Fresh Fig Candle | The Scent of the Season | Botanic & Wild

There’s one colour taking over this season: burgundy.

Deep, rich and effortlessly elegant, it has become synonymous with autumn - appearing everywhere from fashion and accessories to interiors and autumn home decor.

And if burgundy is the colour of the season, Fresh Fig is the scent of the season.

Warm, layered and luxurious, Fresh Fig captures that beautiful point between late summer and early autumn, when the evenings begin to cool and the richer colours and textures of the season start to appear.

Why Fresh Fig is the perfect autumn scent

When we think about autumn scents, it's easy to picture cinnamon, vanilla and warming spices. But autumn fragrance doesn't have to be all about traditional seasonal scents.

Fresh Fig offers something a little different.

Its combination of fresh green and fruity notes, rich velvety tones and a creamy woody base creates a fragrance that feels warm and indulgent without being overly sweet or heavy.

It's reminiscent of a late summer evening, with the richness of ripe fruit balanced by leafy green notes and soft woods.

The result is a sophisticated fruity and floral fragrance that works beautifully as the seasons change.

The fragrance notes in Fresh Fig

Fresh Fig is carefully layered, with each part of the fragrance adding something different.

Top notes: Pink Freesia, Tonka and Eucalyptus

Heart notes: Juicy Fig, Blackcurrant and Leafy Greens

Base notes: Sandalwood, Musk, Cedar and Amber

The juicy fig and blackcurrant bring the fruity character, while leafy greens and eucalyptus add freshness. As the fragrance settles, creamy sandalwood, cedar, musk and amber create a warm and luxurious base.

It's this combination that gives Fresh Fig its depth.

Rather than being simply a sweet fig scented candle, it moves between fresh, fruity, floral and woody notes, making it a versatile fragrance for the home.

A fig candle for autumn evenings

There's something particularly inviting about lighting a candle as the evenings begin to draw in.

The natural light fades, the house becomes quieter and a beautiful fragrance can completely change the atmosphere of a room.

A fig scented candle is a lovely alternative to some of the more traditional autumn candle fragrances. Fresh Fig brings warmth and richness, but the green and fruity notes keep it feeling fresh.

Light it in the living room while you're relaxing in the evening, place it on a coffee table as part of your autumn home decor, or let the fragrance fill the room while you enjoy a cosy night at home.

Fresh Fig candles and botanical soy wax melts

Our Fresh Fig fragrance is available in three different candle sizes, so you can choose the one that suits your home and the space you want to fragrance.

It's also available as our botanical soy wax melts, giving you another way to enjoy the same rich and layered fragrance.

Our candles are hand-poured in England in small batches, using soy wax and carefully selected fragrance oils and essential oils. Our botanical wax melts are also hand-poured in small batches, with botanicals chosen to complement each fragrance.

So whether you prefer a traditional scented candle or the fragrance of wax melts, you can bring Fresh Fig into your home in a way that suits you.

Why we love Fresh Fig

For us, Fresh Fig is casual sophistication.

It's luxurious without feeling overly formal, rich without being too heavy and distinctive without overpowering a room.

It's also incredibly versatile. While it feels particularly suited to autumn, the fresh green and fruity notes mean it doesn't have to disappear when the season changes.

It's the kind of home fragrance that works just as beautifully on a late summer evening as it does on a crisp autumn night.

And perhaps that's why it feels so fitting for this time of year.

Burgundy is the colour of the season. Fresh Fig is the scent.

Autumn is about changing layers - in our wardrobes, our homes and the fragrances we choose to surround ourselves with.

Burgundy brings depth and warmth to interiors. Fresh Fig does the same through fragrance.

If you're looking for autumn candles, autumn scents or autumn home fragrance, Fresh Fig is a beautiful place to start.
