Pop in and slow down with us this weekend 🕯️🤍

Come and enjoy a peaceful browse around the shop, soak up the cosy atmosphere and discover the last of our gorgeous summer scents before they disappear for another year.

And if you’re curious about what’s coming next… you might even catch us pouring our brand-new autumn scents! 🍂✨

From fresh summer favourites to warm, comforting autumn fragrances, there’s plenty to have a little sniff of.

We’d love to see you this weekend — come in, take your time and enjoy a little moment of calm. 🤍

A little pile of Autumn greatness 🍂🤎

Eight beautiful fragrances, including some limited-edition scents available exclusively in our Autumn collection.

The perfect selection of cosy Autumn fragrances, all together in one box.

Any guesses what’s included??

One of the very first candles we ever made — Seasalt & Driftwood.

This fragrance has been with us throughout our journey and, all these years later, it’s still one of our most popular scents.

We love living close to the sea, and Seasalt & Driftwood captures everything we love about the coast — those fresh sea breezes and the feeling of being beside the water.

Some fragrances come and go, but this one has truly stood the test of time.

If you’ve never tried Seasalt & Driftwood, we highly recommend discovering it for yourself.

☀️ Summer outside… autumn on the pouring bench. 🍂

While summer is still in full swing and we’re enjoying these beautifully hot days, here at The Rhubarb Candle Company we’re already looking ahead to the change of season.

Today marked a little milestone — Pumpkin Spice made its first appearance of the year on our pouring bench. 🎃 The unmistakable scent of autumn has officially returned!

Behind the scenes, we’re busy hand-pouring our Limited Edition Autumn Wax Melt Collection, featuring eight carefully chosen autumn fragrances. Each one has been selected to capture everything we love about the season — warm, comforting scents, crisp autumn days and cosy evenings at home.

There’s still plenty of summer left to enjoy, but something very special is taking shape behind the scenes…

🍁 Autumn is coming🍁

Keep watching our social media for our launch dates — we’ll reveal the full collection very soon.

Our Beautiful Shop –

Nestled in the heart of Poundbury, Dorset, our beautiful shop is much more than a place to buy candles – it’s the home of The Rhubarb Candle Company and the heart of everything we do.
When you step through our doors, you’ll always be welcomed with a smile. We genuinely love meeting people, whether you’re visiting to find the perfect fragrance or simply popping in for a chat.

Everyone has a story, and one of the things we enjoy most is hearing them. Over the years, our shop has become much more than a place to buy candles. It’s somewhere people feel comfortable spending time, catching up, sharing life’s highs and lows, or simply enjoying a friendly conversation.

We’ve celebrated happy moments with our customers, shared in difficult times, and watched complete strangers leave as friends. Those connections mean the world to us and are at the heart of everything we do.

We believe the little moments matter. In a world that often feels rushed, we want The Rhubarb Candle Company to be a place where you can slow down, feel welcome, and know there’s always someone happy to chat.

Whether you stay for five minutes or half an hour, our door is always open. So, if you’re passing by, pop in and say hello. We’d love to hear your story, help you discover a fragrance you’ll love, or simply offer a warm welcome and a friendly conversation.

Because at The Rhubarb Candle Company, you’re not just a customer—you become part of our community.
We look forward to welcoming you to The Rhubarb Candle Company soon.

Will Wild Hedgerow make it? You’ll have to wait and see…

Keep an eye on our social media for updates and be the first to find out if this beautiful new fragrance joins our collection. 🍃🕯️
