What our experts say...

I love that this candle is housed in a beautiful ceramic cup (which I’ll sip tea from once the candle is done!) I really appreciated the beautiful zero waste packaging that it arrived with. Containing just one essential oil – Lemon Myrtle – this grounding, cleansing, native Australian scent fills the space beautifully. I appreciate that this candle is designed to be repurposed and that efforts are made to support and collaborate with local artists and to source locally and ethically.

–Emma Freeman

I loved the ceramic vessel that this candle was in and even more enjoyed repurposing the empty vessel into my work tea cup. I received so many compliments for my new teacup at work. In addition the candle scent was beautiful.
I really enjoy that Saide works exclusively with Australian artists. This is showcased beautifully in their ceramic candle vessel. In addition it is impressive to read about Saide’s communication with customers focused around recycling and repurposing initiatives. Their social responsibility statement sends a beautiful and artistic message around their love for the community and planet.

–Renee Carpenter

This natural candle is set in the most gorgeous, earthy coloured ceramic cup that can be later repurposed to hold your morning lattes. The gentle flame is accompanied by an authentic lemon myrtle fragrance, bringing life to the room it is positioned in. I love that Saide. supports local and ethical Australian suppliers for their oils, soy wax and wicks. Wonderfully, the brand is also working towards setting up a refill program for their entire range.
