There are many ways to count down to Christmas, but none quite like this. Our Advent Candle has become a December ritual — a small, glowing moment of calm and wonder that makes the season feel complete.
It has sold out three years in a row and for good reason: once lit, you’ll never want to do December without it again.
Light the candle for an hour or two hour each evening from the 1st to the 24th and let the festive fragrance fill your home with Christmas itself. It opens bright and joyful, like peeling an orange by the fire - citrus oils fizzing in the air, instantly uplifting. The heart glows warmer: cloves pricked into oranges, cinnamon simmering in mulled wine, vanilla scraped from the pod and soft winter florals drifting through. As it settles, the scent deepens into something timeless and comforting — mossy woods, amber resin catching the glow of the flame, a whisper of musk. Together they create a perfume that is festive, enveloping and quietly irresistible.
Every oil is chosen not just for beauty but for its aromatherapy benefits too: citrus to brighten and lift, spices to comfort, woods to ground, florals to soothe. This is fragrance as ritual — mood-shifting, heart-warming and deeply seasonal.

The Advent Candle is a highly praised December ritual, offering a festive fragrance that uplifts and soothes. Hand-poured with natural soy wax, it provides a clean, slow burn for around 50 hours. Loved for its beautiful scent, packaging, and as a perfect gift, it completes the Christmas experience.

"I recently purchased 3 advent candles. I gave 2 as gifts which my daughters loved and i am so happy with mine it smells amazing and the scent lingers in the room even the next day. The delivery company messed my delivery up, Norfolk natural living were brilliant and sent some more out straight away. I would highly recommend this company for the quality of the products and service. 5*"
"Hi, lovely candle filling my kitchen with a beautiful fragrance. Burn time followed which was 2 hours each evening but the candle finished within 12 days, the second Advent candle I decided to burn for just one hour each evening but it was a disaster. The first evening it burned lovely, but after that the candle struggled to light, the flames burned weakly, one wick constantly going out. It is now 29th December and the candle is struggles to burn each evening, even though I have tried lengthing the burn time, the flames struggle to stay lit, and I constantly have to re light during the burning time. Such a disappointment. However I am very grateful to Tillys help with is shopping experience. Wishing you all a very happy new year."
"Lovely candle, it has a very delicate fragrance which doesn't overpower the room. The numbers to circle the days is brilliant and the packaging for the candles is very imaginative and interesting 😊 😀"
"I was really pleased with the quick delivery of my orders and how carefully they were package to ensure everything was perfect. The Advent Candle and Magnesium Body Mist were gifts so will be happy to review when I have feedback, but I am thoroughly enjoying the sample coastal walks hand cream. Beautiful aroma and very moisturising. Thank you, Bella!"
"What a lovely welcoming letter to your website. The candle arrived promptly. It smells Devine and was beautifully packaged. I also had a small tin of hand cream included which was a lovely surprise. That smells so lovely I pop a bit behind each ear as well as my hands. Now I have to keep it away from my husband as he likes it too. I would highly recommend your products and definitely will be buying more in the future. Happy Christmas to the team. Regards Julianne."
"I bought this candle as a gift and had it shipped directly to the recipient. Having already had a good sniff in store in Southwold, I knew she’d love it. A gorgeous Christmassy scent that will make her house smell cosy and welcoming. And bonus, she received a beautiful hand cream tin freebie in her order which was such a lovely touch."
"One of the best scented candles I've bought, better throw and burn than some much more expensive ones too. The advent candle is great, beautiful natural scent. Can't wait to try more of these products."
"Having just lit my advent candle for the first time, the wonderful scents are just as described, creating a festive olfactory delight! And in addition to a high-quality, elegant product, the customer service at NNL is exceptional. Thank you very much!"
"My daughter received her charming “advent calendar” candle a few weeks ago. She reports that the packaging was beautiful, and she looks forward to lighting it. I am hoping that it gives her a bit of calm during the busy Christmas season. And we love to support small businesses!"
"Firstly this candle is a fabulous idea and is presented in a beautiful green vessel. Secondly the scent is so complex as it unfolds and is the most beautiful smell with so many notes. It's like a hug in a candle, which I love lighting every evening now that we are in December."
