand. The brand prides itself on placing sustainable materials and ethical responsibility at its core.
Their signature product is their candles, which are made from soy wax. Not only does soy wax burn slower and last much longer than the usual paraffin wax, but it is also non-toxic. Making it much better for both the environment and your health!
Every scent from the range is inspired by a mood or memory from the brand's founder and creative force, Tajinder Banwait. From walking in woodland after rain to catching the intriguing perfumed sillage of a passing stranger. The brand's fragrance inspirations also call upon popular collective childhood memories.
Take the Wild Berry scent, for example, this is inspired by the memory of gathering juicy blackberries from English hedgerows.
As a child, I loved discovering edible treats on countryside walks. I remember the enjoyment, the juicy berries and the country air, all of which translated into a scent that’s fresh and playful, richly laden with blackberry, cassis and leafy greens.

All Urban Apothecary products are designed and handcrafted in England.
Born from humble beginnings, Urban Apothecary was created at Tajinder's kitchen table in 2011. Since then, the brand has flourished and produced a versatile and exquisite range of home fragrance products. No doubt you've more than likely seen popping up all over your IG feed.

#4 How To Maintain your Urban Apothecary Candle
It’s true that with a little care, you get more out of your candles.
- Straighten and trim your wick before lighting - about 3-5mm in length will do! This will give you a nice clean burn and prevent carbon from building on the wick.
- Extinguish with a snuffer rather than blowing the flame out, this will protect the scent.
- Burn your candle until the entire surface is liquid and reaches the edge of the jar. This is to avoid wasted wax, which will maximise the lifespan and burning time.
- Leave 1/2 inch of wax at the bottom of the container to avoid any damage.
- Use a coaster beneath your candle to protect your surfaces from getting too hot.
