Very cute set, totally worth it. got it as a Christmas gift and my friend adored it!
Amara is my absolutely favourite, I absolutely love this
Always getting compliments how amazing I smell. Will forever purchase Amara from here on out.
Three generations joined together to make candles. We all loved the experience of smelling the beautiful fragrances and coming up with our very own scented soy candle. What a wonderful simple workshop, we had the best time! Took home a candle and great memories.
Thank you
Spicy, fresh, so good and not overpowering. Love it!
Just started wearing it and already getting lots of compliments. I've also loved layering this with some of my other perfumes.
Loved the whole experience. Haya was super nice and did such a great job of guiding us through out the process .
The scents were amazing and loved the finished products with our own labels.It was a cute date with the girls and we really had a great time .
Would highly recommend!!
My friends and I had a private workshop and it was so much fun. It was affordable, Haya explained everything so well and was very helpful in choosing what scents went together. I and my friends had such. great time and I would recommend everyone to try if it fits in their budget!
I love my new top.
I had seen it a few weeks ago & the colours & texture drew me back to buy it as a reward for some work done.
Wore it out that night & had so many lovely compliments.
My friend and I had a great time making candles. The workshop was fun and informative, very reasonably priced. I highly recommend it for anyone wanting to get a bit creative
Lovely evening making candles with friends - so many amazing scents to create. The shop is also stocked with so many wonderful products. The jewellery & ceramics and perfumes were beautiful. Will definitely return ❤️
My cousins and I came to do the candlemaking workshop in November and we loved it! I made a candle and a diffuser while I was there and I’m in love with both scents. It was so fun to be able to name our creations and have personalised labels printed on them - definitely a great idea for gifts or just a fun day out:)
Great perfume and excellent price point. lots of gorgeous things in this shop.
Gift An Experience!
Opt for slow-gifting this Christmas by gifting an experience! Something that you know they would love and would not create waste. From creating their own herbal tea, candle, diffuser or block printing their own tote bag. There are so many options for you to gift this Christmas!
